Sir, Marv Levy had this right, mutatis mutandis: you score a touchdown and toss the ball to the nearest official. You act like you've been in the endzone before and it won't be long before you're in there again.

One thing that will help turn the tide in the swing state of WI is this weekend’s game at Lambeau getting canceled because the Panthers couldn’t get here.

Me too, both at my current and former gig(s). People who propose zero-notice, zero-prep brainstorming about department vision and mission, people who try to undo decisions made at last week's meeting, it just goes on and on...

1) Andy weird/silly/psychedelic song
2) Andy regular-guy-in-love song
3) Colin singing a strident political banger

It's like a perfect distillation of what XTC does.

This is awesome, and reminds me of the composition prof from music school who assigned each student to hand-copy one page of the score of their favorite orchestral piece onto large-format staff paper.

Opening three tracks on this are one should be part of every "best three-song-run on an album" convo.

[Of course, that convo begins with "the best run is Thriller/Beat It/Billie Jean; let's discuss the potential silver medalists."]

They get to do it from a posture of learned/fake helplessness, and learned helplessness has [sadly, maddeningly] been one of the most effective political tools of this century.

This runs parallel to my Grand Unified Theory of Elvis Costello: everything you need to know about EC is contained in the fact that anyone else writing "Radio Radio" would write:

"I want to bite the hand that feeds me,
I want to bit that hand so bad"...
