Nothing and Some More

La nuit dernière sur Arte, y'avait un reportage sur les paysans et ils soulignaient une fois de plus le triste paradoxe: "La qualité a un prix, et on peut pas avoir de la qualité instantanément" (la rêgle des 10000 heures... de Michael Shermer) People want a quick fix, the simple answer, how they can improve their love lives and their health.

Y'avait aussi Dom Juan en flic fatigue sur la Une. Et Soeur Clotilde dans sa deuche sur la Trois. Ce soir c'est la dernière de Vive l'été. Et demain, y'a Max qui arrive enfin sur les écrans hertziens. Et Star Academy qui commence. Et Loana qui découvre Paris.

Exercising my Fair Use, aka while making another MP3 cds (there are handy for globetrotting), I re-listened to Do You Want More ?!!!??! by the Roots. YES, I DO.
Listen to some sample (Liquid Audio only). (The reviews for The Roots Come Alive are enthusiastic...)
So many CDs, so little time.
