We've reached the zenith of our careers. As fate would have it, a track from our first CD, A Penny for Your Brain, was used in an episode of the Margaret Cho Show. And it double-turns-out that this particular episode (Korean of the Year) is available for FREE on the ol' iTunes music store this week...

Hard to believe, isn't it? Another year has slipped through our fingers and toes. The murky beast we call “time” has feasted upon the cooler months, leaving nothing but the dog days and we once again find ourselves face-to-face with an awards show...

Yeah yeah yeah, it's another local music awards thing, and it's with mixed feelings that we post this link. Now, we love the fine folks at Quick, we really, really do. They've been nothing but kind to us over the years and we can't thank them enough. But, potential voter, be warned...

Three points:

1.) The voting mechanism is a nightmare
2.)...but I voted Shibboleth, anyway
3.)...despite your using "begs the question" improperly.
