Excellent strings, good price
You can't go wrong with Martin strings. Plus, you save the gas it would take to drive to the store and back, with the cheap shipping cost.

Very chocolate
I don't know why my order of Pure Protein chocolate bars got hung up in the mail, but when they arrived, all was forgiven. I now just have fond memories of these very chocolate pure protein bars, which I especially like to eat with coffee in the morning.

Dutch Treat - World Music
I got Umoja as a gift. Since then I've bought it as a gift for my brother. Blof is a very famous rock band in Holland. Most songs have vocals that alternate between Blof's lead singer, Paskal Jacokbsen in Dutch; and a responding vocal from another country's vocalist, in another language. There's a track featuring Counting Crows, with Adam Duritz. There's also a Dutch/Irish; Dutch/Spanish; Dutch/Portuguese; Dutch/Kenyan, etc. Music is moody, evocative, rhythmic. The lyrics, by the bass player, are in Dutch and are spiritual, longing, wistful. Even without understanding Dutch the music is great. I recommend it highly. There's a DVD of the band traveling the world and meeting the singers and cutting tracks in all the foreign countries in all kinds of wild locations which is a lot of fun.
The opening lines of BINNESTEBUITEN(Yele) could be translated as:
Innermost outing (Yele) (Copyright 2006, Blof)
Take me up to the spirits
from former, from now and from later
They are there, always have been
They are there, always have been
take me out to the land
Take me out on the water
Without mother, without father
It's there, always has been
---- so you see, odd stuff, spiritual, and the music really sails with the lyrics. Sailing rock. Great drums.
