Prank pulled at Columbia U Lecture
Not musical, per se, but if you've ever gone grocery shopping in New York, hilarious and gut-wrenchingly accurate.

Wow, it's a while since you've been around these parts I think... welcome back. And great videos, I love the first one... it just about beats our end of school prank:
WoW! >>Great way to start the day/week.
>>>>And its so good to "see" you again, Are you gonna stay around? Or disappear again?
So I should be sleeping or doing work for grad school or making worksheets. But no. I miss my family. I'm sick of trying to figure out how the fuck I'm going to teach algebra to kids who can't add. In times like this, I do the only rational thing...
I make mix cd's for to send to my little sister in Wisconsin. Oh yeah. I'm that nerdy.
I am making a "NY, NY" themed one.
Thus far I have: 1. Piazza, New York Catcher - Belle & Sebastian 2. Romeo Had Juliette - Lou Reed 3. Fairytale of New York - Pogues 4. The Only Living Boy in New York - Simon and Garfunkel 5. Spanish Harlem Incident - Bob Dylan 6. Life During Wartime - Talking Heads 7. No Sleep Til Brooklyn - Beastie Boys 8. Marching Bands of Manhattan - Death Cab for Cutie 9. Chelsea Hotel No. 2 - Leonard Cohen 10. Downtown Train - Tom Waits 11. I've Got New York - the 6ths 12. Living for the City - Stevie Wonder
I reckon I have room for about 8 more tracks. Suggestions? Comments? Ridicule?
Good night and good luck.
