Amazon has released June’s set of 50 albums for $5 each
But…
I’ve been listening to a lot of alt country (or as I call it, real country) lately…here’s some good stuff you can preview in the widget.

S.C. Supreme Court orders governor to apply for stimulus money.
The court voted 5-0, with Justice Costa Pleicones concurring in a separate opinion, that the General Assembly had the authority in passing the state budget to order Sanford to apply for the money.
Just for giggles, it would be interesting to see what would happen to him if he still refused. The worst case scenario is that he’d be an automatic front runner for the GOP nomination in 2012.
Yeah, that’s pretty bad, but still…
@svandyke pointed out this literal version of Total Eclipse of the Heart. It made me laugh. He also sent me the second video a while back of the misheard lyrics to Pearl Jam’s Yellow Ledbetter. Sorry I’m slipping and didn’t post it earlier.
You’re welcomed.

Blogging is often cited in the obits of newspapers. Twittering is often cited in the obits of blogs. And now I’m hearing Facebook and MySpace cited as the killers of Twitter. Some soon-to-be freshmen in high school told me last week they’re not on blogs or Twitter. They’re strictly Facebook or MySpace.
And just wait for Wave to ramp up. I think it may eventually kill email, along with marginalizing all of these other communication tools. Ok, “kill” may be a strong word, but the future of communication definitely lies in a One-Stop-Shop, real time type of communication instead of these various distributed and semi-connected tools we’re using now.
In the future, every communication tool will be useful for 15 minutes.

Education is not one-size-fits-all. We need to stop pretending that we can make it so.
The same goes for healthcare.
It all boils down to choice, choice, choice. I wonder how many people would be mad if they all of a sudden only had one or two soft drinks to choose from. I bet we’d see some action on that issue!
Of course, there’s much more to the post, but that pretty much sums it up.
