More Colin love I couldn't resist posting this one as well. The song, "Culling of the Fold" was removed from the new album, "The Crane Wife," and might have been used as a B-side instead.

A borrowed clip unfortunately, I'd have gotten my own if security hadn't taken away my camera at the door. Take a look at some of the others YouTube has to offer, such as this cute little diddy (and cute little Colin dancing) about

A quick glance at Caminito, La Boca, Buenos Aires. YouTube really compressed the heck out of it.

Best moment so far: Finding a cafe that had an English speaking person. I really did not think I would have to rely so heavily on the very, very few words of Spanish that I know. The neighborhood I am staying in is outside of the city, Martinez, and really no one speaks English here. I fumbled my way through a pedicure and manicure this morning, and then wasn't able to get the massage I had

I apologize that this video has only darkness and fuzz. Friends gather in Pt Reyes to celebrate with a little music.

Most everything is broken here, and if I don't intend on fixing it, I'll probably just delete it or turn the functionality off. Don't expect anything fancy at Command Zed dot com, unless you like random imagery. I'll be traveling over the next couple of weeks and that is kind of why I decided to breathe a slight bit of life into the ole girl, so I can share an experience or two along the way.

Top 25 Songs of 2005: listed by and in order of play count -- not to be confused with the upcoming Top 25 Songs of 2005, released in 2005, nor the Top 25 Songs that made me cry in 2005, Top 25 Songs that I never heard in 2005 and Top 25 Songs according to others, in 2005. These tunes were tallied by combining both the play counts from Last.fm and iTunes -- both of which are not entirely accurate
