Tough call, but it's a class I can't "bluff", as the nightshow host "who cannot be named" so streetly termed it. Will I regret the choice?

Something moving at their center, a mechanical shudder. Robot arms tending a slender white rectangle with robot reverence -- a platter, a pretense, bracing an infill of pristine, gleaming black droid.<br /><br />Darkdroid.<br /><br />Reborn.<br /><br /><br /><span class="src"><cite></cite></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23404277-8343308601010987090?l=darkdroid.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>darkdroidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11579271974973906450noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23404277.post-1146861084412589782006-05-05T13:28:00.000-07:002007-06-06T18:21:29.436-07:00Rediscovery of a long-loved sound: African a capella isicathamiya music. <span style="font-style: italic;">Ladysmith Black Mambazo, </span>to be specific. Their "Unomathemba" -- originally of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Dry_White_Season"><span style="font-style: italic;">Dry White Season</span></a> soundtrack -- is nearly as good as their "Amazing Grace". Thank you SNL, Robert Smigel, and Dennis Haybert. Now <span style="font-style: italic;">The Lion King</span> demands a re-listening.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23404277-114686108441258978?l=darkdroid.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>darkdroidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11579271974973906450noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23404277.post-1141468473850589532006-03-04T02:34:00.000-08:002006-03-04T02:36:03.996-08:00Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23404277-114146847385058953?l=darkdroid.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>darkdroidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11579271974973906450noreply@blogger.com0
