The Dead Weather – Treat Me Like Your Mother
My brother and I were discussing Jack White projects not too long ago and we discovered that we have nearly opposite preferences. So here is my current favorite Jack White-associated band.
They have a new album coming out sometime soon (September? - I'm too lazy to research this)

Game 122 recap. Twins 4 Baltimore 3
The Yahoo! Play By Play recap for the 8th inning went like this

Torii Hunter to second advancing on throwKurt Suzuki singled to shallow right center, Trevor Plouffe and Torii Hunter scored
PIRANHA BALL IS BACK BABY!
Tommy Milone pitched well, just had literally three bad pitches in a row (single, single, hanging curveball for a home run on), but was pulled after running out of gas in the 6th. The bullpen was excellent with Fein putting out the fire in the 6th, getting outs in the 7th. Trevor May in the 8th and Kevin Jepsen struck out the side in the 9th. The Twins will try to build on their modest 2 game win streak Saturday.
NOTES
The Twins added some bullpen help by acquiring Neal Cotts from Milwaukee. AJ Acther is being sent down. I imagine he'll be back when rosters expand.
Did Brian Dozier score a run? NO Dozier went 1-5 with 4 LOB. He is stuck on 84 runs scored good for 2ns in the AL
Miguel Sano scored twice, and is now up to 25 runs in 42 games. Thats a pretty good rate!
Game 122. Twins at O’s
I was working on an introduction, but work called and I had to go away. Then I lost my train of thought.
Hopefully, the Twins will preform better at baseball than me at writing.
FMD 82115: Oldham
Been increasing my Will Oldham consumption recently.
Magoo, he has lots of songs about wives and marriage.
"Rich Wife Full of Happiness" "Werner's Last Blues to Blokbuster", others.
But rather than looking for more examples, I should just post this.

August 21, 2015: Aging Memory
I brewed a batch of nut brown ale yesterday, and it took much longer than necessary because I kept getting distracted and forgetting I was brewing.
John Luther Adams – Inuksuit
You have to admit this is cool. Dozens of percussionists, a big warehouse, and John Luther Adams' "ultimate environmental piece".
This is a 15-minute edit of a 60-minute piece, which is absolutely worth a listen if you are so inclined.
