That's interesting. Southern Rock Opera's getting a vinyl release. There's a new Bonnie "Prince" Billy on the way too. As well as Clearlake and the Bad Seeds (although not, I should stress, in collaboration).

As [livejournal.com profile] sneerpout pointed out earlier today, a man has been arrested in Florida after a DNA sample indicated that he might be responsible for the 1993 rape and murder of Mia Zapata, singer of a Seattle band called The Gits that my friend Ximena was playing me stuff by the last time I saw her - in Texas in the middle of '99, I think. Articles here and here.

Further to my recent dronings (both here and in the real world) about Milgram's Small World hypothesis, there's an article in the Grauniad today about a documentary that's on on Friday. To test it, a journalist advertised in Outer Mongolia for someone to be in said documentary. She decided on a nomadic herder who'd trained as a teacher but never met a foreigner. She got to him in eight.

And thank you to [livejournal.com profile] original_aj for pointing out this doubtless invaluable book, which I'm sure we'll all be equipping ourselves with. Does the Pope? I'm sure he would if that's where he was.
