About

We're a geeky group of friends committed to discussing the serious and important issues of the day: domestic policies and liberties, international relations, security, disaster preparation, law, science, art, literature, pirates and the myriad methods by which squids and octopuses mate. Okay, we mostly care about the last two.

Telling Me You Want To Learn Sitar

Awesome. How could I have missed this? Goodness Gracious Me offered up a music video: "Hindi People," their take on the Jarvis Cocker/Pulp classic Common People, which Toasty turned me onto as a prelude to his favorite William Shatner album, Has Been. (The album version of the Shatner cover is excellent, this live version seems slightly less so.) Via Ennis.
