I am doing CAD, listening to WFMU and drinking COFFEE. Robert Fripp likes to say reading a book is like a party, and a book with a cup of coffee is almost like an orgy. Same with this. I LOVE CAD. Its so ORDERLY, I get to LAY DOWN ALL THE RULES, MAN. Its a self-contained little universe complete with operating instructions, logic, a nice design.

@Wild Neil - Cool! Joe Belock is a big fan. I lived in Champaign IL where Paul has spent a lot of his life. He's a super friendly and pleasant person the few times I've interacted with him.

Germany and Middle Europe'll give you the best of the cheapest, but I can't stomach many of those Eurolagers and pilsners.

I'm a big fan of the brewery maybe half an hour's drive from me outside Dingle, West Kerry Brewing, but local brews on the small scale are an expensive habit.

I saw “Possession” for the first time in a cinema about 4-5 years ago and it left me cold as well. I’d been hearing its praises for years prior but something about the pacing and characters just annoyed me, even as someone very into the atypical/abstract.

As for beer prices, maybe the next time I drive to NYC I can take orders. Maybe for cig's too. I can get a 12-pack of Guiness for $15. PBR is 24 for $17.

@Chresti-Nalecow from a Polish store is usually very good. Avoid the Russian stuff, it sucks. Tastes like battery acid or something. Not sure about Ukrainian, stick with the Polish stuff, you can get 2 liter bottles of it at the Polish Supermarkets in Poland. Some US Polish stores have it. Its really good and a nice change from regular purified water.

P-90 Re coffee and beer….KBS makes a coffee stout. It’s ridiculously expensive -about 15 bucks for a four pack. But given that it’s about 14% ABV (if memory serves) and cheaper than buying a beer in a bar, I tried it once. It had a lot going on. Like having beer, dinner, dessert& coffee in a bottle. Propaganda from their website: “KBS is a big imperial stout brewed with a massive amount of coffee and chocolate and then bourbon barrel-aged to perfection. Incredibly silky and full-bodied with notes of vanilla, cocoa, roasted coffee and charred oak.”
