Depeche Mode's new album, Playing the Angel will be released bright and early tomorrow. I of course already have my copy pre-ordered on Itunes and have acquired it by means I rather not mention two weeks ago.



The CD contains incredible songs that are reminiscent of their older music that date back to the 80s. I highly urge each and everyone of you to go out and purchase the new album tomorrow, or in the very least pirate it.

I can't wait to see them live in concert in November!

She's the new nominee for the Supreme Court by President Bush and from various news channels she's getting quite the bashing. No experience as judge. No opinion (just yet) on Roe v. Wade. Never been married. And she's an ultra-conservative-religious-nut to top it off? Wow.

I can't say I support Bush on all of his decisions and this is certainly one of them. Not only is he looking after himself with this nominee, but he's saturating (for at least the past 2 nominees) the Supreme Court with his conservative "buddies."

Here's a link to the transcripts from the press conference he held today, it lasted for about an hour.
