"I had this idea that I was going to rope a deer, put it in a stall, feed it up on corn for a couple of weeks, then kill it and eat it."

I'm looking forward to the new Bill Callahan album, <i>Woke On A Whaleheart</i>, not only because I have this aching feeling that it's going to be a beautiful piece of work, one that I can relate to and fall in love with, but also because I think it's going to offer excellent sound quality, and I just can't wait to hear it on the hi-fi. This is interesting to me because I never looked forward to an album for its sound quality before. Even when reading our own <i>Stereophile</i> record reviews, I've paid little attention to the number of stars placed besides the "Sonics" heading, except to make sure they're the right size and font.

<I>Word Spy</I> is "devoted to sleuthing out new words and phrases. These aren't 'stunt words' or 'sniglets,' but new terms that have appeared multiple times in newspapers, magazines, books, Web sites, and other recorded sources."

Back in March, I posted a <A HREF="http://blog.stereophile.com/wesphillips//index4.html">link</A&gt; to a <I>Physics Web</I> <A HREF="http://physicsweb.org/articles/world/20/3/3/1">article</A&gt; on iconic equations, which quoted Gauss' assertion that if Euler's formula wasn't immediately obvious, the reader probably has no chance at being a first-class mathematician.

I would like to be at home right now, sitting on the orange couch, listening to the hi-fi. Because Bill Callahan has been on my mind, I think I would choose to listen to Smog's <i>A River Ain't Too Much To Love</i>, an album that soothes me, that makes me feel good.
