I'm trying to get my hands on a copy of The Retrosic's "God of Hell". I'd kind of like their other albums, too, but they seem to really not want to sell them to me.

They have no digital purchase options.
Their mail-order of physical CDs leads to the question of intercontinental shipping costs even if I *could* place the order, which I can't, because the company that actually handles the mailing doesn't seem to think the CD exists, and while my German is surprisingly good for a guy who uses the phrases "Mein Deutsche is shreklich" and "Ich spreche kein Deutsch" at least once in any given conversation, I can't really intelligently follow up on their site to figure out if it's sold out, no longer available, or I just can't find it.

[EDIT: Oh, duh. That little Union Jack in the corner is the "take me to the English version" button. And yeah, the one I want is sold out.]

Normally when a company makes it THIS hard to give them money, I just give up on giving them money.... but The Usual Suspects don't seem to have an MP3 copy available, either.

So!

Anyone in Europe feel like buying a CD, ripping a copy to MP3, and sending it to me? I'll pay you back via paypal or something, up to the 13 euro price tag. I don't care about the physical plastic (I'd just rip it to MP3 and let the disc gather dust like EVERY OTHER CD I OWN is doing), so there's no need to deal with that.

EDIT: Apparently it's sold out. Anyone know someone who has it and wants to sell it?

EDIT2: Several good links in the comments! I love you guys.

Dinner!

Today I'm doing a repeat of a past dinner - homemade bruschetta and steamed artichokes.

Audience Participation Day: How about you? What's the last meal you made that turned out well, and how did you make it?

It's possible Ted Nugent's paranoid rantings about how good white Americans must charge Washington and "chop their heads off", referring by name to the President and several other figures, and about how if Obama is re-elected he will be "dead or in jail" within a year, weren't JUST about how Nugent is a racist fuckwit.

It's possible he knew he would be "dead or in jail" within a year because Nugent filmed himself committing a crime and put it on TV. And he thinks Romney will pardon him?
