Listen: What are your favorite songs about places, or that have a place in the name?

Watch:  Any particular shows you’re looking forward to seeing this season?

Read:  What are your thoughts on Amazon Kindle (the electronic book reader)? Do you love this sort of invention, or would you rather have a physical book in your hands?

Either answer in the comments or leave a link to your entry.

My answers:

1)  “I Can’t See New York” by Tori Amos, “Leaving New York” by REM, “Come Back to Camden” by Morrissey,”Chelsea Burns” by Keren Ann. And I gotta love Nelly’s nods to St. Louis, because oh how I miss that city.

2)  Flight of the Conchords, the 3rd season of Big Love (sheesh, Big Love better be good with all the ad $ they’re spending on it!)

3)  I don’t think I’ll get one, but it’s pretty cool to be able to sample a full chapter and to be able to have a book arrive to you in a couple minutes. I just like the sense of having a “library”, and Kindle would take away from that.
