You should probably make sure your site works before you start bumping 7-month-old posts to pimp it. Currently it's telling me Yes I can take my bike on a train heading downtown because it's after 9:...

I love Station to Station, even more than some of the Berlin stuff and the earlier plastic soul stuff like Young Americans (but not the Ziggy Stardust / Hunky Dory era, nothing will ever beat that). ...

It should be noted that I had switched to stout only because I wanted to sample as many of GI's beers as possible, not because I didn't like the Sai-Shan-Tea. I thought it was great. Thanks again, C...
