corn dogs and cotton candy and cold beer, oh my!

in a move that has shook the very foundation on which i’ve built my life on, the fam decided not to go to the fair at the asscrack of dawn. rather we’re leaving at the reasonable hour of noon. i am shocked, shocked and delighted.

i am giddy with anticipation. my love of the great minnesota state fair is well documented. this year will be even better than before because the peanut will be along for the ride. expect a linus statue featuring three adorable children later tonight.

whee!

Joe Henry in the LA Times on Music's Literary Side. It's really good until he mentions Alice Munro (barf). [+]

You should go listen to this NPR interview with Liz Phair on the 15th Anniversary of Exile in Guyville. Go listen, now. Seriously. Go. She talks about the whole Exile on Mainstreet/Guyville thing. It's fascinating. [+]

Could The Deets be any cuter? No, no he couldn't be. [+]
