"If you want to be free, there is but one way; it is to guarantee an equally full measure of liberty to all your neighbors. There is no other." - Carl Schurz

"The saddest epitaph which can be carved in memory of a vanished liberty is that it was lost because its possessors failed to stretch forth a saving hand while yet there was time." - George Sutherland
"Whenever a separation is made between liberty and justice, neither, in my opinion, is safe." - Edmund Burke

Anticipation

It's almost time for my Emusic dowloads to refresh! I am awaiting tomorrow afternoon as eagerly as a Gentile child awaits Christmas morning.

The toughest part is deciding how to use my 90 downloads. My "Save For Later" list is up to 40 albums, all released since the latter part of last year. I agonized for days on which albums to download so that it adds up to exactly 90 tracks. I think I have finally settled on a list:

  • Beirut: Gulag Orkestar
  • Danielson: Ships
  • Jolie Holland: Springtime Can Kill You
  • Little Annie: Songs From the Coalmine Canary
  • Matmos: The Rose Has Teeth in the Mouth of a Beast
  • The Streets: The Hardest Way to Make an Easy Living
  • Sunset Rubdown: Shut Up I Am Dreaming
  • Scott Walker: The Drift
  • Richard Youngs: The Naïve Shaman

Just thinking about it makes me salivate profusely.
