Fredag Fem

I couldn't name this "Friday Five" because I'd just be ripping off Justin. So, you get a little language lesson instead: I dag är Fredag. Fem kommer efter fyra och innan sex. Now, on with it...

1. I never thought I'd see the words "cartoon" and "international firestorm" in the same sentence. I just did.

2. I never really thought I'd see Danish and Norwegian flags being burned. But in the past few weeks I have, in the news, many times. If I see a Swiss flag being burned (they have run the cartoons also) I will have seen everything.

3. I can't wait to get my little hands on a personalized copy of the never-released Eleventh Hour album, compliments of Michael Lenzi. The anticipation of this ranks up there with the never-released Pulsars album that I finally got a hold of.

4. I liked Jason Pierce's collage "On a Wire" so much that I asked him to use it as the cover of my album. Jason liked it enough to transfer a print of it to a 3x3 canvas and make it available to anyone who wants to purchase it and stick it on their wall. How cool is that!
