Actually, they are quite good, IMHO. They signed with Saddle Creek Records, the Omaha label that also puts out Cursive, The Faint, Bright Eyes, and many other good bands.
Their latest album is The Execution of All Things and has some very good stuff on it.
I would encourage you to visit saddlecreekrecords.com, as they've got mp3's posted for all the groups on the label and their stuff is really quite good.
Surprise! Your mouth is even dirtier than your keyboard probably, and demonstratably dirtier than the mouth of a dog or cat.
BUT, there is a large difference between the microorganisms occupying your skin and computer and those that MIGHT be in your toilet (or on it).
i.e. Giardia, E. Coli, Clostridia, Salmonella, Shigella are all GI tract infectious and will make you really sick (as a bonus it only takes about five shigella to infect a person), but your skin houses things like Proprionobacterium acnes which won't make you sick but will make your acne worse.
Skin also houses some staphylococcus species but they usually won't cause trouble unless the get inside you in some way.

P.S. I knew studying for medical boards would come in handy someday!
Well, it looks like Wintel is no longer sufficient to describe the hardware/software monopoly. With MS throwing their support behind AMD we need a new moniker for the combo. I vote AMDows.....any other suggestions?
To me, if you already have a teacher who is actually going to be "teaching" the students (i.e. the curriculum is not entirely web based and created by a committee), then your best bet is a pure "videoconferencing" system over dedicated fiber w/ a bunch of televisions, several cameras, and of course a fax machine.
My mother teaches several rural Nebraska schools using a system such as this and even a newbie like her understands "face to face" instruction requires no special skills on the part of the students or the teacher (well, to a point).
This type of system is OS agnostic, but also rather expensive. For smaller class sizes with a dedicated teacher though, I don't think it can be beat.
I would like to know how this person's post, which is obviously off-topic for this story (and certainly belongs in the story on moderation), acheived a score of three from the moderators. This, to me, suggests bias. I appreciate the issues that he raises, but I question that this is the correct forum.

Actually, I'm pretty sure Balzac said that, not Hugo.

hmmm, it seems unlikely that the SAME pig that you ate to give you atherosclerosis will still be around to donate it's heart to you.
