Great Big Sea

An outstanding Canadian band, these guys mix traditional
(English, Irish, etc.) music with rock-and-roll muscle and
exceptional musicianship. You can buy their latest CD, Turn,
right here: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000JZT2/streznewskicom08
Saw Doctors

What the original E Street Band might have sounded like if
Bruce Springsteen had grown up in County Galway in Western
Ireland. I recommend their CD, Sing A Powerful Song:

Commerce
Luxury Finder
http://www.luxuryfinder.com
This site is a total riot. Leave this URL beside the morning
coffee of that special someone with the extremely platinum
VISA and cross your fingers. If your special someone does not
fit that description, you can still pretend...
News
CNN
http://cnn.com
Pure, high quality dope for the news junkie, available 24/7.
Washington Post
http://www.washingtonpost.com
It's my hometown newspaper, so I am biased, but this is both
an excellent news site and a portal to what is happening in
and around Washington, D.C.
Opinion
Bored No More
http://borednomore.veryweird.com
A veritable potpourri (and Chris Jenkins is going to hate
that word) of thought, poetry, amusement and interaction,
guaranteed to rid you of that pesky late 20th Century ennui.
JOHO (Journal of the Hyperlinked
Organization)
http://www.hyperorg.com
A 'zine with an original point of view on networked people
and organizations, from writer, consultant, and NPR
commentator David Weinberger. Witty and literate (makes him
sound like Oscar Wilde, which he is not), this one will get
passed on to your friends.
RageBoy (c)
http://www.rageboy.com
RageBoy (c) is the alter ego of an Internet visionary
and damned fine writer named Chris Locke. He writes, among
other things, a 'zine called Entropy Gradient Reversals. EGR
has made me laugh, cry, and cheer -- sometimes all at once.
Read it when you need to kick your brain into high gear.
