Music I'm still missing

It's 2003. Somebody breaks into my car and steals 90% of my music collection that I've been working on for about 10 years, at this point.

Yes, my fault for leaving it there. Yes, my fault for not having it all backed up, yet.

Nice of the thief to re-lock my car doors when they were done. They took my eclectic CDs (good luck with resale on the Ancient Mariner's Chanteymen and Atwater and Donelly especially, guys) and they took my *faceplate.* Just the faceplate, not the actual stereo. We're going to put them in the not-so-brilliant category. If you're going to steal shit, at least steal shit worth stealing. Duh.

Anyway, I had left most of the jewel covers for all the CDs at my mom's house, still, at this point. Luckily. I called and she was kind enough to tell me what they all were, so that insurance could *accurately* underpay my replacement costs. At that time, we needed the money for things besides CDs a lot more, though, anyway.

Fast-forward to now. I still haven't replaced most of this music, and I've been keeping tabs on this hand-written list for 5 years now. So I'm going to type up what I'm still missing (and still care about replacing), in order that I can finally throw away the list and keep it somewhere I can't lose. And refer people to it for my birthdays and Christmas and such (and any anonymous benefactors who happen to read random blogs, haha).

The rest of it, either I've replaced, John also had, or I don't miss...

Eddie Izzard - Noah and the Ark

LMAO at this one... I love Eddie Izzard. I don't know why it's taken me this long to discover him, but I've only started watching his stuff in the last year or so...

I'm so glad for YouTube... apparently Germany doesn't "do" stand-up comedy the way we do, and even if they did, my language isn't good enough yet. That's one big measure of your language skill in a language you're trying to learn- are the jokes funny, yet?

And now, without further ado...
