pearls before swine - side one of "these things too".
the renderers - a dream of the sea.
karen dalton - in my own time.
les rallizes denudes - high or die.
charalambides - first listen to "joy shapes" (holy shit).
jerry garcia - side two of "garcia" (the first one).

I posted once in 2002. I don't like it--there's even a typo. (Omen of the future, and probably one of the reasons I stopped; I hate not being able to fix typos. I've adjusted.) My first post under my own name was a thread about supporting actors in 2005:

In Anticipation of Morgan Freeman Beating Thomas Haden Church

A couple of months later I started posting under a second name (the "merritt ranew" account), and continued using both until early in 2006. I guess you could get away with that then.
