opinion enforcement
   So for the first time in three or four years, I've gotten stuff in consecutive issues of the 
Flagpole.  
This half-assed Mountain Goats review at the bottom of the page would still be awful even if the first paragraph hadn't been awkwardly jiggered with a bit.  But between that, and last week's 
Dead Meadow review, I'm on a roll.  Sure, it's a roll of horribly unthoughtful reviews that could very easily have been written by a mentally-damaged eight-year-old, but it's a start, anyway.
