the new sheila divine disc

the new sheila divine disc is in-​hand, amazingly… (due in stores 20 march) the title track came out beau­ti­ful. the record is a little bit dif­fer­ent than the debut, but there is some­thing for every­body. the vocals and gui­tars are more lay­ered, and it’s mixed really well… ‘Antidote’ gets a really cool treatment…

The Mastermind | Submissive Introvert Abstract Thinker

Appar­ently, I’m the mastermind… a Sub­mis­sive Intro­vert Abstract Thinker…

Like just 9% of the pop­u­la­tion you are a MAS­TER­MIND (SIAT). You can be silent and with­drawn, but behind your reserved exte­rior lies an active mind that allows you to ana­lyze sit­u­a­tions and come up with cre­ative, unex­pected solu­tions. Normal people call this “scheming.” Don’t learn German.

Anyway, your sense of style and orig­i­nal­ity are your strengths, and people will respect your judg­ment once they get to know you. If you learn to be a little more per­son­able, you could be a great leader — you’ve def­i­nitely got the “vision” thing down. Just make sure all the plot­ting you do behind those eyes of yours is healthy.

Famous mas­ter­minds in tele­vi­sion: Dr. Claw, The Scare­crow and Mrs. King, Mont­gomery Burns.

A thought from John Ashcroft: (thanks to OpposeAshcroft.com)

“There are voices in the Repub­li­can Party today who preach prag­ma­tism, who cham­pion con­cil­i­a­tion, who coun­sel com­pro­mise. I stand here today to reject those decep­tions. If ever there was a time to unfurl the banner of unabashed con­ser­vatism, it is now.”
