a coconut story

once upon a time on a beach somewhere, a palm tree grew from the sand. from that palm tree came two happy coconuts. one day a storm came thru & blew those coconuts from their happy home. lion came & kicked them past flamingos & into a ping pong game where one of the coconuts beheaded a ping pong player. then they rolled south to mexico where they played golf & flew with rubix cube hot air balloons. the coconuts feel from the sky into a lovely purple river where they met a friendly pineapple who gave them a lift over a waterfall & dropped them off in a sailor's boat where they sailed adjacent to the sunset.

it can't be bad, right?

is it bad that i can't go a day without listening to laura veirs' saltbreakers album? cause i gotta be honest, it doesn't feel like a bad thing.

it's one of the few cds that upon playing, anyone around asks who it is and replies "i like this." which i think is proof of something beautiful, or at the very least, good.

what impresses me is her ability to be upbeat, witty, catchy, reflective, quiet and down-tempo all on the same album. which is one reason i think i listen to it every day; it's hard to get sick of an album that travels such distances.
