First Day Of School

…what I've been up to, more or less…

9.5 Flight of the Conchords

I feel irresponsible for not pumping this a long time ago. It’s on season 2 now, and worth finding all the old S1 episodes (and old albums and the original BBC radio show and youtube goodies and…) if you have any appetite for beautifully droll humor or oldskool casio keyboard voices. ...

Go Wrenny! :P
