Speaking of pasta and forks... Just had some delicious Italian seafood. I'm fairly sure one of these days the mercury from all this seafood I'm eating almost daily will finally reach some kind of tipping point and I'm gonna either explode or wake up with radioactive gills or something.

 

maybe I should find my mturk password

 

Tuareg band from Mali/Algeria called Tinariwen. Pretty neat stuff. Love the video too.

 

This is interesting, thanks.

Interesting to hear how they pronounce their company as re-mesh. I always figured it was pronounced as ra-mesh. Also thought it was funny when she started trash talking Mturk.

I didn't get to finish, but look forward to listening to the rest tomorrow.
