While I studied music for a while, I was never quite in to Mr. Ives. But now that I know who his "Rollo" was, I suppose I could be offended, but then this is all just 1's and 0's.

Moi, I was more fascinated with edgelings like Erik Satie, who had a sort of mad genius. I mean, he called the police on a woman who was infatuated with him.

Did you know what "Volvo" means in Swedish?

Actually, it's not Swedish, but can be loosely interpreted as the Latin version of "I Roll".

Has nothing to do with me, even though I can be dependably boring when the situation calls for it.
