2 more quick notes.

1.
After repeated listening, I have decided the new Pearl Jam -- while not as good as Vs -- is the best thing they've done since Vs. It's got an urgency that's been missing from quite a bit of their more recent (and I mean recent, relatively) while providing compelling tunes. Bonus points have been awarded for making sure the track-listing doesn't just alternate from chooglin' rocker to acoustic ballad mode. And "Unemployable" is one of the most unique, compared to the rest of the songs in their library, compositions the band has ever put together.

2.
The White House hired an ex-FOX News commentator as their new press liaison? Well, at least they're being honest about their affiliations now, right? Come to think of it, that might be the first honest thing they've done in a really long time.
