Alex's Birthday (Soundtrack by Attention Span Radio)
Happy Birthday, Alex! Son #1 turned 19 today, with attendant gastronomic orgy (orchestrated by domestic goddess) and bestowal of electronic gadgets (orchestrated by gadget god). He seemed particularly pleased that younger brother bought him a copy of Amon Tobin's Bricolage after seeing it on his amazon wish list. His musical tastes are astonishingly broad - the apple has fallen near the tree in this case. Another fave: Jaco Pastorius, who occupies a prominent spot in his electric bass pantheon. Miracles of Synchonicity: Soon as I wrote that, as if on cue, a song by Jaco came on aTTeNTioNsPaNraDiO, whose fabulous streams of funky-fusion can be found on iTunes and Live 365. Other recent cuts: Greg Rapaport, Jeff Lorber, Michael Brecker, Mike Stern. Makes post-orgy dish duty something to look forward to (almost).

Pahdon me, but I DO believe "domestic goddess" is capitalized.
