WWWRL? WTF? I've always wondered what the hell they mean by "WWWRL"? Who knows?

I've always assumed they thought it sounded like the call letters to a NYC radio station.

dunno if it's what they're referencing, but WRL is/was a manufacturer of shortwave radios

It's always caused me a bit of *confusion*. BA-DUMP BUMP CHING! Here all week, folks.

I hate myself.

Oh, give in.

four years pass...

Will someone please please tell me what video of New Order has Barney in sunglasses on the sand on a beach or whatever? I saw this in a club last night, and I thought it might be "New Order Story" but I don't have that, only rented it. Sigh. Please help. With You Tube clip, especially. Come on, help me out. Please.

It's the Top of the Pops performance of Regret, done on the set of Baywatch. You're dead right: it's in its entirety on NewOrderStory.

(I've not had a chance to listen to that track you sent me, either -- up to my bollocks in lab report -- but I will do, soon.)

Oh thank god you helped me grimly. Really I felt so bad about it. I knew it was Regret, somehow, but just couldn't place it. Sigh. I feel so much better now. Thanks.

Don't worry about the track I sent, you know...whenever is convenient for you. You may not even be interested in hearing it and that's fine, too! :) I believe in freedom of choice, man. Obama is all about that shit.
