VFCM22: Lena And Michele

Episode 22 HERE
Our lena Horne tribute album, which, ironically, is exactly two weeks too late, and would have been one week too early (super crepy); Lena Horne sings the works of Michele Legrande (with lots of babbling from the captain in between)... Still working on getting everything ship-shape system wise, but progress! Cheers!

Valentine's 2010

Sorry, freaklings; while the Captain had been looking forward to unleashing a horrifyingly depressing VD episode, the weight of history, bad anniversaries, social commitments, and work have combined into a perfect storm which have rendered such an episode impossible.
