Another Mystery Solved
On the way back from Iron Man 2 tonight, I heard Jim Svejda (SHFAY-dah) play a familiar sounding piece, from an old recording.
It took me about 15 seconds to figure out where I knew it from. Let's see if anyone who reads this blog (*cough* Tom Adams *cough*) can recognize it.
The piece was (aptly) named "Oh Good Ale", by Peter Warlock. You can here it hear (Amazon).
Recognize it?
Ok, here's a hint.
Very aptly named.

Welcome to Alexandria 17
To encourage love of the environment, all civilian recycling will be tracked via monitoring chips. The city administrator believes citizens will find these tracking chips even less invasive than the rectal implants tested on the population last year.
Alexandria's benevolent administrator addresses its peaceful citizens.
We hope you enjoy your stay in the People's Republic of Alexandria 17. Should you have any issues, the friendly Overwatch officers will assist you without mercy or hesitation.
A friendly Alexandria policeman officers his assistance.
Next week, we will discuss the numerous benefits of Alexandria 17's suppression field.
