Today at work (I work in a university library), we received a package from Amazon. We had ordered this movie:

we opened a box and found this:

I was about to click on the link of what you rec'd but then I saw the address and I was like "hmmm, better not."

It's actually almost safe for work (no worse than your BATMAN toy!)

Ditto Huck ... esp. when considering that what was originally ordered was called "Uranus."

i got a wrong 7-inch from sub pop for my final installment of the single of the month in early 94 and i called them up and they said keep it and sent me the right one (i think it was sentridoh).

so i listen to it a couple times and about 5 years later i put it up on ebay and it goes for $80.

it was the first self-released sunny day real estate single with jeremy on vocals. thank you sub pop!
