Not sure about the bears, but an airtight garbage can (and a distraction of nummies far away from your home to keep the bears away is good, too) would be a good investment. If you can't live in a peaceful co-existence with those "cute fuzzy critters," you might rethink your living conditions, rather than attempting to change the natural environment.

Just sayin'... {#Wave}

And - I really like this song! (I am so lame...)

 

The song is so-so to me, but you nailed the response!{#Clap}

Yep, I like 'em.  A bit Muse-like.  But what I really like is all the Imogen Heap on this track.

He's not complaining in my view. He's saying he agrees with the termination of other animals that become pests in extreme situations. Everyone does it. Don't tell me you've never killed a fly or a bee, or an ant - even by accident...it happens. It' happens between "lower" creatures than us.I"ve seen, first hand,  a snake kill a rat AND NOT EAT IT, simply because the rat was pestering and intruding on the snake. Killed it and left it.
So, maybe you should lighten up, and take a toke of "life".

She can be on or off. I thought was terrific on the recent Jeff Beck @ Ronnie Scott's DVD (a must watch). You can see her on YouTube from that concert performing a stupendous version of Rollin' 'N' Tumblin'.

But then I heard a track here the other day from Imogen's new CD and it was very bland. It reminded me of Sade and how she had come on so strong in the early days of MTV, only to become repetitively boring (although her band cooked!), with every song sounding just like the last.
 

Sade's band for sure cooked.  The Sade "Live" DVD features a really smokin band, with a relatively unknown drummer named Trevor Murrell who was just tremendous.

 Strange that you can buy techno like Imogen-related from Amazon UK that is much cheaper including shipping than Amazon US.  Arbitrage?

Love this. Heard it ages ago on RP and then had a look for it in various places to download but failed. In some ways I'm glad. Nothing beats the feeling of unexpectedly hearing a great track you do not possess. Enjoy the moment...

Nice big sound and a sweet voice. I've not heard of this lot before. Anyone got a URL for the band website? The RP link points to a distinctly non-musical LHB, and a Scroogle search doesn't find anything.

I used to work for a guy who did this. I'd bet money that the sales on amazon.com are drop-shipped from the UK anyway -- all the sellers are doing is proxying your request and keeping the markup.
