Microkhan’s off to the (ugh) dentist, so that’s a wrap for today. But to make up for the bummer nature of the suicide post, we’ll leave you with a sonic treat: “Sally Got a One-Track Mind” by Diamond D & The Psychotic Neurotics, an underrated gem from hip-hop’s Golden Age. Okay, granted, the lyrics aren’t exactly uplifiting—Diamond D was a master of the sordid cautionary tale, and I’ve always wondered how Sally dealt with aging. But the beat will stick in your head, in a good way.

Hope all went well at the dentist, homie. I had my visit this morning, brutal. :\

No cavities, though I was severely reprimanded for brushing too hard. And, of course, the polishing paste was as unpleasantly gritty as I remember. If I got diamond caps, would I still have these problems?
