Lincoln

A make of car from the Lincoln-Mercury division of Ford Motor Company. Lincolns come in two main flavors as of model year 2000: Mark VIII and Continental. They are generally big luxury cars, like Caddies, but a little less ostentatious (as if there's a big difference when you're spending $40K on an American luxury sedan...). The Mark series is smaller and has come in a Luxury Sport Coupe version, while the Continentals are often converted to limos. John F. Kennedy was shot riding in a Lincoln Continental (one of the many weird connections between Presidents Kennedy and Lincoln.

1970s Lincolns are straight-up pimpmobiles.
They Might Be Giants' second studio album, released in 1988 on Bar/None Records.

This album contains most of the rest of the songs fron their demo tape which did not appear on the previous album, with of course an assortment of other songs added to round out the album.

Was once a wonderful up and coming band in the same nerd rock genre as They Might Be Giants, Ween, and The Eels. Originating from New York, they released only one album (self titled) in 1997, and then disbanded in the fall of 1998. The members were Chris Temple, Dan Miller, Dan Weinkauf, and Gonzalo Martinez. Miller also played on the first album by the Fountains of Wayne, and with Weinkauf has since gone on to play with TMBG. Nothing further is known of Temple and Martinez, other than that Temple appeared on the soundtrack to the film Welcome To The Dollhouse. I lament their passing every time I listen to their excellent CD.
