I had a dream this morning in which the lock on the Mousemobile's trunk was broken and the blasted thing wouldn't stay shut. Note to self: have better dreams. Suggested topic: Maria Sharapova. Mmmmm, Sharapova.
The Aquabats!
The Return of The Aquabats!
The Fury of The Aquabats!

Yo, Check Out This Ride! EP
Charge!!
Charge!!, the new album by The Aquabats!, is awesome. It is exactly the album I was expecting after Yo, Check Out This Ride! Yeah, The Aquabats! haven't really been a ska band since Floating Eye of Death!, but their songs still have the same energy and wackiness, though now more in a half-pop/half-New Wave style. And the band has shrunk from eight (or nine) men to five; Mu330 is the only five-man ska band I can name.
