    Ramón Rodríguez (The New Raemon / Madee) Escoger un álbum para contar una historia es tan sacrificado como creer en el amor perdurable. Tan solo una portada ilustra este relato, pero sería injusto no reconocer que en realidad he pensado en dos referencias para escribirlo. No me siento del todo culpable, ya que Archers of Loaf vs The Greatest of All Time es un EP. Sunny Day Real Estate, Sunny Day Real Estate (Sub Pop, 1995) Un día soleado Jamás he tenido intención de contratar los servicios de una vidente, pero si en 1992 una bruja llega a decirme que en diez años estaría comiendo un croissant en el cuartel general de Sub Pop, uno de mis sellos preferidos, no habría creído una sola palabra. Eso mismo pensé mientras desayunaba con Shawn Rogers en las oficinas de Sub Pop, en Seattle. Shawn era el mánager de Crooked Fingers, el proyecto en solitario de Eric Bachmann tras la disolución Archers of Loaf, y Archers of Loaf —eran y siguen siendo— mi grupo de rock predilecto de los noventa. Shawn dejó en la mesa su taza de café. Mientras yo trataba de masticar aquel croissant que acababa de ofrecerme, lanzó una pregunta que tardé bastante en contestar. —¿Te apetece cenar con Eric y conmigo mañana? El Eric de la pregunta no era otro que Eric Bachmann, y la propuesta de Shawn era un bonito gesto a modo de mano tendida. 72 Ramón Rodríguez Crucé por primera vez el charco en 2002 con la intención de conseguir licencias para Cydonia, el sello discográfico que fundé en 2001 para publicar los discos de Madee y otros artistas nacionales e internacionales.

SJSU human resources major Luis Figueroa, who was getting dinner at Burger King, said the new fast-food restaurant was a nice addition to the university, because it offers more options. "It gives you a chance to eat something other than DC (dining commons) food," Figueroa said. Jerry Mimnaugh, executive director of Spartfm Shops, Inc., said the Burger King opening was a continuation of a variety of new food operations, including Sbarro, Noodle Bowl and Sushi Sushi, in the last 12 months. Associated Students President Heather Cook said the decision to open a franchised burger joint stenuned from a campus survey. The campus-wide study was conducted during the research gathering phase of the retail mas- ter plan and was interpreted by an independent company from Los Angeles, according to Mimnaugh. "Burger King was one of the top picks," Cook said. "We are giv- ing them (students) what they want."
