Jenn Grinels "Right From The Start"

Here's another suggestion for those independent artists who want to protect their investment and coax good things from the universe.

Maybe you should name your CD something like "Indestructible," or "Safely In Your Hands" or "Delivered By The Post Office With Maximum Efficiency And Care."

Because it seems like you are just asking for trouble if you name your CD "Broken Heartbreaker" and in fact have "Broken" and "Breaker" in large print on the cover.

Care to guess in what condition Jenn Grinels CD arrived in?

And you think that's just a coincidence?

Care to guess in what condition a second copy of the CD arrived in?

Yep, the unthinking, unfeeling, unknowable universe does like a good ironic chuckle.

Both CDs weren't just scuffed or dinged.  Both were cracked into pieces.  And strangely, there was nothing wrong with the jewel cases.  Just the discs were damaged.  Hrumph.

So we requested a third copy, which did arrive intact.

But I'm a little nervous to put it in our CD player, without dressing in some kind of protective gear first.
