Appeal to the Young'uns

The (sadly, cancelled) vampire/PI drama "Moonlight" frequently featured the song "Lucky", by Bif Naked. I rather like the song, but I know nothing about the group. Can anybody tell me anything about them - their sound, their genre, whatever?

Ramble, Part 55: Imply or Implicate?

In the last Ramble, I discussed mathematical aspects of the inclusive/exclusive "or" question. Here, I'll turn to some linguistic aspects. Arnold Zwicky has done yeoman's work on this in a series of posts on LanguageLog, and much of what I'll be saying is adapted (in some cases, outright stolen) from there. If you'd rather go to the horse's mouth, this search picks up the whole series (plus one or two unrelated posts, but what can you do?)
