Oh. Right.
Guess I can copy the good tracks (i.e., most of them) to a CD-R. The booklet isn't that great. . .
Update: Two points.
First, I'm in Windows for the first time since whenever, because I wanted to hear the Bootsy interview mentioned a day or so back, and watch Living Colour's banned video for "Bi" (which is hereby adopted as the official site sound+vision track). I've also been totally spoiled by the URL button in Movable Type. Why people can't be platform-independent?
Speaking of which, the funky div/line problem doesn't show up in Netscape 7 or Mozilla in Windows. Sure it'll be there when I go back to Linux, though. Why people can't be. . . oh, that's right. Well, they should do it right.
Secondly, are there any 'net stations with the diversity demonstrated on this soundtrack (rap, R&B, rock, jazz, soul, alternative/college/whateverthefuck)? Under the new regime, most radio programmers will be shot. Those running stations which proudly advertise themselves as "rap-free" will be first in line.
Update 2: As long as we're talking about Me'Shell anyway. . .
And her Okayplayer-designed site is much better than her old one. Not as good as PuffyAmiYumi's, but I think them and their site are something of an acquired taste. . .
Dude. That line is oh-so-totally gone in Mozilla, Galeon, and Konqueror. I haven't looked at it with the, uh, lesser browsers because, uh, 1024M of ram only goes so far.
Secondly, since I imaged from one of my machines at work your site will now be in the history of Internet Exploder on every Macintosh (something like 230 of 'em) on an entire college campus. While it wasn't intentional I think it's a great blessing/curse and I have this horrible feeling you're going to pay me back in a way I'm not going to like. :)
I have a bad feeling about this, Qui Gonn.
Or rather, I have a bad feeling about these pants.
I forgot how good that album was...I'm going to have to dig in the box of old CD's never listened to by Jason.
See? There you go hanging on my every word again. . .
It's frustrating. I keep hoping I'll give something a listen and think, "This is crap. I had lousy taste when I was younger." And it keeps not happening.
Or maybe I just still have lousy taste.
