Over the past day or two, I can’t stop listening to Noise Ratchet.
You should listen. (purevolume) You should buy .. CDs under $5 each (used) on amazon. (Till We Have Faces, Noise Ratchet) They broke up last year, but 2/3rds of them started a new band called The Life, so that’s good.
Listen if you like alternative rock (old-Weezer, Failure, Pris, etc.).
I’ve switched back to Gmail. The only thing that stopped me from using it a year ago was the fact that all of my mail was coming from my gmail.com address. I still wanted to keep my individual addresses on my own domains; I like having e-mail come from particular domains, depending on what conversation I am participating in. Robotics stuff coming from @chiefdelphi.com, personal stuff coming from @pubarso.com, etc.
I just read the other night that you can change the ‘From: ‘ header now. So, I can forward all my e-mails to gmail, and make it look like they’re coming from my domains. That, along with the minor improvements they’ve made in the past year (filters, interface, etc.) and I’m sold.
I also am diggin’ the Google Desktop sidebar (which happens to have a Gmail panel) ..
Google Talk this week. When’s the (better) RSS reader coming, Google? That’s all I need. That, and a 27 hour day.
Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite) and Efren Ramirez (Pedro) did a bunch of advertisements for the Utah State Fair. If you like Napoleon Dynamite, check these out; they’re pretty much the best state fair ads ever.
There’s not much going on right now .. except everything.
I’m working. I’m playing. I’m buying a house. I’m happy. I’m stressed. I’m in love. I’m cleaning. I’m having fun. I’m messy. I’m better than before. I’m tired. I’m energized. I’m cheerful. I’m paranoid. I’m at ease. I’m on the right track. I’m ready. I’m healthy. I’m busy. I’m bored.
Wow, what a selfish entry — look at all those “I’m”-’s … dang.
