lapse

me lady and I have moved house in the past two weeks. bye-bye noisy 'hood, hello 1890's house with 10' ceilings and side-yard with an apple tree and grape vines.

still haven't connected to the internets at the new place, hence the lapse in posting. should find remedy to such soon and get back on the gravy train of information and communication.

where would we be without the whirrled wise web (sounds better, don't it)? making phone calls, writing letters, and walking around not knowing answers to questions. sad.

pandora project

i've been having fun listening to the pandora radio projectin recent days. the concept is simple and innovative, type in a artist that you like and you are filtered through subsequent artists that are similar in genre and sound to that who you enjoy.

you are able to then flag each song as a direct hit or a flop, based off of the user-contributed formula of suggested listening. good way to learn about new music within your tastes.

just a bunch of whiny bitches

astronomers have discovered that the earth emits awful, ear-piercing chirps and whistles that could be heard by any aliens who might be listening. the sounds are created by charged particles from the solar wind colliding with earth's magnetic field.
