Well, on my first day I already received an offer to submit works for K-12 school choirs. Too bad I don't have any.

I think I finally fixed everything with the blog. You should be able to see all pictures (with a few noted exceptions) and access all linked files.

In other news: I'm bored. And I'm due here at 9:30 AM tomorrow.

Ok, folks. Sorry for those of you that tried to visit any portion of my web empire in the past 48 hours and were smacked down by a rather callous notice informing you my account had been suspended. Well, it had been. Long story short, we're back up and running, but because everything got wiped, I have to go through and restore all my files manually. This means links to content will be broken for a while. Everything else should work as intended (except for rangers, who shall remain broken and sucky until the end of time).

Earlier Tuesday, British Prime Minister Tony Blair's official spokesman said the UK remained open to a negotiated solution that would avoid referring Iran to the Security Council.

"Our ideal outcome is a diplomatic solution," AP quoted the spokesman as saying on condition of anonymity.

Hmm...

I guess it says something when the amount of money in my two bank accounts is less than the number of fingers I have. That something is probably "CD's are a terrible investment".

like a shitty Bob Dylan in reverse

I don't write 'em, I just link 'em.

1. Bach is not all that. He just isn't.
2. Neither are students that precede all their questions with statements like, "Now I'm not trying to kiss your butt ..." or "I don't want to be the person who asks this question, but ..."
3. Cell phones are dangerous. I'm currently over by almost 200 minutes. The next bill isn't going to look good.

There you have it. The new year opens with a new song. The thought occurred to me today that I might only be good at creating b-sides on account that I'm so fantastically weird. I guess that's all right.

I recorded this while I was in Florida, in my makeshift studio. For those of you that may already have a copy, this is a revised mix that fixes a few problems like the lack of bass and the weird voice panning.

My New Year's resolution is 1600 x 1200.
This probably means a new flat panel monitor and video card.
