.
I knew he had an achilles' heel... Usher? Outkast.. what is he? 12 years old?
Now what?
A mishmash of thoughts on religion, life, technology, and whatnot.
LastGraph - Visualize Your Listening Habits
All of these music listening tracking services are pretty cool. I'm a Last.FM user, personally, though I don't really utilize the social networking aspects of it. Much like Twitter, it's a thing that really only would be useful if all of your friends were already using it. Since I mostly ...
Sprinting to the Finish Line
The school year ends next week and as has been the case all year, I'm sprinting along. There have been very few slow weeks this year, with all of our capital campaign stuff at work and all. One more week and things will settle down... for about 4 weeks at ...
It’s the 1990’s
So here I am, listening to the The B-52's and R.E.M. and Counting Crows.
I decided to check out R.E.M.'s new album, Accelerate after seeing a couple of favorable reviews. Now you have to understand: it would be an understatement to say that I was a MAJOR R.E.M. fan in junior ...
In Vino Veritas - part 2
Came across an interesting article in the New York Times today that talks about an issue that I've taken some heat for making a stand on in the past. It's all about whether giving children a taste of wine at the dinner table has an effect on whether or not ...
U23D
Somehow I've missed any news of this at all.. and it's set to start airing
"U23D is possibly the best entertainment experience I've ever witnessed." - Alx Klive, WorldTV, January 10, 2008
"Beautifully shot in crystal-clear high-definition, it's genuinely easy to forget you are watching a concert on screen rather than ...
The Best Music of 2007
Favorite Albums This Year:
• Spoon - Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga
No earthshattering innovation here, just more solid work from Spoon.
• The New Pornographers - Challengers
It sounds like band member A.C. Nielsen took the reigns on this one. The canadian supergroup delivered their best work to date.
• The National - ...
Reviews
Been a long time since I've given some reviews, so here's a big list of stuff:
Apple iPhone
95% - will go to 96% when they finally release Leopard and then add support for syncing notes and to-dos. (Both are built into OSX Mail in Leopard). The other 4% is from ...
Fresh Tunes
I've only heard two songs, but I'm already hooked:
Phonograph - (self-titled)
Discovered this one in the latest issue of Paste Magazine. They were one of the Four to Watch for the month. Apparently they generated a lot of buzz opening for Wilco and they sort of are in that Wilco/Spoon ...
Music Binge
I've been on an absolute music binge the last several days. It started with a purge of a bunch of stuff off of my iPod, and the new stuff keeps coming.
I really am a music addict.
Here's today's special:

For fans of indie rock, Decemberists, Tapes 'n ...

iPhone EDGE users getting hosed?
AT&T screwing its EDGE iPhone users? | 9 to 5 Mac.
When I was in the Shoals area visiting over the holidays, I did notice that EDGE was way slower there than I remember it being when I was having to use it when I had the original iPhone. I could ...

Scenes from around the Wolf River as we were out geocaching yesterday:
[gallery]
Because of the great weather we've had over the break, I've had the chance to get in some geocache hunts. Today we hit a couple of the easier park and grab ones while out for lunch, but the main ...
Great Stuff from the App Store
It's amazing how many apps are released in 1 week for the iPhone. Since the App Store was launched, I've followed the RSS feed from PinchMedia that lists all the apps that get added, and there are easily 500 per week. Most are useless, or lousy, but out of 500 ...

Weightbot has been getting a lot of press here lately. I'll echo the praise, it's a great iPhone app to go along with all those New Year's Resolutions to lose weight. It's got an outstanding UI, really makes ...
Hey Ladies - The Best Music of 2008
Why Hey Ladies? There's a significant trend this year with a record number of female voices in my choices for this year's mix—half of the songs. Last year, it was two. The other big trend was that this was the year of the male/female duo, most of them married couples. ...
