Gandalf is up!

That's our home Windows PC for you guys! I can say without exaggeration that the hardest bits about setting back up were rewiring the home theater setup and the computer set up. The iMac was a breeze, of course and has been operational since day one but Gandalf took a bit of work. Anyway, the internet connection should be all OK as of today. In other news, work is going along swimmingly and we are due to hand over the old house to our landlady on Saturday.

If you have a bit of free time and have fond memories of cassette tapes, head on over to this site and generate your own cassette, like I did here.



TPTP, btw, was a compilation tape I tried to make every year (TPTP = The Past & The Present). That's a bit of useless trivia for you, but I do have fond memories of making compilation tapes. Seems like I used to make a whole bunch of them back in the day when making each one would take like a month - 15 days to decide on the songs and a week for the music store to record one for you, another week to neatly label and finish off the tape. These days, you can make a playlist in iTunes in about 5 minutes and it already includes all the song information and album art! And how many playlists have I made this year? Try ZERO. Hmm, something's wrong there.

My commute these days, takes me through wonderful Niles Canyon. I'll have to dedicate a whole post to this area sometime but suffice to know that it is as good a commute as any I have had and the longer (than was usual) drive gives me a chance to catch up with all the tunes on my iPod. I miss bicycling though.

That's it for now, more later.
