a beginning

I think d-vorce may now be a figment of the imagination. Things are starting to come together in a new and better way.

I’m hopeful for the future!

lyrical translations

So I was talking to one of my good friends and we started talking about songs that we would sing to our children. He said he’d sing Eyes Of Mercy open link in new window which are the loveliest lyrics I’ve ever read by a group called October Project open link in new window. When I read the lyrics I almost cried! He also sent me these lyrics Bowl Of Oranges open link in new window by the group Bright Eyes open link in new window (for which I thank him profusely to no end).

the big D word

D-vorce

Never did I imagine my life would include the D word. But now, it seems, I am victim to d-vorce.

D-Vorce. A cool gang of super people that fly around in anger.

I’m happy and terrified. We have become better friends than anything else. I feel fine with it.

I think it hasn’t hit me yet.

ultimo concierto

“S-S-S-So-So-Soda Stereo… Buenos Aires, Argentina”

I just got my copy of Soda Stereo’s El Ultimo Concierto DVD open link in new window in the mail today and I’m quivering in delight. I immediately popped it in my DVD drive here at work and, of course, I got about five applications trying to play it at once! I eventually used my trusty VLC media player open link in new window to play each VOB file. The DVD playing software on my PC is for crap so I had to view the individual files on the DVD and play each chapter by itself.

This DVD makes my year! I remember when they came to Chicago so long ago, I wasn’t able to go. This DVD at least gives me a small taste of what that concert must have been like. And the extras! Oh, just to look at Cerati sing and listen to him being interviewed (with his sexy Argentinean accent). I truly admire Gustavo as an artist and as a human being. He is my one true favorite artist. Here’s a screen grab I made from the DVD of Gustavo playing guitar, click to view it larger in a new window.

Any time that I’m having a bad day I know I can pop this baby in and it will make me feel a thousand times better. I”m in heaven!

blink of an eye

how fast do you make decisions?

Here’s a great article on how fast a web user makes a decision on whether they like a web site or not.

A study by researchers in Canada has shown that the snap decisions Internet users make about the quality of a web page have a lasting impact on their opinions.

I may have to redesign my web sites. :razz:
