Well, random-ness today. I found out from Pete that Ani will be playing in Savannah in Oct. Very cool indeed. Also, after some shopping, I’m well stocked in RedBull for a while. Also, it seems that the X-Comments system won’t be working. The XML parser is installed and working but ASP is simply out of the question. I can’t say I blame chip for not installing it though, I wouldn’t want the words “Microsoft” and “server” anywhere near each other. But, on the upside, Chip did say that if he gets bored at work, he might be willing to convert the ASP stuff to PHP, which would be very cool of him. I’m going to leave the comment tag in the bottom of the posts for a while, but be aware that they obviously aren’t working. Also, in other random-ness, I found my copies of both Quake III and Diablo II today. Which of course means that my boredom will now give way to some serious fragging. On the music side of things, I picked up some CDs that I didn’t really have the money for, but following Chris’ example, it was fun to splurge. I picked up Darren Emerson: Global Underground 20 (Singapore) and Seb Fontaine: Prototype 4. Both double CD sets that I’ve been wanting for some time now but never bothered to pick up. Chris has had the Emerson set for a while and I know that it sounds good, and listening to Fontaine on the way home in the car has helped me cement him as one of my favortite DJs, it was a very good CD. Ok, enought rambling for the night. I don’t know what I’ll be up to tomorrow, I don’t has to work until Wednesday. If the weather is good, maybe I’ll finally have a chance for some photo-shooting time. Later.
Current Mood: Musically very happy

Well, today I get to relax a little. I deposited my last two pay checks yesterday, so I’ve got a little money to play with as well. I’ll see if I can drag Chris away from Diablo 2 long enough to head into Nashua and hit Newbury Comics. Is it bad that I spend almost all of my extra money on music? At this point I’m seriously considering just saving some of it any buying some turntables for x-mas. Anyway, today I can kick back, relax and enjoy some random movies on Comedy Central. I think they’re showing PCU in a few minutes. Later

Well, X-Comments are installed. They seem to “be there” but not work. I think the unfortunate problem is that hindenburg (the server) may not be running ASP. But I won’t be able to find out till I can talk to Chip (who will be back tomorrow night). At any rate, it’s “there”, it just doesn’t work yet. Gimme a few days. Later.
Current mood: Plah!

Well, I’m finally home after another long day at work. Today was pretty good, with some minor annoyances and some minor victories. The cash register at the end of tonight was $20 off, which is odd. But whats even weirder is that the last night I closed it was $20 off as well. I know I know how to count and give correct change, and I’m certainly not skimming off the register. But, its odd non-the-less. As for the minor victories: I got a new DVD, “Better Living Through Curcuitry”. I kick ass documentary that helps define the rave/techno scene and experience. Also, I got a 4-port USB hub from Brent today, very nifty indeed. Now I can hook up more than two USB things. Always a plus. Also, after I post this, I’m going to try and set up X-Comments, so we’ll see how that goes. Anyway, I’m sure I’ll blog again in a few minutes. Later.
Current Mood: Good

Well kids, it’s another long day of work for me. I’m at the store from noon till close. But before I run off to jump in the shower and get to work, I thought I’d share this. X-Comments is a XML-ish comment system written by Josh over at GrooveTheory. He’s just recently posted an explination on how to get it up and running and when I get home tonight I think I’ll give it a try. So, later tonight, you should be able to comment on the randomness that goes on. I’ll certainly enjoy hearing what you guys have to say. But, it’s not 100% yet, so we’ll see how it goes. I hope I can play with the layouts and such… Ok, I’ve gotta get going if I’m going to get to work on time. Later.
Current Mood: Tired but good
