For your reading pleasure (or proofreading pleasure, if you’re my mom) I’ve just posted a review of Ascension’s T.A. Project album.

In other site news, I’ve revamped the worldview section with separate pages so that it’s a little kinder to people with slower connections. Dial-up users are people too! :-)

If you need some entertaining reading, check out Kevein Burnett’s Another Language which is a dictionary of sorts of the very entertaining slang some people here at EMU use.

Yep, it’s a new worldview piece. This one gets out some ideas that have been bouncing around in my head for quite some time. It’s also the most personal and vulnerable of any of the worldview pieces so far. Go check out sadangel and let me know what you think. :-)

The worldview project page is now more fun than ever! And why is it more fun, you ask? Because you can now leave comments on the worldview pieces. Tell me what you like, what you don’t like, any suggestions or insights you might have. I want to hear from you! :-)

Don’t you wish you were in Australia right now? Me too, especially after reading how people need to shower together to help beat the drought. This is a real news article. Seriously.

Here’s another article that caught my eye: 101 things Mozilla can do that IE can’t. Yeah buddy.

If you’re observant, you might have noticed that the "Am I listening to music right now?" feature has been missing the last few days. That’s because when my site got moved from San Francisco to Atlanta, somehow the resolv.conf file (it’s a Linux thing) got messed up and my website couldn’t find other websites (and the music thing relies on being able to get talk to EMU’s web server). I finally got tired of it and posted a message in Eryxama’s support forums and had a reply with the answer in a few hours.

All that to say that you can once again spy on my music listening habits. I know all you adam-stalkers out there are thrilled. Don’t try to hide it.

This morning I was thinking about how I hadn’t talked to my friend Jonah in a really long time and that I should get in touch with him (this was at like 8:10am or so). Then I check my email around 11am and there’s a message from Jonah. Woah. Even stranger, he sent it at like 8:07.

I’m off now to check out this Pizza Hut Chicago Dish Pizza that is supposed to be so wonderful. I’ll let you know how it goes.

Update: The pizza is just as good as the commericals say. Maybe better. Mmmmmm….

BTW, the title of this entry comes from the Guitarmageddon episode of Home Movies. And it has nothing to do with weird bellybuttons. Just thought I’d clear that up before anybody asked.

Sigur Rós is an amazing band from Iceland. I just got their newest cd, ( ) yestderday. It’s basically instrumental — there are words, but they’re in a made-up language called "Hopelandic." The music is hard to describe… beautiful, dreamy and majestic are words that come to mind. If you want to get an idea of what they sound like, check out the mp3s available for download from eighteen seconds before sunrise.

Short and to the point: lush music of euphoria is the newest worldview piece. Give it a gander. And I’d love some comments. :-)

Thanks to Jeremiah Cohick, there is now a much better icon for Mozilla under BeOS. If you’re using Mozilla under BeOS (hm, come to think of it, I don’t actually know anybody else who is, but oh well :-) check it out at BeBits. Thanks again Jeremiah.
