ugh

I have a Latin grammar "quiz" today. I say "quiz" because it's 10% of the course grade. That doesn't sound like any "quiz" to me. It's at times like these that you're very glad you did the math and decided to take the class pass-fail. Not that I won't still work ('cause if I didn't, I would fail), but it does take a lot of the pressure off.

This Saturday: Jeremy Toback and Steve Reynolds

This Saturday, February 1, Jeremy Toback, Steve Reynolds, and Gus Black will be playing a show at the hotel cafe in hollywood. I've seen Jeremy numerous times now, and always enjoy it. The last show of his that I saw (I think), Steve opened, and was amazing on the guitar. Very cool stuff, and definitely something you should check out.

Paul Oakenfold - The Harder They Come (Featuring Nelly Furta

I love songs that bring Tricky out of his normal musical styles (though for Tricky you might need to say his style of the moment). I heard a bit of this song on KCRW and was like "ehh... that's cool." Then I heard Tricky's grovel come on, and instantly I loved the stylistic juxtaposition. Very cool.

some things never change

I was just looking at an old screenshot and saw a post entitled PalmIII, from October 26, 1999. Ironically, this exact same sentiment could well have been written this semester, when I resolved to start using the PalmIII to take notes on. This is definitely proof that I don't have a good use for the Palm, if I've had it four years and still can't get myself to use it regularly.

busy

I haven't been on the computer much lately. Work, classes, San Diego, and having Kathy here have pretty much monopolized all my time (not that that's bad). Expect to see more here starting next week.
