This blog used to be about politics. Not so much anymore as I have worked through my fascination with that subject. It now seems appropriate that with a new president and the end of the Bush nightmare that I move on to new subjects that are more in line with my current interests. I may still occasionally express an opinion about political matters but for the most part I will be commenting on music, photography and personal observations. Thank you for reading.

Moths
 





There is a moth flying around, getting near the computer monitor, which is about the only light left in the room. I used to be able to catch the moths as they flew around. I would clap my hands and then check my palms for "moth dust". Their wings have a powdery substance on them, like graphite, or real fine flour. But lately I've been having trouble catching them. They've gotten faster, or craftier. I suspect it may be because of the traps. One of the traps sits on the top of the refrigerator. Its a triangular shaped tunnel made of thin cardboard. The insides are coated with a sticky substance that traps the moths and kills them... somehow. But it might only be the slow moths, the ones that I'd been clapping to death easily. So now, only the fastest, most stealthy moths remain. Ones that I can no longer best with my slow clapping technique.

Its gone now, perhaps eating a shirt or hopefully getting a little too close to a burning candle.

I like a few new bands...

Architecture in Helsinki
(links to Sven, a blog, who has a couple of songs available)

and..

Okkervil River


I have a pet peeve, and tell me if I'm wrong here. But, I have to wonder why people don't take the time to input tag information into their MP3 files? Some sites that offer free sample downloads don't even put their artists and song title in the filename. You end up with a file named 100023645.mp3 that, if you're not careful about renaming could get lost on your computer as "some song, by some group".

I'm not a marketing genius, but I have to assume that if you're making songs available for free download that you might want to make it easy for that person to remember who you are, the title of your song, and even which album they might want to buy if they decide they like what they hear.

So no more: brucesong_partofhetitle.mp3 with no tag information!
