Do you like surprises?
Yes I like surprises. I just do not like it when the moment right before the surprise takes a long time. That moment when you know something it going to happen, but you do not know what. That moment always makes me nervous.
I have a professor in college who said that the Beatles where the Shakespeare of the 20th Century. As bold of a statement that is, I cannot disagree with that idea.
I wonder if we will even have a Shakespeare of the 21st Century.
Once I wanted to be the greatest
No wind of waterfall could stall me
And then came the rush of the flood
Stars of night turned deep to dust
Are you a morning person or a night owl?
I am a night owl who is finding it harder and harder to get up early in the morning.
My favorite song on the album is King Of Carrot Flowers Part 2 and Part 3. I did not post that here because I know that most people do not understand that song the first time they hear it. Holland, 1945 is a better song to hear first.
Everyone I know loves the Neutral Milk Hotel Album In the Aeroplane Over the Sea. Most of the musicians I know like the Elephant 6 bands Apples In Stereo, Of Montreal, and Beulah. I wondered why I hear so few albums lately that sound like they have been influnced by these bands. I would expect to hear more of it.
Lately I have been listening to the Islands album Return To the Sea. This album shoulds like the band has been listening to Elephant 6 bands. This is one of the best albums of 2006. To bad the band has already broken up. This is worth a listen.
What are your personal memories of September 11th?
I turned on the TV because we were doing home testing. I set a Recording for ABC looking for the bug. When I saw the World Trade Centers smoking I knew something was wrong. I watched the second plane hit. I saw the people jumping from the buildings. I saw the towers come down.
I went to work that day in hope there would be confort in my co-workers. I did end up finding the comfort. I do not remeember getting any work done.
That night I came home and walked the streets of San Jose. The place seemed like a ghost town. I was trying to figure out what was going on. What was the world coming to.
I watched a lot of TV that week. It was days of coverage of 9/11. That was the only thing on TV for a week. I remember that ABC broke their coverage with The Century. It is a 12 hour documentry about some of the most important events of the 20th century. I spent that whole day watching that. It seemed like such a great move by ABC.
Those are just some of the things I remember.

The problem is that I do not use my iPod with Last FM. I think that might change my numbers.
