Despite some of the back room kitchen drama on Saturday, I should point out that the front of the house had no idea (unless they read this) of the equipment failure -- they just liked the food. While it was hardly a tragedy, it was just enough to throw me off for two courses. But, if that's the worst thing that happens while doing these tastings, then we're doing OK ;)

An interesting article from Wired called "Music Magic Found In The Shuffle" -- I had this conversation with my wife yesterday about the random button on my mp3/cd combo player from RCA. Although it "only" holds about 180 songs per CD, putting it on random has been great -- songs I've forgotton about, songs I haven't heard in ages, weird (and occasionally brilliant) segues, tofuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18139510591751893065noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5258576.post-1081017910287084582004-04-03T13:38:00.000-05:002004-04-18T11:20:38.390-04:00Showtime
A great show last night at the Valley Art Center in Chagrin Falls. Matt Borghi & Jason Sloan, Steven K. Smith and myself played at the opening night reception for the "Self-Portrait" exhibit.
My set was all improvised and the gear consisted of:
Roland GR-300 Guitar Synth (w/ E-Bow) plugged into
GSP-21 Pro Guitar rack (delay/reverb)
Roland R8 Drum Machine running into

Yesterday was spent driving 500 miles round trip to La Grange, IN and back over the course of 18 hours.
In between driving, I attended the annual Analogue Heaven Midwest 2004. Now in it's sixth year, it's a get together of synth geeks from the Analogue Heaven mailing list.

So, of course after snickering about the inability of my Win95 machine being infected with the msblast worm, comes the Sobig.f variant which has dumped an impressive amount of attachments in my spam folder (thank you old version of Eudora that doesn't open attachments).

Everything is pretty normal here, we missed the blackout by about two cities -- although I'm not sure why, as it surrounded us on all sides. *shrug*
The biggest impact of the blackout was the lack of e-mail (quel horror!) -- my ISP is in downtown Cleveland -- which is why I've kept AOL all these years, since version 1.0, which was what... 1991-92?

Today's vacation day was spent at the Waterpark, or more accurately, watching my kids at the Waterpark. The wife and I spent most of the day watching the kids float in innertubes, go down the big spiral water slides, swim in the giant pool and get alternately sunburned and rained upon.

It was an interesting hour of TV last night as ESPN aired their behind the scenes look at the SportsCenter franchise. Although Felicity Huffman and Sabrina Lloyd were nowhere to be found in the control room, nor Josh Charles on camera, it was a glimpse into the chaos of putting a live TV show on the air every night.

I just updated my music site with some links to recently uploaded material, so here are the links...
A couple of new links to some music -- the latest Microsound project "City Of The Future" (based on a audio clip from Tarkovsky's version of "Solaris") has been released and contains my piece "divided highway" (mp3).

We had the day off, the kids wanted to see "Spy Kids 3-D", and $37 later I'm exhausted...
That's $21.50 for two adults and two kids, $13 for a large popcorn, Skittles and two large sodas, and another $3 for video games afterwards. Now I know why I stay at home, rent an occasional DVD and cook at home 99% of the time.
Damn, I'm starting to sound like my father.

Three years ago, my son was visiting one of neighbors who had a pool. It wasn't a huge pool, but did have a shallow (4ft) end and a deeper (7ft) end. The kids were jumping into the pool splashing around and having a good time sitting in the inflatable inner tubes. About the time we were ready to leave and walk home, my son (who was six at the time) wanted to go over to the tofuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18139510591751893065noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5258576.post-1058987692849992612003-07-23T15:14:00.000-04:002003-07-23T15:26:05.950-04:00Ark Building
Well, now that the torrential rains have subsided (it's only raining normally at the moment), I can put away the sandbags, shop vacs and water pumps.
We got off easy, considering we were in the worst hit area (over 7 inches in some parts, about 6 in our backyard alone).

First we had the lawsuit by Spike Lee vs. Viacom over the use of the name "Spike" -- now crawling out of the woodwork is a stripper who claims that they stole the idea for Pamela Anderson's new animated cartoon "Stripperella" (Stripper by night, Crime Fighter by later in the night).

Two of my favorite things are not the same as they used to be:
Nike buys Converse -- now in the grand scheme of things, this may not appear to be a giant story -- but Converse makes the one shoe that I wear, namely Chuck Taylor All-Stars.

Man, I completely forgot to do the write up for this event (held June 22 @ the Vintage Wine Warehouse).
In addition to some fabulous wines, we also got to meet and take pictures of Bob and Monica with Andrew Firestone.
