Diablo II is getting tough. Any possibility of addiction is not coming true. The shoutbox breaks the Cynthia Says compliance, so this page is no longer compliant with those standards and the button has been removed. The tapes are all backed up. They rock.

Sorry for the lack of updates. A few weeks ago, I won a lot of 20 tapes off eBay, and I’m about halfway done backing them up to my computer, holding the seller off on a rating. So far all work and great music. The tapes are various obscure and popular 80s pop-metal and pop-rock [...]

It’s like you “try to feel better”, and you think you do (or you want to think you do), but then you get sad again and it just feels weird. From an era of better weather, which I keep praying that it will return and these horrible Januaries and Februaries will go away forever: Music [...]

Unhappy being forced to retag all my ripped CDs the past two days *again* to fit the ridiculous "media library" concept. When are they gonna come out with Word & Excel File Library? We’ll all be forced to tag "Resume", "Recipe", "Accounting", "Charts", "Home Business", "Insurance", and everyone else will be confused! But just like [...]
