“I’m One” from the epic masterpiece Quadrophenia. As a tremendous Who fan I have to say that if you think Tommy is better than Quadrophenia then you are listening to music wrong.
Changes
Posted on April 5, 2012 Written by 1 Comment
I just converted this blog from one blogging system (Serendipity) to another (WordPress) – the reasons are many and I may write more about that in a future post but I wanted to just let you all know as things are obviously a bit different.
A couple of notes:
I did lose a bunch of your comments during the migration. I really hate that it happened and am going to try to continue to fix it.
This isn’t the final design of the site, it’s just the default for now until I do a redesign.
I had wanted to do this for a bit but the process seemed overwhelming. I found a script that was supposed to help ease the migration and noticed that the author also was available to do it via contract so I went that route instead. If you have a Serendipity blog that you want migrated to wordpress I recommend getting in touch with Abdussamad over at abdussamad.com – he was great to work with and it was really quite reasonable considering the trouble I would have created trying to do it myself.
Hoping this leads to more regular posting here.

First Impression – Port of Morrow
Posted on March 20, 2012 Written by Leave a Comment
Running through Port of Morrow today, the new release from The Shins. It might change with repeated listens but so far it is like watching an episode of Law & Order I have seen a billion times. It’s there and playing, but I don’t really need to pay attention because nothing really interesting is happening.
It’s not bad. It just isn’t grabbing me.

I got a very nice holiday gift from my friends and former colleagues over at Batchbook. They are rebranding so this is the first time I've had the chance to see the new logo in place - way to go! So the gift seems to be some sort of high end e-ink … [Continue reading]
Thinking Out Loud

You know when you go see live music and the people in the band start talking to the audience, it's always a bit odd when the performer yells out something like 'We Love You." Â I can see a "Thanks a lot" or something but the expression of love just … [Continue reading]
Happy ChakaKhanakah

Apparently last night was the first night of ChakaKhanakah, the annual celebration by jews of the wonderfully talented Chaka Khan. Oddly, even though many folks posted holiday wishes, I found there to be very little recognition or mention of Chaka … [Continue reading]

About 2 years ago I wrote about how I thought this blog was broken. I was frustrated with spammers and junk traffic and really thought it best that I just cease posting here. I created Sensory Dispensary as a place to continue to share things that I … [Continue reading]
