chilly!

64 degrees in the CCC office means it's a working-from-home day.

And, indeed, a working-from-home WEEK if they don't fix it this time around. It's getting ridiculous. It was mighty chilly last week, and I think it's even chillier this week.

(no subject)

Oh mistress mine! where are you roaming?
Oh! stay and hear; your true love's coming,
That can sing both high and low.
Trip no further, pretty sweeting;
Journeys end in lover's meeting,
Every wise man's son doth know.

What is love? 'tis not hereafter;
Present mirth hath present laughter;
What's to come is still unsure:
In delay there lies no plenty;
Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty,
Youth's a stuff will not endure.

-- William Shakespeare

Trevor Horn

Sampling laws had not yet been invented, and Horn stuck a skull and crossbones flag over the Fairlight to promote the image of being a pirate, stealing existing recordings and turning them into something new. He also pioneered the use of the Linn drum machine, which sounded the death knell for live drummers. "You could tell the Linn what to do, which was unbelievable because before then you had to tell the drummer what to do and he was generally a pain in the arse."

Tee hee.

(From The Guardian.)

guitar

I can play Iron & Wine's "Naked As We Came". (Free MP3 download linked in from there.)

So so pretty.
