In someonelse's words ...

"I'm trying to tell you something about my life
Maybe give me insight between black and white
The best thing you've ever done for me
Is to help me take my life less seriously, it's only life after all
Well darkness has a hunger that's insatiable
And lightness has a call that's hard to hear
I wrap my fear around me like a blanket
I sailed my ship of safety till I sank it, I'm crawling on your shore."
- Indigo Girls, Closer to Fine

Very much where I am in my headspace at the moment .... or more where I feal that Colin and I are ... :/ It think it makes sense ...

I know what I mean, it's just whether anyone else does ....

Oh well ... bak to work ... ;)

Download Wine tonite and get a compiled copy for your PC ;-)

Think this one shows off more of the eclecticism of our music collection ... ;-)

Spent some of the bank holiday weekend (that we've just had over here) Ripping another pile of CDs .... this time it included all the CD Singles :-)

Also finally got round to making my PC Dual Boot ... \o/ Linux + Win2k. Took the risk of re-partitioning my already filled up harddrive ... and it worked ;-) Was using Mandriva Download edition, which has support for NTFS Filesystems built in along with the ability to re-partition them during set-up, providing you have de-fragged and done a full chkdsk first ;-)

It installed fairly straight forwardly .. next step is getting my bloody Tablet to work ;-) there are no Linux native drivers for it ... might have to get the coding hands out again

The other thing that needs to be done, is to get installed Wine or Findout what WineX is like, I need to get some Windows apps up and running the ones I use the most .. PageMaker, Photoshop & Illustrator ... (Or get Gimp working properly with my Tablet that would cover for photoshop) PageMaker is a must as the Linux DTP Package Scribus is just not quite as good yet :(
