I’m very pleased that Logitech’s Squeezeplay software version 7.5.1 is working well on both my Dell Inspiron 530 desktop and Acer Aspire One netbook, with minor quirks that are easy to get around. Previous versions had definite problems, but now I can access my Squeezebox server in places besides the Logitech Squeezebox Radio in the bedroom.
How’s that “drill, baby, drill” thing workin’ out for ya?
Lia Pamina and Robbie Leff have new songs! First, Amanecer, a 60’s song by Spanish star Jeanette, who is Belgian on her father’s side (like Prue Bury!)…
Amanecer by Lia & Robbie – The most popular videos are here
… and Sunday Mondays, a cover of a song by Vanessa Paradis. I love this one!
I hereby declare Chuck to be one of the three most enjoyable TV shows I’ve ever watched. Is the series ridiculous? Of course it is. But is it excellent? Funny? And very smart? Absolutely.
(Sheesh. Look at that. The episode was available when I embedded it Friday night, and it’s already gone.)
(No! Wait! It’s back!)
(No! It’s gone again!)
Ya know, despite the appallingly stupid fight at the drunk party (are there any other kinds of fights at drunk parties?), I think I’m going to see Iron Man 2 again, especially because at the last minute Eric couldn’t go, due to something going on at school. I wouldn’t have gone at all, but I’d already bought tickets and Bismo was there with his son. This is the opening scene and, trust me, it’s much more impressive in IMAX than it is here, with 640×272 pixels. If you click the full screen button the player should hold the correct shape of the image.

P.S. For the record, I have not been in a fight since last August, and the last time before that was 1977.
Today’s tech trap: Anybody who tells you that older slimline (laptop-style) CD-ROM drives have trouble reading CD-R’s, even the ones installed in servers, is correct.
