Caution.. Caution.. my typing fingers are flailing wildly..

A while ago on The Triforce forums (not affiliated with Nintendo in any way) it was suggested that we all make a mix CD and post it to two other forum members. It was all organised by one of the members, so we who opted in were sent two addresses while our address was sent to two other members. It was kind of supposed to be a bit anonymous, but being the only aussie on the boards makes it a bit obvious to my victims recipients who sent it.. but oh well. I received one recently from a member, it’s a really good mix. Some stuff I know, some I kinda recognise and some completely new to me.. which makes the other part of it even more interesting.. there was no track listing included so I’ll have to at some point see if I can work out what’s what on there. There’s certainly some artists that I’d like to find out more about. So, all of you who may be part of a wider community.. if you want an idea for a community-wide activity, there you have it.

Oh, and if there’s someone out there saying ‘omfg you gave your address to the internet now you’ll be stalked and whatnot’.. it was my PO box address, and anyone with even the most basic of internet stalking skills can find that easily enough.

If anyone’s missed it from the twitter feed over on the right there, I found out last night that glass saucepans don’t bounce. Sigh.. this means that two of the three cooktop vessels I brought over with me have broken. One in transit, one last night. It also means that there’s some little bits of glass on the floor in my kitchen, because I’ve no broom or vacuum cleaner. Sucks to be me… Also, as good as the surviving 3.5 litre pot is for making a big batch of green curry, it’s a little excessive for a single serving of shell pasta. I think I need to go shopping this weekend…

Very small clouds that look like they have been broken off bigger clouds are called scuds.

So now you know…
