Music!
More Emo than Emo, here's an all-women's choir, called Scala, doing a cover of Radiohead's Creep, years before American network television decided that choral renditions of popular songs were cool enough for prime time. Choral music was always cool. Jeez, where have you been?
And where have I been? This is Gogol Bordello doing a song that is too much fun, Start Wearing Purple. Of course, you probably knew that already; I was informed earlier tonight that this song was a bit of a hit for the band a year or two ago, which makes me wonder exactly how something so gypsydelicioius ever made it to commercial radio.
And as if that wasn't enough, Orkestar Slivovica is going to learn the song - and I get to sing it!! I am wringing my hands together in anticipatory glee at the thought of concerts yet to come ... Movies! Well, sort of ...
From Famous and/or Foreign Director comes this heartwarmingdramaticcomedyromance. Starring Academy Award-Winning Actor, Academy Award-Winning Actress, Actor Desperately Trying for an Academy Award, Older Actress in a Comeback Attempt, and Beloved Actor who Died This Year, it's ... MOVIE TITLE. Overused adjective, multiple exclamation marks.
Computers! I just scored something good. I think. I hope. It's an eMac, G4 processor, 40GB hard drive, CD burn unit built in; it comes with Leopard 10.5 (although it's been recommended that I install 10.4 instead), Sibelius and a few other basics. For free. Now, for all you computer types, I ask you: is this a good computer? I don't need anything particularly fancy, just something upon which I can work out music scores, some word processing and zip around on the Internetwebs. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
