Ocoeur, Light as a Feather -- IDM/ambient -- totally dig this.

I know, right? She's not always easy to read, but I find myself wanting to read her anyway, because quite frankly, it's an interesting perspective. I would recommend shuffling up the order, were anyone to take on my CD collection -- you could spend a loooong time in the Klaus Schulze section, and if it ain't your cuppa tea, it's going to be a tedious fucking chore. This is not:

Rega, Project, and Music Hall were the go-to for "entry level" (by audiophile standards) turntables (Rega being #1 in my book). I don't know if any others have entered the fray since I last looked. Also several years ago (again, since I last looked, things may have changed), the de facto "entry level" phono stage was Bellari.

I've been doing a lot of meat sauces lately. Brown meat and onions, throw in crock pot with tomato sauce, add spices, turn temperature down to low, add garlic. If I add beans, I call it "chilli"; if I add olives and oregano (and other more "Italian" herbs), I call it an arrabiata variant, but otherwise the recipe is the same, lollers. I've stopped doing both (olives and beans), mostly for variety. Need to start figuring out some Thai recipes. Am also going to try that Japanese curry and some stews.

Recipe?

It's been snowing here for a couple hours, just started sticking to the pavement when I posted that. We should get a goodly amount down here.

Lollers...yeah, not a religious man myself, so was just reposting an image I was exposed to...which kinda makes it doubly lollerful...

Judgemental kitteh is judgemental

Went and visited two kitties that I might be adopting. I realize an hour is not much to go on, but they were extremely chill and adequately friendly. One even rolled over on its back and allowed me to rub its belly, which is a long way from feral, how they started.

Yeah, really, that's no worse than: or that arm thing that they did. I kinda miss that oblivion to sense of the 80's. Wait, what, that was 2011? And for some reason, this came up:

I'm pretty sure that's a secret handshake that two...yeah, I got nuthin'.

Do you have a MicroCenter near you? Just get a WD Sentinel or MyCloud or whatever they're calling it and be done with it. No muss, no fuss, done.

...back to SXSW, which appears to be replaying the Marijuana Deathsquads set.

Gazpacho, Demon

Yeah, they've been my favourite of what I've seen so far (other than some individual tracks). Is it looping now? They just mentioned Cloak Ox was coming on, I thought they played yesterday?

Yeah, it's called a compressor -- I like the FMR Audio RNC, set it on really nice and forget it.

Yeah, like I said, turned on, even in sweats eating ice cream. Also, In-N-Out in the other one.

Thanks for the link! Looks like they've only been doing this for a day or two, and I agree, very professional job.
