As we intended, www.danfrickmusic.com launches tonight as well! The song that I used in my movie is called “Pain in the Elbow.” The song is played by Scott Fox, and appears on Dan’s album. As you may recall, I got to hear Dan play about a year and a half ago, when he flew back…

I was talking to Jamie (aka rypunked) yesterday, and we were talking about loaning books out to friends. She was trying to find some bookmark system that allowed you to record who you loaned out a particular book to. A simplified library checkout/tracking system, if you will.

I got little sleep last night. But this morning, on the walk to the train, the sun was out, the air was crisp, and I had Page France looping on my iPod. I was smiling like an idiot, looking up at the sky and feeling pretty fantastic. The clouds were incredibly unusual this morning –…

Today, during work, I heard a few songs coming from Ben’s computer that made me perk up my ears. He had been surfing around a few mp3 blogs, and was listening to some of the stuff he had found. Before the day was out, I had two songs that I really enjoyed, right off the…

As is the annual tradition for National Poetry Month, the Academy of American Poets is giving out free posters. Go and place your order before they run out! I was delighted to see that, right near the center, they cited the closing lines of Robert Hayden’s Those Winter Sundays, a great, great poem. A long…

I made some great progress tonight. Exported I don’t know how many versions of the movie, and got a lower quality copy that I’m comfortable with displaying. I’ve got some more work to do in terms of text/content, but I’m really, really close. Some research into making this thing available via bit torrent is in…
