yhlee, an amusing L5R drawing.
PBAL note: Wore Rome again, and am wondering if I like it enough to put it on my bottle list. It's a lemony-herb-pine thing on me, and I liked it. I still have some in the imp, so I have a few more tries to make a decision.
I still haven't figured out my DMC3 problem, much to my continuing irritation. It seems to be leading me into a skein of software issues that require me to actually care about how my computer works. (As a dedicated Apple fan, this is foreign to my nature.)
I consoled myself by downloading a free compilation of Catholic heavy metal songs titled Praising Him Loudly. Reader, you may be surprised that such a thing existed but as soon as the idea occurred to me I realized it had to exist: Catholicism is filled with metal ore. I was thrilled to find PHL, as it gives me a chance to sample a bunch of different bands and decide who I want to hear more of. My early favorite is a thrash-metal group called Seven Sorrows, but I'm not rushing to judgment. My only real disappointment so far is that the bass lines seem a little pallid, but this might be an effect of my MacBookPro's sound capabilities. I'll probably have to figure out a way to get it on a CD playable disk so that I can give it a spin in my real sound system.
ETA: Whoa, iTunes has an equalizer. Who would guess? Set it to 'rock' and will listen to the album again tomorrow.
