Re: preferences in audiobook narrators. Hm. As a general rule, I'll take an American dude over an American chick, and a British chick over either of the previous, but a British dude beats all. That's interesting.

The screen of the closed-circuit TV goes all snowy when I download stuff over the wireless network.

Weary, stale, and flat -- but, hey! At least it's pretty profitable.

Belated resolution: listen to more whole albums and operas. The (ok, damn it, admittedly cool) announcement of the iPod Shuffle has reminded me of how much I abuse my own mp3 player's shuffle function, at the expense of continuity, among many other things. I'm addicted to the stormy seaness of it all -- but I'm starting to feel what I'm missing, and remembering long bus rides with the Trout Quintet and gym class with The Final Cut and airport layovers full of Cosi Fan Tutte. So, first-off, it means setting aside a substantial block of time to listen without distractions, no bad thing. But, second, it means the chance to lose myself for an hour or two. It's an ability which, I've started realizing lately, used to be one of my few saving virtues, and has slowly diminished through lack of practice, leaving a feckless scattered void. So eep. So albums.
