This Past Episode of Heavyweight

The latest episode of Heavyweight lives up to the title. It is a very heavy episode. Holy cow. This episode, for me at least, once again proves why podcasting in the most exciting medium in the world.

Moby's Wait For Me...Almost Ten Years Old

I went to my cd rack this evening, and pulled Moby's Wait For Me album to listen to. It's the first Moby record I ever listened to, and it is still my favorite. But what blew me away this evening, was when I looked at its copyright date. 2009. Wait for Me is almost TEN YEARS OLD.

It's utterly unbelievable. Yet, I feel like I've always had this record. It's always been there for me. In my opinion, that's the definition of a true classic. A timeless quality that never leaves it. Below are a few of my favorite tracks from the album. I cannot recommend to you enough to check them out. Some absolutely incredible music.

A Cool Story About a Book That Finally Got a Home

I came across this article yesterday afternoon in my daily wanderings on the interweb. A bookstore in England tweeted about how they had finally sold a book, which had been on their shelves for 27 years. The reactions to this story are absolutely wonderful, but one of them really caught my attention.

One Twitter user suggested going into bookstores, and asking them to bring you the book that has been on their shelves the longest, and buy that book. The user, who goes under the name of BeckieofBubbles said "You know when people go to dog shelters and say I want to take home the dog who has been here the longest. I'm going to this in bookstores. 'Can you point me to the book you've had here the longest?' That will be some random book collection!" I totally agree, and I may steal this idea. The randomness of what you might get has really peaked my curiosity.

Check out the article below.

A Whole Month Without a Post

Whoa!!! I've gone almost the entire month of November without a single post here. Terrible! Life has been busy. I've been finishing up a number of work projects lately, which has caused me to work late. Additionally I just adopted for my family a two month old kitten. Her name is Rosie, and she demands a lot of attention.

I'm currently working on a new podcasting project, which I will get into more details on in my next posting. Always need to have topics to write about. Can't write it all down in a single posting.
