Also, for Christmas RM got me a USB turntable so I can convert my old vinyl to mp3s, and I started working on that this weekend. It's kinda fun to look through my old records -- Sinead O'Connor, Sade, XTC -- stuff I haven't listened to ages but knew by heart once upon a time.
(One of the things I dislike about digital media is how easy it is to skip the tracks you don't like. I do it, too -- because who wants to sit through a lame song when it's so easy to skip it? -- but back in the day, I'd listen to an entire side of an album or cassette, and pretty soon I'd know the obscure songs just as well as I knew the hits. Once upon a time I knew every word to every song on the Eurythmics' first album, and I *still* know those songs better than I know most of the songs on the OKGO CD I bought just last year.)
