A co-worker is laughing somewhere over the forest of cubicels that have become my maze for me, a mouse.

I can hear the constant hum of the 3 giant HVAC units on the roof that supply clean, class 100, air to our aspetic facility, and dumps the rejected air into the offices.

I can hear neighbors typing away, probably working, which is what I should be doing. Yet, the lingering knowledge that I need to leave early today to catch a plane to LA is keeping me from being productive.

I hear the rattle of the broken fridge in the breakroom. Trying to be a good little heat pump, but because every one enjoys opening it every 3 seconds, it really doesn't stand a chance.

I hear an engineer two offices down talking with pep as though she has just been hired into the best job ever. She is talking to her office mate who has a cleft pallet, and thus a really bad lisp. Yet, for some reason he always seems to talk as loudly as possible.

I hear my boss yelling at me for not working, and typing on this silly 'Poly site... but I can't help it!

I am listening to the song of my life, and while it is all fine and dandy, it is a song I have been listening to for far too long. Funny how the tempo changes, but the beat never does...

Oh, well, I am working on putting together some auditions for new musicians, and we'll see how that goes.

Cheers.

Japher, that borders on poetry, I think.

nothing right now. but on the way home from work last night I was listening to Slayer- Seasons in the Abyss. I'll probably listen to another Slayer album today.

[Agathon]

I've taken a break from Classical since the Stones' Concert.

Right now I'm listening to the Stones (I bought 40 licks as all my Stones albums are back in NZ) and to Bachman Turner Overdrive (The Guess Who played at the concert and I was completely won over by Bachman's guitar playing). Also Lucky Peterson ("I'm Ready") and Ry Cooder ("Jazz".

I'm having a hard time getting the Matrix Reloaded double disc out of my player but Mudvayne, Kode IV, and KMFDM have been getting some air time lately as well. If I have to listen to the radio, I tune to NPR.

IW, what's LWP5?

None of your business...

[Immortal Wombat]

Listen Without Prejudice Version 5
A pair of CDs each consisting of 14 tracks chosen by 7 people thus:

1. Each participant submits 2 tracks. Theme is one from the heart, one for the feet. In other words one track that means something to you emotionally, one that makes you want to dance (addendum: or drive really fast on a racecourse).
2. There is no time limit but don't be a **** about it. If you pick two 30 minute tracks just because you can we'll call you names and stuff.
3. Clearly state which track is the "feet" track and which is the "heart" track.

Once tracks are submitted, they are burnt onto CD and distributed to all participants.

[*End Is Forever*]

Wouldn't that be 14 tracks submitted by 14 people...?
