It’s Friday The 13th, Oh My!

Friends it’s Friday The 13th again. It’s ok to be superstitious because we live in crazy days. Have the best day possible. Good luck good people.

Men who never mentally grew up should not have weapons of mass destruction at their fingertips. They should not be president either.

War is hell and it’s fought by poor kids. Politicians seem to not care about that.

Tim Hortons On A Tuesday

Kicking the day off right with Canadian coffee legend Tim Hortons. It’s not quite a double double but it will do nicely.

Rest In Power Mark and Jaye

Two good people I know passed away recently. Mark who was a high school classmate and Jaye who was a fellow parishioner at church both passed away within the last couple of days. I liked both of them, and it saddens me that they are no longer with us. Jaye fought a 15-year battle with cancer and Mark had health issues of his own. Both men were good people. I am better for have known them and had them in my life. May their memories be a blessing. Godspeed good sirs.

Blessed are those who mourn.

Making Music With Linux and CD’s

Gnome Music

I have been making music in a way by taking some of our CD’s and ripping them to my digital collection on my laptop. I have been using the Linux program Rhythmbox to import the music and then visually organizing the albums on Gnome Music where I will play them from.

Furthermore, I am saving them in the open source Ogg Vorbis format and tagging them so they can have the album art can be found online and embedded to each title. They won’t be going online for sharing just so that people with power will know it will be for personal use only. This is a retro way of doing things I would imagine, but it is fun.
