SURPRISE!!! It's going to be a while till you see another post. I'll be away until at least April 3rd. Again, I'll be away from any reliable computer service so I won't bother to try and post anything. Hopefully you will see something from me soon after.
No posts no music. Oh MY!. If you are desperate for a music fix check out Doctor Mooney's blog. He's always good for a few interesting tunes and info. Until then, see you in APRIL, please have a great few weeks and wish me well too.

Weekly MP3 shareAnother share of one of my MP3s. I set up a new one once a week and give you seven days to check it out. After that it will be gone and replaced by a new selection. Please don't link to this. Just click on the link and save it. Until I can make some money and buy some, if you get the message BANDWIDTH exceeded, just try again tomorrow. For this week:

Mp3 Share Kings of Leon
"Use Somebody"

or you can try here too!

The Kings of Leon, are coming to the Air Canada Centre on April 21st. Most tickets have been sold out already. They released their album called "Only By The Night" last year and it is still selling well. The song I'm sharing is called "Use Somebody" which made it to number 2 on some charts, unlike "Sex on Fire", which made it to number one on almost every chart. Both are worth the album price. Hope you enjoy my share. If you do enjoy it check out their wiki page.

From DailyHaHa.com:
A customer sent an order to a distributor for a large amount of goods totaling a great deal of money.
The distributor noticed that the previous bill hadn't been paid. The collections manager left a voice-mail for them saying, "We can't ship your new order until you pay for the last one."
The next day the collections manager received a collect phone call, "Please cancel the order. We can't wait that long."

Vision is a host based Forensic Utility. It is the GUI successor to the well-known freeware tool, Fport. This innovative new product from Foundstone shows all of the open TCP and UDP ports on a machine, displays the service that is active on each port, and maps the ports to their respective applications. Vision allows users to access a large amount of supplementary information that is useful for determining host status by displaying detailed system information, applications running, as well as processes and ports in use. Check it out.

Mp3 Share Donald Fagen
"I.G.Y."

or you can try here too!

In 1982 Donald Fagen, half of the famous "Steely Dan", released a solo album called Nightfly. The song I'm sharing is called "I.G.Y. and is short for "Internaltional Geophysical Year". If that doesn't bring anything to mind, then when you hear the lyrics "What a beautiful world this will be" I'm sure you will remember this one. If you enjoy it check out Steely Dan too.
