- Downloaded some Pugacheva and Kirkorov for my mom's trip. But when she asked me to download some chanson, like "Shufutinsky and Krug," I couldn't do it - that's beyond me.
- Mom said that after three pregnancies, my dog clearly needs a tummy tuck. The person this is addressed to knows.
- Outside the window, grass is burning on a massive scale, there's a terrible smell of burning in the room. People living in Latvia have this mentality - they absolutely have to burn the grass every year, knowing that hundreds of houses will burn down and dozens of people will die.
- Soulseek downloads just super. Sending rays of happiness and joy to the Realtek company (network cards) in Taiwan and to the author of Soulseek in the US.
- Downloading a Metallica DVD-A from a cool tracker BNBT out of curiosity. For those living under a rock, let me tell you - DVD-Audio is one of two new high-quality audio formats. The second is Sony SACD. According to people in the know, DVD-Audio is way better than SACD, no matter what Sony says.
- The TV series "Andromeda", after the firing of the original writer and creator Robert Wolfe, turned into complete crap in its third season. I don't even know if it's worth watching anymore. Is this the fate of all sci-fi shows? I remember LEXX died off completely by the fourth season - still a bit longer, though. But as for the beautiful and calm western space opera Firefly, they didn't even let the creator ruin it - they stopped filming after the 15th episode, and aired only 12 at all.
