G’s home!!! WOO WOO!!!!!

Okay folks..I know I said I was abandoing TitleTunes…and I did. But I couldn’t drop it. Someone suggested I make it a toolbar, and I did. It’s in “testing” right now, but I hope to have a 1.0 version out sometime this weekend. Here’s a sneak peek…

That’s in my taskbar…Already it’s of date. Show/Hide now switches text depending on the state of iTunes. So it just says “Show iTunes” if iTunes is hidden.

Once again, written in vb.net with iTunes Windows SDK. Thanks Apple.
Source won’t be available right now., but may be in the future. I’m all open for suggestions though. If there’s something you’d like to see in the toolbar, let me know, I’ll see what I can do.

So I decided to assuage my downloaders guilt today and bought the new They Might Be Giants album from an independent store. I get in the car and immediately notice the cracked CD case, I just paid $17 w/tax for this thing and it’s broken. Then it takes me about 5 minutes just to get that stupid sticker off the edge of the case. That’s it. From now on I only buy digital. There’s nothing special in the liner notes anyhow..just a bunch of pretty pictures. For $9.99 I could have avoided all that crap.

In an effort to provide a fair and balanced view I present the following article.
Fifty-nine Deceits in Fahrenheit 9/11

I consider myself very liberal, although I find myself leaning libertarian occasionally. I enjoyed Fahrenheit 9/11 and think everyone should see it regardless of how you feel about Bush or Moore. Is the movie the absolute truth? Probably not. Is the Bush administration’s rhetoric the truth. I doubt it. Is this article the truth? Most likely not. The truth lies somewhere in between. As an intelligent individual you must read multiple sources and come to a conclusion on your own. No matter what you read, it will be biased and spun to further the agenda of the author. Often I don’t think this is intentional, but in the case of the above it most certainly is.

I present this article merely because I’ve seen to many detractors of Moore simply call the film a lie without having seen it. This article quotes the film and points out what it calls “deceits.” They’re really just spin and clever film making. It’s no different than Bush claiming Kerry supports a higher gas tax because he supported it 10 years ago (not exact, but I’m too lazy to look up the details).

Now before you start flaming me with comments, I am not seeking to debate, and I won’t debate. I just wanted to share something I found interesting.

Okay people, it’s that time again…I’m working on another show with Jobsite Theater. The show opens Aug. 6 and is called Delusion of Darkness and comes from the distorted mind of Portland Oregon Playwright Steve Patterson..

All are invited to attend and the earlier you get your tickets the better! Jobsite shows have been selling out like crazy!
