What I need to tag on my music: Genre and Year.

I've got every thing else nicely tagged, but I always get pissed off when going through and trying to determine genre. Years I can do though, it will just take time.

I know right what you mean. I have comps from you, actually, that I have retagged exactly like what what you're talking about.

BUT in iTunes, if you have a comp, like, say, Kompakt Total 4, you just tag it as a comp, and it's automatically refiled into your compilations folder under the album title instead of by artrist.

How does it display on your ipod? I know you use playlists, but if you are just going through to the artist.

That's the one thing I hate about my zen micro, I want to be able to go through album artist instead of just artists.

I finished taking the MPRE. Now (assuming I pass) all I have to do is graduate and take and pass the bar and then I can be an attorney.

What? No running the gauntlet? No "unblinking eye"?

Good job Jenny!!!

I've been hanging around the Damen/Milwaukee/North clusterfuck, and I can tell you that the hipsters are officially out of hibernation.

I allllmost went to Filter after my test but then decided I couldn't cope with the hipsters so I went home and ate ice cream instead.

― Jenny, Saturday, 10 March 2007 21:18 (seventeen years ago) link

Also: Thanks, Nick!

― Jenny, Saturday, 10 March 2007 21:18 (seventeen years ago) link

I was at Filter drinking a frozen mocha thing, reading and people-watching. We could have hung out.

I was there for a few hours today too! I walked to my gym from the Western stop because the trains were backed up and waiting ~25 minutes to go one stop down the line. Afterwards I went to Sultan's which was packed as hell and then rode the Milwaukee bus back home.

And if your computer truly makes files disappear, you prolly need a new computer.

I've been thinking this for a while: that argument doesn't make much sense, unless you're coming from the standpoint of iTunes' infallibility.

What I think happened is that because these files were in .wma format, iTunes took it upon itself to make convert them to AAC (as is its wont), and during the conversion something went awry and then they went away.

And then tonight my iPod froze. Would do absolutely nothing until the battery wore down. It seems OK now. Prolly because I don't have a Mac.

Maybe a trip to the Genius Bar is in order??

― dan m, Sunday, 11 March 2007 07:45 (seventeen years ago) link

The correct time is 9:34 A.M.

It's taken me a while to establish this.

I bought an alarm clock that automatically updates for DST, but I thought maybe that since DST was early this year, it might not know. Then that cast doubt on all other clocks, except for the analog clock on the wall that tells me that it is 8:35.

"Some douche is throwing eggs on the train."

-Text message from Courtney this morning as she is headed to the South Side Parade.

― Jesse, Sunday, 11 March 2007 14:41 (seventeen years ago) link

Apparently there was a guy throwing hard-boiled eggs at the ceiling on the train.

RIP Jesse's iPod
Fall 2004-March 2007

:( Can't afford new player. Maybe I'll take it to the Genius Bar. If that doesn't work, I will start saving my pennies and thinking about next steps.

Maybe this guy.

So I have to go to a birthday party late afternoon, so I think I'll show up instrument-less today and try to do something with what's there. I'm guessing if we're tracking and not just playing a song together live I could use whatever's there.

― Eazy, Sunday, 11 March 2007 17:29 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm going to bring a mini keyboard, kazoo, slide whistle, recorder, clarinet, melodica, etc. -- so there will be stuff for you to play with.

I love living close to the lake. Our walk today.

Thanks. This did the trick.

Jenny-- I love you. Thank you. Youtube how we know God loves us.

There is a link on this page to a guy doing a comparative tasting of Thunderbird, Boone's Strawberry Hill, Riunite Lambrusco, and Franzia box wine.

― Jesse, Monday, 12 March 2007 05:15 (seventeen years ago) link

Boone's rated highest (least lowest). Then T-bird, Franzia, and a distant 4th least-worst: Riunite Lambrusco.

He made a mistake though--it's Riunite ON ICE that is so nice.

I listened to the results of CHILX All-Star Jam #1 last night and they sounded a lot better than they thought they would. The recording sounds kind of fucked up but in a cool way - the drums and the keyboard are distorted but nice and fuzzy and analog. The take of the actual song is good, but I'm also pretty happy with the two "jams" I recorded. I'll put them online this afternoon/evening so people can hear what we've got going so far.
