From Kristen's website:

Amateur. If I get the pieces for a new system, that sucker is up and running something useful, or at least downloading pr0n, within twenty-four hours, max. (Insert comment re: having no life riiiiight about... here.)

> Israel Kanakawiwo'ole singing 'Somewhere Over The Rainbow/What A
> Wonderful World' (which warms my heart)

Yes, but have you noticed how he pulls a William Burroughs with the words? Snip, snip... flutter... gather... reassemble... The beginning of one line leads jarringly into the end of a completely different one. Hearing that happen to E.Y. Harburg's immortal lyrics just jets me completely out of the mood, every time. Pity. (By the way, this tune and many other cool ones are on the playlist at Radio Paradise. Even if you're bothering with Windows, don't bother with Windows Media - get yourself a copy of a good Shoutcast-compatible player, and go to town.)
