Dusty Chalk

Arrangement? It was originally written for the piano. It is easily my favorite piano piece (or, more correctly, "suite of pieces") of all time. Her rendition is quite good so far (I've gotten just past the Old Castle), if you want a cheap entry point into the solo piano version. EDIT: Oh jesus, I just got to the Ballet of the Unhatched Chicks/Ballet of the Chicks in their Shells, this version is wonderful. EDIT #2: Okay, she doesn't do a perfect job of keeping time, but it's still quite good, and it's a modern recording so there's that. Nothing will ever match the power and pomp of a full orchestra, Ravel really did a wonderful job on that, so you kind of have to get past that to appreciate the piano version. I'm a pianist, so it wasn't difficult for me at all (to get past that as a listener). It certainly helps that I'm predisposed towards loving the sound of solo piano. That said, this has probably more dynamic range than any other piano piece I know. I also have to admit to having "grown up" with the Philips silver line version, which has both versions on one CD. I've actually been tempted to learn it, myself.

That one actually caught me off guard with a mental image.

No he doesn't, he's retired. Me: played with the little one. Some other stuff.

Read through the HD800 thread.

Yeezh.

Kitten Kibble More cat food (he's an eater)

Oh yeah, he's settling in alright. He's in toy heaven. He's like, "we don't get toys like this in Bulgaria! Oh, such fun!" And my sister's right, he does purr like a little toy chainsaw.

Don't have any good ones yet, let me see what I can come up with later. EDIT: believe it or not, this is vacuumed.

The cat has landed. On its feet, no less.

Dude, we stopped evolving when pretty much everyone started living past the age of procreation.

There's a painting?

Maybe he's put too much thought into it -- oil vapors/fire/etc.

Wait, since when was your ES-1 broken?

What's wrong with that? He was acting suspiciously, and he didn't have ID. Mall patron: "Uh, 9-1-1? Yeah, there's a really old guy here who looks like Vincent Price, only Vincent Price is dead, so either he's a zombie, or it's just some old guy, but either way, he's acting suspiciously, and for a zombie, he's moving pretty spryly, so could you come out here and taser him?"

Built in, or "turn-on-able"?

I love those.

He could be Bobby's Brutha from Anutha Mutha! Awesome. A real cutie! Too bad about his littermate.
