What The What?
The recruiter who set me up for this ass-kicking now says I should expect a call about a second interview with the company, early next week.
Strange days indeed. Most peculiar, momma.
Moon Surrenders!

NASA reports that our bombing campaign has been a success. After billions of years of withholding information about the state of its water retention capabilities, the moon was forced today to reveal the truth: it is in fact in possession of a large quantity of water, though in a form that is not readily converted to the liquid water that we are most concerned about.
NASA says it will continue to investigate the data, to see if the moon is hiding anything else we should know about.
Oh iTunes, Why do you torment me so?
One of the many half-assed features in iTunes is the way it handles album artwork. If you ripped the CDs yourself, iTunes won't associate an album cover with the songs, and then you wont have anything to look at while the song plays! Oh noes. But, you can tell iTunes to go forth into the wilderness and gather the album covers unto itself. It does a terrible job of this. Just terrible.
For its latest failure, iTunes chose this cover from independent country duo, "Barrett & Smith":

...for Elliott Smith's self-titled album.
I checked out the MP3s to see if there was a chance they didn't contain enough info to identify the album. The artist is "Elliott Smith", the album is "Elliott Smith", the composer is "Elliott Smith".
On what planet does "Elliott Smith" = "Barrett & Smith", three times ?
iTunes exhibits failure.

Rain!
I can't remember the last time there was 48 hours of solid rain. And there's more on the way ? Sweet!
