"A compass whose needle points towards rabbit"

An old meme I thought I'd try: randomize my entire music player, list first 10 tracks to come up:

J.S. Bach, Sinfonia in C major (BWV 196)
Jem Moore & Ariane Lydon, "Lemming Merengue"
Patty Griffin, "Peter Pan"
Jean-Marie Leclair, Première Récréation de Musique (Op.6) - 2. Gracieusement
Trout Fishing in America, "Alien in My Nose"
George Frideric Handel, Concerto Grosso Op.6 No.6 in g minor (HWV 324)
Anna Nalick, "Consider This"
J.S. Bach, Well Tempered Clavier volume 2, prelude No.2 in c minor
The Secret Sisters, "Tomorrow Will Be Kinder"
Gordon Lightfoot, "Race Among the Ruins"

I've only 4412 tracks on this iPod, because that's all the space it has, deliberately heavy with stuff from my classical collection (which is itself slanted Baroque) for work purposes. Of the rest, three are from mixes from others, which gives me pause.

Subject quote from unknown source, though, I suspect sovay had something to do with it.

Is one of the mixes mine? Just curious.

My original MP3 player is the one I keep my classical on, and usually it's just a folder with whatever piece my choir is going to work on in the near future, or is working on now. I like it for that because the sound on it is really good, and also its shuffle function is really poor (I use the iPod Shuffle for that, and for when I need something even tinier to carry).

Thought of you and Janni while at World Fantasy!

At least one. :-)

It would have been interesting, if circumstances allowed, to return to DC again -- haven't been back since the last WFC there. (Possibly I could have steeled myself to actually visit my high school, instead of just walking past it.)

I haven't decided if I'm going to try and go next year. I think it's Saratoga?

[larryhammer]

Which would be cool. We're more likely to try for Sirens, though. TBD should be up for traveling, by that point.
