Greetings and salutations people. Hope y'all are recovered from the Yuletide/Nu-Year festivities. Personally I'm more than glad to see the back of 2008, the year that for me became dominated by my right knee. It's still not back to normal but hopefully will be at some point in the new year.
I'm a few days late with my New Year address because my computer decided to blow up on me last week (as did the sonic chariot just before Christmas). I only got it back from being repaired a couple of hours ago, but hopefully normal service can now resume.
Incidentally, I've had a few emails concerning the Listening to: headings at the top of each post. The more inquisitive amongst you have discovered that some of 'em are actually links, and have asked me why some don't seem to work properly.
This is because not all of them actually are links, pop-kids. I occasionally link to, for instance, a piece of Youtube footage that shows a great or better version of whatever I'm currently listening to. All done on a fairly whimsical basis. Some of the pics are links too, but again, not all.
Today you get Bowie doing Footstompin' on the Dick Cavett Show in '74. They don't make 'em like that any more.
So, here's to 2009. Onward™...
