In which overdoing it is good.
I recently asked my brother Jayrob Jethro Cutlet Clampett Morgan Smith the Third (FEE!), as we were chatting about his new job via Gtalk, if he had any Pat Metheny I could have, as I’d been having a hankerin’ to listen to some Metheny.
He said maybe.
I said he should maybe upload me some tasty stuff to my server.
He wondered if he still had the usr/pwd.
I said they hadn’t changed.
He said okay, he’d upload me some jazz and stuff.
I said way cool, dude, thanks.
Today I logged into goblinbox via FTP and looked into the folder I’d told him to use. He’d uploaded 476.6 MB of music for me! That’s 476.6 MB while still zipped, bitches!
On the subject of DRM – which we weren’t on, but whatever – you know what’s stupid? What’s stupid is that if he, my brother, Jayrob, took his lawfully store-bought CDs and duped them and mailed them to me it would be legal, but giving me the same content in this format? Is probably illegal.
The mind utterly fucking boggles.
Anyway, man I love my brother, that fucker.

I think i remember something about ownership. If one owns a cd, one can lend said cd to friend. If one rips said cd, and shares it with peeps as mp3 or what have you, one might get a stern talkin to. But… if one steals said cd and allows everyone to take it from them, one goes to jail, especially if one sells the data for money and or waffles.
However none of these apply here. I will NOT receive waffles… and I’ve never heard of music.
You said I was the best sister ever, but you never sent me my celebratory waffle. -m
well… um. MONKEY BANANA RAFFLE!!

you should put a home link on all your pages. the home page is why i visit… kinda be cool if i could get there simply.
The logo? The giant logo image up there in the left-hand corner of every page? It’s, like, linked to the root. True story. (…is that not apparent? I always link the goblin logo to the home page. Perhaps I need better navigation? Ack!) -m
yeah… i found the graphic after i posted. i’m an idiot. Any way! look, half a gig is minimal. Perhaps… I should send you a DVD. Those are 4.7 gigs. Iffin you would like some groovy tunes.
You know… some times I miss the T.K.R. wonder what he’s up to…
My ex has his number, want me to get it for you? He’s in WY, married to Devi, father of two. -m
