80 degrees and humid tonight: it felt like running in a sauna.
Currently at the top of my Safari Reading List: the html review.
Frequency of ear hair trimming is on an un-shocking uptick. 🙉
The walk-up Dairy Queen re-opened. I guess spring is back.
It feels good to be squared up on our taxes already.

Routine and focus are some of my favorite things

About a month before Christmas I played a free sample of The Bible Experience–The Easter Story–for Ethan in the car. He was attentive. It occurred to me that the full set must be available somewhere. I had obtained that sample maybe 15 years ago.
Today, I ordered this new/old copy of the The Bible Experience on CD, a 79-disc set listed as “unopened”.
It was the same price as a single Mp3 file through the Apple Book store plus shipping and tax. I read a review that the Mp3 sounded tinny and that it was a single enormous file and not fun to navigate. Shuffling through 79 compact discs and trying to rip them into a fluid structure sounded way more appealing to me.
UPDATE: 1/18/25 Got to disc 11 and the last chapter of the disc is unreadable along with the closing theme music. I tried probably a dozen times to extract the file. It is disappointing because the discs were supposed to be never opened. I wonder if it is possible that simply by being shuffled about for 17 years, it could have degraded while never having been used. Regardless, I am hopeful that there is a way to extract that final file… I have tried cleaning already. Next, I will try to get an alternative cd-rom. After that, I could try some sort of repair option…. but that makes me a little nervous.
UPDATE 2/16/25 Found someone on eBay selling individual replacement discs and bought the single disc for about $6 with shipping.
