I'd vote for him...

Well, it appears to be an elaborate hoax, but I have to admit to smiling when I heard that Christopher Walken intended to run for president in 2008. After reading this bit of news I followed the link, to www.walken2008.com. It looks serious, but after doing some more research, it unfortunately is apparently a joke site set up by random internet hooligans. One thing's certain though, people love Chris Walken.

I generally try very diligently not to talk about politics, but I think one thing everyone can agree on is that we, as a country, need more cowbell...

An interesting site I stumbled across today is www.ipodsubwaymaps.com. Apparently, if you've got an iPod Photo, you can now use it to navigate various major metropolitan subway systems with these downloadable maps. Damn...now I need to upgrade to a photo and move back to a town with a subway. Alas.

Finally, a musical discovery. I've been listening to iTunes radio over the last couple days, and have found a couple good stations. First, under the "Ambient" category, DI.fm's "Chillout" station offers a good mix of ambient/chillout stuff, good for background noise while working and such. Even better, though, under "Electronic", is DI.fm's Vocal Trance station. Both streams are offered at a max 96K, but for my crappy hearing, they both sounded fine.

One thing I heard on Vocal Trance is a DJ Doboy. Several of his mixes were played, and while he's no Armin van Buuren, it's a good cross-section of stuff. There are several styles of mixes available, and I was able to download several of them via LimeWire and BitTorrent/Pirate Bay.

That's all for today, back to work...
