senoritafishBleah. Trying to get our 135 page sampling manual to print (because we have a new scientific aide starting soon) on a different printer and it's not cooperating. I don't want to have go through the damn thing and change all the margins. I wonder if it'll print as a PDF document? Hmmm.... (tries that). It's taking forever....(looking at the print queue). Jeez, does the whole thing have to load into the buffer before it starts? It's been 10 minutes and 6 mb out of 17mb! *Grumble, grumble*
My father loves to order stuff off the television. When he got a CD he said he was going to give to my brother, it sat on the counter for a month or two and he never did anything with it. I thought it sounded interesting and decided to give it a listen before he did. This is actually kind of neat. Twelve women from the People's Republic of China, playing Celtic music on traditional Chinese instruments. Among other things - Coldplay's Clocks is included, and some songs that sound Middle Eastern. The more Asian stuff is very soothing. There is one instrument that starts out sounding like a vocal, until I realize it's some sort of a string. Very trippy. The album comes with a DVD too, which I haven't looked at yet. I think I'm going to have get Doug another copy of this, because I'm absconding with this one.
edit: except for the last track - New Classicism. Does anyone remember Hooked on Classics? Erk.
