My wife actually said I was quiet during her supper last night. Working on some depression I guess. Sometimes better not to share.
So.

Here’s some links I have been/am looking at:
7500 shoppers unknowingly sold their souls [link] to Fox News report (not a video)….
Handy dandy guide to impact of different kinds of tunings (I know, I know, you’re dying to know this): [link] “The Wolf at our heels: the centuries long struggle to play in tune” by Jan Swafford Salon.com
Books still matter to presidents. [OOPS… this link was wrong but is now corrected link ] “For Obama and past presidents: the books they read shape policies and perception” by Tevi Troy Washington Post
Roque Dalton is new (to me) radical poet who died in 1975. [link] to a long poem (Tavern: Conversatio) of his in which he uses the language of young Czechs, W. Europeans and Latin Americans to write some cool poetry.

If you still care about the Ipad and the Kindle [link] to “Publish or Perish: Can the Ipad topple the Kindle and save the book industry?” by Ken Auletta New Yorker.
I am the only one I know who checks online MP3 blogs for new music. I found a couple of interesting ones yesterday: [link] to the official blog of the Analog Arts Ensemble [link] to Theoretical Music
The first not only had some interesting popular music type downloads, it also linked in Handel’s entire Laudate Pueri which I promptly downloaded and listened to.
Theoretical music sends viewers to Mediafire.com [link] which seems to be one of those barely legal file hosts which provide online space for files. If you mess with this you will need to be able to unzip .rar files. I downloaded a charming little free program called Rare Extract Frog [link to download.com page where you can get it]
