Popping in from The Land Without Internets* to tell you very important things about media conglomerates:

- EMI has dropped Graham. This is better for him in the long run (see: Radiohead and lots of other artists who are bypassing labels so as to not get ripped off by them), but this means that his new album isn't going to be released any time soon. :( I hope eventually he re-releases his back catalogue under his own power, because--

- Fuck EMI. They get no money from me ever again.

- The US postal service are a bunch of useless assholes. This isn't really news, but FFS, when someone sends a package certified mail (meaning it requires a signature), you'd think it would actually get to me.

- I will have DSL in a few days (provided the software they're sending me actually works with Windows 98 >.>). I was very amused at AT&T's attempts to squeeze an extra $5 out of me by a) not telling me about their Basic plan and b) half-assedly trying to convince me that I need the next one up. NAH!

- Beware of YouTube. I don't know if they're actually going to hand over all those usernames and IP addresses, but it seems the media conglomerates are going to get their money from you, even if they have to shake you down in the street to do it.

:D

I know I could email, but I didn't know if you were super-stupid busy or pissed at the world or avoiding everyone on purpose and didn't want to be bothered.

No, I've just been away from JF, is all. Pissed at the world a little, but that's normal for me, heh. I'm still trying to get my goddamn funding issues ironed out.
