plastic bag, middle class, polyethylene...

... decaffeinate, unleaded, keep all surfaces clean.

Today, I took my crate of empty beer and a couple other I found around the house to Albert Heijn (big grocery store chain) and for €7.30! Theres a this great machine that you put the crates in and it measures weight or something... anyway, its all very good because you get store credit and then you GET money back. I bought bread and coffee, but it seems like everything in Holland is instant, (yes, Gentle Reader, instant coffee, I buy INSTANT COFFEE) prepackaged crap; bent on efficiency and speed. Eating is a dubious chore, not a prized time of relaxation and enjoyment. But, the grass is seriously always greener.

The point of this post was to inform you that I have uploaded a ZIP file of about 76MB worth of the music I’ve made this year, so you can hear what I’ve been up to. I hope this works. If not, maybe someone can inform me of a good FTP site that I can load this stuff onto.

Enjoy,

Were you drunk when you wrote this (you might want to proof before you post... or not)?

Seriously though... a lesson about hyperlinks.
When you post a link, try this:
Type the words: Eric's Music

Highlight it.

Go to the tools above the text box and hit the link symbol (looks like an infinity symbol).

Paste url (including http://) into the dialog box.

You now have a link people can click on! Easy!


If you feel really bold, click over to "Edit Html" tab for your post, scroll down and find the link you're embedded in the posting and in between the " and > symbols at the end of the URL, insert the following (WITH the space at the beginning):

target="_blank"

Then when your readers click the link, it opens in a new window and they don't have to navigate back to your blog because it's still open! Easy!

If, by any chance, you're using Safari and there aren't a lot of tools at the top of the "Compose" text box, get Firefox. It's free and it makes use of all the functions. There's no point in using Blogger without Firefox.

Lesson over! Love you!
