As was first announced last September, Paul McCartney is partnering with Hewlett-Packard to put his solo catalog online. What I want to know is, what storage platform is HP using for Paul — 3Par, XP (has nothing to do with Windows XP), or EVA?
Here’s another one for you, Samjay! 😉
I’m not a hockey fan, but the Boston Bruins are playing a wicked good game in Vancouver. They’re in the lead, 3-0, and I’m switching between watching that and Turner Classic Movies, where Chris Isaak is tonight’s guest programmer.
I haven’t seen Isaak live in a few years, but I’m a fan of his and these are exactly the movies I would have expected him to pick. They’re in keeping with the tone of his best known song, Wicked Game.
I’m working on some too-ambitious posts that are getting away from me, so I’m letting them sit in the drafts bin for a while. In the meantime I’m just going to enjoy some books, music, and movies.
I’m listening to Neil Innes’ Rutles follow-up, called Archaeology, and it’s really good. Innes displays an uncanny ability to be insightful and funny at the same time, while turning a catchy tune that turns Rock and Roll musical conventions on their side. He could be called a completely unique talent if not for Ray Davies. Give a listen to Hey Mister!
Innes does an inspired twist on McCartney’s When I’m Sixty Four, called Back in ’64. This is the closing of the second Rutles mockumentary, Can’t Buy Me Lunch.

Lonely Boy by Andrew Gold brings back memories of my time in the radio biz. Gold died a couple of days ago.
Before the Velvet Underground there was the Velvet Fog.
