Important musical things
Amazon is giving away three free mp3s (thanks to ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) slipjig): Here. This led me to the fact that there's cover of Randy Scouse Git that I wouldn't have known about if not for slipjig!
Another Carl Sagan song (thanks to ariannawyn):
Muppets doing Queen (thanks to amcnh and yendi). See it before it goes viral:

Synergy
Listening to Pink Floyd's Time while viewing this photo is... I'm not sure how to describe it.

It is really better to hear the song, not just think about the song, so:

Request: Market research
For one of my classes, I need to suggest an improvement to a web site that sells expensive outdoor equipment. I could say things that I notice about the web site, but I'm not the typical type to buy things like this. So, if you know anyone who would buy expensive hiking, skiing, or climbing equipment online or if you are that kind of person; What kind of shopper are you/the person? A browser, a dart-in and grab your item kind of person? What do you find the most annoying about shopping online?
As a thanks, I'll show you my latest online simple game. All the fun of making celtic knotwork without the work: Here.
Edit: The site that I need to critic is here: http://www.rei.com/.

Hey, did you know that Amazon has some free downloadable mp3s? For example, this early medieval music album: Here.
If you're in Manchester, NH this Saturday, you may want to check out Pagan Pride Day at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Manchester: http://snhpaganpride.org/nh-pagan-pride-day/. My first bellydance teacher will be conducting a free North African dance workshop there.
From cvirtue, a defense of marriage act that I find very interesting: http://www.cockeyed.com/citizen/divorce/divorce.php.
EDIT: There's some Great Big Sea songs for free also.

recipes to try & one tried
http://www.cakebaker.co.uk/crumpets-pikelets-english-muffins.html
Also, this was good this week:
Easy Curried cauliflower
Cut up and steam one head of cauliflower.
In a pot, combine 2 cans of cream of mushroom soup, 1 teaspoon of curry powder, and one container of tofu, cubed. Heat on low heat until warm throughout. Add the cauliflower. For extra yumminess, serve on zucchini pancakes & top with sliced avacado.
