Back In Business
By Eric | May 30, 2008 4:13 pm
After about a month of power problems, I finally got around to ordering and installing a new DC jack on my jukebox, as the old one decided to give up the ghost. It’s not like I can’t recharge batteries, but when I use it in the car, it’s really nice to have it turn on and turn off along with the car (read: I’m lazy). I also picked up a nifty little device that converts the 5v USB out of the computer into a 9V line suitable for powering the archos. No more wall wart necessary! It’s a nice workaround for the fact that the Archos was manufactured before the time of powering/charging stuff via USB.

Jamey Gets It, Why Can’t Everyone Else?
By Eric | May 28, 2008 10:48 am
From an interview in Miami, Hatebreed’s Jamey Jasta hits the nail on the head, in reference to heavy music:
It’s all aggressive music, you know? It’s people that overthink it on the Internet and stuff who make that there’s all this separation. But there really isn’t. But once you get out to the show and see kids in a shirt and talk to the kids, you realize that just because there’s four guys posting ten times each, it’s not reality, you know? There’s not as much separation as everyone thinks.
Jamey, you are soooooooooo not metal/hardcore/extreme. Way to sell out. Or something. 🙂

Zach, I’m really sorry that normal typing and grammar skills escape you. Due to your unintelligible prose, I’m going to have to deny your request, and stamp it with the Carlo “English Fail” seal-of-approval.
