I’ve got a 3-CD collection of Beat Generation material in iTunes. When you add a CD to iTunes, it goes to CDDB and tries to figure out what ID3 tags to put on the song.
Whoever submitted their data to CDDB said that the Jack Kerouac interview on this CD is “unclassifiable.” Yet, they themselves classified it.
This is what happens when I lose the Internet connection.
While in the midst of talking with our landlord, the phone cut off. I thought it was just a weak connection–but called from my cell phone and the line just kept ringing. Then I went to check my email–and something was wrong with the internet connection. I went downstairs, and found we have no cable.
Either the utilities were scheduled to be cut off today (we’re moving out on July 31) or maybe someone accidentally cut the cables while doing construction work or something.
Nevertheless, a large part of my life for the last year–the Internet, cable television, and the land line–are gone.
