This is a temporary posting until I can think of something better to write. I lost a dear friend recently, though we had been out of touch.

If you knew him, and see this - please contact me at steve@interactivenyc.com. I have some old cassettes of radio programs I used to listen to religiously with Carissa. Here's a snapshot of the tapes:

And the track listing for the first tape:

UPDATE 04/11/2007:
Here's a link to a folder on my server that has all my collected photos and recordings. Keep checking back at this link for more good stuff. Send me some email if you have anything to contribute to this repository of Michael's soul.

For the non-computer-savvy, right click on anything in that folder and select "Save Link As" or "Save Target To Disk" to save this material to your computer. I will make this easier in the future.

And finally - a link to my Last.FM station:

Add me as a friend.

If you hear what I'm saying, do me the favor of listening to Mike Bennet's "One Among The Sleepless."

I hope Mike doesn't mind when I rip his synopsis off his website:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ONE AMONG THE SLEEPLESS - The Story
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Who is The One?

Is it Peter Reynolds, mild-mannered office clerk pouring petrol through his neighbour's letterbox in the middle of the night?

Is it Wayne Dolan, a man who discovers strange, unsociable uses for his own urine - and an even stranger desire for the lady upstairs with the whip?

Or is it Dusty, a mysterious vagrant who views the world through a pair of 1966 Balorama wrap sunglasses?

Mick Nixon wants to find out, because people are disappearing. And if he and Sally are ever going to share more than just sandwiches, he'd better hurry up, or they could be next.

One Among the Sleepless is a novel set in a neighbourhood just like yours: noisy, angry, demented. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll throw it through your neighbour's window tied to a house brick!

My buddy Kevin was in Cancun during the latest eclipse and took a photo. Guess how far the closest geotagged image of the eclipse is?
