A Valid Path

Last weekend I completed ripping my Alan Parsons CD collection and started listening to it at work off my portable media player. While listening, I figured I might as well google Alan, maybe there would be some interesting historical stuff on the web. As it turns out, Alan Parsons is still kicking and has a new album out! Even better, he's doing electronica now! I'll be receiving it shortly and will do a review.
This will be the first record without his long-time bandmates Ian Bairnson, and Stuart Elliott. The new album will take Alan in a new direction and into the world of electronica. Artists appearing on this record include: Nortec Collective, The Crystal Method, Shpongle, PJ Olsson, and Pink Floyd's David Gilmour.

Vision Man here. What have you got for a personal media player? ipod man myself. A new Parsons album, whatever his current musical flavor of the moment, is always a plus. Read a cool story the other day that the BBC is in the process of filming new Dr. Who episodes. Any thoughts?

I've got a Dell DJ. It's almost as elegant as an iPod, and equally as functional. I'd give it a 4 out of 5. The software that comes with it is below average, but after buying Dudebox Manager (from Red Chair software) I am much happier. This program syncs with the DJ in the same way that iTunes syncs with the iPod, and has an Xtreamer option that allows you to stream tunes from the DJ to any PC that it's hooked up to via a USB cable.

Parsons is one of those people who just can't stop themselves from making music, I guess - you know the kind of person I'm talking about. (One of them can be found at www.burkum.com/store.)

New Dr. Who episodes - that would be Incredible! Give us the link! Will it be on PBS?

And What Happens When I Don't Wait Well?

I guess you get anxious ... and we all know what that’s like. But I think that “ yakhal ” (Hebrew) or " elpis " (Greek) does not preclude the possibility of action - whether it’s writing about the situation, or something more (and don't underestimate the power of journaling!) Indeed, you don't think of prophets or apostles as the kind of people to sit around just waiting for something to happen. They act, but their action is tempered by the realization that things don’t look too good at the moment (otherwise why would the issue even be coming up?) So they act and wait at the same time, knowing that the fruits of their action are ultimately dependent on the Lord. And of course the Lord is known to have us do things for a while before any kind of clear result is made known. Like planting, and then watering, and then waiting, for a seed to turn into a plant. Farmers probably understand waiting a lot better than we do. They think in seasons and years, not months or we...
