    Herve's Bar & Grill

    Coffee with a nice jolt of Tequila to get you going Admiral. remember, all drinks served by these fair hands will be intoxicating to some degree or another... And I have my eye on you, young alexandert. I'm still clearing up the mess you made last time you came in here...

    Herve's Bar & Grill

    Ah - they were all on previous b-sides, I think. Mr Superlove and the Dark End of the Street were on the flip of the 'Gentleman' single, and My World Is Empty Without You/I Hear A Symphony was a single that got released, but was really hard to find (much like the Uptown Avondale EP, which is all...

    Software Updater... unwanted items

    There's an option in one of the menus to 'deactivate item' or something. Can't remember where it is exactly, but it's mentioned on the Apple OSX troubleshooting page

    Herve's Bar & Grill

    Actually, '1965' has quite a big brass sound to it. Story (probably apocryphal) goes that Greg Dulli (the lead singer) moved to New Orleans to record his last album (The Twilight Singers), and then kill himself. He was in a bar and heard this trumpet player, and decided he had to cut a record...

    I take it that's Monosodium Glutamate, carcinogen and friend of the Chinese Takeaway. My mate used to live with a guy whose parents ran a Chinese restaurant, and he had a big sack of the stuff in his kitchen cupboard - he used to put handfuls of it in everything. you'll be pleased to know that...

    DVD Playback and TV

    is that you can do DVD playback on a telly if you have the machine set to 'Video mirroring'. You don't need to do any restarting etc. Plug in yer telly, click 'Detect Displays' in the Display prefs, and you're away. It only actually plays the film on the bigger screen. Colour saturation stil...

    Herve's Bar & Grill

    Amen to that, Herve. That's a toughie. Essentially they're a soul band, but without any of the saccharine that made Motown soul sellable. Imagine your most extreme emotions - guilt, anger, lust - set to the most appropriate music possible. I know that doesn't help much... If you're...

    Audio recording

    I prefer Amadeus to Soundstudio... it seems to do more for less money, and Sound studio had a bug (apparently fixed now) which scrambled recordings if you edited them. This put me right off using it...

    Herve's Bar & Grill

    My favourite EP of theirs is Uptown Avondale, followed closely by the My World Is Empty Without You EP. I think it's great the way they took these Motown songs, took away the sugar-coating and stripped them right back to the pain in the lyrics. The Greg Dulli solo joint (Under the name the...

    OmniWeb sneaky peeks

    Which sneaky peek are you running? I have nothing that resembles a 1 or a lightning bolt on my sp46 dock icon... However I notice sp47 has been posted at some point today, so if it;s that version then it must be something new. I see they haven't posted any new release notes though...

    Herve's Bar & Grill

    Gentleman, by the Afghan Whigs. A record that's seen me through more breakups than ANY of my best friends. In fact, the last 3 Afghan Whigs albums are catharsis made flesh (or vinyl, or whatever CDs are made out of)

    Herve's Bar & Grill

    Now, there's a question... When I get around to figuring out exactly what the hell I want to put there, I guess. I've got a vague idea of look and feel, but then I have couple of other vague projects demanding my time and energy as well... I also keep deciding that I need to learn more stuff and...

    I lived in Paris for a year, and try to get back there as often as possible. I went to Brazil for Christmas about 7 years ago, and I have briefy visited Germany and Holland with school, but that was SOOO long ago I can't really remember owt about it...

    UNIX basics?

    Be SO SO careful when you start messing around in Terminal and start deleting etc... You can do a lot of damage. I can't remember if it was here or somewhere else, but someone once said to me: "There are only 2 kinds of Unix users - those who have done 'sudo rm -r' on the wrong directory...

    Herve's Bar & Grill

    I drank an awful lot. I craned my neck to get a view of the stage from our shitty seats, and then my colleagues and I snuck past secuity at the end to get down to where the beautiful people sit. I stole some wine off someone semi-famous's table and staggered around drunkenly harrassing...

    Spend the day asleep, and look what happens... 5 pages of religion, overpopulation, music, and chairs. My 2 pennorth... I listen to hip-hop but don't dress as a b-boy, I listen to DC hardcore but I don't have tattoos and a skinhead (I do have quite short hair though), I've never believed...

    Using sound in

    Perhaps I misunderstood what you were asking - I thought you were asking about the lack of a 'Sound Input' Pane in the System preferences. My answer was that there isn't one, but that sound in still works, you just have no control over it... maybe you're talking about Playthru? if so, then...
