So I went record shopping today, and despite spending more money than I meant to and dealing with Wax 'n Fax's employee's usual snobbishness, I think I came out victorious.I got James Brow's Revolution of the Mind, the third volume from the Live At The Appollo albums and I absolutely love it. I also got LCD Soundsystem's self titled album and Theilonious Monk plays Duke Ellington, which was his first release on Riverside Records but I think the album might be a weird way to get introduced to him.
At any rate, the new records have spurred into starting a new project. I've decided that I want to keep an inventory of the vinyl I have because my collection is still to a size where it will be easy to start the project. Since I've been wanting to learn PHP and AJAX for a while, I'm going to make a little web app to keep track of my library for me. I think I'm probably going to use the Yahoo! User Interface Library to make it a little more interactive than what I could get in any reasonable amount of time. The library has got some pretty cool stuff like a nice DataTable control and a new Chart control and it makes JavaScript development a little cleaner. Plus, I think I'm going to try to use it on some other projects.
If you have any cool ideas for things the record library application could do, drop me a line.

y'know... you really should go to full moon. they don't treat you like crap.
I know, I was already in little 5 though.
I just got my PHP service up and running, so if you need fast, friendly, local hosting with hadny FTP access, you know who to talk to.
Also, Charlie probably knows more PHP than I do at this point. I've been off the scene for a while, but I still have a little bit of pseudo-coding left in me.
