When you order a CD from the website of a band you like, and you get a letter from the band’s manager, because she knows who you are…
True Story
I ordered a Last Day CD (Happy Medium) and included was a letter from their manager Kathy because she knew who I was from the posts on the forums on CatholicJukebox.com. Yeah ok, it’s not like it’s a big deal, but it’s one of those small things that makes ones day.
I use DBPowerAmp Music Converter to rip as it is quite fast. I have PowerMenu installed which makes it easy to click on the taskbar and change the priority. I use MusicBrainz Picard Tagger and The GodFather for tagging renaming and moving.
I go to Monday night prayer meeting with the father of a friend of my brother’s. My brother’s friend is dating the daughter of the guy that took over the company where my mom’s business partner used to work, he was originally hired by said company to take my dad’s job. My mom is also friends with her mom. She and her mom also have the same personal trainer that my mom and I do. He’s coming in the morning. The real funny part is, she was over here tonight with my brother’s friend, as was my mom’s partner and his wife, like I said, full circle.
This is confusing me…I’ve edited it like 4 times, Happy day after Thanksgiving!
I just installed a new blog theme and also the latest WordPress Widgets plugin. The archives are now displayed so you can go back to my first post in September. Of course really, before that it went a few years back, but I lost my database. I just hope the widgets plugin doesn’t screw me up again. Last time it did and that’s actually what caused my database problem.You see the changes to the widgets weren’t saving, so I exported the database and deleted it, problem is when I wanted to import it again it would not import, so I had contacted support at my old host for help, problem was as I found out later they were in the midst of an acquisition, but I didn’t know that, after two help ticket posts and a month and no response, I switched to WebbleYou for hosting and started over that’s why it’s called Giant’s Randomness 2.0 because I wanted to differentiate it from the old blog.
I’m having some issues with how the sidebar displays links, if I had linked to your blog or site before, don’t worry I intend on adding it back again. I am going to be making some more changes soon, and I’ll be posting an explanation as to why I really started the blog over from scratch, a full explanation.
Hi, my name is Matt, I attend a Roman Catholic church, I’m involved in a Catholic young adults group, I volunteer as a young adult leader and for a local youth group, and I am part of a charismatic prayer group. I just recently started listening to Catholic music, I’ve been a fan of Christian music for a long time, and that won’t change. If you have a problem with any of these things, sorry, I will still pray for you anyway. I have no problem with people who don’t believe the same as me. What I have a problem with is people that assume, and think they understand, but they don’t, and they don’t try to. I have good Catholic friends, that won’t attend the prayer group because they think it’s voodoo, or that a healing service is someone pushing someone else to the floor, some of them don’t like it when people make assumptions about Catholics when they don’t know or understand, but then they dis Charasmatics for the same reason.
Speaking of Catholic music, if you’re curious, check out some of the links I just added on my blog sidebar.

The first one is a simple 25 foot cable I bought at Target essentially called like an MP3 audio cable, it is a 1/8″ headphone jack with a pass through on one end, and red and white RCA plugs on the other end. That’s now run behind my couch from my onboard soundcard to my Sharper Image stereo…
Sure that’s all well and good, yeah, ok, but to top that off I have two years VIP subscription to Live365, the VIP subscription comes with their Radio365 software and no lame advertising. With the software I can load it up and tune in anything or search their directory without a visit to the website. I got the idea because a few of my favorite websites have streams on Live365, Catholic Jukebox, which hosts the Catholic Rockers podcast I listen to, and also Sacred Heart Radio. I’ve found a lot more fun 24/7 stations to listen to, besides those.
Last but not least, is a little $19.99 thing from a company called SRS Labs, called SRS Audio Sandbox, it processes the Audio before it goes to the soundcard, and gives it more life. I can tell a difference easily.
