I've been uptight and made a mess, but I'll clean it up myself, I guess

Maybe somewhere down the road a way

You'll think of me and wonder where I am these days

Maybe somewhere down the road when somebody plays

Purple haze

Here's a Saturday special! Tell me you didn't see this coming...

One of the Greates Voices Ever!

There's no tears to be shed

I'm gonna love you instead

I want you around, cheer down.

Accroches-toi à ton rêve

Accroches-toi à ton rêve

Quand tu vois ton bateau partir

Quand tu sens ton coeur se briser

Accroches-toi à ton rêve.

I've given up, stop. You tangle my emotions

I've given up, honey please admit it's over

HAIL PSYCHO BITCH

YOU'RE MY FUCKIN' VALENTINE

(BUCK-TICK. "My Fuckin’ Valetine." Sexy Stream Liner. Mercury, 1997)

Well, so far, so good.  I have my Shouctast daemon running on my server and the firewall configured.  As I type this,I have my source running on one system and streaming from another.  Seems to be working fine.  Now I just need to set it up so the daemon launches at system start.

Another update.

When you did a bit of splitting-em-ness
Frighten everybody shitless

Since they've killed Twitter at work, I'm going to put this here.  Of course, since it's on here, I'll actually post more than just the quip...
