I need to be getting FF and FTM working, but I had an idea 2 nights ago about how to move forward on the current issue with vbz, so I really wanted to implement that while it was still clear in my head. I think I've more or less done that, so back to FF...

retroactive update

I did get FF working well enough to use it for the requisite search.

Also -- Subash, my work-friend from Carrier (who now lives in India where he grew up, iirc) expressed an interest in obtaining my vinyl collection, or at least ensuring that I didn't just go casually giving it away. (Apparently vintage vinyl is selling for high prices right now.) I reassured him that I was keeping it, but thought maybe it was time I took some photos of some of the more interesting items (since Mel had also expressed some interest).

Posting them is probably just showing off, but I feel like I don't get much opportunity for that...

• 
  I actually spent $50 on this, sometime in the 1980s.
• 
  This is an original printing, bought by my dad when the album first came out.
• 
  I got this for a dollar. WTF.
• 
• 
  Split Enz: True Colors
• 
  ELO: Three Light Years - it actually had 5 LPs (including 2 by The Move) and 2 7" 45s. I bought it when I was in middle school (must have been 1978 or 1979).
