So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

I'm proud of myself right now because I had a terrible, crippling virus on my computer last night at this time, and now it seems gone. It probably isn't gone, but at least I got the computer back working again. I deleted EVERYTHING. Even DivX and AIM and RealPlayer and Quicktime and itunes... everything. I'll have to reintroduce them one by one. I also threw away the music that I had downloaded which probably gave me the viruses. I love those songs, that's why I waded back into this piracy, virus-filled-territory to get them. I missed them that much. I was going to stop after getting them back and get back out of Limewire as soon as possible. But it wasn't soon enough, because the viruses got me. I am particularly going to miss "Les Feuilles Mortes" by Edith Piaf and "Songs about Rain" by some country artist. I'd been hankering for those two forever. These songs and all of the songs and audio files helpful for movie-making are really hard to come by except illegally, because they aren't recent and they aren't marketed by a record company. The new Napster and itunes is really only good for mainstream new stuff. Sigh. The songs are sitting there in my recycle bin. I could just pull them out, right now. It's possible that they're clean and the virus-covered files were the ones that I played yesterday before I realized they were empty or faulty. Maybe I'll just back up my entire system and then try it. But somehow, superstitiously, I attribute my ability to beat the virus in part to righting the wrongs I had committed by pirating the songs in the first place- and secondly from the fact that I went out and bought a CD. Death Cab For Cutie gets the money that I had been denying Edith Piaf.

I made my first writing. If you read it you'll likely surmise that I'm slightly off my rocker, no doubt. I tried to write it a little bit in the format of the Greek philosophers so it would seem more like an essay on metaphysics, which is kind of exactly what it is. Yeah, that's what I waste my time doing when I should be studying the formation of wrinkle ridges on the moon inside a 13-floor library on your average gorgeous Saturday.

A Music Link
In our NuTang Forum, dave has some links you might be able to find your favorites at:
http://www.nutang.com/forums.php?thread=5&p=1

You still think you got this virus from music? dadumbo got it from a url link. That's what I meant to say when I commented where you got your virus, maybe a url link instead?

Well try dave's link or ask him if he knows where you can get those songs or le_batt

I'll keep an eye out for those songs for you. I'm sure other NuTang Members will 2!

Please empty your recycle bin! Temptation is just not a musical band :)

Gary Allen does the Songs about rain song. I wish you went to my university 'cause this geology class is killing me.
