Weekly MP3 shareAnother share of one of my MP3s. I set up a new one once a week and give you seven days to check it out. After that it will be gone and replaced by a new selection. Please don't link to this. Just click on the link and save it. Until I can make some money and buy some, if you get the message BANDWIDTH exceeded, just try again tomorrow. For this week:

Mp3 Share Lenny Kravitz
"Love Revolution"

or you can try here too!

Lenny Kravitz was at the Air Canada Centre, in Toronto, last week on the 22nd. He is doing a cross Canada tour at the moment and can be found in many Canadian cities in the near future, To celebrate I'm sharing one of the tracks from his newest album called "It's Time For A Love Revolution". Here is the song from that album called "Love Revolution". I hope you enjoy it.
Check out Wikipedia for more info.

Here's a cute cartoon from last Monday's Rhymes With Orange. For anyone who is under the control of your Dogs and Cats it is just too true. I have personal experience with this and got a little chuckle when I saw it. How about you?

For those of you still using Windows Xp ENVy allows the environment variables of two machines to be visually compared and highlighted for differences. ENVy was written for the times when you've asked "Why does it work on your computer? What's different about your environment?" Those who've experienced this also know what a pain in the butt it is to sort through environment variables using the lovely environment variable editor that comes with Windows. In addition to comparison, ENVy allows the differences in variables and values to be easily merged into your local environment by using a single right-click action. So at the same time you find the differences, you can choose to insert them into your environment with no hassle or painful cutting and pasting. ENVy also provides full capability for the creation, editing, and deletion of environment variables and values using a user-friendly, vertical display of values. Multiple values can be added, removed, and modified all at the same time while editing a single variable. Environment variables can even be renamed with one simple operation. There is an installable or standalone version and it's free!. Check ENVy out.

Mp3 Share Jason Mraz "Make It Mine"
or you can try here too!
I like to watch Austin City Limits on PBS and a couple of years ago, I tuned in to a show with Jason Mraz. I was totally engaged by his music and quite taken with the strange last name. He was here in Toronto just last week at Massey Hall with Lisa Hannigan. I thought it a good time to share another tune from him. Here is a cut from his newest album "We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things" called "Make It Mine". Check out his official site and his myspace site.

Well it is true. I'm back and trying my best to catch up. I hope you missed me! If I succeed with my palns then there will be a new MP3 share this coming Monday. I'll try my best and hope that the backlog from such a long absence is not too daunting. Hope you have a great weekend.
