New song added: "Loralee." Jeez -- it's been a long time! I've been programming a lot. I also procured a bunch of new recording equipment, and then found myself thoroughly overwhelmed by the prospect of learning how to use it. Alas, I still am. Now that I'm seriously itching to record more songs, I've switched back to my old relatively simple system. But I'll master "Pro Tools" yet!More tunes and another installment of the House of Strange Thoughts are on the way.

New installment of Strange Thoughts added: "The Numinous Shore of Partial Understanding" (with an interactive odds calculator thrown in).Music added: I re-recorded "I Wonder Where Samsara Goes," and tweaked the lyrics.
New "Ditties and Oddities" added: Three techno concoctions I whipped up in 2002 with "Acid" software. I don't think I'll be in demand as a Rave Party DJ based on these, but they were fun to do -- and fun to name! Also, I put the firt full version of "I Wonder Where Samsara Goes" in "Ditties and Oddities," above the original sketch of the song.

New Music added: "Alaina's Fabric," and also the original kernel for the song in "Ditties and Oddities."Well, once a month is an improvement, but I'm still aiming for more frequent updates. I do have more songs and Strange Thoughts percolating, all bits and pieces and gleams in my eye at the moment.
