Trying to read History stuff makes me feel like the little engine that could. Except that I can't. Have decided that politicians really ought to be more considerate when they make their messes. It's all Germany's fault! No, it's Britain's fault for being wishy-washy! Wrong again, it's the whole alliance system that was screwed up! I am hopelessly confused by History. See, this is why I like doing Mathematics, that refuge from the tangled web of causation. No, must resist temptation to do a Mathematics paper instead of reading Imanuel Geiss on the origins of the First World War! Studying in school is more productive because there's no television or computer around to act as a distraction. It gets kind of boring after a while though, not to mention cold. Was listening to The Wimhurst's Machine while reading in school, and it's brilliant stuff. I bought Franz Ferdinand's first album yesterday. It was the only thing I could find in That CD Shop that I sort of wanted, as I generally only buy re-released editions of albums these days. Even Libera's third album has been re-released, albeit with the same videos that come packaged with Wild's debut album. Am betting that Duel's debut will be re-released eventually, as will Maksim's third album. Still couldn't find Magna Canta's Sanctuary. Ditto Evermind, which I think is the pinnacle of achievement for Amethystium. Incidentally, does anyone know where I can buy Chris Tomlin's Arrival?
