Watched Chunking Express by Wong Kar Wai on DVD. Awesome! (IMDB:0109424)
I started watching *Kagemusha* by Kurosawa on DVD. (IMDB:0080979) Like *Ran*, the movie very much like a theatre performance with traditional scenes and dialogues. I’m not sure I like this transportation of theatre into movies.
Listening to *Protection* by Massive Attack.
I’ll try and jot down the music I am listening to. Now I just need a way to quickly link to a shop or review site. Stupid CDs still don’t have good identifiers that can be used in a link.
Edit frenzy on CommunityWiki! 😄 Amazing!
I also found two interesting articles on AndStuff – a wiki I don’t usually read, but whenever I have contact with ScottMoonen, I go over to AndStuff and browse through the list of recent changes, and do some HubAndSpole navigating. The following two pages are of interest to me because when it comes to religion, I am mostly interested in *comparative theology*. A purely intellectual intereste in religious matters, dampened by my disinterest in discussions of minor details and my aversion to the strained use of language so common amongst philosophers and theologicians. These two articles I liked very much:

http://andstuff.org/CharismaticVsPentecostal

Regarding linking CDs, can you not link via catalog number, which *should* be unique. Unfortunately, amazon URLs are unique according to their ASIN, which is pretty useless.

Well, should you have the CD in question, you can get the catalog number from it.
It’s the 7-digit number on the CD, which is usually formatted as “xxx xxx-x”, e.g. Whisper Not, by The Standard Trio is “543 816-2” Amazon allows you to search their catalog by number, but as I mentioned before, you’ll have to do some screen-scraping to get the correct link out.
Lars’ project was, IIRC, The Idiot Jukebox, which classified discs by CDDB id.
