I’ve been a musician for most of my life. Between church choirs, garage bands, and a cappella groups, I’ve been involved in organized (but never professional) music-making for the better part of several decades. But, after so long uninspired, I thought that maybe the musical part of my life was mostly behind me. Until the Tascam Portastudio 414 MKII brought it all flooding back. -* [The internet is already over][23] +* [The internet is already over][24] > Where you go, what you buy; a perfect snapshot of millions of ordinary lives.

The album dates to October 2006 — seven months after Twitter was founded, three months before the iPhone debuted — and it seems, listening again now, to be closing the door on the cultural system that Manet and Baudelaire established a century and a half previously. -* [The Real Reason You Should Get an E-bike][24] +* [The Real Reason You Should Get an E-bike][26] > Today’s happiness and personal-finance gurus have no shortage of advice for living a good life.
