Covertown. You can hear it on my blog along with my favorite songs and movies and things that other people created but I use to express my individualism. This blog is ironic, of course. The musical equivalent of “Quotation is a serviceable substitute for wit.” Not only do I get to express my own personal dismay at mortality using other people’s words but I also get to mock myself in the process.

Well, there you have it. We have just enough time for me to squeeze in a small powerful speech. Thus conscience does make cowards of us all, And thus the native hue of resolution Is sicklied o’er with the pale cast of thought, And enterprises of great pitch and moment…

Did I ever tell you about my dream to move into El Cibao and go under the tutelage of some bachata master until I myself could play it with the likes of Juan Luis Guerra, Luis Vargas, Zacarías Ferreira and of course Aventura? Hmm…I think I did here, but if you don’t speak Spanish, you may have missed it. hehe. Well, anyway…I’ve been in a very bachata crazy mood lately. Here’s is my humble little aventura into VillaVersionar. :)

E asked if there were any other neighborhoods in Covertown; I told her that we’d just have to go exploring. We’ll here’s one from BuckleyBarrio, an incredibly difficult neighborhood to get into. Hopefully I’ve made it there (you’ll have to let me know through comments). Many try, but few succeed. In fact, most get completely lost on their way there and end up far from BuckleyBarrio in Jamesbluntown.

Updated database

Friday, April 25th, 2008

I just updated this blog’s database, which is always extremely nerve wracking because something little always goes wrong.  Sometimes the accents get screwed all up (because I type in Spanish sometimes, etc, including the title of the blog).  Sometimes the plugins that I use are not compatible with the updated database.  There are all these little things to make sure of.  Anyway, it’s stressful.  If you notice any little things messed up here and there, please point them out and I’ll fix them.
