You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach  

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

As it turns out, it's dead easy. Just look in your browser's cache directory. You're looking for a file that is exactly 11,060,795 bytes, or 10,802 kilobytes, in size. If your browser retains the file extension (such as Opera does) then it is a .flv file, which MediaPlayerClassic can play on Windows.

Oh, and thanks for the tip Jimi. I found the flv file and converted it to mp3 via a free tool I found on the web.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Jon, could I ask you pretty-please to share? I looked for the .flv, but couldn't find it. In fact, I couldn't even find my Firefox cache at all. (Maybe I didn't look hard enough, but I did look in what I thought were likely places....)

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I use the Download Helper [link] extension to Firefox to copy and save flash video, but I don't have an app. to convert to .mp3

What did you use for that?

eta: On second glance, looks like there may be a utility on that same site to do the conversion to .mp3. I'll have to try it out....

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

My first review from the Tom Waits Forums:

*******************

"Anyway, back to the book. It was for me like a giant platter of chocolate truffles with different fillings. The detailed dissection, savoury morsels and nougats of truth and lies, myths and facts, clarifications and obfuscations at the same page, in the same sentence created [a] delicious melange, at least for this Tom Waits fan.
And the fadeout of the last chapter was spectacular.
I'm not going to say more, now it's your turn to read it, fans."

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

That's fantastic!
