I fucken love Kate Bush!
Wuthering Heights
And her and (Peter) Gabriel (
Shock the Monkey), who I also love, make an excellent duo:
Don't Give Up
And then there's Aussie (Nooooosha) Fox:
Only You Can and
Single Bed
(Well, you might have to search for them on YouTube since I've messed up most of the links.)

What do you guys pay for broadband. I'm still on dial up.
I did sign up for broadband with Optus, but cancelled because I didn't like the manner in which i was treated by the company.

Jamesh,
I will be switching back to SBC Yahoo (now ATT) at the end of the year. I only left originally because the plan I had with them ended and the price doubled. I had no complaints with line speed, reliability or customer service. I live in the U.S. however, (I'm uncertain of your local). $14.99/month. No contract.

Addendum: The $14.99/mo is for 768/384Kbps and $19.99/mo for 1500/384Kbps speeds. Not a bad price.

I'm with iprimus. Costs me around $49 per mth, unlimited d/l but the connection speed drops to 256k after 500mb in any given month for the remainder of that month, which isn't so bad if you're an medium-level user. Got the modem free, also (I think it was worth a $250 back then). Not sure if that's because I have my phone with them as well.
I reckon Optus is shite customer service-wise, too. (Had my mobile phone with them at one stage.)
I am told TPG is worth looking at but I'm in no real hurry since I'm pretty happy with iprimus.
I sent myself an email from work with a few other providers and prices/packages a few months ago. PM your email address to me if you'd like me to forward it on.

One of my favs from the old days was Loudon Wainwright. I find his music to be of the timeles variety, but that is because I've always been a fan of unrequitted love songs . The type of songs that an enlightened person would find sickening, but I still like them :).
This song is great, though probably not the one I would have picked myself give a wider range, It's about what a male will do for a root. Somewhat embarrassing really.
