Grooving to the Cars Soundtrack
After watching Cars only recently (then over and over and over), I’ve started digging the soundtrack. Sheryl Crow, Rascal Flatts, John Mayer, and all the instrumental tracks are pretty good!

What’s Your Backup Plan asks Big Boi
This morning my Awaken-powered alarm clock started blaring Back Up Plan from Big Boi’s Sir Lucious Left Foot… The Son of Chico Dusty. This timely start of the day had me wondering about my backup plan for my data.
Here’s what my backup plan currently includes (of course, things change).
Mac OS X Time Machine. This built-in Mac OS feature has saved my bacon on occasion and even though my current Time Machine drive lost its mind temporarily, it’s rebuilding and backing up gigs of stuff.
Backblaze. Speaking of gigs of stuff, how long does it take to back up gigs of stuff online? I’m not sure, but I still got Backblaze blazing away. There’s about 200 gigs to go…Â Have you signed up?
VaultPress. This is my most recent addition to my backup plan. How do you keep your words (and everything else) on WordPress safe and protected? You store them in a vault, a VaultPress. Since I got a Golden Ticket, I figured I’d try this service in its startup stages.
So if Big Boi asks, my backup plan is Time Machine, Backblaze, and VaultPress!

Songs from the Search for Epic
While on the Search for Epic, here are some of the tunes that fueled the journey.
Unofficial World Cup Music
While U2 is the official rockers of the FIFA World Cup, that doesn’t stop soccer fan and music band,Weezer, from releasing an “unofficial” theme song for the 2010 tournament.
“Represent” is for the U.S. team and is available for free for one week on iTunes starting on June 11, 2010.
Thanks to the Weezer-loving Jessica for the tip.
Burned by Amazon Monthly Music Sales
Each month Amazon’s MP3 Music Store features 100 albums for $5 each. You just don’t know what albums will be on the list. The June list includes some definite winners and if you paid full price for some of these (like me), you just got burned. 😉
