Some Music
Pink Floyd
Stumbled across Pink Floyd's website while searching for something else. Rather neat, listened to Echoes for the first time in years. Not quite CD quality but they have streams set up for modem, dual ISDN and broadband so it works quite well. A few clicks and pops but no drop outs.
Olve
Met a musician called Olve (Ol=ale, ve=guard or warrior) at Drammen railway station this morning (2003-11-21 06:10 CET). He was translating a Beatles song into Norwegian and having trouble with the last few words: It's just a state of mind. State of mind can be translated as sinnsstemning but that doesn't carry the slightly negative connotation that state of mind has in English in this song. We had a chat about it and concluded that it meant that the person or persons being described were narrow minded, smalsynt. It'll be interesting to see and hear how it turns out; the rest of it seemed pretty well done, neat use of dialect and the weather in Bergen. Stop press: just received an SMS (06:52) from Olve saying he'll let me know when the sun shines. He sent it to me so now I'll ask him if it is alright to put it on my web page.
