Weird Power Outage

The power went out for about 15 minutes today around 11am… It’s a beautiful day out, so I wonder what caused the outage… I don’t even know if it was just our building or if it was more widespread… Not a big deal, although I noticed that my toilet doesn’t refill the tank without power, which seems kind of strange to me.

I went out to pick up a copy of Risk and get some Jamba Juice down at Alewife… Adam is hosting a “dork game” night here on Tuesday and we needed a copy of Risk, so I went out to Toys R’ Us to grab one, and noticed they were having a Buy 1 Get 1 Free sale, so I picked up the 20th Anniversary Edition of Trivial Pursuit, which I had wanted anyway. I grabbed some lunch, then walked across the street to Newbury Comics to score the new Autechre LP “Draft 7.30”, which I am listening to now. I then walked back across the street to the Hippie Mart to visit the Jamba Juice within.

I walk over to the sacred area to discover that THE JAMBA JUICE IS GONE!!!! No explanation, no justification, just gone. I guess it is time to find the alternate Jamba over at BU..

Anyone know of any good headless automated CD ripping/encoding software for Unix/Linux? I want to be able to stick a CD in my fileserver and have it automatically encoded for me without any interaction..
