So I'm digging around in the basement, looking for a lost CD to rip for my new Virtual Mixtape blog, when I open a box and find ...

... approximately 200 forgotten burned CD-Rs!

And while most of them are discs I've ripped and stored on a hard drive, a lot of them are completely forgotten. We're talking mix CDs other people have made me, random mp3s taken from p2p networks back before we all knew for certain it was illegal, or taken legally from mp3.com when it existed in its pure form. I'm in bliss.

Also, I found the photograph above, taken I believe by Lundgren in July of '04. That's the root system of a huge fallen tree I'm peering through.

Yeehaw!
