Dec. 7th, 2006 12:56 amNot last Sunday, but maybe the Sunday before, I was waiting at a bus stop and an old childhood friend came by. We exchanged screen names and this happened tonight. . .(note: screen names have been changed and I'm Bill.)
(00:07:35) Bill: I also have a bit over 11,000 tracks in amaroK to make sure I've listened to all of at least once
(00:10:23) Bill: I'm going to be here awhile

(00:21:41) Griffith: um not yet. lol
