As announced on the Ben Folds mailing list, the Attacked by Plastic website now has samples of all eleven tracks from Ben’s upcoming album, Songs for Silverman. There is also a spiffy custom media player, but that only lets you hear four of the samples. The new disc comes out on April 26th.

Future of Mac
The mainstream media rarely dives this far into speculation about our favorite computer manufacturer, so this is something of a treat. Business 2.0 has a long feature story on the past, present and mostly the future of Apple. The story includes a great gallery of conceptual product images produced by design firm Pentagram and a breakdown of how likely they are to exist. This is a must read for all you Mac lovers (and haters).

So, we have TWO days left until the due date. But, we have a feeling that ‘b-day’ may come and go. Gotta get used to the idea of an April baby, I guess! Amy’s visit to her doctor today went smoothly. Baby is fine, but very little to report otherwise. We’ll see our main doctor next Wednesday, which will be six days after the due date. We’ll probably have a better idea of what’s up at that point. But then again, we might have the baby this weekend (which would be great, ’cause Amy’s doctor is on-call)!

It’s raining cats and dogs in Atlanta this weekend, so Amy and I spent our time mostly indoors making sure everything is just so in the Baby’s room. As I mentioned earlier, we had a set of nine photographs of mine taken at the Atlanta Zoo framed in groups of three for the room, and we spent Saturday afternoon hanging them. It looks great, IIMSSM (if I may say so myself!). Amy has managed to get in a few long walks between storms, and we hope this helps the baby decide ‘now is the time!’
