Carpenters: Horizon (1974)

What struck me most about this album back in the day was the audio quality. I don’t know what magic the recording engineers used, but Karen’s voice was crystal clear and it seemed you could hear every instrument used in the arrangements.

Their take on “Please Mr. Postman” remains one of my favorites.

I Am Convinced…

I am convinced that the majority of the people I support, the “end users” were never told “No!” as children.

I am sick of the attitude that every piece of software, every application, must bend to their will, to conform to how they think it should work. Never mind that many things are hard-wired in and cannot be changed. And when confronted with that explanation, the whining starts. “What do you mean you can’t fix it?”

Fuck them. Fuck them all.
