One day left
My trial version of Radio expires in one day, possibly tomorrow. Since the only platforms Radio supports are Windows and MacOS, it is doubtful that I will buy a copy as I use Linux at home. I have been using Radio from work and, while I have been impressed, I don’t think it is worth the investment, especially considering I would only be able to use it at work. Radio eats a lot of time out of my work day.
However, I have been thinking about implementing a Radio-like application in Python. I like Radio’s idea of off-loading the rendering to the client and only displaying static webpages on the server. After a couple of weekends I might have something which will enable some basic weblog updates. We shall see.

My own personal hell
Many who know me are aware of how I loathe the popular music of the day. Much of it causes me actual physical pain. It is because of this that my gym has become my own personal hell. Three days a week since February, they have been piping in the same tunes over and over and over again. Today was crappy dance music day. I can almost tell which track will play next as I don’t think they bother to shuffle their playlist. Once or twice they have been known to break out and play something different, like classic rock or retro eighties. One day a month ago they even played reggae & dub tunes all morning! That was the best hour I’ve ever had at that gym and I will cherish it always. In the meantime, so long as I want to become physically fit, I will have to endure the personal hell that is my gym.
