So, for the first time in recent memory, there are not only zero unread items in my RSS reader, but also no unread emails (and more importantly, no un-responded to emails) in my inbox.
This is, of course, a state of affairs that is unlikely to persist.
As a side note, I’ve recently been twice contacted about the first song featured in this post (once in the comments and once by email); apparently the title of the song, “Ik wil alleen maar zwemmen” means “I just want to go swimming”. Also a couple of minor corrections: the song is in Dutch, not Flemish, since, for one thing, the band is from the Netherlands, not Belgium (that doesn’t explain the existence of both http://spinvis.be and http://spinvis.nl); for another, there is no such language as Flemish. Who knew?
