At the end of this past week I did some more rearranging in my apartment, although the placement of the air-conditioner prevents any crazy changes. I sacrificed the faux surround sound setup I had in the bedroom and put the two rear speakers on the endtables in the living room. Now I can listen to music from the computer, CD player, or record player in the living room without blaring.

Virginia Tech lost to Miami 56-45 in a crazy game that played like a textbook of examples of fumbles, interceptions, and key plays. It would have been interesting to have a #14 team beat a #1 team, just to see the resultant effect on the BCS rankings, which have never had to deal with a slew of defeated top teams.
