13 Any of you guys fans of animated flicks? Remember in the first Aladdin
14 movie when Aladdin dupes the genie into an extra wish and the genie
15 says, "Boy do I feel stupid"? Well that's me.

17 What can I say, I'm a creature of habit. I have always used kscd to
18 play audio CD's, but I'm a big fan of amaroK for playing my music
19 collection. However, amaroK worked fine to play an audio CD. I really
20 don't understand what the me, but it doesn't really matter. In the
21 end, I can do what I wanted to do!

23 Thanks everyone for their patience. Gentoo is not only the *best*
24 distribution IMHO, but the participants on the gentoo-user mailing list
25 are the *absolute best* - much better than some of the distro-specific
26 mailing lists that I participated in before I "saw the light" and
27 switched to Gentoo!

29 Thanks again!
