Free compilation album from legendary songsmith Billy Franks - With an introduction by best selling author, Christopher Brookmyre

2010-08-24 Thread Billy Franks
Hi,

Penning Classics and garnering praise from Bono, Peter Gabriel  Oasis THE 
GUARDIAN

Songwriting from the top drawer TIME OUT.

Imagine McCartney's craftsmanship and Springsteen's power and you'll get the 
gist Q MAGAZINE



As it seems I am only really know by famous novelists and rock stars, I thought 
I might introduce myself by giving awayt a free compilation of 12 of my best 
songs from 6 albums spanning 2 decades.

To grab your's just email  eupho...@billyfranks.com  and you will get the 
download link.

If ya want to read Christopher Brookmyres introduction, here it is:

Euphoria

It?s the first word that always comes to mind whenever I attempt to describe 
Billy Franks? music. It refers primarily to an almost excessive feeling of joy, 
but for me the more important aspect that connects it to these songs is that 
sense of being consumed by an emotion; that sense of an unstoppable, volcanic, 
up-rushing of passion, that exhilarating but tantalising feeling you get when 
you are experiencing something that cannot be expressed in mere language, nor 
even mere music. 

Anybody can write a song about love. Not anybody can make you feel love, feel 
loss, feel pain, feel desire, feel ecstasy. Not anybody can make you feel 
euphoria. Billy Franks can.

Christopher Brookmyre

Introduction

2010-03-07 Thread Niki Kovacs

Hi,

I'm an Austrian sysadmin living in Montpezat (South France). I'm 100% 
GNU/Linux since 2001, I started out with Slackware 7.1, then after a few 
years of using Slackware and Debian, I moved to CentOS in 2006, a clone 
of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. I'm running a one-man computer company 
(Microlinux: http://www.microlinux.fr) spezialized in computer solutions 
based on GNU/Linux and FOSS.


Up until now, I never gave FreeBSD a try, but sometimes I used to 
stumble over the documentation, and I always thought: heck, this is how 
an operating system should be documented. I even went so far as to be 
almost jealous of the handbook, and wishing there was something similar 
for Linux (so I went and even wrote one: http://tinyurl.com/no254g)


But a few days ago I decided to take the plunge. No, not migrate all my 
machines to FreeBSD. But I have two old NEC PowerMates in my office, for 
teaching and testing purposes, and I decided to download FreeBSD 8.0, do 
a lot of RTFM and just play with it and see if I can make it do all the 
things I'm doing with Linux (and maybe more). More recently, I've been 
attracted by the more centralized (and way less chaotic) development 
model of FreeBSD.


So far, after reading chapters 1 to 5 from the fine Handbook, I managed 
to install FreeBSD, configure X11 and install XFCE. This all raised a 
few questions, so I thought my next move would be to say hello in this 
list and ask my questions here, very soon.


Cheers from the freezing South of France,

Niki Kovacs

Hi,

 No, not migrate all my machines to FreeBSD.

The way I would do is, when I have to put up a new machine, I install
FreeBSD, but the existing ones, I keep them with the existing OS,
untill they need replacement.

Best regards,

Olivier

I don't know why, but it looks like I never crossed paths with FreeBSD. Only 
recently, I took a peek in the apparently well-written documentation. Now I 
have some spare time and also a spare machine (a Fujitsu Lifebook), and I 
thought I'd give FreeBSD a spin, just out of mere curiosity.

Moved to NetBSD, then to FreeBSD

Hi,

I'm an Austrian sysadmin living in Montpezat (South France), and a 100% 
GNU/Linux user since 2001. I've started with Slackware (7.1, I think) on 
 a battered 486, hopped distros for some time, used Mandriva, Debian 
and then Slackware again for a few years. In the last two years or so, 
I've been mainly using a mix of CentOS (a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 
clone) and Fedora.


I've been working as a writer for the french magazine Linux Pratique 
since 2004. For the last two years, my job consisted primarily in 
networking a series of small public libraries in eleven small towns 
around here, using 100% open source software.


I don't know why, but it looks like I never crossed paths with FreeBSD. 
Only recently, I took a peek in the apparently well-written 
documentation. Now I have some spare time and also a spare machine (a 
Fujitsu Lifebook), and I thought I'd give FreeBSD a spin, just out of
