"WHAT'S THAT MUSIC PLAYING ON YOUR WEBSITE?"
It's an excerpt from a Neil Young song you can find on the soundtrack to the movie "Dead Man" starring Johnny Depp (rock!).

"WHAT'S DIVX?" OR "HOW DO I GET THE VIDEO CLIPS TO WORK?"
Divx is a video compression 'codec'. I use this codec to compress the videos to a reasonable size so they don't take forever to download. This is especially good for you dial-up internet users out there. Unfortunately, this means you'll need to download and install the Divx codec on your computer. Don't worry, installing it is a breeze and it's free.

Download it at http://www.divx.com.

Special Note: Divx 5.2 for PC now contains spyware. I don't recommend downloading it from the divx site. I've made the old version (5.11) available for download here. It is spyware free. Soon, I'll be converting all the videos to the open source video codec, XviD.

"WHAT'S FLASH 6, AND WHERE DO I GET IT?"
The navigation bar uses Flash 6 for animations, mouse rollovers and to just make the site look cool in general. While it's pretty much a standard for most web browsers, if you don't have it you can get it for free at http://www.macromedia.com.

Or you can view the non-flash version of the site here.
"HOW DO I REPORT A BROKEN LINK?"
