	'body' => <<<END
<p>
	Marc with a C has set up a bit of a silly offer.
	If you buy <strong>*something physical*</strong> from him right now, you&apos;ll get a bonus $a[CD] thrown in, while supplies last.
	The silly part is that it has to be something physical, or you don&apos;t get the bonus album.
	I buy his digital work usually, which saves him money of physical $a[CD] production and saves me time waiting for shipment, not to mention saving money on the shipment itself.
	This bonus album is said to contain twenty-five song covers, two of which are not available elsewhere at the moment.
	I haven&apos;t purchased any music in a while, and I&apos;m not against having a physical $a[CD], though I don&apos;t really have a use for it, so I&apos;m taking him up on the offer.
	I want to get to bed though, so I&apos;m going to purchase his latest $a[CD], <a href="https://maracwithac.bandcamp.com/album/exactly-where-i-am">Exactly Where I Am</a>, without listening to the songs first.
	I should wait until I have time to pick out one of his best albums to purchase, but I don&apos;t want to space it and forget or wait too long and have him run out of supplies.
</p>
<p>
	I listened to the album all day at work, and it was an enjoyable experience, though most of the songs didn&apos;t reach out and grab my attention.
	My one complaint is that the song files are way too quiet.
	With the sound turned all the way up, I couldn&apos;t make out the words with all the work noises around me.
	If I were to shuffle the songs in with other albums, the effect would be worse as I would need to turn the volume down to be able to stand the other songs.
	One song that was catchy was Bootwater Suite: The Right To Bear Arms, which is about murder but is catchy nonetheless.
</p>
<p>
	Speaking of music, I found out last night that one of Brad Sucks&apos; albums is missing from my mobile.
	I was sure I had purchased all three.
	I checked my computer, and the album wasn&apos;t there either.
	Brad&apos;s download links expire too, so if I bought it and forgot to download it (or I downloaded it but lost it), I will need to purchase it again.
	However, the records on Brads&apos; website indicate that I never purchased it and my saved emails seem to indicate the same.
	I guess I just don&apos;t have his third album yet.
</p>
<p>
	My <a href="/a/canary.txt">canary</a> still sings the tune of freedom and transparency.
