there seem to be 3 tracts in college:
1)The kids that go to class but don't buy the books cause they realize the teacher just goes over the s*** in class.
2)The kids that don't go to class but know the books by heart cause they know that the teacher just goes over that s*** in class
3) And me, the kid whose too scared to do either this early in his career.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Aug 28, 2006 -> 09:59 PM)I cannot believe that I am the only one in here who has any classical, jazz or soundtrack music in their iPod. I do see one or two blues tracks, though.
ten out of 6000 songs
i have every miles davis, duke ellington, roland kirk, coltrane, parker, etc etc album but jazz albums typically had longer songs = fewer songs = less chance in this lottery bro.

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Aug 28, 2006 -> 08:01 PM)i like college a lot, but miss my good friends back home like everybody else. But the weather here in mizzou is nice at night, but sucks during the day. Went to a frat party over the weekend, which was an experience, but since I really don't drink, I have no crazy stories. The mizzou rec center is insane, i go there everyday, sometimes twice. Homework not bad and there are some damn hot girls. And got my football tix for the year today, can't wait for the OK/Missouri game. AP is amazing. So far so good.its pretty cool how many home games we have this year isn't it?

it certainly came across that way...but i'm done arguing this point.

QUOTE(Steff @ Aug 28, 2006 -> 07:01 PM)I don't shop at those stores so I don't have any clue as to what teen clothes costs. My sister buys for a 5 year old and my cousin for 9, 11, and 12 year olds so that's all I know about.
I do think that unless you are in charge of ones checkbook then you really don't know what is or isn't the better value for them, so I'm done commenting on that specific point.
He can make a general point of interest based off his specific experience that the other person may not have known about. Thats the general atmosphere of most threads. As his point could and did pertain to a greater majority than the post it was directed to, and was not underriding their opinion, merely stating why he thinks there is an opposing viewpoint based on his own experience. The only person who has underrided anyones opinion in this thread has been you with "I do think that unless you are in charge of ones checkbook then you really don't know what is or isn't the better value for them, so I'm done commenting on that specific point."
I don't think there should be any "you need to be this high to ride this rollercoaster" threads in here, do you? Kind of discourages people from commenting their welcome opinions.

I think a uniform of a collared polo and jeans/long khakis / adjusted for spring would be more than reasonable/acceptable...

i had my first week of my second year...can i talk about that...or am i already grown past that...damnit...i can't go trick or treatin either.

I'm not referring to making the girls wear plaid knee length skirts and blouses and the dudes wear suits. There is a reasonable medium. Uniforms could certainly cut down on first impression prejudices and help kids respect themselves more.
-
I think uniforms should be enforced for public schools. Kids aren't expressing themselves in high school, they are expressing MTV. Make school their job.

this felt like i was stabbed in the stomach, and the knife twisted, and then a blow torch was taken to my heart.

QUOTE(Rex Kicka** @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 03:17 PM)I have become obsessed with "Circus Maximus" by Momus and "Oh, You're So Silent Jens" by Jens Lekman.
i was also suprised to see how his live material had such life to them. I'm definitely looking forward to all the new jens lekman songs coming out soon.

QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ Aug 25, 2006 -> 06:41 PM)Oh word? You're a vinyl head? I'm working on crate #17. I've hit a wall with hip hop, jazz fusion, and reggae, though.
Did you ever get that Krown Rulers album off sandbox?
I'm getting into a lot of obscure soul nowadays. My jam of the moment is Fantastic Johnny C's "Boogaloo Down Broadway". That track is pure FIRE. They have the full soundclip right here, if you want to hear it:
crate 17 ye gods. My vinyl collection is as follows...
Velvet underground - White Light/ White Heat , Loaded, VU, VU and Nico
Lou Reed - Transformer
Slint - Spiderland
MF Doom - mmm... Food
Animal Collective - Feels
Bob Dylan - Blonde on Blonde, Blood on the Tracks (i can't find dylan vinyls at my shop its frustrating)
Beatles - White Album, Revolver, Rubber Soul
Devendra Banhart - Cripple Crow
Edan - Beauty and the Beat
Yann Tierson - Rue Des Cascades
Neu! - Neu!, Neu! 2
Bowie - Low
GY!BE - Lift Yr Skinny Fists like antennas to heaven
and no i forgot about the sandbox one...
QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Aug 25, 2006 -> 06:33 PM)He has a point if you agree with him and dislike the sound of modern recordings. I've heard many great sounding recordings as of late. The new one from The New York Dolls sounds great, and much better than their releases from the 70's. The new release from Butch Walker sounds great. Indie band Chinatown's new album sounds amazing.Certain forms of music might sound better on vinyl, but it needs to be a style that lends itself to the format. A band using distortion will possibly benefit from vinyl, but the Chicago Symphony Orchestra or many Prog Rock bands will benefit from the clarity of the digital form, if they don't compress the hell out of it. YOu can hear more within digital, and that was something people realized when the CD "revolution" began. When I hard The Sisters Of Mercy's album First and Last and Always for the first time on CD I was blown away by how many more aspects of the material presented itself to me. Things I had NOT heard before were suddenly there. It's hard to say that you lose sound on digital but on vinyl they are there. I don't understand how that could be possible. I think Dylan is just reacting like many people do as they get older. Thinking the new generations are crap and whatnot.
a point isn't only valid if you agree with someone. I'm not trashing cd quality, but for whatever reason, the mixing on albums digitally has started to become so compressed that its just one loud noise. There isn't a bass and drums and a guitar, its just a wall. I will say recent remasters have given me hope that the trend is disappearing, yes, people like to listen to their music loud, but there has to be a happy medium. Imagine just going to your equalizer and just putting everything up to its top level... The vinyl releases of the past 15 years have had, for whatever reason, a more meticulous mixing, truer to the studio sound i'd imagine. Also vinyl releases have come with extra songs a lot of the time. I'd say the biggest victim of digital has been jazz. Jazz needs a warmer sound, but more than that, the cd releases of sketches of spain and a love supreme were bad to the point of irresponsibility. I heard a new release of a love supreme that sounded 10x better, but a lot of those albums were rushed to just get out there and not looked back at since.
