Election Day.
even though i'm not a repub, i called a bunch of registered repub's to see if they were gonna vote for talent because it was some money in my pocket. I already absentee ballad voted. I threw up a little when i saw my options for governor in Illinois.

Box Office Boffo 4 Borat!!!!!
i think there is a large diff b/w SOAP and borat, borat stemmed from da Ali G show, which has grown tremendously thanks to the internet, so the audience was being met up perfectly with the film release.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Nov 4, 2006 -> 06:48 AM) And to top it off, i just found a handful of unreleased Trout Mask Replica covers from a project he'll apparently never get around to finishing and they are also cool as hell. that just sounds like a bad idea to me.

MP3 player thread
QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Nov 3, 2006 -> 10:43 PM) I didn't take it personally, if that what you took my response as. Like my post said, I think Ipods are overrated and underproduce. Apple needs to know there are definitely alternatives out there. Competition spurs innovation, which they are the leader in this category. I think they're lazy, right now, however. Any consumer willing to shell out 250-300 bucks off their hard earned cash should deserve better; demand it, even. while this is true, the style and interface of the ipods are more important, and however not true it is, people think that ipods are setting the standard in tech.

MP3 player thread
QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Nov 3, 2006 -> 07:56 PM) No doubt the ipod isn't in trouble, but that was why I went and did some research. The point of my review is that you can get twice as much product with reasonably the same amount of ease of use and style. the short: I wouldn't break my arm patting myself on the back after i bought an ipod. Itunes is a nice show, but if you're willing to put any amount of effort into your portable, ipods just don't hold their overvalued weight. Ipods = VW in the late ninties I use "Kleenex" when I have to blow my nose, but I look at comperable items with similar quality and superior quantity. I'm not impressed with the Kleenex brand simply because it revolutionized the tissue paper industry. at what point in my post did you think that I was referring to a single person, especially yourself?

LOST! thread
the only compelling thing is whether this is just another manipulation by juliette. As someone somewhere said, "if she wanted him dead, why wouldn't she just let him die. He's got a terminal tumor on his neck"

the ipod will not be in trouble for quite a while. Its a cultural phenomenon, people even call products that aren't ipods - ipods. Somebody stole my ipod. I was hoping i'd catch them in this thread...

you're nuts animal collective and wolf parade are the bee's knees. Hey dylan and/or DePloderer, do you know how the Waits cd set is ordered? Is it somewhat chronological or anything, or is it strictly a sort of theme, and i'm missing it. That said: Fish in the Jailhouse

QUOTE(BobDylan @ Oct 29, 2006 -> 10:59 PM) Woah, Woah, slow down there (unless you are talking ONLY about pop music, which I think you are). The late 90's feature: Pulp - Countdown Pulp - Hardcore Radiohead - OK Computer Godspeed You! Black Emperor - slow riot for new zero kanada Sigur Rós - Agaetis Byrjun Bob Dylan - Time Out Of Mind Andrew Bird's Bowl Of Fire - Oh! The Grandeur Beck - Mutations Beck - Odelay Belle and Sebastian - The Boy With The Arab Strap Belle and Sebastian - Tigermilk The Beta Band - The Three E.P.'s I'd keep going but there are too many to mention. i was talking about pop music exclusively. And AB wasn't really a hit until 2000 i'm sure you'll agree.
