QUOTE(The Critic @ Aug 29, 2006 -> 05:06 PM) I didn't have one until this past Father's Day, and I'm still not 100% into the damn thing. At least it's not freezing on me anymore (knock on wood) - I guess I had a corrupt music video file on there or something, when I deleted all my music videos from it, the freezing stopped. I'm getting used to it, though - it is nice to use it at work to listen to music or the occasional (but very rare) podcast. I only listen to two podcasts - The Rock & Roll Geek Show and Destroy Your Radio. But since I didn't bring the pod to work today, NO shuffle for now! i enjoy KCRW's morning becomes eclectic quite a bit. They are mostly non electric sets but offer glimpses to unknown artists, and different versions to artists songs by the well known artists.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 29, 2006 -> 02:39 AM) It worked out real well last year to be honest, did my best in school since like 7th grade. Like snb said, it's basically knowing which classes you can get away with not going to. Lectures for the most part are pointless to me cause notes are on the internet a lot of times or whatever. Just cram the night before a test and you can get by. no, like i KNOW, but i just can't...i can't bring myself to do it. I'd have too much anxiety. Been this way for a while...i still slag behind but as long as i went to class i feel like i'm invincible. It's weird. I can't explain it well.

grazi!!!

so you just gotta add the percentage to win the division and the percentage of the wildcard for total percentage!!!

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Aug 29, 2006 -> 02:05 AM) BLAST!

that would freak me out...too many variables to get screwed.

i own the following soundtracks, looking for rec's: The last of the mohicans All wes anderson movie soundtracks all jon brion scored soundtracks Hook OST suggestions? also let me do round two... Spit on a Stranger - Pavement (terror twilight) Group 4 - Massive Attack (mezzanine) Fingerbib - Aphex Twin (Richard D. James album) Afford - Akron / Family (Akron / Family lp) Oh Larson B - British Sea Power (Open Season) Stare - Pavement (Cut Your Hair ep) No One Will Ever Love You - Magnetic Fields (69 Love Songs) Crevice - Beans (A Warp Records Mix) Addition - Ataxia (Automatic Writing) AndMoreAgain - Love (Forever Changes) another list sans hip hop, but luckily left off my guilty pleasures (Rihanna - S.O.S.)

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.

don't go to restaurants...you'll save a lot of money.

awesome...we play kansas at home this yearwhich'll be fun (always is)

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.

i love my film studies class beginnings - 1945 (roughly) class. I think i may take more of these.

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...

And i'm going to see BtS sept 18th, if you'll remember, they were s'poseda play back in april but postponed and now i'm ultra excited. I hope they play Randy Described Eternity

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.

so sad...

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.

i hit the 6000 song mark in itunes...i got to do some cleaning up with my external.
