i'm so happy now that a couple friends pointed me at CocoModX for playing mod/s3m/xm/it files on Mac OS X. it has much better playback quality than macmodplay. see you on irc!

i don't care what direction i'm in! if a fork is in any way in my ass, i'm going to yell out "there's a fork up my ass!"

why would a person in absolute agony need to determine which direction they were facing before indicating utensil penetration!

when i hear "Steve McQueen", i think about the fantastic 1985 album by prefab sprout and produced by thomas dolby. those in the united states would know it as "two wheels good". if you like rock music and you haven't heard this album, buy it!

i think this speech, in each of its four parts, was written for a batch of inexperienced, horny young adults who, at least in the male component, would repeat some of the quotes to each other later and high-five.

don't you think that's a good description of the audience?

geekyguy: once when i was a technical support engineer, i had to ask a caller for his email address. i won't repeat that address here, but i laughed after hanging up because his email address professed his adoration of a popular singer. he seemed slightly embarrassed about it!

i <3 thomas dolby's music, e.g. flying north, one of our submarines, screen kiss, budapest by blimp, the flat earth, pulp culture, i love you goodbye, and some parts of the mind's eye soundtrack.

i saw him perform (my first time) in SF a few weeks ago with bochum welt and i was pretty content. that was the first time i've heard leipzig. now he's doing another show as a headliner and i will be at that one too. two live shows in two months is a rare and awesome treat.... [more]

first: 70, second: 45. i came up with nicknames for some of them: jacket guy, face guy, white hair guy, etc. of course the descriptions could apply to many of them, and i didn't make nicknames for all of them, so that was more of a side-game than a strategy.

the way to save network television is to produce desirable content and show it on...get this...network television. is this story about saving network television if people are downloading episodes and watching them on an iPod, which is not a television?

I used to joke I could invent a product called the "nose picker 2000", nothing more than a plastic hand, index finger extended, on a stick, and sell a million of them on late night tv.

You'd need a product with a newer-sounding name to get my attention. oh wait, you got my attention... but not my money!

This is super awesome. I had great results starting with artists Monolake, Luomo, and The Whispers. I didn't care for the songs for my Annie Lennox and Prefab Sprout stations, although I will admit that the songs pulled up for those stations were a good fit. Because of Pandora, I added four CDs to my amazon.com wishlist.
