[QUOTE=GaggingOrder]Wait, why are we all finishing the new Harry Potter book? Didn't it just come out? And isn't it over 800 pages?!? ...Nerds.[/QUOTE]

No, it's just over 600 pages. I read the last one within the day it came out, and that was longer than this one. I'm taking my time a bit more with this one, though.

Well i read the first one in a matter of weeks and read about half the second one and it bored me to tears so i gave up on it. I might read the third though, because I loved the movie and it's the favorite in the series according to a bunch of my friends so we'll see

Steerpike : Lost Horizon kick so much butt. Thank you very much.

As long as they aren't Vertical Horizon.

No my boob obsessed friend, Lost Horizon it is.

Can anyone help me with audacity real quick? If so, please read my post on the July Cover Comp thread. I'm almost done with the editing for our cover, audacity won't let me copy and paste. :evil: Or move anything around.

audacity hates you :p. It doesnt sound like [I]you[/I]'re doing something wrong. Why dont you try to to re install it?

[QUOTE=Bartender]Incidentally, is your user title based on the Stiff Little Fingers song?[/QUOTE]

It's based on the Bob Marley song "Johnny Was". Is the Stiff Little Fingers song a cover or something?

EDIT: Yes it is

[QUOTE=Stoic]audacity hates you :p. It doesnt sound like [I]you[/I]'re doing something wrong. Why dont you try to to re install it?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I know. :upset:
I'll definately try that though. I'm getting really pissed off. We have the whole song recorded, in different parts, the majority of the song is complete, but I have to add the last part in and it won't let me do it.

EDIT: Ray - How is the theme song for the show coming along? I also wanted to ask you, how it is working? Are we just posting as if we are the characters, or is it more like an RPG?

I have zero access to the right instruments and recording equipment right now, so I'm not far along. Also, I honestly have no idea...it started out as some innocent remark I made and somehow it was blown completely out of proportion.

Ah. :lol: That can happen. People get excited.

It's noontime, and I have the sudden urge to play Chrono Trigger until I implode.

Hey are you still doin Chapter Four in the cover comp?

[QUOTE=Steerpike]I read the first four in 72 hours. Don't doubt the power of the literate.[/QUOTE]
:fast reading H5:

I finished my new one in about 10 hours because as I have said, I read at an alarmingly fast rate...

I got to about page 300 hundred yesterday, then had to struggle to put it down and go to sleep.

/nerd.

I finished the new book at about 10 o'clock last night after purchasing it at 1:30 that morning. I'm sad I couldn't make myself savor it, and I'm especially upset because there's so much stuff that needs to be resolved that will take five years for me to find out, based on Rowling's rate of production.

The ending to this new one was extremely distressing. Nothing that I wanted to happen between the characters happened. I guess that's natural, to set up for the seventh book, but still. The waiting for the final installment will kill me.

Funny thing is, I'm not really that worked up about Harry Potter at the moment.

Mostly, I've been reading over a volume of H.P. Lovecraft stories that I had a hard time finding at first. And I just finished "Good Omens" by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett and am left to wonder why there hasn't been a movie about it yet.

which lovecraft ones?

I still need to find the longer, short novel ones- at the mountains of madness etc. I have the other two short story omnibuses

[QUOTE]No my boob obsessed friend, Lost Horizon it is.[/QUOTE]

:angry: @ U

So, my computer at home is screwing me badly again. Connection won't work, therefore I couldn't post my pics of Sounds of The Underground and (in Joe's words) "come on here now just to belittle everybody's posts".

I'm a sad, sad man.

[QUOTE=Lord Abortion]which lovecraft ones?

Mostly stuff from the dream cycle and a few miscellaneous short stories which aren't part of the Mythos proper, but are nevertheless counted among it, such as "The Beast in the Caves," "Entombed with the Pharoahs," and "The Lurking Fear."

"The Lurking Fear" is another Lovecraft story I hope to one day make a film adaptation out of.

Stupid YDload and his dam[B][I][/I][/B]n user title. Now I don't even want to read Harry Potter, as Dumbledore is the man. :upset:

What the hell is with that dumb bit[B][I][/I][/B]ch? It's like in every book, she's killing of the coolest characters. First Sirius Black, now this? :fistshake:

In other news, I learned Dredg's Catch Without Arms(the song) in about half an hour. Usually it takes me at least a couple of sittings to master a song. w00t, I sense progress!

so how is Pickman's model coming along?
"But by God Eliot, it was a photograph from [I]life[/I]..."
the lurking fear is great, The shadow out of time has to be my favourite Lovecraft story ever though.

[QUOTE=Jakeo]Stupid YDload and his **** user title. Now I don't even want to read Harry Potter, as Dumbledore is the man.

What the hell is with that dumb bitch? It's like in every book, she's killing of the coolest characters. First Sirius Black, now this? :fistshake:[/QUOTE]

I'd care if I were 12 again :p .

That was an ignorant comment...

She should kill Harry Potter. That'd be awesome.

I spent today at work giving this girl who hasn't read it little clues to the plot which she guessed in a minute, I suck at misinformation, when I said Harry goes out with someone, (sorry jake for letting that slip) she said "who is she? it is a she isn't it?"
we laughed for a while and then I did her on her till...
(only part of this is true)

for fun I will now add big Jake on msn...

I almost scored with a hot chick, for once, last night at a local show. Sadly, my timing was off...:( Missed chances...

I guess Rowling had to write Dumbledore out of the script since the actual who played him in the movies died, heh.

Anyway, I should have expected by visiting MX that there'd be spoilers. I have yet to purchase the book, so I guess I'm in no rush now.

Was that you on AIM talking to/taunting Ray?

I don't think so, Chris. :confused:

What was I talking to/taunting him about? :-/

Slowly. I have this elaborate vision in my head, but translating it to paper is much different than transferring it to film.

Haha

We're all in the AIM chat, and soon after you left, this person joins with the name bignblack. He immediately starts having a go at Ray, saying some stupid stuff. Apparantly he told Ray that he was you. He knew your past username and everything..

Jessica Alba also came into that chat, but I know who that was. :p
