I've read a lot of the Bible, because I used to be a way-too-devoted-Christian. I've moved on.

Amnesiac is a cool album. I think I'll get back into Radiohead.

It's okay, my post was so awesome people were rendered speechless.

[QUOTE=madeyadams]Ray kills thread, more at 11[/QUOTE]

How did you know that Ray was going to kill the thread?

Anyway....

Yeah The Da Vinci Code was not as good as everyone thinks it is. It is very poorly written. The plot is pretty cool but the fact that he cant write totally ruined it for me.

[QUOTE=Byzantine]How did you know that Ray was going to kill the thread?[/QUOTE]

He killed it twice.

I still haven't read the Da Vinci Code. Maybe I'll get around to it eventually.

I have the audio book, it's my aunt's but I have it, and one day I might listen to it.

I'm gonna go shopping on eBay for The Who, Pink Floyd and Radiohead sh[B][I][/B][/I]ite.

Do you mean music or something else? I have plenty of Who (and Floyd for that matter) if you want some uploaded/sent to you.

I'm trying to get CD's. But the chances of any YSI links working on my computer or 1 in about 250. My browser is completely rejecting YouSendIt, but if you could upload a few cool songs from Tommy or Quadrophenia, it might work.

Unless you have AIM I'm not going to take those odds, so sorry. You should own the CDs anyway.

You ****ing killed the thread, Lunch.

Ok so I'm doing a thread on Rachmaninoff in a few. I better see some replies or whoever doesn't reply will be accused of being closed minded.

Rachmaninoff, the name sounds familiar. I'll read the thread to find out where I may have heard it.

Are any of you familiar with the Cool Thing Factor? Long story short, it's a term coined by cartoonist Fred Gallagher for the marketing tactic of making something appear so awesome, you [i]have[/i] to have it.

You know what else? [url=http://www.ellusionist.com/order/ghost/Ghost_Magazine_Ad.htm]It just started affecting me[/url]. I [i]must[/i] have one of those.

A deck of magic cards?

[QUOTE=RCA]Rachmaninoff, the name sounds familiar. I'll read the thread to find out where I may have heard it.[/QUOTE]
He's a classical composer.

[QUOTE=Moses]He's a classical composer.[/QUOTE]

WELL DURR

But I heard his name somewhere else too.

Like when people were playing one of his classical songs, maybe?

[QUOTE=Woodstock]A deck of magic cards?[/QUOTE]

Specifically, the "ghost deck." I already have a blue stripper deck. I just love the look of the ghost deck. A couple of those types don't even need to be used for magic. You can use them like regular playing cards if you want.

Magic is becoming a hobby of mine. And if there is one quality about me that I can take to a fault, it's that a relish standing out in a crowd by looking or doing something different than anybody else.

You seem to be a cynic when if comes to certain things. Movies, books, etc..

What didn't you like about his style, or writing, or whatever? I've finished TDC, and now I'm reading Deception Point. His style doesn't bother me at all. :-D

[QUOTE=RNR]Like when people were playing one of his classical songs, maybe?[/QUOTE]

No, no. I'm thinking I read about him in a section of the ACT. In fact, now I'm pretty sure that's where I heard his name before.

Steerpike, have you heard of the Pittsburgh-area band called Past Pluto? They're pretty cool, almost like RHCP or Jane's Addiction with a female singer (i.e. good bass player :)).

Those are some live photos. As you can see, the singer is quite attractive, and the bass player is tall and weird as usual :(

Oh, you're hysterical.

[quote=munky]I think we should make a motion to get Med local'd, or super'd so he can do R&M and A&I.

Either that or Riva gets promoted. I think they'll be more willing to give it to Med though since he Mods Sputnik already.[/quote]

I was mentioning it to another mod (I included you, though, along with Jason. For serious.), and he said that he doesn't think Jim will see the need for it, especially with Bartender helping around.

Of course, if there's enough support backing it, they might consider it.

EDIT: By "it," they meant leaning towards Med.

[quote=evilmenhavenosongs]I have a flute :cool:[/quote]

Fixed.

I'm much, much better at trumpet than I am at guitar and the keys.

I'M HIGH ON JE-SUS![/quote]

Hahahaha, this cracked me up.

Growing up in the Detroit area, there are a lot of Baptist churches. I wouldn't be surprised if this was said in them, complete with the "Awww no!"s, "Preach it, Reveren'!"s, and "I love Lahd Je-Sus!"es.

[quote=Mr. Blue Sky]But Jesus, God, they're the same things aren't they?[/quote]

Not exactly, but a reasonable guess. Let me know if I'm supposed to explain or something.

FTR: I didn't really get the gist of the drug-using God. But maybe it's because I worked a long day and I'm not getting the joke.

FTR: I think it's stupid to form opinions on people and/or things without experiencing 'em first. But hey, that's just me.

Sup to all.

That would stand to reason, RCA. On the PSAT, there were little bits about interesting people throughout the godforsaken test. Crap, that test was painful. :-/

The real SAT is 12 times worse than the PSAT.

Hoo-ah! (Al Pacino voice a la Scent of a Woman) 7K posts.

Tell me about it! I think I walked out of there with five headaches.

The ACT is the retarded brother of the SAT. Im glad im in an ACT area :D

Yeah, and now there's a freaking essay section. :shrug: At least I like writing.

I did exceptionally bad on the PSAT because that morning, me and my dad were fighting and stuff, so my knuckles were tired from opening a can of whoop-a[B][I][/I][/B]s on him. :angry:

Eh, she's okay. Though the drummer and guitarist remind me of old classmates of mine, and the bassist looks like he could be a long-lost brother of mine.

I'll look into them some time.

Gotta love Mississippi. We can take it all four years of high school too, to see how much money we can get for college. :D

The drummer looks like the guy, Chad, from Chapelles show when they did "Mad Real World"

Ghetto chick:This is where people start getting real
White guy Chad: Mad Real

My cousin and I coined the term [I]mad sick.[/I]

/is white than this white guy Chad

EDIT: It occured to me- Do you think that animals perceive humans to all look alike? Look at cows, they all look the same, but they can probably differentiate between one another via black and white spots, but we basically consider them to all look the same, correct? Well, do you think animals think all humans look alike?

Late night thoughts with The Doc. :cool:
