Link & Video Dump

I’ve gathered some links and videos, some political, most silly. Lazy blogging.
So to me Global Warming is like Truth or Dare:
TRUTH: We can either keep Global Warming in the news and convince people the truth is the planet is warming and we as humans might be causing Global Warming by pumping tons of CO2 [...]

Soundtrack to the movie of my life

okay so it’s a meme filler but it’s interesting. I’ve seen this around but can’t remember all where.
here’s how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc.)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that’s playing

Battle of the Bands! Round 6

Crossposted from my Last.fm music journal
We’re down from 160 to 4. For the final four, I’m going to re-seed based on total votes so far through the whole thing. It’s my battle and I’ll re-seed if I want to
How The Cure made it this far, I’ll *never* know (even though I voted for [...]

It’s a celebration, bitches!

Battle of the Bands! Round 5

Crossposted from my last.fm music journal.
Alright down to Round 5. There were a number of really close votes this time around, but no ties. I’m very disappointed that so many people really think The White Stripes are better than Beck (seriously?!), but hey, this is a vote not a dictatorship.
On to round 5 now. Same [...]

Battle of the Bands! Round 4

Crossposted last.fm music journal
Alright on to round 4. For round 4, I did just like the NCAA tournament and I did NOT reseed the bands as they moved on. It makes for some tough matchups but at this stage there will naturally be a lot of tough ones. How you choose is up to you, [...]

Not bad. Solid rock. Didn’t really grab me a ton but wasn’t bad.
The Fervor

I really enjoyed them, but then again I am partial to female lead rock. Their songwriting seemed really [...]

Tally Hall

You MUST listen to Tally Hall. They are one of the most kick ass bands I’ve come across in quite awhile. One of those bands where you hear them and wonder how in the hell you didn’t already know about them.
Saw their show at Radio Radio here in Indy on Wednesday night. They rocked my [...]
