ok, I previewed "the wall", now I'm previewing "dark side of the moon" ... -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:44 28

      - there are millions of them who still get and listen to "albums" -- nm - hachiko Oct 21, 12:50
  - itunes. It doesn't preview from the beginning of the track, but a "meaningful excerpt". - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:49 6
    - Hell, I'll send you the songs when I get home. -- nm - BloodyAxeSean Oct 21, 12:50 5
      - The boy has no patience. -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 12:52 2

    - there is absoltuely no way I could do this. - znufrii Oct 21, 12:49 5
      - It may seem like a bit, but it really does make me a little sad. -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 12:53 4
        
        I can tell that a lot of artistry went into the albums, and that it inspires a passionate following ... it just doesn't work for the way I use music. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:54 3
        
        "the way I use music" says a lot. -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 12:56 2
        
        yes. I use it as background for other activities. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:56
        
        yup. -- nm - znufrii Oct 21, 12:56

      - so far, so good for me. 31 was the year that sucked. -- nm - znufrii Oct 21, 12:50

  - Click on woot, then on community--normally the second post gives the price and sometimes comparative prices. -- nm - Trish Oct 21, 12:48 2

  - Quinn, Santana and Britney are a smokin' 3some -- nm - Beaker Oct 21, 12:19 2
    - A VJ, a guitarist and a singer? - Spawn Oct 21, 12:20
    - This. -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Oct 21, 12:20
  - Even the cheerleader? -- nm - Dr.Vermin Oct 21, 12:18 9
    - link? -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 12:18 8

      - I care not for the show, but there's something wrong with you if this doesn't stir you. -- (link) - Reagen Oct 21, 12:20 6
        
        She looks good there, but looks meh on the show (and in that GQ). -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 12:21
        
        She is definitely my favorite. GQ is lame for excluding. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Oct 21, 12:21 4
        
        Confused. - Spawn Oct 21, 12:22 3
        
        My link is Dianna, Reagen linked to Heather Morris. - Dr.Vermin Oct 21, 12:24
        
        those are two different women. -- nm - Reagen Oct 21, 12:23 1
        
        Both cheerleaders? - Spawn Oct 21, 12:25
  - None of them? How many noses does she have? -- nm - Ender Oct 21, 12:18 16
    - I have very few deal breakers, but multiple noses are on the list. -- nm - Reagen Oct 21, 12:18 14
      - what if one of the noses was on the back of her head? -- nm - Lafarrow Oct 21, 12:33 2
        
        She'd likely be one helluva swimmer. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 21, 12:35
        
        IRYS! - Spawn Oct 21, 12:34
      - Even if she only wears one at a time? At the very least it makes sense to have a work nose, a casual nose, and a sunday-going-to-church nose. -- nm - Ender Oct 21, 12:23 1
        
        Imelda Marcos had like 1500 noses. -- nm - bloody mara Oct 21, 12:25

        Most of today's songs can fit into 25 seconds anyway, so could you just drop that already? :) -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:24 5
        
        But if I drop that, would I have to drop pixie being dumb? - Spawn Oct 21, 12:26 4
        
        No need to imagine. I just went through and did it. - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:38 3
        
        That is like reading the first page of each chapter of a book! -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 12:40 1
        
        Many books provide a chapter as a free preview. - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:41
        
        (However, I can clearly see from the previews that it's not constructed to be a collection of one-off songs) -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:40
        
        depends on what her face looks like -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:22
    - heh. The cast. -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 12:18
LIR: strange signs...san fran city hall marriage license counter had a sign that said "NO REFUNDS" - zeitgeist Oct 21, 12:15 7
- That doesn't seem that strange to me, I can see plenty of people getting a license and then wanting a refund after one of them gets cold feet before the actual wedding. -- nm - Ender Oct 21, 12:17 2
  - No, the main issue was idiots buying a license there, then going to Reno and discovering they were in another state...also - zeitgeist Oct 21, 12:34
  - or if the wedding license has an expiration date (for filing) and the wedding date gets bumped past it -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:20

    - Whatever you do, don't say his name three times. -- nm - Spawn Oct 21, 12:18
    - "...and that's why I'm so awesome. Can I lick your face?" -- nm - Reagen Oct 21, 12:18
*eats B2 and another bag of chips* - znufrii Oct 21, 12:14
I can't get no.. - zeitgeist Oct 21, 12:13
LIR for tru: The next one on the list is Alienware M 11 x, then HP TouchSmart tm2t. -- nm - bloody mara Oct 21, 12:13 2
- and it looks like you can't get that Toshiba anywhere anymore. -- nm - decline Oct 21, 12:25 1
  - Yeah, IIRC, I ordered a different model Toshiba Satellite. -- nm - mara Oct 21, 12:26
dano, did you make an ST post with that info for me to put in the box? -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:13 2
- Yes, it's here: -- (link) - BloodyAxeSean Oct 21, 12:15 [Backboard]
- I found it -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:14

- Did you see they released some of those games for the Kindle? -- nm - kilbooooo Oct 21, 12:16
I got me some bad news for you, Sunshine. Pink isn't well, he stayed back at the hotel, and he sent us along as a surrugate band. - Spawn Oct 21, 12:11
smurfy -- nm - Beaker Oct 21, 12:11 2
- SUMIFy -- nm - hachiko Oct 21, 12:12 1
  - it's too early in the morning for excel jokes. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 12:13
