Dear Goo Goo Dolls,

Re: Pandora.com's giant computer brain and the mysteries of the internet.

I haven't listened to you in years. Since, perhaps, 2001. However. You soft-rock my world.

Omg♥,


Me.

\m/ ^_^ \m/ <-- rocking out, ASCII-style

I would never throw tomatoes at a friend! I'm more like those grumpy old guys in the balcony on The Muppet Show.

Ah, so rather than a direct confrontation, you wait in the wings and mercilessly heckle whoever's on stage? :(

Sam is a bit scary. My English prof this term looked like he was designed by Hensons. All floppy and with scary eyebrows and wild hair.

There was an almost-Joss by me on the subway up to Downsview this morning. :)

Obviously, I haven't been watching enough TV if I see these people all around me. I'm so starved for TV that I try to make TV for myself wherever I go. Yes. That's exactly it.

I saw a Blue Nissan Versa on the road today when I was driving around town for work.

I wonder how many of those cars Nissan's sold since Heroes premiered?

I wonder about the demand for old Impalas (especially black ones) too.

The supply for the Nissans would be easier to fill, if anything. I'd probably go for a Nissan with a toy Impala keychain because the Nissan's probably more fuel efficient.

I can safely say that it is more fuel efficient, not to mention that it has a catalytic converter and the Impala probably doesn't and the Impala belches all kinds of nasty exhaust into the atmosphere, while the Versa doesn't so much.

And power steering, and heated seats, and a CD player... yeah. Go green or go Dean: tough question.

Well, if the Impala came with its very own Dean Winchester, then I'm pretty sure it is obvious what choice I would make :D

TRUE. But what if the Versa had a Hiro and/or Ando?

See, the computer in the FASAM centre isn't so hot with wiping cookies after you log out, so even if you've restarted the machine it'll remember your logins. So I come back one day, and my colleague has added another few stations to my pandora account. That's where all this 90s pop-rock is coming from. (He's actually scary, because he doesn't listen to anything from later than 1999.)

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

It's what I've been saying for years

My favourite song of theirs is "Slide". I hated it when it was originally released. Go figure.

I'm really grooving on "Here Is Gone", but I gave "Slide" another listen and I'm digging it, too.

pandora.com sounds like interesting. perhaps I'll start investigating after I put my CDs on my computer finally?

Pandora.com is internet radio so it comes to you streamed. Nothing to download or rip, it just runs (on flash?) from the site. It's pretty fun, and plays a good mix of known and unknown artists.

Hey hey hey... I'll have you know that for two full years this university has been employing me for my Intarwebs Kung Fu mastery. If anything, I should be calling you "grasshopper", young grasshopper. :P
