Stupid links, random comments, and occasionally even sustained insight.

PSP Post!

Yes, it's finally happened. And yes, the text entry is still cell phone style, even though I can come up with a couple of better ways. Both still suck.

Like Old Times

Quiz again. Ha! Don't worry, I'll have a post that actually talks about me through some manner other than silly quizes and what music I listened to half a decade ago.

The Fourth Doctor
You are the Fourth Doctor: A walking Bohemian
conundrum with a brooding personal magnetism
and a first-rate intellect concealed somewhere
beneath your charmingly goofy exterior. You are
perhaps the most terribly clever of all the
Doctors, though your occasional bouts of
childishness get you in trouble. You never go
looking for a fight, but when someone messes
with you... good heavens, are they ever sorry
they did.

The BBC's Christmas special can't come soon enough for my tastes.

The only song I liked then that I don't now is that Goo Goo Dolls song. What've they been doing? Anything? Ah well. A lot I don't know, although I recognize the performers now; through the end of high school I listened to a lot of HTZ FM. It was local and played things like Rob Zombie and Metallica and AC/DC. I still love AC/DC, while hating the other two. Fun station. They played some not-hard rock stuff, which I still enjoy - but hard rock Mark died when he got old-school Napster. A lot of the songs I said I like (Destiny's Child and whatnot) only show up because I heard them after I got to university. I prolly don't even have the mp3s for them.

So that was me musically at the end of high school. How about you?

(I was just gonna change the link, but instead: Holy Fuck, my high school has a website. The world's moving too fast for me.)

Children, scootch closer

Okay, sure. Is this even real? Stupid intarwebs, can't trust nothin'. Google News doesn't reveal too much more than that, either.
