Friday Findings (17 April, 2009 Edition)
Apr. 17th, 2009 12:29 pmShameless plug! We have a Roleplaying Game Demo Night at Tyche's Games tonight starting at 6.
Join my (virtual) dojo! Silly online fighting game.
What you need, my friends, is your own personal (programmable) soundtrack t-shirt. Though I want an MP3 player that adjusts what it is playing to the conditions around me.
On the more serious side, what should be done about music no longer in print? A whole community of bloggers are providing downloads of these otherwise unavailable pieces of music. Pretty cool if in a legal gray area.
Wired reports of civilian uses for nuclear explosives (they call they crazy, I think creative is better).

Wikipedia Band Meme
Mar. 2nd, 2009 04:45 pmBecause, why not?
It goes like this:
-Go to “Wikipedia.” Hit “random” and the first article you get is the name of your band.
-Then go to “Random Quotations” and the last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.
-Last, go to Flickr and click on “Explore the Last Seven Days” and the third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
-Bonus round, what sort of music does the band play?
Baroness Louise Lehzen
What have you got? Fat birds

So, I am thinking some sort of Indie-Gothic band with an occasional bizarre pop piece thrown in to confuse people.

Fictional Letter Meme
Sep. 14th, 2008 08:15 pmNot quite as neat as it sounds. But still amusing, it works like this:
1. Comment on this post.
2. I will give you a letter.
3. Think of 5 fictional characters whose name starts with that letter and post their names and your comments on these characters in your LJ.
comic_monkey gave me Y. The punk.
