    Y2KChaos

    The only good thing to come out of the Y2K hysteria is that we won't hear from those idiotic militia groups for a while. They're busy using up the five years' worth of food and ammo they hoarded.
  2. Who knows, but if we attach grippers to our tails we could build some interesting formations.
  3. McDonald's is probably already planning The Woolly Mac.
  4. Do I have to factor in the time I spent pulled over since the speed limit was 25?
  5. Wow, look at the way this thread has gone, from people rightfully, trashing greedy individuals, to misinterpreted slights at people from a region, to making a sweeping statement about Americans in general, to one Texan trashing other Texans(in jest, of course?). We have met the enemy, he is us!
  6. Hey, there's an idea, let the cannibals have them for dinner.
  7. Wouldn't it be poetic justice if the parts they stole were radioactive and fried their privates?
  8. That's really good. Sometimes for songs like these, a dissonant sound adds a "haunting" element. Being a jazz player, I'm sure you'll understand. Minor 9th cords with the 2nd and 3rd intervals played in a linear fashion work well. Enough theory, try this for the Am as an example: Low E - don't play - you'll play the E on the first string. A string - open D string - 2nd finger on E G string - 4th finger on B B string - 1st finger on C E string - open Technically it's not a complete cord because the G is missing, but the ear will fill in. You can easily apply the concept to the other cords as you see fit. Hope you like the idea. - Duke Ellington
  9. Funny Are you sure it wasn't high school seniors who came up with those?
  10. Those are powerful words. I think the cords played as arpeggios would complement the lyrics nicely.
  11. IE6 Explore THIS, Mr. Gates!
  12. I found out the hard way. Now, can I download IE on top of the old one to fix the problem? Good luck LINUX, hope you slaughter MS!
  13. So I'm listening to some MIDI files on a web site and I get a message from Microsoft telling me I should download a security service pack. I do that, and now Explorer won't play MIDIs anymore. After miles of trudging through the "knowledge base", I come up with nothing. They will help, but only if I pay! They issue a defective product, then expect you to pay them to fix it!!! Well, they can suck eggs. I'm using Netscape, Mozilla, Opera, ANYTHING but their crappy browser!!! There, I feel much better now.
  14. Why don't you post the number as an mp3? Then we could understand the feeling you're trying to convey. That would make it easier to suggest ways to embellish the comping.
  15. I wonder if they're going to sue McDonalds
  16. A traveling salesman's car breaks down in the country. He walks up to a farmer's house for help. The farmer says "You're welcome to stay the night until help arrives tomorrow. But I have a small house and no extra room, so you'll have to sleep with my son." The salesman says, "Sorry, I'm in the wrong joke," and leaves.
  17. Now, if they would come up with hybrid Otters, we'd really have something. Imagine getting a tax deduction for every skydive?
  18. I know someone who bought the Toyota Prius. She got a $2000.00 deduction, paid no sales tax, and can drive in the HOV lanes with no passengers in the car. She did say she's getting 37 mpg instaed of the advertised 50, but she's very happy with the car.
  19. Thanks for that. BBC is a great source for news and intelligent analysis. Our media in the U.S. could learn a lot from them.
  20. I think that last "nookyooler" gave me alcohol poisoning.
  21. Did you hear about the leper hockey game? There was a face-off in the corner. A prostitute worked a leper colony and did very well until business started dropping off. Did you hear about the leper that got in a car accident? He left his foot on the gas.
  22. Well, I think it was nice of you to keep Trent Lott company.
  23. What do you call a nun that's had a sex change operation? A transistor.
  24. JS Bach - The Brandenburg Concerto series.The counterpoint is absolutely wild in the allegro movements. Mozart - Anything by this genius, especially his horn concerti. Haydn - Horn concerto in Eb major. Beethoven - Piano sonatas. Jazz is #1, but I still listen to classical every day. Welcome back to the world of music - get your chops down and let's jam
