I was seriously considering it today.  And the fact they fall on Tuesday-Wednesday is sort of the deal breaker.  Any other two day pair would be okay.

So I say, just let that concert rip, play something wild that the fans don't expect, and try to ignore that TV camera. Yes, it's wearing a Quacker Factory headband, but just don't pay it any mind.

Really?  I was under the impression they'd be playing quite a bit.  I mean, they can't have models showing off the goods like Quacker Factory.  They have to show the music, so they might as well take advantage of the live band playing.

Yes, guitars would be a nice touch.
As for the streaming video, I could try that. Just like last night, when I got home from work, I figured I'd spend a few minutes on the internet, check my IM link for the presale...and uhh...the internet didn't work!. Just as well, didn't use the pre-sale anyway.
But worst thing that can happen if I try the streaming video is I lose a small part of my soul and my avatar turns back into a big pirate smiley.  :-/

And speaking of internet friends, I accepted your youtube friend invite.  I have no idea what it means, but I accepted.  You should be honored because I have rejected every single friend invite on my other youtube account.  :D

Clue:  The Anna Nicole version

Howard K. Stern, in the bedroom, with the pills.

This is what happens when I try to be a good student.  I go spend time doing work and going to class and I get home and have two parents leaping at the door to tell me Anna Nicole died.

Someone needs to make a soap opera based around the last 8 months of her life.  Holy crap.

Sharing a very special picture with you all.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v337/crookedrhyme/just%20weird/NVE00001.png

Let me explain.  For some reason I can't really explain I have a class in the conference room of the geology dept at my school.  There are cases with rocks and minerals in it, pictures of astronauts (why?  I don't know), and this very special piece of artwork.  I've been trying to discreetly get a picture for the last 4 weeks, but I can't get in the room without a key and I forget my camera or my camera phone dies.  So I took some discreet video yesterday, hence the sucky quality you see.

Anyways, the picture is - a polar bear shaking hands with a penguin on a little ice island in the ocean.  The polar bear is wearing boots and the penguin is wearing a scarf.  And behind them is a big Japanese sun.  It's the most ridiculously awesome thing ever.  My very dry 150 year old British professor rambles about biomineralization and I just find myself staring at the painting.  

I have an incredible urge to steal it... which is probably almost almost legal, seeing as it's a state school and I helped pay for that piece of artwork, I'm sure.

SNOOOOOOOOOW DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY. ;D

I'm here.  But apparently school and work and 'real' friends require that I leave my computer sometimes.  :-/

And I gotta admit it - I'm bored.  No radio or tv appearances lately.  The tour seems to have fallen into the same old same old trap again so reviews aren't interesting.  And the interviews in press lately are all just recycled or make me sad/mad.  Or maybe winter has just gone on too long and I'm being a jerk.  Or something.

I'm still trying to determine if that is real or not.  Like, is this guy gonna actually put up the footage somewhere or is this just a mock trailer to something that doesn't actually exist.  The fact that the poster claims to be from Lichtenstein makes me believe the latter.

I was just thinking today how excited I am for the double header next week. I have a b-day coming up next month and my hubby surprised me with a new camera. He gave it to me early so I could use it at the shows.....what a guy! I can't wait to use this new camera. It's get better zoomer, higher megapixels, higher ISO.....I'm in heaven!

Ha ha.  I was thinking about it earlier today.  My classes are working out that I wouldn't die if I skipped two days and that front row mezzanine ticket up there is screaming at me (I'd love to be able to bootleg a whole show someday).  Unfortunately, I didn't request the days off work (and will find out my schedule tomorrow), don't have accomodations, and I think my family would commit me...  :D

Yay for the new camera!  Go out and buy lots and lots of memory for it.  You have less than a week to master it.  And I love hearing about husbands that are supportive.  I hear about husbands ragging on their wives for liking the band and it makes me even less interested in getting married.  :D

My hubby's the BEST! He supports me completely in my musical obsessions....lol.

The best thing about this camera is that it's basically what I had before only upgraded. So I already know how to use it. I'm heading out tomorrow to buy a huge memory card. I want it to be big enough to capture some videos this time.

I told you before .... there's room here to crash if you decide to join us for the double header.

Nicole, Nicole.....buy me! Actually that's an awesome seat. The State Theater is my favorite venue for shows. It's so small and intimate that even the balcony seats are good. But mezzanine are fantastic!

I'm hoping it'll leave on its own, it's been under there for a few days now. My dog has been obsessed with something underneath the porch, and finally today someone took a look underneath to see what was there, and they were 5 feet away from the porcupine.

The dog is very good at finding porcupines and sticking her nose in them. She once did it twice in the same day.  ::)

Hmmmm..... feel free to disagree with me on this one (I know I'm in a minority :P) but IMO, Without You Here is the weakest song on the album (although I guess there are a few more there jostling for the same accolade ::) ) - it makes me cringe everytime I listen to it. I'd love to ask John whether he still considers Iris to be the "sappiest" song he's ever written... ;)

But hey, who am I to say whether people will buy it or not. It seems to be a popular wedding song, so...who knows. I hope it does well anyways.... :-/

Eh, could be worse.  I don't think it's the worst song they could go with, but I hate pretty much all of the songs, so I can't say what I'd prefer to be the single.

Confession: I forgot all about We'll Be Here.  I guess this would be my #2 or #3 song on LLI and since John likes to talk about how all of the love songs on LLI AREN'T love songs, We'll Be Here would be good, because that's the only one I believe isn't a love song.

I just spent 20 minutes looking for the article and I'm so mad I can't find it.  I did find a quote from John that says he liked GF for what it was, so just Robby hates it apparently.

Start the collection of harder live feel promises now.  Next album, between that collection and all the LLI bashing from the band, we'll have so much fun.

Start the collection of harder live feel promises now.  Next album, between that collection and all the LLI bashing from the band, we'll have so much fun.


I can't wait to hear what the band says about LLI after the next album is out. If they don't bash it, at least as much as they bash GF, then I'll really lose respect for them.

Found this on Robin's (It's All Goo) board:

From KINK FM 102...

GOO GOO DOLLS WILL LET LOVE IN ON APRIL 4TH.

The Goo Goo Dolls finally have a title and release date for their upcoming album.

In an exclusive interview yesterday in Colorado, the band revealed that the disc will be out on April 4th and will be called Let Love In. It will, of course, feature the hit single �Better Days,� but John Rzeznik says that�ll be the only ballad on the album. The Goos were in Breckenridge, Colorado to tape a show for the concert series Music with Altitude. The performance will air February 25th on MHD � the new high-definition channel being launched on Monday by MTV, VH1 and CMT.

I have it on good authority that George is busy with his current band, and is unable to fulfill the above fantasy.

"The Curse" is a phenomenon that seems to occur on some of the many-paged threads, like the Name Change threads. It seems like after a thread reaches a certain number of pages, maybe it's the threads with a lot of pics in siggies that need to download, I dunno...
but what happens is when you are the last person to post on a particular page, your post gets hung up and the next page will not show up until after a delay, and a few other posts have been entered. Then they all show up.

Anyways... a story...

I was sitting in the library on my very last day of Spring Break.  I was nice and peacefully using a research database in the empty computer section of the room and some dude comes and sits right next to me.  I don't look up, but I can hear him panting.  It was so loud I had to look because I thought he was wearing an oxygen mask and waiting on a lung transplant list.  He wasn't.  So, for the next hour I have this dude sitting next to me, panting, stretching, and GRUNTING while looking at sports websites, talking on his phone, and listening to headphones so loud I could hear his music.  Finally I got so annoyed I left.  In conclusion, this is why I hate people.

Don't you hate that?

We live on the corner of the block. So, sometimes not only do they plow in our driveway, but if there is enough snow they also plow snow onto the whole corner of our block. And of course, they wait until after we,well ok, mostly my husband, has already shoveled the sidewalk. So, then the driveway and the sidewalk are plowed in again. Ugh, well Spring will be here next week.

I liked the rose background a lot.
But it warmed the cockles of my heart when I logged on this afternoon (I'm still battling that frozen, glaciated hunk o' snow at the end of my driveway...) and I saw that you were rocking the shamrock background. Very nice! Cool avatars too. Some of the names...egads!

Yeah, but when you hit update it does it.  When you hit delete it asks "do you really want to delete your profile?" or something like that, so only people who don't pay attention actually delete themselves.  ::)

I know what you mean. On Friday there is a show in CT that is about 2 hours from me and it's GA. I'm holding out. I'm not driving that far to wait in-line for a GA show for that stinkin' setlist. (Of course, I always have to drive alone. My GOO friends don't live near me and I usually have to drive by myself and meet them at the venue. Another reason for not taking the drive.)

My husband still doesn't believe I'm not going. He won't believe it until Sat... lol. But I'm holding tight, I AM NOT GOING. I'm waiting for the next time they come around with what I hope will be a better setlist.

Stay strong Nicole!

No.  It doesn't help.  :D

The setlist bores me, but a concert with a mediocre setlist is still 100000000 times more fun than what I should be doing tomorrow night, which is reading out of a thermodynamics book.  And I honestly don't even know which part of the country I'll be in this summer so it's hard to convince myself to wait for the next show.  Grrrrr.

It was my second time seeing it, I walked down at night and it was so misty and foggy I hardly saw a thing, but then my group went the next day and it was awesome! I threw a penny into the falls! The current is so strong!!

Hopefully it warms up for you soon.

WDVD and WNIC are the two I listen to online.
(Especially WNIC around Christmas time. I'm probably the only person who likes Christmas music starting November 1st.)

Title: Re: ATTN: Name Change...Part II
Post by Shannon on Mar 26th, 2007, 11:48am
You are bizarre....O. I HATE Christmas music that early.

WDVD is the best Goo station. WNIC is good too. 93.1 and 93.9 also play Goo but not as often. Those are the two stations you might hear I'm Still Here on. And, 89X the Canadian/Detroit station plays the rocking  :rockin: Goo stuff. That's the only station I hear Big Machine on anymore. I actually wrote to WDVD a couple years ago requesting Big Machine and she said they took it off the playlist because it didn't "test" well. So that's the only Goo hit WDVD doesn't play.

Me too. I used to beg them to play it but the PM wouldn't add it. That's still one of my favorite songs.

That's why I like 89X. They play edgier rock/alternative anyway so Big Machine fits right in.

From what it said in my confirmation of "IM suicide", I can still access the forum there until the date that the renewal would have taken place. Can't say I will miss it much.

I almost violently attacked someone tonight.  I was sitting in the library doing my work and on the other side of the partition some dude is 'working', or surfing MySpace and calling everyone he knows...

The following one side of a conversation occurred on his cell phone over 3 phone calls with the same person.

"You need Paypal... Paypal... Paypal... I'll try Amazon... Amazon... Amazon... What's your password?... For Amazon (at this point I actually uttered "OH MY GOD" out loud)... Amazon... Amazon... How do I spell you name?... What?.."

So, I thought maybe this guy was calling his mom or dad to use their credit card and the parent was apparently deaf or really stupid.  But then, this guy doesn't know how to spell the name of whoever's credit card he's using?

I can't handle this.  I hate people.

Okay... a little lesson in urban myths.

I happen to have some peeps sitting in my kitchen.  So I read the ingredients.  The only thing that has animal product is the gelatin.  Gelatin comes from animal skin and tissue, NOT hooves.  Hooves are keratin, which is the same as your fingernails and not used for much of anything.  So yes, peeps are not vegetarian friendly, but they only have gelatin, which is found in most jellies, ice cream, yogurt, margarine, cream cheese, juice, vinegar,  and beer.

But I'd still eat a animal hoof if it tasted like a peep.



Title: Re: ATTN: Name Change...Part II
Post by nmf016 on Apr 9th, 2007, 3:07pm
And, gelatin is vital because it makes a nice colloidal gel which is pleasing to eat.  A marshmallow without gelatin would just be like eating a spoon of sugar (which you are, but in a more pleasing manner).

I was referring to the gelatin in peeps, when I mentioned hooves. Saying hooves usually has a more powerful impact than mentioning gelatin, lol.

When researching gelatin a while back, I found references that it was one of those ingredients that is sometimes made with skin and tissue, or bones, hooves and other assorted left-over parts, if you will. So, I believe it's like "olive loaf" they use whatever they have lying around.

There is even Kosher gelatin called "Parve" which some consider vegetarian because it has been boiled down so much that you can no longer determine what it originally was.

But I guess to me as long as I know it's not veggie, it doesn't matter if it's skin, tissue, bones, hooves or eyeballs, I'm not eating it...

gelatin:  animal protein substance having gel-forming properties, used primarily in food products and home cookery, also having various industrial uses. Derived from collagen, a protein found in animal skin and bone, it is extracted by boiling animal hides, skins, bones, and tissue after alkali or acid pretreatment. An easily digested, pure protein food, it is nutritionally�

I guess this is really bothers me.  A quick search of "hooves in gelatin" results in a lot of pages of people asking "Are there hooves in gelatin?", but no credible source saying that there are actually hooves used in gelatin.  Because there isn't any.  Judging by my Google search, I guess it's a common thing to say it to leave an impact, but all it results in is a bunch of misinformed people.

It's not actually made with the parts.  Like, there's not ground up bone in gelatin.  Boiling the skin, tendons, bones, whatever, just brings the collagen or gelatin out of those parts.  And it's not that whatever is lying around is used, it's just that those are the ONLY places to get it.  Wanting steak and getting scraps that are lying around is "olive loaf".  Pulling gelatin out of bone, etc, is the only option.  There's not a 'better' place to get it from.

Ok, I'm guilty of trying to make an impact by saying "hooves" instead of "gelatin" but I did think it was one of the things that gelatin was made from. I did think they just threw whatever was left of the animal into the gelatin pot.

I think this is semantics. If these parts are boiled and the gelatin/collagen rises to the top, to me that's the same as saying it's made from it.

And actually there is a plant based alternative to animal based gelatin called agar agar. It's made from seaweed.

This one creeps me out too. I believe it has to do with Kosher rules. It allows things with parve (sp?) to be served with dairy. But don't quote me on this, I know next to nothing about Kosher.

Although I feel people, animals and the planet in general would be better off if more people became vegetarians, I agree with you. I feel to each his/her own, do (eat) what is right for you.

Hey! The vegetarians need the veggie smilies!
What's going on around here?
Dancing chickens. Smilies gone wild.
I keep getting notifications for threads I've never even posted on or read.
Chaos I tell you.

Nothing a little agar agar won't fix, I'm sure.

Friday the 13th AND the original Goo Goo Dolls Day.  Seems very fitting, somehow.

Anyways, I hate when people announce their exit from a messageboard, but I'm gonna do it right now.  I'm sorry to do it here and tarnish the Name Change thread, but I don't want to start a new thread.

That said, I'm leaving the Goo internet world for a while.  I don't think I really need to say why.  I probably should have left a year ago, but some of the wonderful people here kept me coming back.  I just want to say 'thanks' to those people who have made this place a lot of fun.

I'll probably be back.  I better see Name Change thread pt. 3.  Until then, if you desperately need me for some reason, you can email me at my screen name @yahoo.com or IM me on AIM.  My name is listed in my profile.  Worse comes to worse, just PM me.

Bye for now.  :D

Oh, no! I hope you get better soon! Just drink lots of water to flush the sickness out of your system, rest, eat chicken noodle soup, but make sure you push the water, it's most important!! I hope you feel better soon!

I didn't really add it. It's a board feature that can be turned on or off. I just discovered it and noticed it was turned off.

As for the smileys. There is a special file for all of them that's directly hosted through the WOG main site. Those I can't add to because I don't have the ftp access to the site ... and MFC won't email me back with the info....grrrrr

That's a good read. Thanks for posting...back in March.

We've attributed it to a board curse or something ;)  It only seems to happen on long threads. But the first post at the top of the page doesn't show up until you post again. That's why on the second post you'll see "Caught in the Breakdown" or "QVC curse" posted. You have to make a second post for the first one to show up.

This thread is supposed to be confusing I believe. Nicole's intent on the original Name Change thread was to cause Mass Confusion.

I guess four songs from LLI is a big improvement from the eight or so they played during their winter tour.

I think they are still changing the set list for each show. My guess is this is a set list they are going to use for one or two shows.

Post by Pondering My Fate on Jun 7th, 2007, 8:33pm
My only two complaints are:
- Closing with Before It's Too Late?? Are they trying to bore the audience into leaving?

- A band that's been around for as long as these guys have really shouldn't be playing 3 cover songs at one show. I'd let Slave Girl slip by since the original song is so obscure, but GALB and AG are very recognizable, and playing them both is overkill. Pick one.

But it's still a way better setlist than anything else I've heard of on this tour. Kudos.

Oh yeah, remember that video I was trying to find last night?  This is why the new video director makes me very very nervous:

If I see any member of the band riding motorcycles around Transformers or wearing skintight unitards in the new video, it's officially OVER.

It's the same song... you're not missing anything. At first they called it "Fiction", but then they changed the title to "Before It's Too Late" for whatever reason, so people (and even the band) refer to it both ways.

If there's any transforming, it better be to this:

(Do you know how bummed I am that I didn't save that image without the cake and Drew stuff?)

But seriously, anything transforming or any Shania video similarity will make me cringe so hard there will be an earthquake.  And then my face will explode.

I'm willing to place bets it will just be like the Big Machine rooftop performance, maybe with some Shia/love interest clips.  And maybe an explosion or two.  And I'm totally okay with that.

let's try this again...

Fiction = Before it's Too Late.

There are two names for the same song.


The blue face will show up if you type either ??? or ?!?. So if you use less question marks, it won't show up. Alternately, you can click the little box on the reply page that says "Check this if you'll be adding code (or don't like smileys)." and you can use as many question marks as your heart desires. ;)

I'm laughing now because when you started out you signed up as John_Rzeznik and I asked you to change your name.

Well, all your posts were just completely ignorant. Like how could you know so little. But I tried to be patient. You sort of gave yourself away when you kept calling the song Fiction and asking about it. I might not have figured it out but you've made similar jokes as "Drew" so I tied it together. Then I checked the email address and part of it had Shade in it. That really got me suspicious. I'm glad you're retiring that account. The questions were starting to drive me batty :-* I think Pondering will be glad it's retired too. I could see her patience was getting thin....lol

I have to say I'm feeling very foolish for answering all those questions. DREW! I could smack you. The last set I answered I was gritting my teeth thinking Goofan had to be the stupidest person on earth! I was about done with my patience...lol

Haha there were actually many times I felt guilty when you all answered the questions, but overall it was hilarious. My personal favorites were when he/she/it started a favorite album thread while the tournament was going on, and a favorite song thread while that tournament was going on.

I had no idea how long I could keep it going...that's why I only used it every once in a while so people would sort of forget in between, but today I got a little greedy and posted one too many times.

The prank also fit perfectly in with the "Name Change" thread.

It started on Jan 1st because it was something like I said I could go a long time without posting or whatever, but I wanted to reply to stuff so I made a new name. I named it John Rzeznik, not even thinking of using it as a prank, and then I felt bad when Shannon made me change it and thought I was a different person. One of my first posts was making the avatar for Blessed By Goo (when my name was still John Rzeznik) and nmf figured it out right then because the avatar was hotlinked from my photobucket account.

When I changed the name to GooFan I decided I wanted to trick everyone into thinking it was a clueless Goo fan, so I made a couple stupid posts. In a chat shortly after that I think I revealed the secret to Nicole, Mike, and Lauren, then later nmf and I came up with some ideas to use with the name, but I forgot pretty much all of them. One of the ideas was to make the person completely ambiguous, creating a signature that sounded like a guy might have written it but an avatar that a girl might use.

Months later (about a month ago now) was when I did the first enslaught of noobish posts, then I did the second wave a couple days ago. It was critical that GooFan disregarded anything said after the first post, and didn't listen to anyone's responses. We had had something big planned to reveal it but I forgot what it was. I just hoped everyone would find it funny when it was discovered haha.

And this whole thing just made nmf believe more that I created Nicole aka The Purple O as a hoax too hahaha.

I hope I didn't anger/offend anyone. I just wanted it to be a big laugh for everyone in the end.


This post would have gotten a trophy if only Goofan had posted it instead.

PS: actually the best board moment of my day was when I hotlinked a picture of a cake in the black o's birthday thread and it said "HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIKE!" and whoever I hotlinked it from edited it so it was a picture of a cake that said "Don't hotlink!" and I thought that was the most amazing thing ever and I almost left it there purely for the awesome.

I thought the hotlink cake was pretty kind.  If I was setting up a filter to change the picture if it was hotlinked, the replacement photo would probably be vile.  Does that make me a jerk?

When I was a kid, we only had three flavors/colors in Trixx cereal: "raspberry-red, orange-orange and lemon-yellow". Classic.
And I never had Legos, just Tinker Toys and Lincoln Logs.

I hadn't seen them before last week.  Lauren, I've never seen the ones you really can stack.  Is that a Canadian thing?  Will I need to kidnap you and take you on a detour to find these Legos in August?  :D

Fruit Roll-Ups were awesome (aside from sticking to your teeth and such...).  Dunkaroos were rather disappointing to me, because there was never enough frosting for all of the cookies and you'd have to eat the leftover ones plain.

My friend and I took the day to explore Buffalo (I'm a suburbian and rarely go into the city) and we went to Forest Lawn, Delaware Park (sound familiar?), and then we took a long walk up and down Elmwood.  We passed the Elmwood Lounge, and I was amused by the HUGE poster of the Incredible Lance Diamond advertising his performances there.  Then, I look at the people sitting right below the poster, and there's Lance Diamond himself sitting right there on the patio.

It was from a Rockline radio show in 2000, I think?  Maybe 1999.  The interviewer is Bob Coburn and Mike is, you know, Mike.  Apparently, 2 years after DUTG came out, Mike hadn't gotten around to looking at the album.   :D

That's right! Poor me. The first time around I learned to backup my personal pictures. But I didn't think much about my music or band pictures. So this time around I lost all that stuff. Now I backup like crazy out of fear. I can't take another hit like that. Thanks to you all I have most of my Goo stuff back but I'm no where near getting my Keith Urban stuff back....it's depressing. So much good music ..... lost :'(

I do have to get back to visit the Falls soon.

I'm an obsessive backupper, which might actually be worse.  I have two computers and an external drive and have everything, like, twice.  Plus I burn everything.  But my organization skills suck.

Come back before passport mania starts.  Ugh.  I don't want to have to buy a $160 passport to go to dinner across the bridge.  I think everyone who lives closer to another country than another state should just be immune.  ::)

I just went downstairs on the PC,
What I did was
1. Pressed the Print screen button

I would, but I just got home from a 12 hour work day and I don't think I'd be very interesting...

And I am supposed to be packing for my road trip this weekend...

And I am supposed to be looking up fireworks locations for Monday...

And I could go on...

Okay, so I watched this Transformers video thingy.
I say watched, because when I heard the song start to play, I turned the speakers off and substituted the soundtrack with a bad sing-along of "The Reflex". ha. Someone slap me.
I did like Robby's jacket though.

I'm not digging Robby's jacket though.  Too My Chemical Romance for my liking.  Though I like to see him in something other than a tshirt.

True, but it's nice to see him looking a bit more spiffy.

I'm always attracted to those jackets when I'm shopping. Then I try one on, and think, "nah...too My Chemical Romance". And I put it back on the rack.

These are the only words I remember, and I'm not even sure if they're exactly right...It was a female singer, a kind of EuroTrash punky sound, and it was probably from the 80s... My husband is starting to think I made it up..LOL..


"Why won't you dance with me? I'm not no Limberger."

I need to know the band or a link with the song or some website with a big music catalog.

Post by the purple o on Jul 12th, 2007, 12:19pm
I went to the passport center in Portland yesterday and filled out all the paperwork to renew my passport. I paid the extra fees to expedite the process, and overnight it to Boston. With the expedited process I'm suppose to get it within two weeks, but things are really backed up at the Passport Agency right now and it could take as long as four weeks.
Within two weeks of my departure date (August 1st) I can go directly to Boston to reapply, but apparently it is nearly impossible to get an appointment.
The normal renewal wait time is 3 months or longer.

So now all I can do is wait, in a week or so I can check it's progress online. The person at the passport agency was optimistic that I would receive it in time.

I wish I would have realized this much earlier, my passport expired in January 2007.
It is good I did decide to check the date. If I had shown up on August 1st I would have been fucking screwed and stranded in Boston. Plus all the money I've spend for this trip would have be thrown out the window.  :-/

The whole suitcase thing may be a possibility. Though I'm going to Europe so it'll be a long flight. I've taken yoga classes and pilates classes, but I'm not nearly that flexible.

I believe you need a passport to cross the border if you are traveling by air. You won't need a passport for overland crossing until 2008.

When I saw it yesterday it made my day.  
There was also a bear with a t-shirt on, but it wasn't nearly as awesome as the lobster bear.

I took these pictures after eating a lobster roll and whoopie pie ice cream.

There were two wildlife sightings this week. I read in the paper that someone in my town had a bear in their yard the other day. Yesterday morning around 8:30 I was driving back from my cross country run and I saw a deer with two fawns near the road.

I'm always afraid that posters do nothing but anger the people behind you.  I'm especially afraid of this when we will be in such close proximity to Detroit.

I am really trying to avoid the HP leak.  But, I read a celeb gossip website and people just post the leaks all over it to be jerks so you're not even aware of what you're reading.  I suspect it'll get even worse come this weekend, as I definitely don't have enough time this weekend to read the whole thing.

What is the ending of the file?  Usually, you download torrents through a tracker and they're just normal files.  If they're music files they might be .flv files (I think) and then you need a converter or a .flv player.

And what?  I'm not allowed to enjoy fireworks beyond the Fourth of July?  :D  

Title: Re: ATTN: Name Change...Part II
Post by the red o on Jul 20th, 2007, 10:12pm
You don't have the actual files yet.  If you check the properties of the file you have, it should only be a few kb in size.

You need to download a BitTorrent client.  I use ABC.  Google "bittorrent client" and you'll get 100000000 choices.  After you download the client, double click on your .torrent file.  It should open in your client program and then the actual files will start to download and should list your status.  .Torrent files are just trackers to the actual file.

Title: Re: ATTN: Name Change...Part II
Post by the red o on Jul 20th, 2007, 11:13pm
If there is no one seeding the torrent, you could be waiting eternally.  If you got the torrent on some sort of torrent site, it should list seeders (uploaders) and leechers (downloaders).  If there are no seeders or leechers who have partially downloaded, the torrent is dead and you have to wait for someone to reseed.

If you got the torrent on a torrent site and there ARE other people on the torrent, try opening the .torrent file from that page instead of from your saved file and see if that makes things better.

No problemo.  It gets easier after the first time.  Be happy it only took 11 hours.  I once downloaded a huge bootleg concert video that took at least 10 days.  :-/  Just be careful what you're downloading.  I only download legal stuff, but torrents of illegal matieral can be traced.

There was no way I was going to touch it or squash it. I'm scared of spiders.

After seeing the spider and a toad that was bigger than my fist, I'm now scared to go outside.

What's the best spider squashing technique? Because it was on a plant so I couldn't step on it or squash it with a rock.


Yeah, I did take the picture.

Post by the red o on Jul 26th, 2007, 9:53pm
You need not squash it.  Screaming and flailing while dumping half a can of bug poison on it works just fine.

I went into an enclosed butterfly exhibit a week and a half ago and there were butterflies all around me.  I had to resist the urges to swat them away.  One the size of my hand flew right into the side of my head.

One really wicked way to kill a spider is to throw boiling hot water on it.
The spider curls up and drops dead.
Fun, yo.

Um, any way you can just leave the spider alone? I rarely ever kill bugs. Most of the time I just relocate them to outside  the house. And since this guy looks like he's already outside, why do you have to kill him?

Oh I love butterflies...We've had a great year for butterflies in NJ. I been seeing lots and lots of big, pretty ones. Looks like I'm in the minority on the bug front here...

On another bug note...
There has been a lack of bees and bumble bees this year, I don't miss them one bit.

Okay, but in all seriousness, what does the first one mean?  Isn't that some sort of play on the whole "God created man in his own form", but with man being replaced by dinosaur?  Because even to a non-Bible believing heathen such as myself that seems terribly wrong.

I used to yell at people who said I wanted to be a "dinosaur scientist"..."Nuh-uh! I wanna be a paleontologist! Get it right!" coming from a five year old is probably pretty funny....But I was dead serious about it. *haha*

Don't even start on the grammar.  If you knew the city I live in you would be surprised all of the letters even faced in the correct direction.  But I'm relieved to know no one sees any meaning in the yellow sign beyond "God is a dinosaur".

Carl Gellert
Famous For: Being the boy on the cover of the Goo Goo Dolls' 1995 LP, A Boy Named Goo

The picture of a 2-year-old Carl Gellert � with dirt smeared across the lower half of his face � that serves as the cover imagery for the Goo Goo Dolls' breakthrough release wasn't actually commissioned by the band's label, Warner Bros., for the disc. It was a photo his father, Vance, a professional photographer, had taken of him for a book he later published called "Carlvision."

"At the time the album came out, I was just going into seventh grade, so I was 12 or something like that," Gellert remembered. "I don't really know how it happened. I think somehow my dad knew the band's publicist, and the Goo Goo Dolls discovered the book, and they really liked the one picture so they went with it."

Carl's dad was paid $6,000 for use of the image that helped earn Gellert, now 24, the nickname "Goo" � one that's stuck with him throughout his entire adult life.

"I was actually going into a new school that year, and pretty much instantly earned the name 'Goo' before I even started school," he said. "At first, it was kind of lame, and I didn't like people calling me Goo. But by the end of that year, I had pretty much embraced it, and my friends still call me Goo."

Like Ferrara, Gellert's not what you could call a Goo Goo Dolls fan ("I didn't dislike the album, I just wasn't a fan at all"). But his residence hall director in college was maybe a little obsessed.

"He had the poster up in his room, and had me autograph things," Gellert said. "He'd pester me almost every day about it.

Carl Gellert
Famous For: Being the boy on the cover of the Goo Goo Dolls' 1995 LP, A Boy Named Goo

The picture of a 2-year-old Carl Gellert � with dirt smeared across the lower half of his face � that serves as the cover imagery for the Goo Goo Dolls' breakthrough release wasn't actually commissioned by the band's label, Warner Bros., for the disc. It was a photo his father, Vance, a professional photographer, had taken of him for a book he later published called "Carlvision."

"At the time the album came out, I was just going into seventh grade, so I was 12 or something like that," Gellert remembered. "I don't really know how it happened. I think somehow my dad knew the band's publicist, and the Goo Goo Dolls discovered the book, and they really liked the one picture so they went with it."

Carl's dad was paid $6,000 for use of the image that helped earn Gellert, now 24, the nickname "Goo" � one that's stuck with him throughout his entire adult life.

"I was actually going into a new school that year, and pretty much instantly earned the name 'Goo' before I even started school," he said. "At first, it was kind of lame, and I didn't like people calling me Goo. But by the end of that year, I had pretty much embraced it, and my friends still call me Goo."

Like Ferrara, Gellert's not what you could call a Goo Goo Dolls fan ("I didn't dislike the album, I just wasn't a fan at all"). But his residence hall director in college was maybe a little obsessed.

"He had the poster up in his room, and had me autograph things," Gellert said. "He'd pester me almost every day about it. When he found out they were coming to town to play, he'd ask if I could get him free tickets, or get him backstage and meet the band. But in my apartment, there's no Goo Goo Dolls paraphernalia. The album is hanging up in my parents' houses, and I had it hanging up for a while. But I can't stand having it up any more. I have seen that picture way too much."

A slow chat of complete random nothingness. In fact, the more random the better. Feel free to post anything random you find in here. And, every now and again we'll talk about the Goos just to keep it in the main section ;)

Let me start with a random question then. and it's about the goo's!
Say I found an original LP of the first release (red cover) and it's even a mercenary release, how much is it worth and how much should I pay for it, maximum?

Title: Re: ATTN: Name Change...Part II

You guys are awesomely helpful.  :D


But seriously, I have seen the LP go for as little as $15 and up to about $40 on ebay.  There isn't a huge demand just because people don't have players.  Maximum is relative, seeing as I don't know your financial status.  I would say $60 tops if you really really want it, but I think you can get it cheaper if you're patient.

Title: Re: ATTN: Name Change...Part II
Post by Pondering My Fate on Aug 16th, 2007, 9:46pm
Haha, yeah. In all seriousness... I got mine for $25ish off a website a couple of years ago. Unfortunately I can't remember the name of the site, but I've posted it on here before.

Funny that it goes for such a low(ish) price with it being a relatively rare item though. I'd be curious how many copies were made; it can't be a whole hell of a lot.

V Festival stuff:

Goos are on stage in Hyland Park Sunday from 1:25 to 2:05 UK time, which is 8:25am to 9:05am EST.

Why does this matter?  Virgin Radio will live at the festival.  There is a schedule below so you can try to catch it while they're performing or maybe during the recap time.

http://www.virginradio.co.uk/music/festivals/v_festival/on-air.html

SUNDAY.  Not Saturday.  And you know... if stuff happens and you want to, you know, record it for me, who will be sleeping in a cushy hotel in Toronto with no computer, you'd probably be my hero of the day.  :D

And best of luck to anyone who listens in.  Hopefully there will be no techno this time.

Thanks for the answers, I bid 15 euros (about $22) for now but I might go a little higher. I saw the album on sale for $150 at some website, outragious price. :P

I read today that of the first album, 8000 copies where made but no idea of they mean cds, LPs or both.

About the V festival broadcast, I just bought a new pc this week so I don't have all my software installed yet, but if I manage to get the right software running before tomorrow mid day (i'm english time +1), I'll try and record the show.
Unfortunatly I don't have satelite tv so it will be web quality. :-/

2 types of lions!
2 types of tigers!
1 type of bear

We could have seen the grizzly bear to make 2 types, but it's in the 'Canada' exhibit, which is waaaaaay out there and on a steep hill.  We walked down the one half and considered going down the branch with the grizzly, but we had a huge hill to go up, we were hot, and we had to meet our group for lunch.  The tree kangaroo looks a lot like a little bear with a long tail, so we can pretend that counts.  :D

Goo mention: The kangaroos and emus share a pen.  It made me think of those pictures of John and Robby feeding the kangaroos and emus in Australia, which I absolutely love.
