strike up conversations with strangers. find something you both have in common. it could be anything at the moment. waiting in line, the weather, anything.
i had a number of friends in high school who had transferred out here to atlanta from high school.
all they could talk about was how awesome california was and they couldn't wait to get back there.
it seems to be (from my anecdotal evidence) that natives of california are the only ones who seem to feel that there is no civilized life outside of california.
is there any end in sight to this gross manipulation?
sadly, i think not. as an indpendent musician, this makes me sick. at the same time, there is still college radio and shows at which to whore out my musical wares.
indeed. shoutcast offers a wealth of links to all sorts of good music.
it kills me to see it go away. nothing short of continuous infusions of capital will keep it afloat. but that's really the issue, though. the major labels have the most to benefit from killing off independent music outlets -- and they will continue to do so.
and they will. i know that the first production car that chinese automakers made was not even remotely safe.
furthermore, we can expect more from china manipulating currency values, using prison labor, etc. to give themselves an advantage.
they're already doing it now, and it will get worse before it gets better.

Hours of fun we had with that. Remember that weird parrot with the lightspeed-moving beak?
i've seen that, too.
at the same time, most of the NYC ex-pats seem to be glad to have left (usually because of the cold winters)

our votes don't really count under the farce that is the electoral college.
but they're rarely on the ballot.
they'll get away with it because they're fighting piracy and by extension something "for the children".

more likely what will happen...
that would be awesome. but it totally won't happen.
they don't have to try, they'll try to get your government to do it for them.
MORE POWER!
glad you appreciate good humor.
you will kill the prime minister of Malaysia!
it's amazing that they haven't gone after college radio.
i'm big fan of BlueMars' (www.bluemars.org) Cryosleep...
SomaFM is pretty cool, though
right, for the same reason that the RIAA is trying to expand US copyright law and its control thereof beyond US borders.
nice.

that's a good point. i think that if pandora went indie-only, or at least non-RIAA, they could tell the RIAA to take a hike.
