  1. What websites do you people visit religiously every day (besides this one)? The only one I go to everyday is CBC.ca. I visit many different sites every few days, but I'm looking for something new whether it is informative (i.e news/current events) or just plain entertaining.

    Any cool sites would be appreciated.

  2. leaving the real men to party

    [color:"purple"]now i have to agree here. how else to judge the calibre of a real man, than by how many days he can manage to stay awake, how many beers he can drink, or how many chemicals he manages to ingest without killing himself... [color:"black"] :P

    I agree. How many people drink more than they want or are kept up because of peer pressure? I try to be sleeping by 10:00pm everynight ;)

  3. hamilton and I were boozing heavily together recently, talking about all of you and solving the world's problems, when the subject of the Mighty Q came up. We both agreed it's not a bad station but it's format suffers from one very serious problem: extremely unimaginative programming. The "classic rock" format is what it is, fine, whatever, but the bands they play - let's just take the Rolling Stones and Pink Floyd for examples - have huge deep catalogues that never make it on the air. You'd think Pink Floyd had about five songs in their entire body of work, based on what Q plays. Have you ever heard their classic, "Money"? No?? Well, tune your dial to 107.1 and wait fifteen minutes, it's the one that has the sounds of coins and registers at the beginning. And, I really never need to hear "Sympathy For The Devil" or "You Can't Always Get What You Want" ever again. They could so easily keep to their basic format but make a left hand turn into some of this catalogue material, and become slightly more progressive in doing so. Even "Psychedelic Sunday" suffers from this same songs week in, week out.

    "Q107 - all obscure dub reggae, all the time!"

    As long as they keep "Little Steven's Underground Garage", I'm happy. To be honest, it's all I regularly tune to Q107 for anyway.

    Are you telling me that Pink Floyd has more than 5 songs? ;)
