Hmmm... okay... here's what I hear: ...left undone... countless songs left unsung... our hearts desire... [HUGE JAM] ...any ships ? shore... faceless ? living for the cure... trying... ships all sail away...

Got a couple I'm trying to figure out. I've indicated parts of the lyrics: 09. "...left undone... countless songs left unsung..." "...ships all sail away..." 11. "...comes fast over those hills." "...go down and down again." "hard to say when it's time to go, staring at the hill from down below." 14. "I'll never come back, I'll never come down again." Any ideas?

Wow, this kid can play the guitar. Beautiful. Love to see it. Makes me want to go upstairs into the attic and crank the amp.

Why the police? The screamo metal incite riots? I'll definitely give the guitarist a listen. I'm queueing it up right now.

AWESOME!!! Would love to see RG play; it's been far too long.

It's $45 a ticket right? Holy crap that's a lot of money for a show at the warehouse.

The Slip show in Montréal was cancelled. I belive that is what Bouche is referring to. [color:blue]The Caution Jam show is a go!!!

Health Canada warns of hallucinations among Tamiflu users [color:gray]Last Updated: Wednesday, November 29, 2006 | 3:54 PM ET The antiviral drug Tamiflu has been linked with reports of hallucinations and abnormal behaviour, Health Canada said Wednesday. Earlier this month, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said doctors and parents should watch for signs of bizarre behaviour in children taking Tamiflu, after cases were reported overseas. The reports include children and teenagers, mainly from Japan, Health Canada said in its warning. Although the connection between the drug has not been proven in these cases, high fever or other complications of the flu can affect the mental state and lead to abnormal behaviour, the department said. As of Nov. 11, there have been seven cases of psychiatric side-effects linked to Tamiflu in Canada, all in elderly patients. There have also been 84 reports of side-effects occurring in Canadians taking the medication, including 10 deaths. Health Canada has asked the maker of Tamiflu, Hoffman-La Roche, to update the Canadian prescribing information for the drug. The department said it will continue to monitor the safety of Tamiflu and update the alert if needed. Canadians who are taking Tamiflu and have questions or concerns should check with their doctor.

You do eh? I think I'll give that one a shot. Speakin' of which, Lorraine and I were hoping to run into you at the West Town last night. Mmmmmmm... Creemore.

Have you ever seen the way NewRider parties like a mother-fucker to Caution Jam?? I really wouldn't want to put a razor-blade in his hand at that time.

Unfortunately the rockies are 'vibe-proof'. In fact that was the original reason behind their implementation: To stop the flow of 'vibes' from the Cascadia area into the rest of the continent. The thinking at the time was that this would lead to a dillution in the 'vibes' that everyone living in the Cascadia area were swimming around in. This notion has since been dismissed but the cost justification for tearing down the rockies can not be made and thus they still stand AND stop the flow of 'vibes' from west to east. Sorry. I'm sure Steve knows you support his desire to be promoted though.

These contests are rigged. I never win anything because booche hates me. Piss.

Shavin' your shoulders or partying like a mother-fucker to Caution Jam?!?!

I really hope so my friend. Unfortunately that's a tough time of year on account of the various holiday parties taking place. I think I might have one that night. If not, I'll be there for sure!

Small doses of ecstasy can cause brain damage, scans suggest [color:gray]Last Updated: Tuesday, November 28, 2006 | 1:25 PM ET [color:gray]CBC News Taking small amounts of the club drug ecstasy can harm the brain, even after just one use, brain scans show. Researchers from the Netherlands looked for subtle brain cell damage in first time users of ecstasy — an illegal drug that acts as a stimulant and psychedelic. "We found a decrease in blood circulation in some areas of the brain in young adults who just started to use ecstasy," said Dr. Maartje de Win of the University of Amsterdam. The results of the new study were presented Monday at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America in Chicago. "In addition, we found a relative decrease in verbal memory performance in ecstasy users compared to non-users." De Win's team used brain imaging techniques to study 59 young adults who used ecstasy for the first time, and 59 non-users. People who took the drug used six tablets on average. After 18 months, those who took low doses of ecstasy showed no severe damage to neurons or mood. Unknown if effects permanent But there was evidence of changes in the structure of brain cells as well as decreased blood flow to certain regions of the brain. Users of ecstasy, also called MDMA (methylenedioxymethamphetamine) had trouble performing some memory tests. Heavy use of ecstasy and long-term use are known to damage neurons and cause depression, anxiety, confusion, trouble sleeping and memory problems, but until now, researchers hadn't examined the side-effects of low doses in first-time users. "We do not know if these effects are transient or permanent," de Win said. "Therefore, we cannot conclude that ecstasy, even in small doses, is safe for the brain, and people should be informed of this risk." Small doses of ecstasy may be prescribed for people who need psychotherapy, but the results suggest the practice should be discouraged, the researchers concluded.

Isn't that December 9th?

What I find really interesting are the various 'situations' that arise and their 'virtual' solutions. A few examples are all the people making REAL money through their Second Life characters and then little social things like the guy that was buying slivers of land and erecting* huge billboards next to people with beautiful spaces and awesome views. There was also the woman who was being bullied by a bunch of teens and was rescued by a vigilante crew that responded to her distress call. However, I agree with you. I don't really get the level of fascination. * Hehehehehe... I said "erecting."

Hmmmm... not sure what you mean. I hear a '2001-esque' opening jam punctuated by a lot of 'swells' on the keyboards. Definitely a great performance of the song.

It seems that sitting up straight, something many of us are taught from a very early age, is not good for your back, say researchers from Scotland and Canada. They found that sitting up straight strains your back unnecessarily. Ideally, you should lean slightly back, at an angle of about 135 degrees, they say.

Technically you could 'play' a show back while you have your video card hooked to the outputs on the PVR and re-record the show. As far as just being able to copy the files off the HDD and redistribute or archive them, I believe they have specifically designed the device to prevent that. I use a Windows Media Centre PC to accomplish the same thing and it keeps things in nice files that I can move around or watch on other machines with the correct CODECs installed. Unfortunately it doesn't access my 'digital' cable without a kludgy 'USB based IR transmitter stuck to the IR receiver' solution that just isn't practical in my setup. I do however, expect to see video cards that are capable or reveiving digital and HD signals in the near future. The 'media centre' functionality is going to be included with some, if not all, versions of Vista from what I understand.

Why? You guys just part-timers now?

Bahahahahahah!! Beautiful. That's absolutely beautiful!
