To Do This
1 - Go to "wikipedia." Hit “random”
or click here
The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to "Random quotations"
or click here
The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

3 - Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”
or click here
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use photoshop or similar to put it all together.

In case

head58 ever comes back to LJ.

Mostly I want to see if the results make any sense at all.

( Music-ish )

Since a bunch of people posted this, I'll give it a shot as well

If you saw me in a police car, what would you think I got arrested for?

Maybe not the best way to do it, but the only way I could figure it with LJ's poll thing. Perhaps for the next phase someone could suggest another way to do polls? I had tried to put each vote after each matchup, but had to put them all at the end.

( Vote behind the screen )

You can vote through Monday, the next round will go up Tuesday.

Current Mood: pleased

Hey,

mgrasso, what did you use to post the iPod wars you used to do?

head58 said he really liked the way they looked when you did them and I'd like to use a tried and true method.

I'm having trouble getting the poll to show properly. I may have to postpone until Monday.

I've got 19 people ready to play. I'd like to get 1 more. I'm going to give people 'till noon and then I'm going to post the first round.
If I end up with an odd number, the last person selected randomly gets a bye.
Unless there's a better way to do it and someone tells me what it is.

Edit Got it, thanks everyone!

I don't normally repost, but I'd like those of you who only check late in the day or further west or both to see this and join in!

I never got to participate in one o' them there iPod Wars the kids these days were so fond of a few years ago. I would like to host one.

The way I understand it works:

I screen the comments to this post
You put your iPod, computer, MP3 player on shuffle and note the first 10 songs (and artists) that play)
Comment here with those 10 songs
Tomorrow I post head to head matchups between people who commented (matchups determined randomly) and you all vote on which (anonymous) list is better.
Winners will be announced Monday
Winners get to submit a new list on Monday and the process repeats until there is only 1 Winner

Did I get it right? Is that how it works?

I'd like as many people to participate as possible.

Current Mood: hopeful

1 minute, 25 seconds

A)Got to http://www.musicoutfitters.com/
B) Enter the year you graduated from high school in the search function and get the list of 100 most popular songs of that year
C) Bold the songs you like, strike through the ones you hate and underline and/or italicize your favorite. Do nothing to the ones you don’t remember (or don’t care about)

( Wait, where are all the songs I listened to... oh, right... )
Since I didn't graduate High School, I picked songs from the year I would have graduated.

Edit: I looked up 1985 (my last year in HS) and 1982 (The year I started HS) and the songs were SO much better. Hell, the Safety Dance came out in 1982!
Ah well.

Current Mood: amused

( disgusting, yummy or both? )

--This assumes under normal conditions. If I'm starving to death, I'd likely be more open.

I understand she likes this sort of thing

Because I can't keep track of my own thoughts,

chaoticmoth reminded me that I never posted the answer to the "2 truths and a lie" thing I stole from him.

Anyway, here is the answer. Falsehood is in red.

I once had 2000 lbs of steel fall on my legs and I walked away with nothing more than bruises

My grandmother was Joan of Arc

I got out of a speeding ticket by giving the officer donuts

I was working as a temp at a company that provided supplies and componants to the companies that made military jets. My manager asked me to restack some steel that had had one end slide off the stack below it and rest on the floor. Each stack was 2,000 lbs and I couldn't simply lift it, so I took a steel bar and levered it up. Since I had my back to it and was using my legs to assist in providing leverage, they were caught under the steel when the level I was using bent suddenly.
I managed to step out from under the steel after it had come to rest on my legs and it clanged on the floor behind me. They sent me to the nurse and were quite surprised I was only bruised.

My grandmother was of French Canadian descent. While she used the name Jeanne, her given name was Jeanne d'Arc Gertrude Frappier. She'd be very upset about my telling people her middle name.

The donuts were on the seat next to me and he kept glancing over at them, but I never offered him one. Somehow I didn't get a ticket either.

Current Mood: amused

I don't normally do the meme thing and I'm going to cheat with this one. See if you spot the cheat.

Leave a comment and I will:
a) Tell you why I friended you.
b) Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a colour, a photo, etc.
c) Tell you something I like about you.
d) Tell you a memory I have of you.
e) Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
f) Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.

Since some people say I repeat my stories over and over, this shouldn't be a problem for anyone. Unless you weren't listening...
