  1. I bring buckets of sand from Mars and keep dumping them in the ocean until they build up enough to make a hill. Sadly, my actions raise the global water level, completely submerging many coastal cities along with your insignificant desert island... but at least I've got my hill.
  2. I had the opposite experience. I liked it ok at first, but the more I listened to it the less I enjoyed it. I haven't put that one on in years. It probably gets about as much play as Adrenaline. They're a lot more focused now.
  3. A topic the discussion of which I imagine we should all be the better for encouraging ourselves to eschew.
  4. I hope you have a great time! Despite the fact that our weather is doing weird shit right now... may you have a safe voyage, clement skies, etc.
  5. See, Iceni? It's all a matter of priorities. For some it's French class; for others, Pokemon. This is that classic, underachieving continental European mentality we hear so much about. I bet you repair your own clothing, as well...
  6. You're missing out, good sushi is one of the best meals ever.
  7. Isis - Panopticon good rainy day music
  8. Mitochondrion - Parasignosis FLAC download from Bandcamp!
  9. Re: Whatcha Eatin'? Is it really? It wouldn't surprise me. I'm constantly amazed by the number of restaurants everywhere I go. And they're all specialized in some way, which was weird for me to get used to at first; Vietnamese, Ethiopian, southern American style chicken and biscuits, pizza, middle eastern food. Where I grew up, most restaurants served lots of different stuff and culturally specific cuisine was the exception rather than the norm.
  10. I just hate hot weather anyway. It's always humid when it's hot here and I feel like I'm getting baked alive.
  11. Wow, it's hard for me to think of something you can't find in NYC - so much different Asian, South American, African, European, and regional American food. I had an awesome burrito last night with pork, radishes, cheese, beans, potatoes, and salsa verde.
  12. Thickhëad and Æpefæce have announced their collaboration on a new book, to be entitled "Of Course It Matters: a densely verbose and torturously exhaustive multi-theoretical disquisition on the origins of nearly everything, from several opposing viewpoints". Steven King raves, "brutally thorough! Makes The Stand look like a letter to Reader's Digest!" "It'll suck you in," gushes Stephen Hawking. "You might need a diaper change after this one." One thing's for sure: once you start, you won't be able to put it down!
  13. Thanks buddy. You're cool too.
  14. Yes, I'd heartily recommend shooting any of those wanky lead players.
  15. Re: Mosh pit - help!! Wouldn't really recommend a black metal show for moshpit research, in any case.
  16. I admit that I've enjoyed many of our little chats.
  17. Re: What Are You Listening To? Been meaning to check that one out, I love the new one.
