I know very little about some of the people on my friends' list. Some people I know relatively well. Some of you I hardly know at all. Perhaps you lurk, for whatever reason. But you friended me and I thank you.

But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so...she likes spinach."

I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. Yes, even you people who I know really well. Then post this in your own journal, if you feel like it.

I own They Might Be Giants's album "Apollo 18". (Actually I own almost all their albums.)

The song "Fingertips" actually consists of 20+ very short tracks with no gaps between them.

One time, in college, I set it to play the track "What's that blue thing doing here?" and put it on repeat-single-track. Then my roommate and I left the room for several hours, subjecting our neighbors to endless repetitions of that inane question.

...Thus recreating one of the major benefits of vinyl over CD. I like it! =:o}

How so? It's much easier to repeat a track on most/all of my CD players than on my record player.

I was referring to the "useful ability" to get stuck in the groove. =;o}

Oh, got it. I believe you've got a tad more vinyl experience than I.

You're evil.

When the Titanic xoundtrack was being overplayed in my college dorm, I would retaliate with NKOTB.
