Ya Gotta Believe!
July 27, 2006
Knew I shouldn't have opened that box
 

Am I the last one to find Pandora? It's a music genome project and it completely, well, rocks. Pardon the bad pun.

I am hopelessly and completely addicted and I blame Dr. Crazy. I read about it over there, doubted that anything could work so well, and bang! an addiction is born.

The fun part is while it is playing in the background,you wonder, "Hmmm. Who is that? I really like that song." Then you casually change windows so you can see who it is you're listening to and gasp in disbelief as it is someone you swore you would never listen to. Nope, no way. That's for those other people. You know...them.

But then again, you don't change the song. You just do a little discreet listening. Who's gonna find out and it really is a good song. It's like crack I tell ya.

Speaking of music--my music degree is apparently a waste since I have spent the entire afternoon getting my ass kicked by a 9 yr old at guitar hero.

A semi-annual cashing in of spare change provided the boys with two new PS2 games, a second guitar for head-to-head competition, and a hamster ('cause we needed another pet).

Ok, back to playing with Pandora. If you haven't been there go and take a look. It's amazing.

on edit: Other valuable lesson learned. Don't let Sparky make music station on Pandora....yowch!
