@achewood I am composing a tone poem about eagles, lawnmowers, and Ted Nugent. It is composed only of the sounds of those things.

I dunno, but now I've got "Whistling in the Dark" running through my head.

Fuck.

My favorite ringtone was the one my ex had set on her phone which was ahhhnold counting reps (I assume it was from an old workout tape?) over "Don't Stop Believing."

Oh man, this shit's compelling. The counting starts at about :37 in. Haven't listened to the other ones yet.

Oh wow I can't believe you found that. It was actually a ringtone that you ncould buy from the verizon store. I kind of wondered how the royalty structure for that one worked.

I have a couple very long-term earworms that I unconsciously start humming now and then. Have done for years:


1) Quantum Leap Theme.

2) I am the Resurrection Guitar Solo.

WHY????!

ALL of it?!

My current ringtone: Deep in the Sand by Budos Band (instrumental funk played by white boys)

My all time earworm: Another One Bites the Dust by Queen. My ex and I would just tap three time and this song would instantly get stuck in the other person's head.

Computer science uses electric machines (computers for example). A computer scientist will need math, science, and know-how to make and use computers.

I've probably listened to St. Vincent's The Strangers forty times in the last two days. I even dreamed of it.

Ahh, yeah. That one went right over my head.

When I lived in Colorado and had a hellish commute, I was listening to cds to try to learn Morse (I have a ham radio license too). I didn't put in the time consistently to learn it, though. Yet I could only recognize a few of the letters Ash typed, so I had to use the converter anyway.

I really liked that one too. Not as much as The Party from the same album. I don't much care for the rest of it.
