    <div class="quote_poster">Voodoo Child Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Dude, I'm going to college on Friday, and I can't d/l music there, so I've been filling up my new iPod. I've got 6,000+ songs so far, and 3,500+ songs were downloaded 100% "illegally" off of limewire and only about 2,500+ bought so far. Why pay for music when you can use a p2p like that?</div>

    I know what you're sayin. The majority of my music is downloaded too, I actually rarely buy CD's, the only time I get them is if it's a CD like Stadium Arcadium or the Sublime CD I got. I'm just saying that if the music companies want us to buy music then the music should be good quality, not scratching and sh**.

    My friend recommended me something called uTorrent. He said it's really good, I'll have to check it out.

    Utorrent is the downloader. You get anything like utorrent, bitcomet, or BitTorrent. The torrents themselves are actually on sites.

    I'm sitting here ripping all my cd's onto the iPod now, and I'd say it's about a 50/50 split between bands that I like supporting (ie: RHCP/Frusciante, Pearl Jam, etc.) and bands I just couldn't find online (ie: Strawberry Alarm Clock, Venus, etc.).

    If I'm not extremely loyal to a band and can find their music online though, I'll go that route 99% of the time (the 1% being when I get gift cards from relatives and just don't know wtf to do with them so I wind up buying some random cd... gift cards are such a cop out).

    Sly & the Family Stone is an underrated band. I feel as if their legacy is lost because they weren't that big in the white community and the modern day black community listens mostly to hip-hop/r&b. I guess their target market these days is the 35+ year old black demographic, which is pretty narrow. It's a shame too, because their music was beautiful and really transcends genres. All my friends love their stuff when I play them, regardless of what kind of tastes they have.

    Bill Walton dissed your boy VC, he thinks Michael Redd is the best shooter on our olympic team. Heh.

    Edit- Damn he's already made 3-4 three pointers in the first quarter.

    Damn, is there a game on? I couldn't find the one that was scheduled to be played on ESPN2 earlier today. They opted for little league baseball instead. [​IMG]

    Anyway, I think Miller's a better shooter than Redd, but either way, you're talking about two of the game's elite gunners. If it came down to which one I'd rather have on the team, it'd be a real toss-up, but I would personally take Miller because he's more versatile, he's bigger, and he's never had any injury problems.

    Redd's also used to being the offensive focal point. I mean, he's a guy who takes just under 20 shots a game. Miller can be really effective even when he's only taking five or six attempts a night, because he can do a little bit of everything. And yet he still has the same shooting ability that Redd has to keep the defenses honest and keep them from coming out with zones, like you said earlier.

    I see exactly what you mean VC. BTW, the game is being shown right now on ESPN Classic.

    For you guys downloading: the safest way to download is through torrents and DC++. With torrents you can go to "legit" sites, which are guaranteed to have clean files. With DC++, you can look through someones shared stuff and see what he's got, and you can try to search for clones of a file by clicking on the file and pressing a button for that. That way you can see if the other files you find has the same name or not (and if not, it's probably something fishy going on).

    Well, one of my sisters friends died earlier this week, apparent drug overdose. There was a thing on the news about a 17 year old girl passing away after an ecstasy overdose on a fishing trip, so my parents and I are thinking that was her.

    Although she apparentley took several pills, which of course is just careless, stupid and irresponsible.

    MrJ, that reminds me, I still need to watch that game, lol, I downloaded it months ago in torrent form, but have completley forgot about it until now.

    That's it! That's ******* it! Sometimes I feel like I'm done with living here. A few nights ago I'm nearly killed by lightning. Two nights ago we have a blackout all night. Yesterday we lost power around 3:30pm and the tornado sirens were blaring from numerous micro-bursts in the area, some of which were just over my goddamn house! Then when you think it is all over and ComEd can come out and repair the damaged, oh no .. No no no.

    Our stove doesn't work, so we decide to go out to Quizno's. Driving down towards Joliet (the place where Prison Break is filmed for those of you that have no idea where that is) and I see wall clouds just popping up within seconds of each other and then the sirens go off again, people are in the street leaving their vehicles behind we turn around through a Walgreens and speed back home to get to our neighbor who has a basement. Half way home you can see tornadoes touching down in the distance far, far away, several of them, scared out of my damn mind!

    Does it stop there? No, it doesn't. The sky turns neon green and then turqoise over our heads as we flood into our neighbor's basement as the sirens go blaring in our town. Thankfully our neighbor has a generator so that we had some light in his basement, but then what? Oh no, all that rain is flooding the poor guy's basement, so while the storm is raging outside he's upstairs with me using a pump to get the goddamn water out and away from his basement windows and air conditioner.

    The storm lasted until 6am this morning and though we went home and had minor damaged this poor guy had to stay up all night and watch over his house in case of flooding or pump damages. The Chicagoland suburbs are under state of emergency with more then 300,000 people without power still and the Northside suburb towns are almost completely under water like over in Ohio and Oklahoma. Poor people.

    This weather is ****** and I seriously can't take this anymore. I have a job interview at 4pm over at Sports Authority and guess what? Violent storms later tonight, so isn't that just pleasent? Hail the size of golf balls predicted and the reason I'm online is because I'm at the library to get out of my humid house and Email my fianc?e who was likely worried sick about me. I'm not the one to complain usually, so don't get me wrong here, but come on now. This is rediculous. Crap, I wanted to write the second day of Euroleague basketball with Kobimel and the sirens go off. Wonderful.

    Anyway I'm out, have a blast.

    That's terrible man, no luck at all. Weather can really have a disastrous effect on life sometimes. Good thing you're OK, though, that's the most important thing.

    As for the Euroleague preview, I think everyone here will understand if it gets delayed until the weather straightens out over there.

    Ahh, it was horrible yesterday in the Chicago Suburbs too. We had to stay late at school because of the tornado warnings, trees falling everywhere, it's a mess. And school was canceled today because no electricity. I still don't have any electricity at home, every since yesterday noon. (At my cousins right now). Hopefully it doesn't take much longer, but I doubt it comes back soon.

    Now Suzy Skrew had a partna named Sasha (Sasha), Thumper (Thumper)
    I remember her number like the summer
    when her and Suzy yeah they threw a slumber - - party
    but you can not call it that cause it was slummer
    Well it was more like spend the night
    Three in the morning yawnin dancin under street lights
    We chillin like a villain and a ***** feelin right
    in the middle of the ghetto on the curb, but in spite
    all of the bullshit we on our back starin at the stars above
    (aww man) Talkin bout what we gonna be when we grow up
    I said what you wanna be, she said, "Alive" (hmm)
    It made me think for a minute, then looked in her eyes

    I coulda died, time went on, I got grown
    Rhyme got strong, mind got blown, I came back home
    to find lil Sasha was gone
    Her mamma said she with a ***** that be treatin her wrong
    I kept on singin my song and hopin at a show
    that I would one day see her standin in the front row
    But two weeks later she got found in the back of a school
    With a needle in her arm, baby two months due, Sasha Thumper
