yes, the head-fi nerds.

Why can't the Bush library just be located here?

I'm sure the locals would be thrilled!

[20], I was thinking coloring books.

The A goes to Queens. Ask anyone who lives in South Ozone Pk., Howard Beach or the Rockaways.

(And if you were being sarcastic, forgive me as I have just started my first cup of coffee for the AM!)

it makes me laugh over coffee to read the rants of people with no lives...

are you trying to discredit downloading as a "green" activity because you'll eventually have to throw away a hard drive when it crashes? that's insane.

i'm going to assume you're not though, and tell you that yes, i've had many hard drives fail on me, but i usually find that having two hard drives with your full music library on them is almost 100% safe.

as a matter of fact, about every month i'll back up my entire computer onto a hard drive that sits in a drawer.

and why are people freaking out about a new ipod, you ask? because this one might be the touch screen, which would be the most exciting ipod release since the first generation.

#19...before making elitist comments about other people's intelligence and schooling choices, you might want to use spell-check. Your errors make You look like the ass, and who the hell is shirley?!

great photo, really.

um, bush isn't in AA. if he were, and were applying things he would be advised to apply, we wouldn't be where we are today as a nation. maybe there's a "study bible for dry drunk emperors" (my compliments to TVOTR) out there somewhere.

i was thinking the same thing--how do you build a library for an illiterate? it's like a symphony hall and museum in honor of a helen keller (no offense to the hearing- or visually-challenged, just an analogy).

umm....the rally in the markets had nothing to do with new ipods.

I'm sorry but I'll say this again: what are they going to have at the Bush LIBRARY? AA inspirational word-a-day calendars and Bibles?

Whether they're legally in the clear or not, it's not a pleasant way to start off your freshman year in college with this extra burden. But then again, one of them is going to U Delaware and the other to some provincial college in PA? Well, it just goes to show what a pair of numbnuts these guys are, and could shirley use a swift kick in the tuckus.

that produce rap video reminded me of working at jimmy johns in evanston, il.

i can't believe these kids are getting sued for being kids.

#16, I remember when eco-conscious rockers were pushing the "biodegradable" cardboard jewel case. In my life I have yet to throw away a single CD. Pearl Jam's Vitology is looking pretty nasty these days with its frayed cardboard corners. Sure, downloads don't produce waste but you have to back them up, either on CDs or DVDs or yet another hard drive that is going to fail sooner or later.

"iPods are the symbol of the throwaway society."

To be honest, my iPod with approx 200 albums on it, the vast majority downloaded (legally or not) and a rechargeable battery seems much less wasteful than the prior alternative, which was a discman, 200 bought albums (physical media and plastic jewel cases) and god knows how many double A batteries. Sure, an iPod will last 3 years and be thrown away (I agree, a shame) but i never had a discman that lasted more than 4-5 years anyway.

In summary, I throwaway a lot less music related stuff now I have an iPod.

I should add Mahler 4th 3rd movement with Szell and Cleveland - you don't know what you're missing...

By A train, you must mean the Times Square Shuttle.

sorry, i meant, "it said A, but we assume it meant the E" because the A doesn't go to Jackson Heights.

The A doesn't go to Queens. Everyone knows this. Do you guys live in NYC?

oh god, head-fi nerds. good god almighty.

doesn't Apple always either upgrade or introduce new iPods every year in the fall? so why is this so big news?
