Harvey obviously had mental issues - way too ambitious to be healthy - but I meant the burns. If half your head has been scorched off, you don't run around town like you don't give a damn. And if your eyelid burns off in a fire then your eyeball isn't intact underneath. Eyeball contains liquid. Liquid heats up. Eyeball goes pop.

This <--- Not possible.

I liked Aaron's portrayal of Harvey's personality split, though. I just have no idea why Nolan signed off on the makeup job. They could have done something much more subtle and it still would have given the "Two-Face" impression. This was like half man, half skeleton.

I meant his ambition was indicative of a more serious underlying disorder.

Or all of you can just stop being @#%^s.

Dude... you do know that this is the internet, right?

Let's play link roulette. One link is spiders. The others are cool/funny images.

That spider pic even kind of creeps me out.

What the @#%^ is the internet?

And then suddenly it was 17°C and sunny, walking outside is so weird right now... People wearing their winter coats walking next to people wearing only a t-shirt.

A series of tubes.

I was sleeping when that sh*t got posted, so I had time to read Theo's spoiler. Of course, I was expecting him to lie about it, so I clicked the first link and almost shat bricks when I saw the leaf and something pink and semi-transparent on it. It was just a froggy, luckily.

Answers: SpoilerTheo wasn't lying about which link it was. There was only one spider pic, and I made it especially horrifying (and I thought awesome. Wolf spider I think?)

Anywho, after Theo spoiled it I went back and edited my post because I luckily already had an edit tag in there. I just hoped that nobody would notice the subtly different links from my post and theo's quote.

But yeah, digg just has the worst luck ever. :U

SpoilerBest ninja edit ever. Hahahahahahaha.

went fishing. no fish. saw some of the orionid meteor shower though. so still pretty awesome.

This is mainly aimed at Aeth, but others interested in music feel free.

Mike Portnoy or Travis Barker?

Travis Barker, but with hair and 40% of his tattoos.

Or Mike Portnoy with less hair and Barker's sense of style.

I have no preference but I'm not really interested in drummers as long as they don't stand out in a negative way *cough*St Anger*cough*. Doesn't help that I'm no more than superficially familiar with both Blink 182 and Dream Theater though.


Now if you had said Steve Hackett or David Gilmour, then we could talk.

If any of you ever go to Lincoln City in Oregon, you must get clam chowder at Pier 101. That was the best chowder I have ever had. People in Oregon rave about Mo's clam chowder, I've had it before and Pier 101's chowder blew it out of the water.

Why? I personally think that Steve Hackett is the better guitarist, I find Gilmour's work to often be a bit too similar while Hackett can stay recognizable while being much more variable in style and mood. But if we're looking at musicianship as a whole, I have to give it to Gilmour because his songs have meaning and Hackett is a terrible lyricist (really, he just sings seemingly random words and partial sentences that have no relation to each other).

See this song:

The guitars are brilliant, the lyrics are.. euh.. well.. "Arms hanging over the sparkling water. Champagne on ice, a coconut surprise." I mean, really?

Yeah, I can see why you feel that way, I think Steve Hackett needs a good lyricist next to him. If you listen to the early Genesis albums it's just pure genius. Then again that's Steve Hackett, Peter Gabriel, Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford and of course Phil Collins. There's enough poppy sounds in there to keep Hackett and Gabriel grounded (whereas Yes to a certain degree and King Crimson to a ridiculous degree have floated away from reality) but enough prog to keep an amazing depth in the music.

I genuinely enjoy the later Genesis works without Gabriels and Hackett but it pales in comparison to the stuff with them in there. It's really rather sad that Peter Gabriel is successful enough on his own that he never wants/wanted to do Genesis again and that Phil Collins hearing is so deteriorated that it's beyond unlikely to ever happen again.

Edit: I have now had more different Dutch than Belgian beers. 103 vs 101 to be exact. This is a first for me, so yay Dutch beer!

How was Rick Allen not mentioned during a drumming conversation?

Gotta hand it to Allen for doing that sh*t with one hand. But he is not one of my favourites.
My favourites are Dave Grohl, Dominic Howard and Barker.

I dunno if I like Grohl as a musician, though I do like some of his music, but as a person in the industry he is amongst my favorite. He's quite outspoken about music sharing, has an amazing sense of humor, and has daughters. All things I can relate to.

Grohl is definetely one of my favourite musicians.
