One more moment of geekery

Right this second Aslhey MacIsaac is singing "Silent Night" in Gaelic in my ears. He just did a spoken word bit. I'm telling the internet because no one in my immediate vicinity would give a shit. Not that any of y'all do, but at least I can't see you rolling your eyes at me ( Read more... )

OMG, how are you getting anything done?

How does that Pandora thing work? Does it just play through the internet, or do you need a separate application? If I can play it through the internet, e-mail it to me!

I wasn't while Ashley was speaking to me in Gaelic, that's for sure.

With pandora, I can email you one of my stations & you can listen to it but can't manipulate it. If you sign up(free) you can make a station and then edit/modify it by giving certain songs thumbs up/thumbs down and it will edit the selections based on your choices. Sometimes a station will take a lot of fiddling with-they keep putting on Dave Matthews or something-but eventually you hardly have to pay attention because it just keeps picking things you like based on what you've already said you like/don't like.

It's really great for work. Strangely, a whole bunch of my stations have ended up playing Joy Division like every 10th song. Even the one that started with Richard Thompson & Van Morrison.

I'll email you my holiday station.

Um, 'scuse, and I thought we had that special Ashley MacIsaac bond???
God that man is sex in a kilt.
...are you jealous because I have more of a chance in getting my hand up his skirt than you do? ;-)~

Oh, yeah, I forgot he was teh ghey. You should look him up on youtube & see if they have the footage from 1996 of him jigging commando on the conan o'brien show.
