  1. The thing is, when I just had music on my computer I had less desire to get more songs than when I got an iPod to put them on. Couple that with the fact that I like many different genres of music and a 5GB iPod is full in a month or two. Sure there are songs I always skip right by, but music is very mood oriented. It's hard to choose which songs you don't want anymore, and when you do get rid of some, it's inevitable that you'll kick yourself for it later.

  2. I think the term of "bad beat" is pretty useless now. Too many people who think they know everything there is to know about poker use it everytime they have the best of it and get beat. If that's what a bad beat is supposed to be, then it seems like a pretty useless term, considering that it happens in nearly every hand. That being said, the move you made was correct. Ideally, you would have been dealt the jacks in a later position, but you can't choose that, and you couldn't call or fold there.

  3. The Beastles is class. I like every song.

    I think the Katrina victims song on Get Your Bootleg On is done really well, too.

    The Cure & Ying Yang Twins "Badd/Close To Me" is pretty awesome.

    The Cure & The Beatles "Taxman/Lovesong".

    The Temptations & John Lennon "Imagine/Ball of Confusion".

    Marilyn Manson & Eamon "Sweet Dreams/Fuck It" (title says Tainted Love for Manson, but it isn't Tainted Love).

    I really can't decide if I love or I hate Gwen Stefani & Ciara "Hollaback Girl/1, 2, Step".

    Holy shit. I dig NWA & Nirvana "Straight Outta Compton/Smells Like Teen Spirit".

    Kelly Clarkson & Led Zeppelin "Behind These Hazel Eyes/Immigrant Song" is quite good.

    Aggro1 doesn't seem to do anything that's not very awesome.

  4. Hendrix was an amazing guitarist, with amazing contributions, but part of the reason I credit him for contributions is because I don't believe he's still the greatest guitarist of all time. He's just helped us get to the level of player we can find now.

    I've gone through Hendrix-digging phases, but not in awhile.

  5. Whilst we're on the topic of poker can anyone explain in plain english why a flush beats a straight. To my way of thinking if you are sat on 4 of a suit compared to needing the final connector your odds of hitting it have to be higher, there's 13 of a suit and only 4 of each denomination, so how exactly is it harder to make a flush?

  6. I was getting tired, playing online, so, I went all in with 300 (fake) bucks on 8 2 offsuit. Just trying to go out with a bang. Well they both bet up more money for a three way flop.

    10 9 J.

    I didn't believe it, but the turn was a 7 and the last card was a 3, so I hit a straight jack high and won 1400 plus my 300 back.

    Good, but not as good as this.

    No, he's right, you're retarded. It's unamazing that you hit a straight with Queen Nine. You only needed three cards. I hit 4 cards to make a straight, and a straight was my only way out as he had a poket pair of kings. After the flop you needed 2 cards. I went all in before the flop, with an 8 and a 2. One out, and I hit it.

    My hand was better. :P

  7. EWB needs a nice little, affordable buy-in, hold'em tournament. Like five bucks or something.

    Also, a lot of times in home games with new players, moreso than any big error in the way they play their cards, I see a lot of people who find out about tells on TV and then try to send out false ones and fool everybody. Don't bother.
