Spicy Tuna Jaw And Backbone

Not much going on, still. Slightly depressed/bored/winter blues'ed/whatever. But i have some cool things to post about...

First: http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/story/0,3605,1605806,00.html. Mice sing. They do. Scientists just discovered this, but if you're friends with any rodents, you've probably suspected this, the way they'll sit and look at you with their jaws going 90 miles a minute... Anyway, the article has MP3's of the mice singing, slowed down or otherwise altered so we can hear it. So awesome.

Speaking of singing: If you like Katamari Damacy, or even if you don't, there's this website for a guy on the We Love Katamari soundtrack you should check out. His name is Dokaka, and he beatboxes. He does covers, and takes requests. He did "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by Nirvana, and there's an MP3 of it and a bunch of others (covers and originals) on his site. Very cool, funny stuff.

Speaking of We Love Katamari: I have 629,302 roses. Only around 400,000 to go.....

Time to go read.....

Pengo.

Heh, i was just on TV again... Well, my voice, anyway.

It was G4's Attack of the Show. The guy they send in to their chat room to take questions for the show was asking for callers who could identify classic arcade games by listening to the music. I wasn't going to bother calling at first, but i did at the last minute, and the guy on the phone sounded relieved, because the other callers were really young, and he said i "already sound better than the other two callers", so i got in.

It was right at the beginning of the show. The hosts said hi, played the music (the first one was easy, "Donkey Kong". I couldn't guess the second one until host Kevin Pereria gave me a clue, and then i got it: "Burgertime"). And that was it.

I won this: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000A9QKSW/: In Living Color - Season 4 Haha, yeah. Odd, random prize, but hey, it's free.

Anyway, the show repeats on G4TV a couple of times tonight and in the morning, if you would want to see it for some reason.


Oh, and my site got a little update recently; a color change, and the audio files restored to the Sifl & Olly section.
