Right, simple idea.

1. Get your lyrical heads on, or borrow someone else's head
2. Take a line from a song you like, and another line from a song you like, and put them together like part of a verse.
3. Repeat with different lines from different songs
4. Repeat again.
5. Keep repeating until you end up with something that's like a song and you think it would sound good.
6. Post, with the songs and bands you got the lyrics from, matching the order in which the lines go in the song. (See mine for an example)

Rules :
One line from one song, no repetition unless it's lines next to each other and they're repeated next to each other in the actual song.
You can have more than one song from the same band, but not more than one line from the same song.
Try and make it a reasonable length, maybe at least two verses, if you can manage a chorus then I shall worship you forever, but the no repetition rule still applies.

Enjoy?

Here's mine :

My Ultimate Song

This is fact not fiction
Don’t be scared of anything at all
Your embrace is waiting
So stay with me
So I can declare my independance
And get it all cleared up

I'm still hoping tommorow feels like this
So for one moment in time, you'd find that you're mine
Conspiracy, mystery, the air she breathes
Maybe we'll have one last caress
Maybe I could swim
You gotta promise not to stop when I say when.

Strike the chord that I desire most
This is the rise and fall
'Cause I don't wanna be your hero
But in truth I'm lost for words
What's the difference? Sail away
But I will come back for you

[Bridge] / [Solo]

Somewhere a clock is ticking
But youth forgot the time

Save us

'Cause that's what you get
I'm in love and always will be
I'm in love [Repeat & Fade Out]

What do you think of these? They're pretty well-formed, as far as I can tell, although they rest on a few sketchy premises. I guess that's what happens when you're trying to probe the subconscious. I could really feel its effect on me, though, and I couldn't even make myself try to fool the test as much as I do with other psychology tests.

These cards are also stickers, and got lil stories on the back about their characters. When I was younger I had a shoe box full of these, but lost them about eight years ago, and forgot what happened to them!

It might sound humiliating because I have fallen into a Multi Level Marketing scheme once. I take offence that some people claim that only "idiots" fall for this trick. I think it is about the timing not whether one is smart or not. Even the smartest will fall for the simplest trick sometimes.

Those ugly, two faced, bottom sucking, genital eating and inhumane multi level marketing scammers got me at the very wrong time. You see, I am in one of those very tough times in college. The stress was high, the economy sucked in the industry that I am studying for and being all alone and cut off from most of the world.

Almost to the verge of nervous breakdown, I needed relief. It was at that time these demons found my resume from the internet and called me. He did make me sound comfortable and knows that I sounded stressed and I needed relief. So I went to them and instead of expecting some opprutunity, what I got was something like a cult to pump you up. All bull-dung. Hell, even bull-dung smells better then them.

They go after only the poor and recently immigrated, with very hard to understand english. The amusing part is when one of those multi level marketing members have the grammer style from ZERO-WING. hehehe.

I lost some money because they claimed that I must pay a fee to join. Good thing I didn't pay anymore, because after awhile they will ask you for more. That F***ing scammer even DEMANDED that I take a loan from the bank and invest in him, ha yeah right......

They only want you to ruin the lives of your closest friends because they never want you to sell the products to people you don't know. In what they call a WARM-Market. Not only that, they will call up people you know and tell them that it is you who referred them to the scam. That is so cold!!! It didn't happen to me but I saw it happen to someone, in which he almost broke down and cried. ARRGGGGG!!!!

WHY can't it all be right out illiegal??? What is the government heisitating on??? This is a BIG HUGE problem, do you even know how many lives it ruined in the past?? Why is everyone so quiet??

Multi Level Marketing is a system that fails because of human nature. Forget about the what if's because that is all useless excuse. Some people don't wanna work that is why they try to recruit people like mad instead of selling the product, they sell you.

Does anyone agree with me? What do you think? Multi Level Marketing should be outright illegal.

Franchise is a franchise. Some people get them mixed up. Franchises focuses on products. Multi Level Marketing focuses on innocent people's money. Their product is PEOPLE!!!! Should something be done before it becomes a Soylent Green scenario??

does that even make sense?

Anybody else have any really dumb thoughts that still kinda make sense?

Any help is appreciated... I believe it's an anagram of some sort, it's meaning I'm not sure of. My german is a bit weak to figure it out.

I Do not remember that... But what if I did it last time?
Errr, do it again! The more I can write, the more poem (I might even do festive songs) we can sing at Christmas round the Christmas tree!

So How do I do it?
Easy. Just tell me stuff about yourself, the more you can tell, the more I can write. Of course, tell me stuff about your Best/Worst Christmas and other useless Christmas trivia. Here are some questions for starting points.

Whats you personality here/at home?
Do you like sport? If so which and do you like playing or watching them?
Are you married/have a partner?
Do you have children?
What country are you from/live nowadays?
What music do you listen to?
What books do you read?
Do you do something a lot that you don't have to do (i.e:Watch TV, Eat, Pick Your Nose, Stalk Halle Berry)
What sex are you?
Fave colour?
Ever done anything really stupid that sums you up? (ie: fall down a well cause you were on a mobile phone )
Favourite Food/Drink?
Any paticular celebriity/person you would like mentioning?
Any other infomation you would feel is necessary about yourself?
Best/Worst christmas?
Best/worst present?
Funniest christmas story involving yourself?

Remember, the more you give, the more I have to go on and therefore, the better It'll be.
So go ahead, and get a poem. Trust me, Christmas will be slightly brighter because of it. If not, there are no refunds.

Always good to know the cops ;)

We will be visiting Canada and going to at least 3 Major League baseball games: Cleveland Indians, Chicago Cubs and Detroit Tigers.

But while i got my taxi from JFK, I went past some awful areas. And theres were like groups of gangs. And I swear I saw a robbery. I was walking up Canal St, and this shop with red barred gates. There was various men inside. I walked up further to the end of that street. Turned and 2 men walked out and ran down into the subway near by. Seriously, We would never get this in UK. Ive been in my room watching the Food Channel and Rockers Halloween special was recently on. Now its these iron chefs ???
I want to know whats good near by apart from the obvious.
Thx in advance.........

Imagine that some guy figured out that your soul is actually in your spinal fluid and it held the secret to eternal life. He discovered it by doing spinal tap investigations, tracing cancers and drug uses. He began experimenting on test subjects and eventually on himself as seeing no adverse side effects on the patients.

A Direct Connection of Al-Qaeda to Germany?

John Rosenthal's Transatlantic Intelligencer has some background information on three German women recruited to carry out suicide attacks in Irak and Pakistan.

Apparently a German web site is provided original material from al-Qaeda – before the same material is then passed on to al-Jazeera.

The story - while potentially of great importance for the fight against terrorism - hasn't created much interest in the German media.

I guess it lacks a convenient villain with U.S. citizenship...

* "In much of Europe's public debate, the true meaning of human rights has degenerated into a tool that gives anti-Americanism an aura of legitimacy. The real, horrendous human-rights violations in the Middle East, North Korea, China, Cuba, etc., are largely ignored or relegated to news blurs on the back pages. For front-page coverage, you need an American angle." ---The Wall Street Journal
* "I discovered that European social democracy, too, was a kind of fundamentalism, rigid and doctrinaire, yielding what Swedish writer Johan Norberg calls "one-idea states"—nations where an echo chamber of insular elites calls the shots, where monochrome media daily reiterate statist mantras and shut out contrarian views, and where teachers and professors systematically misrepresent the U.S. (millions of Europeans believe that free public schools, unemployment insurance, and pensions are unknown in America). The more I saw of the European elites' chronic distrust of the public, and the public's habitual deference to those elites, the fonder I grew of the nasty, ridiculous rough-and-tumble of American democracy..." ---Bruce Bawer

Hmm never heard of that one.

PRJ, will you ever learn to write a comment without making stupid misplaced allusions to the nazis?

Posted by: Klops1 | May 03, 2006 at 10:26 AM

That's funny... sending SPIEGEL a bill for "editorial services". The scary thing is, if SPIEGEL's accounts-payable is like that of a lot of companies, they will probably pay it...

Seriously, it is rather remarkable that corrections like this get made at all, when the pressure is coming solely from a handful of Web sites. Truth is a powerful motivator. Who besides Medienkritik has commented on this article? Just scanning around the handful of English-language sites that I know of, I haven't found anything about it anywhere else. It looks like Medienkritik is catching some eyes among German MSM types.

Posted by: Cousin Dave | May 03, 2006 at 03:19 PM

PacRimJim, that remark is absolutely uncalled for. P*** off.

I would like German readers here to educate me. Most American publications have what is called a corrections policy. They publish corrections to articles in a standard place so readers can see them. Some newspapers, e.g. the Washington Post and New York Times also have ombudsmen, who critique the paper's performance per readers' complaints/compliments.

Same in Germany? Or not?

I get the feeling that website wants me dead l0l.
Its true, we are all still nazis.

Nino Brown's is the best out of all those.

"What's your favorite porn?"

I always thought a "Rate the sig of the poster below you" thread would be pretty cool.

"The Joy of Inoculation Shots" is probably not the best idea. You'd get to talk about how happy you are when you go get shots so you do not contract some fatal disease, keel over, and die with froth in your mouth. Someone then spoils the mood when they tell a wonderful campside story of how they contracted polio from their inoculation shot and their cousin lost an arm in a bad injection accident.

I heard Azar got stabbed when he went to go get some shots just recently. A doctor freaking stabbed him. What. the. heck.

The Underwear thread. You tell us about your underwear!!! What stains are on them this week?! You tell us!!! :p
