  1. A few years ago I used to play competetive soccer almost every day. I would have two to three hour long soccer practices after school on top of the stuff I had to do in PE class. I was very fit and very healthy. Then I quit very suddenly mostly because I didn't make the age requirement to keep playing with the soccer buds. Since then I've never been that active. I do surf, hike, bike, and frisbee golf but not as frequently as I think I should. I think I'm going start playing some pick-up games with some friends though to start getting back into it.
  2. I use Windows the most simply because it is the OS most available at home, school, and most people's houses. I use Mac OS 10 on a G4 for recording music however and it runs really smooth.
  3. Ya man, the blue is way better. The green was too intense. The image is super smooth and I like how Mario is getting sucked in. Pretty slick man. What program do you use to make your banners? I definately want to learn how to do that.
  4. Californication was the title track off of the Red Hot Chili Peppers album Californication. Californication was realeased in 1999. It was a great album and had several successful singles. All of the band members (Anthony Kiedis, Michael "Flea" Balzary, John Frusciante, and Chad Smith) are amazing musicians as they are often voted as some of the greatest musicians. I've found that a lot of the "better" music doesn't actually get into the top ten very often.
  5. I just saw Without A Paddle. It wasn't the greatest movie ever but it was pretty funny. One funny thing is that Burt Reynolds is in it and plays this old and very hairy man who has lived in the Oregan woods for 30 years waiting for some guy.Also, Dax, one of the guys from the show Punked was in it. I have to say that he did a good job for his first lead role. Anyway, this movie is a good one to see with friends. later.
  6. Hey everyone. I am currently trying to learn a foreign language and was wondering if you could tell me the best ways to learn a language fast. Obviously, it takes many years to really learn a language but I'm going to Italy and Spain this summer and I want to be able to converse in the native tongue. As of right now I can carry minimal conversations. Any help would be appreciated.
  7. This is one of my favorite Third Eye Blind songs. Hope you enjoy!GOD OF WINE (Jenkins, Cadogan)Every thought that I repent, There's another chip you haven't spent, And you're cashing them all in, Where do we begin. To get clean again, Can we get clean again. I walk home alone with you, And the mood you're born into, Sometimes you let me in, And I take it on the chin. I can't get clean again. I want to know, Can we get clean again, The God of Wine comes crashing through, The headlights of a car that took you farther than you thought you'd ever want to go, We can't get back again, We can't get back again, She takes a drink and then she waits, The alcohol it permeates. And soon the cells give way, And cancels out the day, I can't keep it all together, I know...I can't keep it all together, And the siren's song that is your madness, Holds a truth I can't erase, All alone on your face, Every glamorous sunrise, Throws the planets out of line, A star sign out of whack A fraudulent zodiac. And the God of Wine is crouched down in my room, You let me down, I said it, Now I'm going down, And you're not even around. And I said no...I can't keep it all together, I know...I can't keep it all together, And there's a memory of a window, Looking through I see you. Searching for something,I could never give you, And there's someone who understands you, More than I do. A sadness I can't erase. All alone on your face.
  8. College will definately help "round you out" that is it will educate you about a wide range of topics so that if you wish to pursue a related field you will already have a base to start from. I'm currently attending college and have found that from taking a variety of classes I have realized that they are very much interrelated. I found that many of the skills I learned in one class could be directed applied in another. So I guess any skill you learn can prove invaluble if applied at the right time and to the right situation.
  9. Man this is one of my favorite songs. The lyrics are beautiful, genius in fact. You know how people say that our parents generation had Led Zeppelin well I'm proud to say that we had the Smashing Pumpkins. Billy Corgan knew how to write epic songs that to me are timeless yet capture how I felt when I was growing up. Kudos to the Pumpkins for their life-altering/awakening music!
  10. I use DSL. It is pretty fast and has a very consistent speed. The only problem is that with my modem I can't network it. I have a friend who has cable and his connection (which was the basic package) is faster than my connection. Although the fact that he doesn't live in a heavily populated city probably makes it that way as I have heard that for cable the bandwidth is shared amonst a neighborhood.
  11. Just saw a Korean swordplay movie called Sword in the Moon. This movie has some killer fighting in it and the special effects look very real. It is also an interesting window on Korean culture. Very interesting storyline about two best friends who become enemies and then at the end reunite. If your into foreign movies with subtitles Sword in the Moon would be a great choice.
  12. I use AntiVir because it is free and has frequent updates for new virus definitions and program improvements. It also has an antivirus guard that scans active files. It is a quick download and quick install. I haven't had a single problem with it. Also, I use Sygate Personal Firewall, which is free, without any problems. I would say that if you don't want to spend any money for antivirus then download Antir, AVG or Avast otherwise go for Norton or McAffee as they are hands down the better software.
  13. ya it s pretty much the worst computer we've ever had. I use an older Emachine model with Windows 98 and it runs sooo much better (although it s not a very good computer in itself). Dell really does use the cheapest parts!
  14. My family recently got a Dell. After a few boots, a Windows Media Player popup came up and asked if I wanted to install it. I clicked yes and proceeded on. Ever since then I have grown to regret that decision because now the program won't go away. It loads up every time I log onto to the computer and it takes forever. I tried removing it but then after a boot the software would reload it. As far as I know I don't have any virus. Anyone know of any way to get rid of it?
  15. This is a message to everyone. Listen to what you want to listen to. There will always be forces pushing and pulling you towards all sorts of stuff. The key is to LISTEN to the music and find out for YOURSELF what you think. And always try to approach new music with an open mind. In this way you will less likely filter out music that you could potentially love.
