[boyzdynasty]

why?...i'm adorable! *At least I think so....*

[linckx]

why don't you 'up' a picture of yours so we can decide ;)

robin

[boyzdynasty]

lol...ok....
I was thinking of posting stuff....let me get some time in and I'll use buggedcom imageWeaver.

but still...i am nice, adorable, ....you probably want to add 'concieted'....but I don't think I am...

now you probably wnat to add 'denile' *spelling *

and...by now...you probably think i'm crazy... :rolleyes:

[bluegel]

yep, we think you are crazy ;)

[boyzdynasty]

who thinks I'm not crazy...?

*raise 4 hands*

[linckx]

don't let the cat vote boyz!!

she was only reaching for the food you were holding :)

[boyzdynasty]

lol

[bluegel]

:mad:

thats harsh

[linckx]

what?

teasing the cat?
robin

[bluegel]

yeah about the cat!

[linckx]

--edited--

yeah boyz! shame on you :mad:

r:pbin

[boyzdynasty]

can any of you answer my post?
http://www.actionscript.org/forums/showthread.php3?s=&threadid=26429

[linckx]

sorry boyz...

never used php
never used dynamically created textboxes
never used scrollpane component...

so I probably know even less on that than the cat on it's back...

robin

[boyzdynasty]

aww...well...actually....

php and text stuff....is fine....
I guess I know how to do that.

It's the idea of creating prototypes....i'm not sure of.

But i guess the best sol'n is what freddycodes had provided.

thanx for taking a look. :)

[linckx]

yeah freddycodes is one of those guys who always have something for ya :)

hope it works

robin I can't wait for the weekend to try the codes out I have on paper and the ideas I have written down. :D

Still working on this crappy paper. At least the Prof. has extend the deadline to next thursday and not this thursday.

I'm at work now....working on my paper. *hehe* I hope I don't get caught :eek:

[linckx]

so boyz, how 'd the codes work?

**just to keep this thread alive ;) **

you should check this... bluegel and boyz and I have got over 100 posts in this thread alone... that's one tenth of our total! :D

robin

[bluegel]

hey again linckx.

why are you making out that its me that does all the posting anyway??

oh, and how do you know that we've got over 100 posts btween us, been counting??

[linckx]

not 100 posts between us... 100 posts each :)

just go to where the link to this thread is and click on the number of posts... then you'll get a view of who posted how many times...

you'll see yourself a lot ;)
robin

[boyzdynasty]

i don't see the number of post thing... :confused:

[linckx]

ok, for example:

go to this page: the general chat forum (http://www.actionscript.org/forums/forumdisplay.php3?s=&forumid=3)

and then you see the tiltle, the thread starter and tthe number of replies, etc...

click on the number of replies, and it'll appear :)

robin

[bluegel]

hey, whats happened with your sig and avatar?

oh dear - just seen how many times i've posted - will have to talk less from now on

[linckx]

got really sick of bush... :)
and this was a rejected background, which I liked even more than the chosen ones...

:D

don't talk less! I don't wanna become the next big-talker ;)
btw, you were very quiet today, what happened? deadline? internet breakdown? sleep? am I being to nosy here?

robin

[bluegel]

what day was i quiet?

today - thursday?

Off sick and didn't wanna pester my boyf into letting me use their internet whilst he was at work.

[Ricod]

*sits back keeps thinking how this thread reminds him of that movie "Threesome". ;)*

[linckx]

héhé, reminds me to that song

'staying alive' and 'the bitch won't die' :)

in which case the bitch is the thread of course!

robin

[linckx]

depends on us actually ;) we can keep her alive and kicking! :D
just have to use all of our talking skills to see how far we can boldly go where no-one has gone before ** raises fist and loses balance, making a state-of-the-art-kamikaze-this-is-going-to-hurt-auch dive downwards...

[boyzdynasty]

no no...this baby of mine can't die. *smile*

BTW: Been listening to a lot of opera lately. Helps keep me calm since I am very stress trying to meet these deadlineS

[linckx]

héhé, opera is not my thing, but I'm all into classical this last week... especially that soundtrack from requiem for a dream... (must have mentioned that one like 500 times allready).

found a version that was used for lotr called
lux aeterna by clint mansell or kronos quartet...

gotta love it, the way the tension builds up...

put that song on when doing some sort of contest and it'll push you over the line...

robin

[boyzdynasty]

i should check it out when i get home. sounds like it could be an inspirational piece for me too. :D

That song is incredible (the movies not bad too :))

Today i've been listening to mwng (http://www.mwng.co.uk) by the super furry animals, i've really been enjoying it. it's all in welsh but they have a website for it that contains translations to englsh for the songs. Gwreiddiau Dwfn/Mawrth Oer Ar Y Blaned Neifion (http://www.mwng.co.uk/mwnglyrics10.htm) is such a beautiful tune, in translation it turns out to be quite bleak though :)

[linckx]

you actually understand welsh?
nice!

robin

[catbert303]

Originally posted by linckx

robin
Hehe, no :) At least only what i've learnt from listening to bands who sometimes sing in welsh, for example Super Furry Animals, Gorky's Zygotic Mynci, both of whom are excellent :)

Iechyd Da! ;)

[linckx]

for a second there I thought you said gorki :)
belgian group, I'd show you ,but you won't understand cause it's dutch...

the singer had an 'english adventure' called Automatic buffalo, perhaps you can find something there :)

robin

[catbert303]

I found a site about them, I thought for a second they were going to be playing in London, but then I read closer and saw it was just that their support act was called "Camden" :)

[linckx]

camden rock btw...
the bass player and singer Axl Peleman is a great guy!
so is luc de vos, that singer of gorki

they're both nice and special 'cause they're not into the fame-thing, they stay grounded 100% without it being forced.

robin

[linckx]

another shocking statistic caused thanx to this thread:

take a look at the number of replies (10589) in comparison with the number of threads (901) of the general chat forum...

We did a great job :p

The Bodyguard Original Soundtrack? :eek: :eek:

[Ricod]

lol !
:0 -(And IIIIIIIIIIIII hi-yaaaaaaaaaaay ... will aaaaaall-waaaaaaays a-looooove yououououou ... ouoououou !)

[Xansi]

Yeah, I remember that song, there was even a spanish version here in México... :o ...sucks

[catbert303]

I'd think the spanish version needs to be heard (if only for novelty value ;)) - when I hear that song I can't helping thinking of the simpsons episode where Homer becomes a bodyguard. classic stuff :)

[Xansi]

...yeah, that episode was great, he was saving Luck Skywalker :)

[boyzdynasty]

Ricod...was that song dedicated to me :D....

I am touched....but feeling a little wierd now. :rolleyes:

[bluegel]

hey hey hey

whats going on btween boyz and ricod??

[linckx]

yeah...
clearify please :D

robin

[boyzdynasty]

lol... i dunno.

[Ricod]

:confused: :eek: What ARE you people thinking of me ? I would never cheat on Billy T ! :p W\But what if I were ? No reason to get jealous Bluegel / linckx. I love you all, but in different ways ! ;)

Seriously (remember, only take me seriously in General chat when I sound serious or say , "seriously") it was directed at that all time chart.

[Ricod]

I love some of you platonically, some mentally and perhaps some even physically ... ;) Who in what way will remain a mystery for all eternity !

[linckx]

yes yes,

so bluegel, we should be happy he loves us phisically, he didn't attempt to adjust our pictures ;)

robin

[Ricod]

linckx, if I loved you physically .. believe me, you'd know ! ;)

Each of you would have had several hundred pms by now (all equally pathetic ! ranging from "Don't I know your avatar from somewhere ? Oh right, it's in the encyclopedia next to the word 'Mi-auw !'" till "Show me your URL, and I'll show you mine ...") :o

[linckx]

man you're funny :D

robin

[Ricod]

Thanks !

Unfortunately, most girls think so too ... :(

For once I like to be referred to as "the studly one" and not "the funny one" or something similar ! ;)

[linckx]

what could be a better quality than making other people happy?

robin

[boyzdynasty]

ricod...insecure?...no way...:eek:

[Ricod]

A better quality ? :rolleyes: *comes up with lots of stuff but decides not to mention them since this isn't a XXX site* :D

--(edit)--

boyz, I'm not insecure ! *sees a girl looking just in the general direction* eh .. ah ... ehrm ... well ... like ... um ... eep

[linckx]

to go way to the beginning again:
the new song of evanescence: bring me to life.

gotta love it, they're like a well balanced softer version of linkin park... but with a singer that has a very nice voice.

would love to hear her do something with the guy from staind...
anybody nows outside, it's been a while and fade? three magnificent songs! same style however, but each great in it's own way :D

robin

[bluegel]

havent listened to anything by them, but have heard of them.

now staind - they are good - and those songs are so powerful

[linckx]

live they rock! saw them once, would pay big money to see them twice.

you don't know evanescence? linkin park?
you should, they're great bands! I'm sure you know 'in the end' from LP...

robin

[bluegel]

do I know evanescence?

or linkin park?

which one are you talking about?

I know who Linkin Park are - I've seen them live

[linckx]

havent listened to anything by them, but have heard of them

who were you talking about?
if it was evanescence... shame on you :D this thread was started for a song of theirs...

they rock! not a fresh breeze, yet a little refreshing :D
and 'my immortal' must be one of the most beautiful chorusses I've heard this year.

robin

[linckx]

just listening to justin timberlake

yes I confess.

cry me a river and rock your body are two songs I really like.
just listen to rock your body from justin and afterwards to beautiful from snoop dogg.

great
robin

[bluegel]

ok, listened to them.

they arent bad - do like that song my immortal though, but not quite sure about the rest. will have to listen to them some more and see.

[boyzdynasty]

c'mon ya'll....i've been promoting evanscene from the getGo.
was no one reading it :(

I remember telling xXLM that they are a blen of Linkin Park (hard) and Enya (soft).

[bluegel]

hey

back to the subject of this thread.

just thought I'd let you know that I have now got a copy of evanescence's album.

[bluegel]

listening to:

50 Cents - Many Men.

Good song...

(btw - its hip hop for those of you who dont know who they are)

[catbert303]

wow what happened? when did people decide to post on topic ;)

not wanting to break the trend. I'm listening to Courtesy Of Choice by Leila. She used to be Bjork's keyboard player and then went solo (well with some friends to guest on vocals for some tracks)

you can download mp3's of bootlegs and stuff shes done from the soundroom page at http://www.leilamusic.co.uk/

Especially worth checking out is the "space invaders need a resolution" mp3 :)

[bluegel]

another beautiful song or two:

Him - Beautiful

and

Him - Gone with the Sin

very deep and full of feeling

[linckx]

I only know their most famous song: join me in death...


love it!
robin

[bluegel]

Lyrics to Gone With the Sin by Him

I love your skin, oh so white
I love your touch cold as ice
and I love every single tear you cry
I just love the way you're losing your life

Oh, my baby how beautiful you are
oh, my darling completely torn apart
You're gone with the sin my baby
and beautiful you are
so, gone with the sin

I adore the despare in your eyes
I worship your lips once red as wine
and I crave for your scent sending shivers down my spine
I just love the way you're running out of life

[boyzdynasty]

how is everyone?
FINALS are over....school is done....but I start school again in a week :(

taking summer courses...(night classes)....and working during the day.

been listening to "no letting go" by Wayne Wonder.
That song is the shhhaaaaiiiIIIIiitttttTTT.

[linckx]

oh I see I haven't answered yet to bluegel...
Sorry, there's a stagiair here, and he's taken over the computer where my mailaccount is, so I have to read my mail and then recall on which ones I'm going to answer on another computer.

'Bout him, I really love that song, but as I said, don't know others and it's not the right time to download...


boyz, I'm very happy your finals are finalized! Enjoy a well deserved rest mate!
shhhaaaaiiiIIIIiitttttTTT, is that a synonym for awesome or awfull?


soooo happy soooo happy, my girlfriend is coming over this night...
robin

soooo happy soooo happy, my girlfriend is coming over this night...
robin

ooooh, I'm so happy too, for you that is

[boyzdynasty]

hehe....it means awesome.

I think the song is really nice.

Robin, hope you got lucky...hehe.
Is this girl you were drooling about? She is finally datin' you? :D

[catbert303]

I just bought Relationship of Command by At The Drive-In, its fantastic - reminds me of the best moments of Rage Against The Machine :D

Fortunatly no-one else is in the office this afternoon, so I can play it loud :)

Have fun tonight Robin :)

[bluegel]

shhhaaaaiiiIIIIiitttttTTT

in the UK it would mean: awful.

Yeah, Linckx is finally going out with this girl. I cant tell you much more, because I dunno whether I'm supposed to, but from his PM, it seems like he's got his head in the clouds already

[linckx]

thanks guys :D

yes boyz, she's the girl i've been drooling about.
We"re together since saturday :D

can you believe it's four hours untill I'm going to see her and allready feeling really really rushed to get everything done :D

being in love isn't good for the easy life my heart was leading several weeks ago...
I love this song from 'at the drive in' called wishing well...


robin

[boyzdynasty]

your in love?...really?.... aww....that is nice.

I hope you clean out the flat and kicked your mates out. *lol*

[catbert303]

I've not heard that one. I think I will soon though, i'm about to start buying up every record of theirs I can find http://www.fadzter.com/smilies/buttrock.gif

[linckx]

my mates are respectively: a guy who doesn't come out of his room.
my boss who's planning to go out
my other boss who will be working all evening.

so I won't be seeing any of them, but be able to introduce them, and so everyone is happy.

I just can't wait to hold her in my arms again...
robin

[boyzdynasty]

*goose bumps* :eek:

[linckx]

right now me too ;)
her hands are so cold when she rubs my back... next time I'll get her some gloves... :D

addicted to flashing?....can you define? ;)

[bluegel]

you know what I mean boyz

[boyzdynasty]

i'm thinking of the naughty version....so I dunno if the 'shy' girl is thinking the same way ;)

[bluegel]

that's what i was thinking too.

[boyzdynasty]

:D

[linckx]

héhé,
hi you all :d

I'm not that addicted but while I was typing here, she was
msn-ning on my second screen, we were sharing a computer :d

I guess...

other very long ones are the
Ask Dr Lank (is that written right?)
and the what languages do you speak thread,
and the 'meeting people on AS.org one, which is started in the same period as this one :)

robin

[bluegel]

for all you peeps who like Evanescence - I'm going to see them a week on sunday!

[linckx]

ok so now youy've got me drewling...
not good for keyboard... ;)

robin

[boyzdynasty]

o...o...
if you can, take some pix!!

[bluegel]

I'll see what I can do - but its at a festival that I'm going to.

My boyf and I are going for the weekend and its not really his thing, but we are meeting up with his best mate and girlf on sunday, when they are playing. and I know too well that the best mate wants to see them, so I'll go with him

[linckx]

what festival was that again you were going too?
I think you allready mentioned but I don't remember where.

I myself can't wait to go to http://www.rockwerchter.be but the festival, not the website ;)

gonna go with lot's of friends, and I've been addicted to festivals for about four years now... they cost money, but I'm so happy to be able to tell people:

I've seen them there and they were great... :d

robin

[linckx]

oh, 'bout evanescence, got them on my list for pukkelpop (another festival) and usually they keep track of the most voted bands if they're not touring around to go get them, and... they're touring!!

everybody cross the fingers...
hope they'll come!

robin

[boyzdynasty]

i should check to see if they are comin' around the east coast of the US.

[linckx]

yes you should :d

robin

[bluegel]

its the download (http://www.downloadfestival.co.uk) music festival.

It seems like there has been bad reports though about evanescence playing because they are quite high on the bill and no one knows who they are.

[linckx]

my to-do list if I were going:

marylin manson --> might go see his belgian show
deftones-->always good for some nice music ;)
a--> love 'nothing' and 'starbucks'
sepultura --> to be able to tell people I've seen them
him --> love 'join me'
audioslave --> cochise baby!
disturbed --> they rock! saw them last year twice
mudvayne --> recognise the name, but not the music
spineshank --> new disease rocks!


ooooh ooh I forgot one, can't find the name ;)


EVANESCENSCE!! gonna buy the album next weekend I guess, together with a tent and a matras (mine are soooo old... been with me through soooo many festivals, I've earned a new one)

robin

[bluegel]

you havent got that bad a taste in music there linckx ;)

Ok - this is my list:

MARILYN MANSON - I'm intrigued by this one, never been much my thing, but his version of Tainted Love was good, so maybe.
DEFTONES - dunno much of their music - but always good
A - enough said
REEL BIG FISH - more ska
HIM - I'm in love
SOIL - cant remember songs but do like them
AUDIOSLAVE - to chill too
LESS THAN JAKE - its ok, listenable
DISTURBED - cant remember songs but do like them
EVANESCENCE - enough said
ONE MINUTE SILENCE - will be seeing them, but cant remember what they sound like at the moment
NOFX - they just rock!
BOUNCING SOULS - ooh, punk / ska
STRUNG OUT - ooh, ska :D, but not too bouncy
SPUNGE - ooh, ska :D

[linckx]

you havent got that bad a taste in music there linckx

thx! :D you kinda grow into this kinda music when doing a lot of festivals :d

robin

[bluegel]

yeah - post number 900, and I'm in the top 20 posters too

:D :D

[CyanBlue]

That's mighty fast... Congrats... :)

[linckx]

yeah, but look at you cyan, you're at almost 4000 now! I remember the happy kilopost cyanblue thread :D

congrats bluegel, 100 to go, and when you look at my count ,you can easily reach that in a week, perhaps a week and a half, if you include the download festival ;)

robin

[boyzdynasty]

just saw a performance of T.A.T.U on t.v and well....

the song "not gonna get us" is great....and they look great.

but there performance was bad....b/c they weren't energetic at all :(

At least, dance to the beat......o...well.... I still like 'em.

hey, I think you'll find that it isnt as fast as my other posting 100's. Mortimer Jazz commented today, that he hadnt seen me online lately.

but thanx anyway.

most of the posts from the last 100 were asking for help anyway, so I have been productive.

[linckx]

héhé, what happened to that other 806? ;):p

robin

[bluegel]

lol

well it started off with me asking lots of questions - and i MEAN LOTS. then I tried to help lots of people. Then I got stuck again.

and in all of that, I chatted here lots too

[linckx]

no you think? ;)

without this thread I still wouldn't be at 1000 :d

robin

[boyzdynasty]

lol...this is our little community w/in as.org :D

[linckx]

well... euhm...

you're both right :D

and I love this thread!
robin

[linckx]

must have been 23 seconds... was chatting with my love, and I just told her 'bout "indigo girl" from watershed

I said: Da's echt een supernummer!
which means as much as
that's really a superb song! ;)

and every day when I wake up and check my mailbox... It says :

Hello linckx,

person X has just replied to a thread you have subscribed to entitled - i love this song.... - in the General Chat forum of ActionScript.org -- FORUMS.


:D I'm devoted ;)

robin

[boyzdynasty]

at work listening to some eminem....and one of my co-workers told me that I better be here on my last day.
*lol*

They are giving a *bye* *bye* party. Isn't that nice?! :D

They're all happy that I got an internship.

But I hope they will miss me...hehe.....

*I want them to mourn over me....:D

[linckx]

héhé party is cool...

went out for a little drink with my boss because we were both freaking tired. It was 5 untill we got back in... (I hear you thinking... five must be do-able). It's not.

I am reading things that aren't there. Luckily I only have one hour to go right now... But I'm soo sure I'm going to fall asleep on the train.
Luckily my honey got her drivers licence and she's going to come and pick me up at the station. If that can't keep me awake? :D

robin
btw: I really think eminem needs to get his face out of attention a little now. He's the best, he's a phenomenon. But he is wearing out a little here, way to much airplay. Even great music can't survive that.

[boyzdynasty]

yea....true.

O...about parties.... *sigh*

I'm so freakin' tired.

It's about 8:30am here....

Yesterday, I had lots of freinds/classmates graduated and I had to go to 2 diff. graduations.
(Within the University there are colleges.....each college represent an area of study)

Anyways, I went to the Fox School of Business graduation and that was nice...but my butt was numb.
*It was so long*

The graduates ended up blowing up a beach ball and starting bouncing it around while the Prof(s) were speaking.
The speeches were boring but I found the beach ball hoax and bubble blowing were funny.

Then....I went to "The College of Science Technology" - CIS,Bio,Chem,...etc...majors were graduating.
I had lots of friends from the CIS area graduated.

This one Professor made a 20-30 mins. speech about *blah blah blah*
He was horrible.

eRRRr

My friends told me to apply for the Student Speaker position next May (that is when I will be graduating).....
I'm considering it and I'll make sure my speeches are entertaining.


Anyway...i had a point to this story....
*hmm....o...yea*

Well there were madd graduation parties to attend to *sigh*
I am madd tired. but I had fun.

And tonight will be another one, but it will be sucky for me b/c I am driving (so...no drinking for me) :mad:

[Ricod]

Busy schedule eh boyz ? ;)

And sorry about tonight, but good to hear ! No drinking and driving ! :cool:

[linckx]

DO THAT SPEECH BOYZ!!

I did ours (only secondary school however) for like 700 people, was shaking like hell... But if you want to experience the feeling of 'lose yourself' 's first paragraph... well... can't get any closer than that.

And it's really great, you'll get a shipload of respect and everybody will be friendly (of the profs...) so if you need help afterwards, they'll be happy to give it to you.

yup yup...bz...bz...

All weekend I was celebrating memorials day and graduation....hehe

I got to see Russell Watson perform at the memorial day concert in D.C. (from the t.v.)

Actually, I recorded it b/c I was at the casinos w/ my friends.
I actually won $50. I had won over $100 but I was being greedy :rolleyes:
And I ended up w/ $50 winnings left...and so I stopped.


I will definitely consider doing it but the criteria of the speaker....welll.....might be a problem.
The student speaker had GPA of 3.92 out of 4.0 *wow* ....and she had a lot of awards/scholarship recognition.

I have only a 3.4 gpa....hopefully, I'll get a 3.5 by the time I graduate.

The GPA requirement for a student speaker is 3.3 but I'm sure they look at other stuff too.

I think I am fine w/ performing in front of people.
Kinda have some experience in that department :D

[Ricod]

ur breakdance experience coming in handy after all ? :D

[boyzdynasty]

lol... *shhh*

So Ricod, how is school?

[linckx]

looking at your grades and the work you've done... you earn it allready ;)
luckily with us the criteria were: someone who's been there long (5 years) and with a big mouth... and otherwise someone who had to to get through... ;)

Luckily I was the first and not the second. :D

robin

[Ricod]

haha ! Is you're mouth that big then ? What are we talking about here ? Steven Tyler from Aerosmith big ? Mick Jagger of the Stones big ? :D


Yeah, boyz, with all that you've done for the project you've earned a spot !

My school ? hmm, pretty busy. tests tests tests, you know the drill. ;)

[linckx]

well... did you really have to name two of the most ugly people in rock history? any identification (unless it were financial or number of dates (skip that one, no need to)) is rather not nice.

but if you do insist... let's say... skin? the singer of skunk anansie?
but figuraly speaking then... ;)

or something like --> :D
robin

[boyzdynasty]

lol....
steve tyler does have big lips...really extraordinary :D

=========

test test test....that is good. Keeps your mind running and working. :cool:

I started summer classes last week and I am working on a paper that is due today. :rolleyes:

=========

BTW: Anyone heard of T.A.T.U? I post about them earlier. Now I am curious if they are actually gay and going out. I saw the video "All the things you said"....and wow.... they were making out and turning me on. I haven't look 'em on the net yet but I will. My friend told me they are only 16-year old girls. :eek:

[linckx]

don't think they're sixteen...
they are lesbians though, and went to eurovision song festival for russia, where they made a big fuss:

One of the singer's voice was really bad, but she was obligated to keep on singing, and had to go to the hospital with voice-problems. So they asked a third girl.

But the real big fuss was: their manager wanted them to kiss on stage... but the direction of ESF didn't want them too... for what I've heard they didn't, but I didn't watch.

check some of the songs out and weep (and understand why I don't watch ;))

[linckx]

robin

[bluegel]

they are not lesbians!

Basically, their band manager is a psychologist and he wanted them to make an impression. Being a psychologist - he knew that it would cause a stir for people to kiss live on tv.

And, they are good friends who have grown up together, and it is not uncommon for girls to kiss other girls and not be lesbians

[linckx]

auch...

didn't mean to hit a sensitive point there... :D
so they're not lesbians :D

robin

[catbert303]

It was a good piece of marketing, all that free publicity from the Daily Mail (and others) showing their moral outrage :rolleyes:

<helen lovejoy from the simpsons>Won't somebody please think of the children!</helen lovejoy from the simpsons>

Unsurprisingly All the things she said went straight to number 1 in the uk when it was released.

[linckx]

yup, but I heard their stadium-tour had to be cancelled because only a thousand tickets were sold in two months...

All the things she said went to first place here also, and not gonna get us ... well, it's quite high in the rankings, but I don't really like it... when you sing along with it, there's always this urge to 'rape' the song... it's to much or to less... gotta make up my mind...

robin

[catbert303]

Their success might well be short lived, but the managers and producers etc will make plenty out of them while it lasts.

Back on Eurovision, did you see the UK's entry, it was the funniest thing ever* never has a song been so deserving of Nil Point ;)


*disclaimer, may not actually be the funniest thing ever.

[linckx]

Well... Eurovision song festival... i only watched the last 6 country's vote... we were going out and we went to a friend of ours who broke her foot a week ago, just to say hi before we went out, and they were watching the finale, and since belgium was first at that moment... we kept on watching.

I'm telling you, that whole thing would so much more fair if they'd keep the scandinavian countrys out of it... they vote for eachother... everytime...

but on the otherside, I know that spain and turkey always vote for us and we do for them...

Eurovision is not my thing.

robin

[boyzdynasty]

ok...so they're not gay.

well...the publicity stunt sure got my attention :D


BTW: cabert and linckx....i'm so lost w/ your eurovision thing.... :rolleyes:

[linckx]

nevermind, you didn't miss anything with cultural content ;)

robin

[bluegel]

arrrgh

Im so annoyed.... :mad:

[linckx]

do you mind sharing your annoyance with us?
You've just been to download... so I wouldn't guess a bad temper is one of the things you feel now?

robin

[bluegel]

havent been to download - its this weekend. Tickets ahvent arrived yet, ticket company engaged and have been since 9:00 this morning.

some guy in the cool sites forum has just had a massive go at me from just one comment and is basically slagging me off for no reason (the one titled - flash design)

I dislocated my thumb yesterday on the way home from work and can hardly move my thumb or my fingers today as they are swollen so much....

do you need more of a reason than all that? ;)

[linckx]

at least you've got one hell of a festival to look forward too :d
I bought the cd of evanscence... lot's of beautiful songs, but a little less catchy than bring me to life...

nevertheless I'm really happy I bought it, thezy're gonna be massive if they keep up with this quality.

I'm gonna check that thread out... perhaps I'll give him a go...

And 'bout that thumb... It's the right moment to get really spoiled by your boyf ;):p

robin

[bluegel]

oh, and thanx for sticking up for me there linckx

[linckx]

hey,

you said nothing wrong, nothing offensive, and your responses on that bitter remark of him were great.
there was no-one who could get any mad feelings on that...

Some people just don't seem to go along quite well with critic... I'd like to see them when argueing to their boss :D and searching for another job :D

it's mean I know but people need to learn to blink bad things away instead of offence-play...

so you're going by car to download? sounds great! I just bought my new tent... 4 persons-iglo-tent with everything on it and in it you need, for not even 50 euros...

can't wait to test her... :D

robin -- might be heading home now, it's a holiday for us and guess who's not taking it... :(

[boyzdynasty]

aww...who has been messing with our bluegel.

I'll go have a peep too.

[boyzdynasty]

just notice linckx number of posts....he will pass by me soon. :D

[boyzdynasty]

okay... today is my last day at work.
I will be starting my internship on Monday.

This is so depressing. I feel so bad for leaving. I dunno....*sigh*

ok...back to work. I still have to finish this project for my boss before I leave. I guess I'm done but just need to add a few finishing touches on it.

And have to write up some kind of report so user know what files/forms/tables....to look at at.

okay...later gators.

[boyzdynasty]

I saw the movie, "Wrong Turn," last night and wow....i was so into the movie.

*scary*

It takes place in Virgina!! CyanBlue, I will never go to Virgina.
If you wanna know why, watch that movie!

[CyanBlue]

Nah... My butt is too heavy to get out of this chair... I'll order the DVD or something later... :p

Scary??? Aren't you supposed to be a man??? Mad don't do scary stuff... Aight??? :)

[boyzdynasty]

It is nice to see other people (strangers) reaction.....lol...

Scary??? Aren't you supposed to be a man??? Mad don't do scary stuff... Aight??? :) I wasn't that scared. :rolleyes:

It was the first scary/thriller movie I have seen in awhile.

But I can wait for Jason Vs Freddy to come out. When I was little (pre-teen years), my friends and I talked about Jason vs Freddy but nothing ever happen. The rumor started b/c of the movie b4 the last movie...I think it was "Jason goes to Hell"....
At the end, Freddy's hand/glove with claws rised from the ground and pull Jason's mask in.

:o Anyways....blah blah blah.
I heard "The Ring" was good, probably go pick up the dvd.

[Ricod]

The Ring ? Bah, I prefer the original "Ring". Ofcourse, you have the cope with the Japanese acting with that one ... it's a bit soapy if you ask me. :rolleyes:

[catbert303]

I loved the original ring, I was tempted to sleep with a light on after watching it though ;)
I saw the remake in the cinema, and to be honest it was a lot better (and close to the original) than I expected it to be. Watching the reactions of the people in the cinema was quite entertaining, there were people leaping out their seats everywhere ;)

[boyzdynasty]

what?! There was an original, really?

How can I get a hold of it? Does it have subtitle?

I didn't know there was one. hmm...maybe I'll watch the original version since you guys seems to think it's better.

[linckx]

héhé boyz....

I wouldn't be closing in on you if they didn't include useless posts in the post-count :D I guess by now 75 till 80% of my posts is in general chat... add a couple in cool sites and site check... and some questions of my own...

gotta start bettering my life it seems :D

hated my weekend though... back single again :(
not too depri though... was a good thing to have, wasn't worth to fight for...

robin

[boyzdynasty]

wuh? what happen? And don't tell me it was over something stupid?!

====

It was my first day today at work. The interns that I had sat with was pretty cool.
We'll try to have lunch together 2morrow but there is a problem. We all except one are working at different buildings :(
And the buildings are like 5 miles away from each other.

It is like a University Campus. :)
I like the environment. It is very different from what I am used to.

My first day was a little wierd b/c we had to get finger printed :rolleyes:
Now that was very strange!!
Anyways, the place has tight security....so.....i guess....

The whole day was mainly an information session. We learn about the company and what they do and their coporate policy (dress, harassment, etc....)

It was a long day.

:eek: I hate my id pix. We had to take four poses and pick the best one. But they were all hideous!!

I will meet my manager 2morrow and get familiarize where and what I will be doing.

I'll keep you guys posted 2morrow. It looks like I can't access as.org at work :(
They monitor everything and I don't wanna get in trouble. :D

[linckx]

well...

she couldn't quite forget the guy she really really loved (2 years ago allready) and the first month we got to know eachother and first two weeks we were together she liked me like she liked him...

And then she started comparing me with him... and when I got the hang of that... I had something like: hey, I'm robin and not ------ . and because I didn't feel 100% anymore I must have given wrong impulses... and it went wrong when she got real mad at someone and I tried to calm her down, and she exploded against me...

so I gently walked away... and that evening we went to a party and I took her apart, and just when I wanted to tell her I didn't wanna continue anymore, she told me the same... so we stopped.

but we're still good friends and all of our common friends take it really well.
so it's not that big loss... I'm actually happy I got to feel soooo in love again, and see it not harm everything I've got like the last time I had that feeling...

well, I'll stop boring y'all...

robin

[bluegel]

aww, Im sorry to hear that linckx

[linckx]

don't be, I'm not sorry either...
everything turned out better than I dared to hope...

even the 'split'...

so it's just back to single again, nothing else has changed... thank god...

robin

[CyanBlue]

I'm sorrt to hear that, my man..... :(

I like your positive attitude towards things happening to you... That's a good way of living... Being positive, I mean... :)

boyzdynasty... Glad to hear that you are doing well... Stop by often... :p

[linckx]

héhé, positivity is me... :D

yeah boyz, keep us updated on 'the adventures of the new guy at work'...

and 5 km isn't that big a problem, is it? how much time have you got to lunch?

friendly greetings,
robin

[bluegel]

good to hear that you are doing well boyz

its also good to hear that you are not too down about things linckx.

ps. does anyone know how far 5km is in miles?

[linckx]

1 mile is +- 1.5 km

so that should be something like 3 miles, isn't it?

robin

[linckx]

depends huh, both have to walk like 1.5 mile if they find something in the middle between them :D

robin

[bluegel]

I suppose

[linckx]

héhé, if he uses all of his charms he might even be able to get the other guys to come over and eat near his work :D

let's hope those others aren't sooo charming, because otherwise boyz might have to do some walking... ;)

robin

[bluegel]

ok all, this is the festival news. I went to download on the weekend, and saw lots of bands including evanescence.

Line up and who I saw:

Saturday: (seemed to have spent all day faffing around getting passes etc, and looking at clothes)
IRON MAIDEN - saw the end of - didnt do it for me, old rockers
A - cool, was a bit violent in mosh pit
MARILYN MANSON - apparently had naked dancers, saw about 10 minutes, very weird
REEL BIG FISH - somehow missed half of this, but really cool
DEFTONES watched them while on the grass drinking beer
INME - heard them from tent, as boyf had passed out in the sun
HIM - rocked - and he took his top off, very nice

SUNDAY: (and saw some other bands but dont know who they were)
FLINT - no comment
DISTURBED - they were quite good
SPUNGE - saw a little of it, heard all of it, they were cool
EVANESCENCE - not too in tune, but only band I really wanted to see
ONE MINUTE SILENCE - these were good too even though not really my scene.

and we missed metallica on their set, but they did a kinda oncore on the main stage, which we saw, and took us a while to work out who they were.

Got very sunburnt too, but was good fun

[linckx]

are you telling me you missed metallica?

...

[bluegel]

yeah, well we didnt realise it was them. and then we found out later it was them, and so yeah, we missed them

[linckx]

they were like a suprise act or so?

robin

[bluegel]

there were rumours that they were playing, then the rumours were denyed. even the download team denyed they would be playing, then they played instead of Apocalytica (or whatever they are called)

[linckx]

are you sure it wasn't apocalyptica? 'cause they're absolutely great... four guys with cello's playing own songs and metallica covers...

they're both great bands!
I've seen apocalyptica, and in three weeks I'll finally be able to say I've seen metallica...

wouldn't miss it for the world...

robin

[bluegel]

no, it was definately metallica.

they were doing it on the cellos just like apocalyptica, but it was definately metallica. apparently it was packed out. there's a review on the site

download (http://www.downloadfestival.co.uk)

[linckx]

woow, nice on one hand...

but I'll settle for the 2 hr set they're gonna play at werchter :p
yihaaaa let the beasts go!

robin

[boyzdynasty]

You guys are so funny.

I had never been to a festival b4. Maybe when I'm around your area during those festival seasons....you guys can take me out.


As for work....

So far so good. I am not gonna do any programming. Kinda disappointed about that, but it's cool. My summer classes are killing me anyway.

I missed this place and I missed a lot. :(
I'll try to drop by once and awhile.

[bluegel]

yeh, agree with you on taking you to a festval, you are missing out.

shame to hear that you are so busy, do try and pop by, it'll be lonely here without you :(

[boyzdynasty]

i'm glad some people still remember me here :D

feeling down lately. I said before that I like to keep busy but I think it is really taking its toll on me.

*Listening to some music ....very relaxing*

Working during the day and going to school at night....*sigh*...it's exhausting.
I find myself falling asleep on my couch with my working clothes on after coming from class.
Then I wake up and realize it is time to go to work....*again*

Today (Saturday) it will be raining all day. I figured I stay in, blast the music up and..... relax? Nope ....gotta do some homework.

Yesterday, the team took me and the other intern out for lunch. Only 12 people could make it, but it was fun. I got a chance to meet Chuck, who is in the UNIX group. I probably go visit him more often at work because I want to get to know or involve in what he does. He writes up UNIX scripts ....basically....he does programming. And that is what I want to do.

The work that me and the other intern are getting does not involve any programming at all. :(

--------------

Linckx, I'm glad that things had worked out.
My Ex and I been hangin' out together lately....(dinner, shopping, movie,....)

I guess I still have some feelings for her but not sure how she actually feels about me. But it looks like I'm becoming one of those guys that girls consider as a "best friend"....

If I get a lot of work done today, I guess I'll call her to go out tonight and talk. :rolleyes:

--------------

p.s.
I will look forward to a future festival. :cool:
hmm....maybe that should be as.org first meeting activity/destination!!

[linckx]

darned boyz...
make sure you manage to survive that lifestyle man ;)

I'd love to take you guys to some festivals, but the really great ones are allready sold out or passed this year...

maybe next year ;)
but make sure you drop by once in a while, or I might forget about you...

nah, I couldn't, you're the guy who got me to know evanescence ;)

robin

[VitiminJ]

My favorite bands

Radiohead & The Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Man these guys evanescence blew up didn't they. Don't get me wrong I like the song and everything but they're not the next Zepplin. They played here in Cleveland, OH a few weeks ago for $6 a ticket.

Also Under the Bridge, this generations Stairway? Anyone agree?

[boyzdynasty]

Originally posted by VitiminJ

[linckx]

under the bridge of rhcp
and stairway to heaven from led zeppelin :D

the song of this generation in my opinion must be
smells like teen spirit, wether you like it or not...

others include
under the bridge (rhcp)
nothing else matters (metallica)
open your eyes (guano apes)
bro hymn tribute (pennywise)

but that's just my humble opinion...
robin

[McGiver]

Oh, a neverending thread!

Best: Blackmail-it could be yours
and of course: everything from Red Hot Chili Peppers

+agree to vitaminJ

[bluegel]

stairway to heaven - which generation are you in??

[linckx]

one in which that's still one of the best songs ever written?

robin

[bluegel]

I wouldnt have said stairway to heaven was my generation, thats all

[linckx]

well, it ain't mine neither :p
fortunately ;):D

robin

[McGiver]

nothing to do with generation (i'm 19)
stairway is cultural heritage for me!

[linckx]

yup,

I'm 20 and feel the same way about it...

robin

[linckx]

I think he's just asking if we agree UTB is as good as STH?

doesn't it?

robin

[VitiminJ]

BlueGel, sometimes you have a hard time keeping up. Let me elaborate:

My parents (hippies) listened to all the great rock of their era (generation), I come in to this world in '78 and grow up listening to all the great music of the 60's & 70's. Late 80's early 90's VitiminJ starts listening to RHCP. Under the Bridge comes along and has an impact so huge that even to this day, some 10+ years later that if you were flipping thru stations on the radio and you heard a note of UTB you know in an instant what song it was and what the next word was going to be. Some may even compare this to another great song Stairway to Heaven. Which brings me to my original question and statement, I think UTB is the STH of our / my generation. Does anyone agree? Generations in this context refers to music and what we listen opposed to what our parents listened to. Another generation of music is the one we are currently in the teen rock band era. So I hope this clears things up for you. Also don't take this the wrong way I know there are many barriers between us being from different countries and all so if I sound like a jerk I don't mean to. And Robin you are correct that is basically what I was asking. :)

[linckx]

well, I think so :D

you know what's funny? 'tribute to the best song in the world' from tenacious D, has a version where STH is mixed into, like saying... well... this is the one :D

but of course there's heavy concurrention from sultans of swing and bohemian rhapsody...

robin

[McGiver]

always reminds me of a scene in wayne's world!

he's got 5000 dollars and wants to buy really expensive guitar!
the guy of the shop takes it out, and wayne starts to play stairway! The other guy gets angry and stops him playing! wayne asks why and the dude shows him a sign on the wall which says: NO STAIRWAY!

not funny? :o i like it

[McGiver]

EDit: sorry , doubleposting

[linckx]

yeah that was a great scene :D

in the musicstore my brother works everyone hates 'sweet home alabama' :D

robin

[McGiver]

haha! poor brother! compassion for him :(

sweet home alabama:D :D :D

[linckx]

happy 100th post on your next post mcGiver! :D

robin

[McGiver]

wow 755 replies on this thread!
do you think we will make the 1000?

[VitiminJ]

I Love Skynard, they're coming back around this. I'm gonna go see them, I go everyyear. They're great.

My Summer Concert List.

Red Hot Chili Peppers
Lynard Skynard
Radiohead

Those are the three I'll be seeing this summer.

Anyone else have any plans to see someone?

[linckx]

not even a doubt ;)

robin

[McGiver]

thx :) , but nothing to celebrate! celebrate, if i make it to get the 200th today too!

[linckx]

http://www.rockwerchter.be

I'm going to see sooo much big artists in two weeks...
after that U2, linkin park and evanescence are still on my to-see-list, but it's really closing in now :D



robin

[VitiminJ]

Holy Crap thats a lot of bands. How much was that ticket? Do you camp out there? Man I wish they did something like that around here.

[McGiver]

you know german rock im park (http://www.rock-im-park.com)?

[linckx]

ticket was 108 euros ...
plus 14 for camping (4 days)

and you must count that being there, eating and drinking will again cost me 125 euros...

on the other hand, go see metallica, moby, rem and colplay separately and you spend more than 122 euro's on entrance...

I'm a festival-addict so I don't mind paying big money, as long as they give me big shows...

last year we had RHCP, rammstein, and many other big bands...

but this edition overclasses all it's predecessors...

robin

[linckx]

rock im park is great!
similar bands like with us, but more classy rockbands like deftones and evanescence... and placebo!

make sure you go there!

robin

I need to hang w/ you at these festivals since you have a lot of experience!

The only concert I'm going to this summer is the christina A. and Justin T. concert on Aug. 8
Hoping she'll get dirrty for me that day!

[McGiver]

I'll be hanging around there ;)
end of summer, little more alternative, and not many names known:

6 or 7 stages, constantly music in several styles...
used to be my preferred festival by far, but werchter is closing in fast...

you're welcome anytime :D
robin

[McGiver]

no real concerts in your area?

[McGiver]

@ linckx:
sounds loud, sounds good!

[McGiver]

foo fighters, PENNYWISE, mogwai...
soo cool!

[linckx]

yeah...

saw korn there last year... you wouldn't have want to be in my neighbourhood then... was reacting all my agression of by headbanging and moshpitting... was really really great.

And then the next gig was underworld... then I danced my leftovers off... soooooo great evening...

robin

[McGiver]

hmm, but normally i prefer middle size gigs!
the coolest one was an event called Pankraz one year ago in würzburg, where for example emil bulls played!

I could not sit, stand or lean against a wall for about 3 days, because i "poged" (do not know how it is called in english: if fans jump together against their shoulders!) and becouse of stagediving (hit the floor once with full speed because 3 ideots were too stupid to catch me)

[linckx]

hit the floor once with full speed because 3 ideots were too stupid to catch me

been there, done that, got 3 beers of the three who didn't see me coming :D

robin

[McGiver]

:D

-> how it happened: we were there with a group of 3! climbed the stage, and one of us jumped too far left! guess who

[VitiminJ]

See that crap happens in the states but they don't buy you a beer to make up for it.

108 euros thats freaking cheap for all those bands. When Radiohead comes to my town the tickets will probably be around $50 (US Dollars) which is 46 euros. My point you get to see all those bands for a little more then double that. Thanks freaky great. If that same venu came to the states they would charge $300 a ticket easily.

[McGiver]

agree with VJ->108euro is not too expensive!
hmm, i think the fact, that you've got much stronger laws in regard of alcohol makes concersts less funny!

[linckx]

auch...

on the other hand:

do you remember woodstock 99?
man I would have given money to be there, even though stupid youth started raping girls etc...

musically it was the top of the world then... all of them...
in one weekend...

robin

btw mcgiver, watch out for the left ;)

[linckx]

i think the fact, that you've got much stronger laws in regard of alcohol makes concersts less funny

what laws?
every year there are several people who need to be evacuated with an alcohol-poisoning...
and 60 percent of the people is smoking weed there...

no-one gives a damn...
there are no brakes... but belgian people luckily are 'free' all the time so they don't need to go do too crazy stuff...

robin

[linckx]

what do you mean, hiding... me?


if you don't have a clue what this is all about: (http://www.actionscript.org/forums/showthread.php3?s=&postid=140126#post140126)

;)

robin

[McGiver]

in most states you need to be 21 to consume alc!
in germany or belgium there's no problem about it!
the first time i got drunk was with about 13! and it was very...edukative!

-->reason to live in belgium:D

[McGiver]

oh, damn! aah, she forced me to tell her

[linckx]

yup, but then again,

people in the states get to drive cars when they're 16...
that we don't have, you must be 17 and 9 months...

but alcohol is a good thing when used in a decent way...
still searching that way ;)

robin

[McGiver]

well the driving license is definitely an advance, but the prohebition for all younger than 21 is something ideotic!

[linckx]

certainly when you compare the fact that they at 21 hardly can stand alcohol, but have been driving for over 4 years than makes them in my eyes so vulnerable for drunk driving...

if you see here, kids of 16 know the dangers of drinking, and start driving afterwards, it's a much bigger step to stupidity...

what I do like is that no-smoking thing in every café... that I love!

robin

[bluegel]

hey linckx - do some work will you.

go listen to Spunge: second rate

[McGiver]

yeah of course!
It's really stupid if you sit there and want to eat with the family/your girlfriend, smokers do destroy the athmosphere

[linckx]

hey linckx - do some work will you.

I am, believe me....

but not quite hard since I'm waiting for designs...

is it false, that i want to know?
what the hell are you talking about?
what work?

[linckx]

I'm just waiting for the designer to deliver me some designs that I have to make interactive ;)

robin

[VitiminJ]

Robin what company do you work for? Do they have a site? Can I see some of your work?

[McGiver]

ah! would like to do that too:eek:

[linckx]

sometimes...

designers aren't the easiest people to get along with :(

robin

[McGiver]

:D
if it was easy to design, don't you think ther would be more of this species! So those good few can afford to be strange

[linckx]

don't mind them to be strange...

but there has to be a continuous amount of respect for eachother.

sometimes I get treated like a king, other times I have to keep my hands of the trash because I'd make it dirty...

robin

[McGiver]

haha! time to look for a standard designer who does your design!

[linckx]

héhé, perhaps, on the other hand, I really really adore the things she makes... so there's no 'professional' problem between us.

ah well, I will survive ;)
robin

[McGiver]

hey, maybe the problem isn't that she is a designer, maybe the problem is, that your desiner is a she :D

[linckx]

a very dangerous statement when bluegel is reading with us...

but sorry bluegel, it might just be that... I don't respond very well on women when they're being stubburn...

it's a mars-venus-issue...

robin

[McGiver]

:D just a joke!
