Why would someone get chosen to do a specific review anyway?

I know that I am safe from being kidnapped to the eclectic bunker. You won't be able to get any ransom for me. As matter of fact you'd probably have to pay my friends and family to take me back. |
Haha, same here.

Ahh, doesn't matter much then (at Mike).
I was originally tipped to do a promotional "do it first before the other prog sites get to it"review actually, for a Prog Metal band that I downloaded songs from iPool ( I wasn't allowed to say this before the album was released obviously), but that ended up falling through because not only did I not think the album was worth more than 3 stars, but because no one else that could review even listened to the album and all my other Prog Metal Team buddies were too lazy too. And well, PA didn't get the review in before anyone else like we hoped, so that kinda sucked.

Awesome. I'd love to get outside, but it's not really wintry weather and I'm sick. However, that does remind me... we set a new record high for today's date around here. I love how schizo this area's weather is. Today's high is 69F.

Mike, did you get an account there, being a Prog Reviewer once upon a time and all?

Lion music whatnow? Hey, I still review! One of my reviews is still on the front page!

I'm proud of my time spent, mostly, and I wouldn't say I've wasted it. What have I been doing? Hmm... let's see... schoolwork (tons of it during high school), video and computer games (much more when I was younger), music (collecting, listening, learning, composing), reading, spending time with my family and few friends... probably some other stuff that constitutes a smaller part of the whole. Overall I've used a decent amount of it for intellectual stimulation and nearly all of it for activities that have given me a higher understanding towards life and a higher satisfaction, without sacrificing rationality. I love playing tennis too, but I haven't in years because I don't have anyone to play with. You can't really play tennis by yourself.
