SR IV: This is the end, my only friend, the end.

My Accounting exam isn't even until Tuesday. *doesn't feel like studying until later*

I'm going to make my own series of prog quizzes on Facebook, Vic, so people can enter it and have a tournament against each other. You up for playing them? I'm working on the 1st one now, but I may not be able to do too many until Friday.

Some Tangerine Dream quizzies should be compulsory, btw.

I think what I'll do is give myself a week to make each quiz (or a certain time frame), and then people can take the quiz at any time within the specified time frame... I'll keep track of the scores on a note on FB. Should be pretty cool.

If you create the quiz, then play it yourself, then invite us all, a detailed tracking of our scores and the head-to-head results will be automatically created.

Yeah, on the top tab of each quiz there's "play more", "invite" then "friends". This is a page of statistics between those people in your contact list who have played at least one quiz (doesn't matter which, doesn't matter if the same as you did).

You just focus on doing those quizzes, and then you'll see how the game will flow.

I'm here, but working my ass off and listening to some killer tunes from The Decemberists.

I can't get enough of it.

But I grew up listening to Celtic rock music, so maybe it's me.

Yes.  Yes you do.

I'm very impressed with Hazards of Love.  I don't think it's quite as good as The Crane Wife, but it's a concept album, no doubt- full of repeated passages and it's like one long song.

I always get a Mark Knopfler vibe from the guitars in The Perfect Crime #2. The Island and Yankee Bayonet are probably my favourite tracks from the album now.

What that album does lack in "prog factor" ("The Island,"of course, is a notable exception), it makes up for with exceptional songwriting.
