I'd think the only ones that are really close are bands like STP and Alice in Chains, who are both probably my two favorite bands not on PA.

You might be right about Mastodon, they do kinda get sort of the grungy stoner stuff from 90's era pseudo-metal bands.
Dunno about Brann Dailor or Danny Carey having a background in jazz, though.

^ nah thats probably right, but ive heard Danny mention Lenny White (a jazz drummer)  as one of he's influences, and Brann often mention Innervisions (by Stevie Wonder) and the Lamb Lies Down on Broadway (Phil Collins (a jazz drummer) probably heard of him Tongue ) as he's two major influences as a kid when he practised drums. he said he learnd every track from those two albums and playd them over and over and over...

^ you can actualy hear Phil's influence in Branns drumming and drum sound, Brann's famous snare drum work, are image reflections of Phil's rapid snare fills/rollsWink 
 
Phil Collins learnd he's fils from Dr Phil Sleepy
 
Matt Cameron of Soundgarden (and Pearl Jam) is said to never been to much of a rock fan as a kid, he was heavely into Jazz and progressive rock and playd only that until he was 15 and then discovered Kizz and other hard rock, Zeppelin and Sabbath,

Can I write a sh*tty paper in an hour? I think so, LET'S ROLL. Then we can see how much Chemistry I can learn in 3 hours. Too bad the majority of the test is memorizing rules...

Also, I cannot believe that the new header is getting so much positive feedback. Do people just want to be nice, or do they genuinely like ugly things?

My Finance quiz today kicked my ass. Apparently, knowing the terms and concepts and being able to apply them isn't enough for my professor. You have to know how to apply them to 100% of situations ever or else you probably won't pass the class. But I know I got either a 40% or 100%. She drops the lowest 2 quizzes, but I got a 50% on the second one and we have 4 more left, so I'd rather have to wait to do that again...

They are? Is there a thread somewhere that shows it's getting a lot of praise?

It's just an analyzation of Obama's 2004 DNC speech and I need some cites from my Communications textbook on terms. I could easily knock it out in 2 hours, but I only have one despite the huge latenes because I am a drooling idiot.
 
Also, story: this morning I was on campus at 6:30am because I left early to beat the traffic since I was up anyway, desperately attempting to get Circuits to make sense. I have a tendency to Patton-esque scream when I am alone. So I had forgotten this faculty guy was in his office down the hall and I went to the bathroom, and it's such a nice resonant space I do my AHHHG GURGUHGRGUH EEEEEEE for about 30 seconds while I'm going, and as I walk out he comes right up to me and says "Am I going to have to call the police?" You could have asked me nicely, f**ker, I know it's not normal but I only disrupted you for 30 seconds.

Pssh, David, what good are you to people if you can only help 90% of their problems?

The haters are clearly in the minority., so we'll probably have to live with it for another 3 years.

Seriously Henry, I really don't think that you should be the be all end all of new headers.  I very much doubt that there is a header out there that you wouldn't hate.
