Yeah... been a really long time since I have been on here... but I have a huge midterm tomorrow that I have hardly studied for, so I thought it would be a good time to make a comeback!
So, I am addicted to MySpace... anybody else? I just moved from FL to just outside of DC and have found it's great way to keep in touch with folks from home and even meet some new ones in the area... even though I am weary of some of the people on MySpace 
I am at: http://www.myspace.com/sorrellovessoma
If you are on there and wanna catch up, please message and add! Mention that you are from here :)
Otherwise, in short... I moved in with my boyfriend, got a cat, finished undergrad, got a job a Full Sail (the college where Dirty Sloth went to), got into grad school, broke my foot (hence all my self-pity gimp jokes on my page), moved out from the apartment and the relationship, and I am not going to grad school for Forensic Psychology. Woohoo!
Hope you all are doing great And hope to hear from some of ya soon!

I really doubt Yahoo and MSN beat Google in visits.

As All-American Rejects tour the country, guitarist Nick Wheeler is constantly confronted by people who say they know him. "Kids you've never met before know your dog's name -- they know things my parents don't know," he says. The reason is MySpace.com, a social-networking site, where millions of young music fans go to listen to new tunes and find out more about their favorite bands. Wheeler is not complaining. "We're getting 30,000 people a day listening to our song on MySpace. It's blowing my mind."
Launched in 2003 with just seven employees, MySpace has become the fourth-highest-trafficked Web site (after Yahoo!, eBay and MSN), with 35 million members, and in July, Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. paid $580 million to acquire its parent company. On November 15th, MySpace Records, in partnership with Interscope, will release its first CD, a compilation featuring site faves Weezer, Dashboard Confessional and Fall Out Boy. The first band the label signed, rap-rockers Hollywood Undead, also appear on the disc. Their debut is expected in the spring.
Bands use the site in innovative ways: Foo Fighters offered a podcast on the making of their latest album, In Your Honor; Weezer and Nine Inch Nails have streamed new music before its release; Coldplay uploaded exclusive footage from their tour of Japan; and unsigned acts use it to reach fans and record labels. "Any way you do business in music has been affected by MySpace," says the company's president, Tom Anderson. "We hear from bands that have places to stay on tour because they meet people online. They're able to book venues, they're able to fill them. A&R are using it to find bands, MTV is using it to find people for reality shows, and the movie industry is using it to find bands for soundtracks."
Chris Carrabba of Dashboard Confessional uses MySpace to post music and communicate with fans. "It's the first place people go now," he says. "If they heard a Dashboard song they wouldn't go to my site to check it out, they'd go to MySpace. It's the world's most powerful marketing tool at the moment."

Well, I'm not sure if I have the authority to be doing this, but since I don't think Tim would mind, and all it could possibly do is bring more attention to his music, I thouht what the hell... and started a music page for him:

I put up Mercury Direct from the new cd Parallel Universe to listen to. |

Well, Let's not start sucking each others dicks just yet. Haha, sorry... That line from Pulp Fiction just came to me and I couldn't resist. 
No story really, just a simple man living in a not so simple world. Maybe there is something more here...

There are so many great quotes from that show it's hard for me to pick a fav.
Reno 911... that's another great show. Junior is hilarious! When they're in jail he says, "I got two words for ya... plumbin. That's right, if a terd can make it out of here then so can we." Haha... Fantastic! |

I checked out that site. This part: "Mmmmm, boy that Hennigans goes down smooth. And afterwords you don't even smell. That's right folks. I just had three shots of Hennigans and I don't smell. Imagine, you can walk around drunk all day. That's Hennigans, the no-smell, no-tell scotch." -Kramer
Brilliant! |

Sorrel, you can relax, he definitely doesn't know about this thread! I wouldn't want family members reading what I write on this message board, LOL! So let's keep it that way, OK? BTW, I don't think he would rule you out if he saw this thread.

I completely agree that TR needs a MySpace page. Let me know if I can help with that.
Pam, your nephew isn't aware of this thread correct? I think he'd cancel me out in a heart beat if he did.

TR should get myspace. one of my freinds band got a page and it has actually attracted alot of attention to his band and it brings more people to his shows.
I can't beleive how huge Myspace has gotten in this aspect, it toally has become a marketing tool. HUGE names, such as NIN even debuted their new album on myspace. Fiona Apple did the same. A lot of MAJOR artists are on myspace and I think it is a great way to target that 15-30 demographic. I know that Fluffy is probably waaaay to busy to do it though. Maybe it could be a job for the TR task force? |

Pam, you are awesome and make me feel like I haven’t missed a day at the TR home. I was reading your description of your nephew thinking “Hey! He sounds nice-- wait a minute! Pam is… she…she’s courting out her nephew!” HAHA! I love it…. In fact, I am quite ok with somebody else taking away the hard part. My last date-like experience ended horribly with a botched mention-turn-confession that he has a girlfriend… Literally “yeah, one time my girlfriend and I… uh I mean my ex… uh…” what swine!
This weekend is my relax and catch up weekend, so I would love to get the email ball rolling!

Wow Sorrel! Welcome back! Got some serious catching up to do with you! Hope your foot is better. My nephew lives in DC area, he's a personal trainer. He has a degree from UVA, worked in a company that went under, so he got a job as a bartender in DC, then became a personal trainer. He is an awesome guy, great looking, did I mention he's single, LOL? BTW he once biked all over Europe and does some marathons. He's also a vegetarian. Ok, hey, I know the match making thing sucks but ya can't blame me for trying! (email me) |
