Thank Goodness.

yeah, although she's been eating less today. she almost fell asleep at her desk, but who cares. we were slow. i'm not gonna rat anyone out for that. besides, when her phone did ring, she answered it.

 

[the tourist]

I have to confess that I have been thinking about the cute librarian a lot. Could knowing that she is out of reach be driving me on to like her even more?

It's possible. When I was in high school I was in love with a girl. She had no idea. I found out she was dating someone. It made me want her more. Then, it stopped very suddenly when I was at a party and heard them having sex.

Your signal's weak on my radar screen
How far out are you man?
I'm pretty far out
That's pretty far out, man!

do they smoke grass in space? or do they smoke astroturf?

You should have flicked ice at her.

quite possibly, this is a common phenomenon

You don't have iTunes?

I do, but songs I purchase on iTunes come in the protected format, and iTunes doesn't let me convert it to normal MP3.

 

[Varitek]

If I get a good MP3 converter, I'll send you some albums.

I also need to send out Springsteen's newest album when I get a chance.

Magic, is it? I think I just dl'd it.

What's Bowie's called?

 

[phillyfan26]

Which Bowie?

 

[phillyfan26]

And yes, Magic is his most recent one. I consider it one of his finest. Born to Run being the crown jewel.

Still need to upload the remastered Born to Run for Screwtape.

 

[Varitek]

I do, but songs I purchase on iTunes come in the protected format, and iTunes doesn't let me convert it to normal MP3.

Although the selection isn't quite as wide and it's not quite as one-click, amazon.com offers unprotected mp3s for .89-.99 cents

Burn it to a cd and re-import it. That's why I use amazon mp3. No drm. Or itunes plus. No drm on that, either.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

this guy's name is paul heretakis

 

[the tourist]

Amazon, for the most part, is much better. And it automatically adds the songs to your iTunes library.

 

[Varitek]

Which Bowie?

didn't you just say there was a new one?

 

[phillyfan26]

Burn it to a cd and re-import it. That's why I use amazon mp3. No drm. Or itunes plus. No drm on that, either.

That's a big project, re-importing all my tracks. I'm probably doing that this summer.

 

[phillyfan26]

No, new Bowie poll in B&C.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

that would've required me getting a drink. i've been thirsty all afternoon but too lazy to go to the break room.

anyway, it's time for me to leave (past time actually but i had to help someone) so i'll be back in a few

i use amazon, but what's itunes plus??

Damn it.

Ahh. I see. Well, for future reference, use amazon.

I'll be gone for sure when you return.

Does Amazon have a system like iTunes cards? Because I don't have a credit card and can't use Amazon.

 

[the tourist]

Oh shit, that's right. I bet there is. You should look into getting a debit card from your bank.

 

[Varitek]

No, new Bowie poll in B&C.

ok i was a little confused. as i didn't think they were still making music. but too lazy to wikipedia.

 

[phillyfan26]

My parents won't allow me a debit card. They try to keep me from using the bank since the money's main goal is college tuition.

 

[Varitek]

you can get amazon gift certificates and use those, i believe. i assume you use a parent's cc to stock up on money and pay them back? you should be able to do that on amazon.

 

[the tourist]

That sucks. It's too bad you can't have a seperate checking account, solely for buying music online.

 

[phillyfan26]

Yeah, Bowie's not made an album in five years, unfortunately.

Magic is a good album. Gypsy Biker and Long Walk Home are my two favorite tracks.

 

[Varitek]

btw peefan who's the dude in your sig? i feel like the answer will make me wanna so i'll just do it now.

 

[the tourist]

When do you turn 18, PFan? Make sure you get a debit card when you do. See, I rarely use mine, but for buying shit online.
