(Hi, I'm at LCA 2009!)

Okay, so I saw this meme on last.fm. I stick my media player on shuffle, and blog a line from the next 10 songs that appear. Then you, dear readers, guess which songs they came from and leave .

Actually, the number varies. One example had 50. That's ridiculous. Also, other versions say that it should always be the first line, but that's less fun.

Anyway, here goes!

1. "Think I'm just happy."
2. "But apparently I've alienated some."
3. "Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?"
4. "Is it heavier than air? Tell us, is the black box lying?"
5. "She just got a new job but she doubts it will last."
6. "Taste of white skin on red leather."
7. "Take off that stupid looking hat you wear."
8. "At least it was her mistake."
9. "When I hit my twenties, I ran out of steam."
10. "Come write me a letter and paste it on my refrigerator door."

I'll add the answers as they come in. Also, I admit that I skipped a bunch of tracks for being instrumental or for being music by people I know or something. =)

Also, I promise that this is the last meme for a while.

Edit

I've just noticed that, thanks to an earlier post, I'm now the first Google hit for man slay. Whoops.

It's probably worth mentioning that I have watched minimal Who.

Which Doctor (from Doctor Who) Are You?

You are the fifth Doctor! Probably the kindest and most outwardly agreeable, you're very well liked by all. You have an odd sense of what accesorization. You're also very sporty, and this reflects in your style of dress. Be wary of attempting to become a mentor figure. It might end badly.

Also, they started out so very well with the valid HTML that doesn't use tables and stuff, and then totally failed it with <center>.

You should carry a towel around with you on Thursday 25th May. I will be. :-)

Hmm, a handy meme from azureskies:

Put your date of birth, excluding the year, into Wikipedia and choose 3 events, 2 births and 1 death.

So from 12th August we have:

3 events

• 1953 — Nuclear testing: The Soviet atomic bomb project proceeded with the detonation of Joe 4, the first Soviet thermonuclear weapon.
• 1960 — Echo I, the first communications satellite, launched
• 1994 — The Woodstock '94 rock concert takes place.

2 births

• 1887 — Erwin Schrödinger, Austrian physicist, Nobel Prize laureate
• 1949 — Mark Knopfler, British guitarist

One death

• 1992 - John Cage, American composer

That was quite enjoyable. Also, shitloads of other stuff happened on my birthday, but nothing in 1986. Oh well.

Is putting my date of birth on the Global Circawebs a good idea?

(Oh, come on: Have you ever had government funded experiments done on you?

(Oh, and in passing, why does every one of these spit out such horrendous HTML? (Yes, I did manually massage this one into shape.))

You are Kaylee Frye (Ship Mechanic)

You are good at fixing things. You are usually cheerful. You appreciate being treated with delicacy and specialness.

Raised on a civilized planet, you are not used to coping with the situation you have landed yourself in &mdash though you seem to be adapting well enough to suggest robbing a hospital.

Which Firefly character are you?

From mrBen

Your Inner European is Irish!

Sprited and boisterous! You drink everyone under the table.

Who's your inner european?

I'm not really sure why I'm Irish. Probably because I said I hate the British. :-)
