Thankfully with HDTVs it's not even much of an issue at all now. Even on a widescreen TV there's still bars if the film's ratio is 2.35:1, but they're much smaller. FYI, That's a scene from "October Sky" by the way. I don't know if I prefer it or not. Good movie

"Drinking by the lighthouse ... smoking on the pier ..." Lakeside Park?

Unrest in the forest, there is. Trouble with the trees, there is. For the maples want more sunlight. And their pleas the oaks ignore. With the maples the trouble. (and, quite convinced they are right), are they. Just too lofty, they say the oaks are. And they grab up all the light. But help their feelings, the oaks cannot. If they like the way, made, are they. And they wonder why the maples. Be happy in their shade, cannot. Trouble in the forest, there is. And fled, the creatures all have. As the maples scream 'oppression!' . And their heads the oaks just shake. So the maples formed a union. And demanded equal rights. Just too greedy, 'the oaks are. Make them give us light', we will. No more oak oppression, there now is. For they passed a noble law. And all kept equal, the trees are. By hatchet, axe and saw.

QUOTE (Ytse_Ham @ Jul 30 2008, 10:58 PM) YYZ --> Pure Awesomeness (what does YYZ mean anyway?) YYZ is the airport code to the airport in Toronto (the airport's actual name escapes me now ...) YYZ in Morse code is also the song's intro.

You can download some sort of free audio editing software (I suggest Audacity) and get rid of it yourself. Just import the song, select the narration part, and click "delete." Problem solved! Then, you'll have to export it as an mp3 file again, so you'll need to download something else, a plug-in I believe. Anyway, I agree, the narration is somewhat ... tedious. Not a bad song at all, but I usually just skip the narration while listening.

I can sleep, and is not posting on TRF at 3 AM.

Why is this thread so popular?

I would post mine, but I've been using so many different programs for music I don't even know. I had an iPod so I was using iTunes, but then I had to switch to some other mp3 player because I broke the iPod, so I was using Windows Media Player for awhile. I recently switched to Songbird because it looks like iTunes (which I like), but works with my mp3 player. The only problem with Songbird is that the last.fm plug-in is a bit screwy. But oh well. Haha, yeah so to make a long story short, if I were to post my top 25 here, it would be all Rush, Dream Theater, Triumph, and The Northern Pikes

Got a swim meet tomorrow ...

I'd say Muppets ( ) ... although I never really liked A Christmas Carol. I mean, the only reason Scrooge became a "good person" is because he feared his death. So, did he really have a change of heart, or was he just acting good to extend his time here on Earth? Also, the only reason people liked him was because he gave them stuff. I mean, if he were my cruel employer and he'd been mistreating me for as long as I've worked for him, and he just showed up at my house, wishing me a Merry Christmas and giving me a big turkey, I wouldn't just totally turn around and fall in love with him. I'd have to see some genuine care before I reacted positively to him. However, I haven't seen the movie in a while, so I might not be remembering stuff entirely correctly, or whatever. That's all my opinion, of course.

Yes! I got Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence, and it is AMAZING! I love this album! I think I like Octavarium better, but this is pretty sick too!

(that's me) guilty as charged. as a matter of fact, when called down to the guidance office for my goals of the year i said "to put a Rush reference in every project i had and anywhere else i can manage" He was like "maybe you should consider another goal. I thought to myself "I am Geddy Lee and I will sing what ever lyrics i want" quoting the south park bit before tom sawyer. I told my friend about this accurance and he said "You are such a Rush geek" I quickly replied "You bet I am!" Yeah, I do that a lot ... it's more of allusions than references, though, but whatever. I did it last year too. You know the lyrics to every Rush song written and can recite them to someone on the spot. You should be in bed, asleep, but instead you're posting on TRF

Distress

I'm definitely not tired and it is not freezing cold. Oh, and I should be on TRF, instead of working on my research paper for English.

I like The Sixth Sense, and I'm hoping M. Night does a good job with The Happening. The concept looks interesting, and I'll be disappointed to see a poor movie around such a cool idea.

Ohh ... tough, but Jacob's Ladder is my favorite.

Any suggestions for a new Dream Theater fan? I've only got Systematic Chaos and Octavarium (the latter is one of my all-time favorite albums) and I'm excited to get some more music in my Library. I read about Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence on Wikipedia, and it sounds like a good album. Opinions on this album?
