Non public vote? How will I know who the synth cabal is?

 

It's a public vote.

 

 

Isn't it? :unsure:

 

It's showing up as a public vote on my screen.

 

:unsure:

 

Interesting, my phone browser doesn't show public polls anymore. There is a forum app that you can use. The link to it is at the bottom of the mobile page. I just use the mobile version of the website and it seems to work fine.

Disk98 always says that he can't see that on his phone too.

 

It is a public poll though. What would you like to know? I will gladly reveal to you the names. :)

 

Oddly, I used to be able to see public polls on my phone, but can't now. Regardless, thanks for the offer, but I'll just check from my computer.

 

That's odd. Are you using the app? I'm not having any problem.

 

I'm just using Safari. What app is there?

 

Are you using the mobile version of the website? There is a link to a forum app you can get for iPhone, but I'm not sure what type of phone you have.

 

iPhone, but it says that that app is no available in the US app store.

 

If you just use the mobile version of the website it works fine.

 

Mine is the opposite. It works if I don't use the mobile version of the site. But the normal version is very bad on an iPhone screen.

 

It is cumbersome, that's for sure. I almost always just keep it on the mobile version, even though some things are sacrificed. But it's not that big of a deal.

Dog Years rocks. It's a tongue in cheek fun song.

Sorry,   "Dog Years" all the way.   "Dog Years"   In a dog's life A year is really more like seven And all too soon a canine Will be chasing cars in doggie heaven   It seems to me As we make our own

There's a lyric line that Peart left out of "Anagram (For Mongo)":   "Our fans hear shit in Tai Shan"

Sorry,

 

"Dog Years" all the way.

 

"Dog Years"

 

In a dog's life

A year is really more like seven

And all too soon a canine

Will be chasing cars in doggie heaven

 

It seems to me

As we make our own few circles 'round the sun

We get it backwards

And our seven years go by like one

 

Dog years...It's the season of the itch

Dog years...With every scratch it reappears

 

In the dog days

People look to Sirius

Dogs cry for the moon

But these connections are mysterious

 

It seems to me

While it's true that every dog will have his day

When all the bones are buried

There is barely time to go outside and play

 

Dog years...It's the season of the itch

Dog years...With every scratch it reappears

Dog years...For every sad son of a bitch

Dog years...With his tail between his ears

 

I'd rather be a tortoise from Galapagos

Or a span of geological time

Than be living in these dog years

 

In a dog's brain

A constant buzz of low level static

One sniff at the hydrant

And the answer is automatic

 

It seems to me

As well make our own few circles 'round the block

We've lost our senses

For the higher level static of talk

 

...are those not some of the worst lyrics ever?

I chose Tai Shan. I liked some of the other songs like Superconductor, Face Up, Out Of The Cradle, and Bravest Face. Edited by Super25Smasher

Am I the only one who finds it amazing that out of all of the songs listed, someone would think Rivendell is the worst of them?

 

What is it about the song that generates the hate for it that I'm missing?

There are two votes for it now. With that steaming pile on the second half of that list it is pretty incredible I agree. Oh well... :huh:

I would probably faint from pure joy and disbelief... :codger:

I wonder if some people just find the song embarrassing? I have no problem with the music, certainly. It's not the most amazing piece of guitar music, but it is kind of sweet. Lee's singing in his "gentle" voice - it's not really cringe-inducing or anything like that. But maybe it's that fear of someone walking into the room and hearing these lines about "elven songs" and a place "where the dark lord cannot go." If you're confident in your love for fantasy, you probably won't be embarrassed, but . . . maybe there's a :blush: factor?

 

Also, the song's kind of long . . .

 

I was the kind of kid who was into The Lord of the Rings and thought this song was great. I worked out the whole thing on my guitar. I feel some fond nostalgia for it.
