Billy Squier is "Everybody Wants You" not "Some."

Plus, "You" is in C major and "Some" is in G major (actually the relative minors of each, but whatever).
I'm having a hard time hearing it in my head--which album was it on?

Women and Children First [edited woops]. It's the song in Better Off Dead (I think) where the hamburger comes to life and starts dancing when John Cusak was working at the fast food place.

Elite Torrents network shutdown. They had copies of the latest Star Wars available for download six hours before it was released. According to the article:

The message also said: "This site has been permanently shut down by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Individuals involved in the operation and use of the Elite Torrents network are under investigation for criminal copyright infringement."
Anybody been downloading lately?

Keep the bastards working the problem well into the night.

I can't stand inane IT lockdowns.

A few weeks ago, IT announced that "for internet security reasons, as well as system reliability, we are removing all browsers other than Internet Explorer" from work computers.

I can't download or install ANYTHING, and I used to be on the IT Security team. Frankly, I think it's a waste of resources to have IT techs wandering the building to install the latest version of flash or work out a simple bug that could easily be fixed by uninstalling and reinstalling a program, but my compliants fall on deaf ears.

Security, you know.

My old general practice firm was REALLY strong on cross-selling. The non-IP guys got big credit for bringing in IP. One business guy calls me in for a "big new potential client."

Guy had recorded every Star Trek and was selling copies of the collection on ebay. He's busted. He tells us he's living with his mom, and even her TVs were confiscated. He can't afford his own place.

How many reasons can you list for not taking the file?

One of the best movies of all time. But he loses at the end (granted he only had one ski) because he starts the race first and they finish virtually tied. That always bothered me.

Building Sick

Anyone else get motion sickness from the high-rise building swaying in the stiff breeze?
