AskTheScrabbled: What "before your time" albums do you really love?
Just finished listening to Tim, by The Replacements, for the second time today. So Good! The album came out in ’84 and they broke up in ’91 so there was never really a chance for me to get into them. What “before your time” albums do you really love?

New Folk Punk
So I just got back from a trip to San Francisco to see Eddie (some of you know him), and he is on a folk punk kick right now.
MIT professor Dan Nocera believes he just solved the world's energy problems with new solar technology.
So, last year, I bought a bike...
….it’s a very nice Trek hybrid. Mind you, the last time I had been on a bike prior to getting on my new fancy hybrid, I was 12, and it was a cruiser.
Somehow, after learning about my recent purchase, a girl I row with convinced me to ride on her dad’s team for the MS 150. I’m always down for a good cause,
This was in September, and it seemed too far away to care, now it’s spring, and I’m starting to panic. I’ve not done more than 20 miles at a time, and frankly, the thought of pulling 75 miles a day, two days in a row scares the hell out of me (and my ass, natch).
That being said, is anyone on here a cyclist? Has anyone done the ride? Any tips?
70 Million by Hold Your Horses!
Attn: art nerds. Can you identify all of the paintings? I only knew maybe a 1/3, but could only name maybe seven or eight.
Lost has jumped the shark.
It has officially gotten so dumb that I don’t even care about the explanations anymore because the chances they will be satisfactory are slim to none. Despite following a relatively good episode last week, this episode was painful to watch. Of every character on the show, Ben, Jacob, and Evil Locke are the only people we’re left to be at all curious about; the only ones whose motives and goals are still unclear. At this point, it’s like watching a silly chess game where every piece but two are pawns and the players keep making up the rules as they go along.
I know it’s become almost passe for me to hate on this show every week, but come on. It’s just getting ridiculous. At this point, I’m genuinely watching just to get it over with.
This guy seems pretty pissed off about the Census.
I ask you, TheScrabbled: is he justified in his skepticism, or is this more Tea-Baggery? I mean, my understanding is that participation in the Census is optional, but Census data is used to determine federal and state funding, etc. Can you help me out?

Thanks, Scrabbled
I would just like to thank The Scrabbled for making me look stupid. I play Words with Friends (basically Scrabble) on the iPhone, and when people ask what I’m doing I always seem to say: “I’m playing Scrabbled.”
Scrabble-D. Past tense.
Thank you. That is all.

Earthquake in Chile

Charred Walls of the Damned
I’m not really into metal, but I listen to Howard Stern and they’ve been talking about this band a lot what with their association with Richard Christy. Any opinions from you legitimate metal heads?
Send Poop to Those You Love or Hate
different varieties of poop sent to the destination of your choice
Let's all list things that, if left alone, we could eat the entire standard-store-bought package/container of.
You know, if not for the guilt and self-loathing.
And we’re not talking things you’re capable of eating entire packages or containers of, but things you’re tempted — nay, compelled — to finish in a single sitting.
Daniel Shenton, President of the Flat-Earth Society and the nature of (dis)belief
Daniel Shenton believes that the earth is a flat disc surrounded by mountains to hold the water in. Yes, he actually believes this. Why? Because go look outside. Do you see any curvature? To wit, he feels “our senses tell us these things, and it would take an extraordinarily [sic] level of evidence to counteract those.” Every photo of earth, every space expedition, every piece of information we have on satellites and flight routes — all fakery.
And I’m left wondering… how does this happen? How are people capable of such self-deceit? And is it really possible to change their or anyone else’s minds about the things they believe?
