Simple Randomness

Still Enjoying Lost

I have to say that I still feel that Lost is one of the best shows on TV, and it just keeps getting better and better.

I’m also glad that it has an official end time.  I can’t imagine how confusing this show would get if it just kept going and going.  I’m glad that they are finally giving some answers, but of course in the last episode they had a major cliffhanger.  Not a surprise of course, but still frustrating!!!

Any theories you want to share???

Where is Spring???

Ok, so this weather is starting to get really really weird.  One day it’s like 70 degrees and then the next we have snow.  Not cool!

I think my sister got hit the worst by this.  She told me that one day she was taking a nap in her back yard in the sun, the next day she was freezing.

I know it’s not just this way here in Utah, it seems like everyone is having some weird weather this year.  Or maybe this is normal and I just forget each year that this is how it goes.  I’m not sure honestly, but it really get’s annoying.  It’s like March can’t decide what season it wants to be in.

Make up your mind March!

My Thoughts on Playlist and Pandora

So I’ve gone back and forth with Playlist.com and Pandora.com for a while, and I can’t really in the end decide which one I like the best.  Pandora has it’s uses for playing things at random, Playlist let’s you choose the songs you want to play.  The only problem is that sometimes I get sick of the songs I have on my list, and don’t want to take the time to go find new songs to add!

I’ll probably go back and forth for a while, but here’s something that I’ve noticed about Pandora: it seems to get stuck in a repeat loop sometimes.  What I mean is that I sometimes go along rating songs and then it just plays the same songs that I’ve rated, nothing new.  I’ve also experimented with not rating anything at all, but it has the same problem there as well.  Isn’t the point of Pandora to give you new music to discover?

Have you used either or both of these services?  If you haven’t, you should check them out sometime.  They’re both great in their own right because you don’t have to store any music on your computer, just stream it online.

If you have used either one I’d love to hear your thoughts.  Which do you like better and why?

Major Snow Storms Hitting Everyone!

So what ever happened to the idea of global warming?  Not that I ever really believed in it anyway, but doesn’t the weather lately remind you of that dumb movie “The Day After Tomorrow”?

I don’t know about you but we just had 12 inches dumped on us over the last 36 hours or so.  Last night I got stuck once I got into my complex and had to have 3 guys help me push my car out.  Then I spent the next hour or so helping other people get unstuck or clearing out parking spaces.  It’s been crazy!

One thing for sure though is that it now feels a lot more like Christmas since we now have snow.  It will actually be a white Christmas!  It seems like most of the last couple of years have been brown Christmases, so this should be nice.

Be safe everyone!
