From todays Democrat and Chronicle, in an article about the Backstreet Boys new greatest hits album:
“Despite selling more than 5 million copies domestically, the Backstreet Boys album Black and Blue was considered a commercial disappointment after the smash success of its predecessor, 1999’s 12-times-platinum Millennium.”
Hey, at least 7 million people pulled their head out of their ass and didn’t buy the next one!!! I’d still like to know how selling 5 million copies of any album by any artist is a disappointment! How the hell does that work??
PARTY AT 156 TONIGHT 9:30pm …. BE HERE!!!!!!

I got my Cake tickets, to the tune of $30 apiece, but hey, its gonna be worth it.. There isn’t a whole lot going on at this juncture, I have another hour till DataComm, I should be reading for it, but we all know that’s not going to happen.
Mary found this on the BoyHitsCar board, and it should give you a bit of a chuckle:
Random Slipknot Fact: Are you a poser? Quite possibly, by statistics. This can actually be backed up. Slipknot’s first CD went gold and is on it’s way to platinum. Iowa is quickly getting to gold status as well (Gold = 500,000 copies SOLD). Well… Slipknot has sold more T-shirts than CDs right now… what does that say about their fan base? Shirts are about $30 a piece, if not more, and CD’s are generally $15. Hmm… I smell POSERS!
To fill some space and make this a bit more entertaining, check out this information from a woodcarvers exhibit:
