Nevermind the man behind the curtain -- a term in review.

This blog was initially conceived as my semester-long project for an experimental writing course in ... What else? Blogging. It's been an interesting ride and will continue to (maybe!) be one. Eventually this blog will undoubtably devolve(?) into a filing cabinet for the bits and pieces of things I've been working on.

I'm not one for surveys, but this one struck me as interesting because it combines music and the classic points in story-based entertainment (for lack of a better definition.)

So, here's how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool...
