I've got Chemical Beats and/or Song To The Siren for my ring tones.

hehehe, I wonder how many people here have Chems songs as ringtones. Good god we were such dorks!

This whole ringtone thing is a new concept for me. My last phone - I was on my mom's fam plan and the same phone for years - and I had a goofy and annoying Block Rockin' Beats ringtone. Since my mom was billed for the ringtone, I got an earful so Block Rockin was my only ringtone for years til I finally got the iphone - the phone which I've been lusting after for a year.

I was bummed that you couldn't really use music as ringtones with the iphone until I heard recently that now you could. I made Golden Path one of my ringtones (sort of), and Scale is my default. The stupid thing is, I'm stupid. :lol: I haven't gotten the hang of syncing my phone and the new iphone update was really lousy and thew me off. In my stupidity regarding syncing, I keep removing Golden Path when I want to add it to my list of ringtones... and when I successfully add Golden Path, my phone syncs and removes Scale.

It could be Mac being lame, but it's probably me. :P

Lets see, I got We are the night, Out of control, Come inside, and Chemical beats (my alarm!)

I'm thinking of getting the Iphone in 2 more months because my contract with T-mobile is done!

mine is machine gun by portishead

I think my ringtone currently is Leave Home, and my text reminder Block Rockin'. A while back, I had We Are The Night, Modern Midnight and DIA. ^^

The opening ceremony for the 2008 Olympics is like a Chemical Brothers concert on steroids.

That is all.

Yep. I saw those cool graphics in the center of the arena. I love those drums that had those lights in them and then they did that countdown, which was pretty wicked. The best pyro I've seen at a stadium (or nest!)

I'm staying home tonight but this ceremony is just off the hook!

Totally! Totally off the hook. :lol: The Beijing opening ceremonies are uttery spectacular! We dvr'd it in HD, and it's a keeper.

Yeah, I missed it earlier. Watching the rerun now on NBC as I type. Eye candy to the extreme.

Oh look, 'It's a small world'!

Diggin' the new United Commercial too...

Jesus--China put on a fucking spectacle.

::in stereotypical, racially-bigoted-intoned Chinese voice attempting English::

"Quick! Rets put on big showr so they don't lemember how many Tibetan we kill!"

I'm in Hong Kong just now, and it's such a big deal. It's everywhere. Watched the opening at an open air event, and people were going nuts when the Chinese team came in, and Pres Hu spoke.

They've spent something like US$2-3 bn on building the venues alone - not counting all the other infrastructure. Impressive. And the pressure on the native athletes to knock the US off the top of the medal table is incredible.

Listening to the Chinese TV coverage is mental - I must be too used to the reserved BBC coverage, but the commentators are cheering Chinese competitors, and even joined in the national anthem earlier when China won a gold!

Entertaining few weeks ahead...

I'm hoping that the execute a shitload of Tibetan protestor monks at the closing ceremony.

For the record, the opening ceremony synchs up with WATN

Well, having gone on a break from djing for a few months, I came back and blew apart the local club. But now, I realize how strange my set is.

To me, I feel that I need to change this around. But maybe its just me. Apparently my friend recorded the whole thing, so i'll try to get that up soon.

BTW - How the feck do I find the "post your music here prt deux" thread?

I'd love to hear your set. :)

This forum badly needs a more accessible search tool.

Here's the actual "your music" posting thread:

Hey thanks. I will try to get it from my friend later today.

Had to actually wake up earlier today to watch the US vs. China game.

King James on the highlight reel so far!

hehe - we all have Olympic fever and have watched hours of footage so far. We're watching weight lifting right now! These people could pick one of me up in each arm and comfortably throw me clear across a room. :lol:

There was an interview with a gymnastics coach on very very very early this morning - the same coach that made an appearance in the Elektrobank video. I was in bed by midnight, and my husband tried to stay up to see it but he ended up crashing before it was aired.

That must of been cool! I'll try and check the net for that vid! Saw the gymnastics last night and Michael Phelps get the gold!

Other great Chem songs for the floor gymnastics event:

-Out of Control (my fave)

-WATN

-Hoops

-UTI

Ah, fuck--the ups and the downs of life kill me sometimes.

Lost some money from a stupid, stupid mistake that this idiotic fucking bureaucratic state-run system, which shall remain nameless at the moment, made. It's basically a situation which has screwed me over and over again in the past few months.

Today, however, things seemed to take a turn for the better. I won the office baby pool, which consists of betting on when pregnant staff-members will give birth. Forty bucks, not bad. It's not much compared to what I'd already lost, but hey, I'll take it. ;-)

And only TWO MORE WEEKS UNTIL MY TRIP!!! :) :) :)

Geez, Pooter don't scare me like that again. Your post started out so doom & gloom, that I thought it was going to end with you saying you weren't going to make it to Olympia.

We need you there as our N. American embassador!
