The Internet

I love finding new ways to waste time on the internet. There's always email, and I can spend a good twenty minutes changing my Netflix queue around or looking at the snow reports from ski areas. I don't know what I would do without Google and Wikipedia for finding answers to random stuff.

But the true beauty of the internet is the craziness that people come up with. The latest one my man found was: Name Your Band

My personalized album creation (minus the actual music) worked out much better for me than that old gag about porn star names. By combining my first pet with my first street address I got Super Cat High Point. That just didn't cut it.
My band is rockin' though--

Smoky Pocket Gopher
"Dang Near Royalty"


Smoky Pocket Gopher actually sounds like something I would come up with for a band name. You know I'm all about cute rodents. I didn't cheat, either, and keep clicking around for funnier results. I would never have picked a quote from Jeff Foxworthy. Regardless, I see "Dang Near Royalty" as a alternative album, heavy on the bass, with a kickin' beat.

My man's band turned out pretty funny, too, although the dew drop art work is a bit much. Heavy metal, perhaps?
