Do they want it to get canned?

See: Firefly.

A brilliant show that got shafted mercilessly by shifting time schedules and ultimately got cancelled because people just didn't know when it was supposed to air.

Firefly's other issue was that every episode was aired out of order. While there wasn't an overarcing plot just yet, everything was constantly re-introduced, shoe-horning in mandatory exposition.


And it's not fair.. why must they take revenge upon me for paying their salary? How is it my fault?

My neighbor has either decided to take up guitar.. or a weird electric keyboard thing... this is the first time I've ever heard it.. it's fading in and out like they're walking around, so I'm assuming guitar, but I can't be certain. Also.. I dunno if it's above me, or next to me...

I have two guitars.. but I've yet learned how to play them.. It sucks.

Yup, guitar. That's definitely an amp I hear.


Oh, this could be fun...

Reminds me I want to pick up the bass again. I'm tempted to do it now, but since it's almost 1 AM...

I need to just get up off my ass and get a damn tuner for my guitars so I can actually get into the habit of tuning them myself and then learning more. It's hard to learn when they're outta tune.

How long did you play bass?

Not too long, to be honest. I'd like to play guitar as well, but first bass. I've GOT that thing, so...

Makes sense then.

I've got an acoustic and electric, and I want to learn on the acoustic first.

It sounds now like they have a drum set as well.. what the hell?

I bought both off of a friend of mine who was very good with them, but had just ordered a new one and wasn't going to be using them. So I lucked out there..

It's like.. I heard a guitar earlier, and now it sounds like a heavy bass drum, or maybe just a bass indeed...

It's way too real, and not any song in particular, which makes me discount any kind of guitar hero or rock band at all... it sounds like they're actually trying to play on a real intrument but I have no clue what exactly.. it has to be the upstairs guys, because it keeps moving out over the living room from my room..

Maybe it's the people diagnolaly up...they had a huge stereo system at the beginning of august that drove us all nuts but disappeared by September...

Thank the gods I have never lived in a place where I have had to listen to talentless, deluded kids loudly play their instruments. Just...Thank Gods...

Once you hit a certain age, trying to learn the guitar just becomes sad.

That age is after you graduate college.

It trailed off after awhile.. I also apparently feel asleep so who knows. There's always noise around her, but that was the first I'd heard instruments involved.. Oh well..

and it looks like I have a few more years to learn then
