As promised, this is the Boxing Day special edition of The Lion's Share Lyric Quiz.

The Lion's Share Lyric Quiz - December 2009
A week and a half ago at MFF, I watched the DJs spinning tunes for the dances, and for the hundredth time, asked myself if I could do that. Probably not.

Have you been to Wal Mart lately?
Here's a site I recently discovered as a result of some "forward"s sent to me by relatives - People of Wal Mart. It's another "fail blog" type site, and I probably won't become a regular visitor to the site. But the following entries in particular caught my eye ( Read more... ) -
The Lion's Share Lyric Quiz - October 2009
I recently had a listener ask why classify rock music into different genres. Why do we call it progressive rock, alternative rock, heavy metal, etc.? Rock is rock. Why not just leave it at that. The best reply I could come up with offhand was that it's only human nature to try to organize and categorize things, such as music genres. Otherwise ( Read more... ) -
