Theme song for Seti - Meant in Humour [i]The Sound Of Silence ------- by Paul Simon Hello Darkness my old friend, I've come to talk with you a- gain, Because a vision soft- ly creeping left its seeds while I was sleeping and the vision that was planted in my brain, Sounds of Silence In restless dreams I walked alone Narrow streets of cobblestone, 'Neath the halo of a street lamp, I turned my collar to the cold and damp When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light That split the night And touched the sound of silence. And in the naked light I saw Ten thousand people, maybe more. People talking without speaking, People hearing without listening, People writing songs that voices never share And no one dared Disturb the sound of silence. "Fools" said I,"You do not know Silence like a cancer grows. Hear my words that I might teach you, Take my arms that I might reach you." But my words like silent raindrops fell, And echoed In the wells of silence And the people bowed and prayed To the neon god they made. And the sign flashed out its warning, In the words that it was forming. And the signs said, The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls And tenement halls. And whisper'd in the sounds of silence.[i] |

Another possible theme song: Another One Bites The Dust - Queen Steve walks warily down the street, with the brim pulled way down low Ain't no sound but the sound of his feet, machine guns ready to go Are you ready, Are you ready for this Are you hanging on the edge of your seat Out of the doorway the bullets rip To the sound of the beat Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust And another one gone, and another one gone Another one bites the dust Hey, I'm gonna get you too Another one bites the dust How do you think I'm going to get along, without you, when you're gone You took me for everything that I had, and kicked me out on my own Are you happy, are you satisfied How long can you stand the heat Out of the doorway the bullets rip To the sound of the beat Chorus Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust There are plenty of ways you can hurt a man And bring him to the ground You can beat him You can cheat him you can treat him bad and leave him When he's down But I'm ready, yes I'm ready for you I'm standing on my own two feet Out of the doorway the bullets rip repeating the sound of the beat BOINC problems - Drink DUFF Beer - No problems Gree-Greetings - H.S.

After 'obtaining' an mp3 copy I've put them all in a Seti playlist. So when Boinc acts up I can kick back, listen to the music and have a cold one. Ahhhh... Look forward to more additions from Seti's users... BOINC problems - Drink DUFF Beer - No problems Gree-Greetings - H.S. Boinc User (Duff Drinker) |

> How about some AC/DC for crying out loud...:) > Who Made Who? - AC/DC The video game says "play me" Face it on a level but it takes you every time on a one on one Feeling running down your spine Nothing gonna save your one last dime cause it owns you Through and through The databank knows my number Says I gotta pay cause I made the grade last year Feel it when I turn the screw Kicks you round the world, there ain't a thing that it can't do Do to you Chorus: Who made who, who made you? Who made who, ain't nobody told you? Who made who, who made you? If you made them and they made you Who picked up the bill, and who made who? (or who picked up the glue,...)(?) Who made who, who turned the screw? Satellites send me pictures Get it in the eye, Take it to the world (take it to the wire) Spinning like a dynamo Feel it going round and round Running out of chips, you got no line in an 8-bit town So don't look down, no Chorus: Who made who, who made you? Ain't nobody told you, who made who? |

Cause We're!... NO BALONEY,HOMOSAPIENS! We ain't phoney We're homosapiens Just cause you got more ears and eyes That just gives you more places to cry And acutely hear the moans and sighs Of the relatives of the people you disintegrated But don't you say we're easy prey cause buddy that's the day Your underestimation will defeat you But don't worry, we're civilized And we won't eat you Cause We're... NO BALONEY,HOMOSAPIENS We ain't phoney We're homosapiens We're black and white you're green and blue We're all right and so are you My bloods thick red you bleed black glue So let's not bleed at all Is that all right with you Cause We're ...NO BALONEY,HOMOSAPIENS We ain't phoney yes we're no baloney Homosapiens Alice Cooper I Refuse to hold myself responsible for any of my actions. si hoc legere scis nimium eruditionis habes |

I'd like to add "I'm Free" by the Who! "I'm free, and freedom tastes of reality" For the first time since 6/22, I have no systems attached to seti/boinc. The increased crunching times, and the deletion of WU's during upload, with no word from the devs finally did it.. Then I found that the other projects I was attached to had gained more credits than seti/boinc, even though they were given far less a share of the CPU.. (no, I'm not a credit counter, but do view this as a gauge of what work was recieved and used, and not lost...) I've only been with the others for a bit over a month, but there seems to be using the results! I'll keep watching and might be back..... |

Mike & the Mechanics Silent Running Take the children and yourself And hide out in the cellar By now the fighting will be close at hand Don't believe the church and state And everything they tell you Believe in me, I'm with the high command Can you hear me, can you hear me running? Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you? Can you hear me, can you hear me running? Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you? There's a gun and ammunition Just inside the doorway Use it only in emergency Better you should pray to God The Father and the Spirit Will guide you and protect from up here Can you hear me, can you hear me running? Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you? Can you hear me, can you hear me running? Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you? Swear allegiance to the flag Whatever flag they offer Never hint at what you really feel Teach the children quietly For some day sons and daughters Will rise up and fight while we stood still Can you hear me, can you hear me running? Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you? Can you hear me, can you hear me running? Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you? Can you hear me running (can you hear me calling you?) (Can you hear me) hear me calling you? (Can you hear me running) hear me running babe? (Can you hear me running) hear me running? Calling you, calling you |
