flyboy_foxI was planning to get hold of Linkin Park's new album "Minutes to Midnight", but the majority of reviews so far seem to indicate that the album is somewhat sub-par and strays too much from the formula their fans have enjoyed. "What I've Done", which is the only track I've heard so far, isn't bad. Not their greatest, but certainly listenable enough. However, apparently it's the best song on the album and the rest has been descrobed, more than once, as 'a mess'. Has anyone heard the rest of the album and could suggest to me whether it's worth getting a hold of? I loved Hybrid Theory and Meteora, and I'd like to give Minutes to Midnight a chance... but... if it's crap, I'd rather not waste money on it :P
Also, I hadn't been on Neopets in quite a while. I checked back the other day, and the ENTIRE SITE LAYOUT has been changed O_o; HALP! I can't find my way around anymore! ;_; I don't like it! Oh well, that's what I get for being so out of the loop ^^; (Also, I FINALLY noticed![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
insanepurin's friends request on there; I have no idea how long it's been there. Sorry Puri! I accepted, anyhow ^^ Yay and stuff).
In the news:
Tony Blair has finally given a date for his resignation as Britain's Prime Minister :P June 27th. About bloody time. He gave a nice little speech ending with:
"The British are special - the world knows it, in our innermost thoughts we know it. This is the greatest nation on earth."
Lib Dem leader Sir Campbell was not impressed and neither am I. Then again, I've never cared for speeches that conclude with 'we are better than everyone else, so hah!'. And come on, let's face it. The only thing the world knows about us is that we're a bunch of chavs, lager louts and football hooligans. And maybe that we drink tea. And that we have a Queen. But mostly that we're a nation of chavs, yeah.
Speaking of the Queen, though, George Dubya's '1776' gaffe was epic XD I'll say one thing for the man - he never fails to amuse.
Well, that's it from me for now! Time to go play Bust-A-Move. Again.Not that I'm addicted or anything.
(... "Animals" by Nickelback ALWAYS makes me think of Sonic, despite the lyrics. It has ATTITUDE. And guitar. I love this track ;_;)
