This little “photoshopping contest” we’re having on the BOL Flickr page is going just swimmingly. Every time I log on, there’s something new and hysterical. I think Tom will especially appreciate this most recent one (on your left).

Someone on the Buzz Out Loud Flickr group said they installed Front Row on a older Mac (meaning, not one of the more recent iMacs). When it first came out, I noticed a lot of people talking about doing this, but I never got around to it myself. Has anyone actually tried this? What were the results for the long term? Let me know and I’ll give it a try.

I was listening to Coverville today, and they’re doing a tribute to Tom Waits today. So I wanted to share the lyrics of one of his best songs, “I Don’t Wanna Grow Up.”

When I’m lyin’ in my bed at night
I don’t wanna grow up
Nothin’ ever seems to turn out right
I don’t wanna grow up
How do you move in a world of fog
That’s always changing things
Makes me wish that I could be a dog
When I see the price that you pay
I don’t wanna grow up
I don’t ever wanna be that way
I don’t wanna grow up

Seems like folks turn into things
That they’d never want
The only thing to live for
Is today…
I’m gonna put a hole in my TV set
I don’t wanna grow up
Open up the medicine chest
And I don’t wanna grow up
I don’t wanna have to shout it out
I don’t want my hair to fall out
I don’t wanna be filled with doubt
I don’t wanna be a good boy scout
I don’t wanna have to learn to count
I don’t wanna have the biggest amount
I don’t wanna grow up

Well when I see my parents fight
I don’t wanna grow up
They all go out and drinking all night
And I don’t wanna grow up
I’d rather stay here in my room
Nothin’ out there but sad and gloom
I don’t wanna live in a big old Tomb
On Grand Street

When I see the 5 o’clock news
I don’t wanna grow up
Comb their hair and shine their shoes
I don’t wanna grow up
Stay around in my old hometown
I don’t wanna put no money down
I don’t wanna get me a big old loan
Work them fingers to the bone
I don’t wanna float a broom
Fall in love and get married then boom
How the hell did I get here so soon
I don’t wanna grow up

So true.

Yay! Someone made a wiki entry for BOL. Now if only someone made a page for me… is it tacky to write your own wiki?
