That's the funniest thing I've read in a very long time.
So...since the robots will be putting into Social security, can they take out from it? I don't pay (or get paid) for my Roomba, seems like a long-term employment issue for my poor little electronic person.

Yup, and tractors should pay taxes, too. And crane drivers should pay 500x tac, because they're putting that many Egyptian pyramid builders out of work.
Deal with change when changes occur. Trying to deal with changes beforehand is like trying to polka on quicksand.

Gojira - Silvera[^]
From Gojira's new album, Magma.
I've always kind of liked Gojira, but their new album just blew me away! 
Picking a particular song sound from the album was not easy, they're all good!
It's not exactly easy listening, not even for metalheads, but that's one of the things I like about it
The album has been pretty much on repeat since I first heard it last week

Sorry but the vid I just posted[^] on the Euro 2016 thread invalidates all other claimants to "Sound of the Week" Withdraw, sir, or I shall have satisfaction upon the duelling field!
I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

Indeed great, their best album I think
and ... yes, I am reading your book while listening,
(just checking what I don't know  ...)

That deserves a double upvote! 
How did you like my book?

Thanks, good to hear!

Here I expected it to be beer bottle opened

I have no idea what you're talking about... 
|

I just read the header and figured sound of the week would be some sort of noise that encapsulated the state of the week. IT doesn't matter, I'm not that funny 
|
|

Actually Sound of the Week is just my Song of the Week renamed.
Some people would question the definition of song almost weekly... 
|

Nah, it's just that I have a Master in Acoustics, so I connect sound with different things than just music. Sound to me is everything that you can hear (or not); noise, music etc.

Yes, to me too! That's exactly why I choose it as a new description for my original Song of the Week. I can now post songs, aria's, instrumentals, noise, pop, rock, classical, extreme brutal goregrind death metal, whatever, without getting the comments "that's not a song!" or even "that's not music!"

If the sound-track, and all the video-shots of the mutants in the final stages of rabies-induced mania posing with musical instruments were removed, I might enjoy this

Maybe if they added some sitar[^]?

Hi Sandor, I'm afraid one hangover the sixties left me with was an allergy to sitar music (the other allergic reactions include tie-dyed-tee-shirts, peace-
symbols, and the smell of ganja); yes, it's weird because I do enjoy the sounds of sarod, santur, sarangi.
I'm curious if you have seen Gotye and Kimbra's remarkable duet, "Somebody That You Used to Love" [^] ?
cheers, Bill

I wasn't in the sixties and I'm allergic to those too
BillWoodruff wrote: I'm curious if you have seen Gotye and Kimbra's remarkable duet, "Somebody That You Used to Love" [^] ?
Yes I have. It was a pretty big hit over here
And I now realize it's the same Kimbra as "Two Way Street[^]"

If Lady Gaga were not a hologram, and had a real voice, she might sound like Kimbra. If Taylor Swift were not an animation that escaped from a Japanese manga movie, she might sound like Kimbra.
Maybe.
