DJP did Booster Tarantino for the record.
Ah, so he did. My bad.
More the chill type, perhaps spacey - Aphrodite Oceanus by The Wingless is the best example that I can give of this sort of thing. Something you'd listen to if you're lying on the beach looking at the stars.Hm...
Ailsean's Final Ecstacy
McVaffe's Yoshi's Lullaby
mp's Time Preserved~April Showers
mv's Time Chill
mv's Aquamarine (beautiful, chill-tastic, contemplative, and a little remorseful, one of my all-time faves)
Neil Banjamin's Far Away Memories
pixietricks' Prayer
spacepony's A Rose for Zelda
Vigilante's Liquid Metal
I have a few others from VGMix, but those would be unavailable at the moment.

Ah, thanks much to all for the myriad suggestions. Any more good ones out there? Working the nighttime angle possibly?
You mean nighttime kick back/chill, or nighttime party?

Tight.....

Heh, I just realized that the DS does not accommodate the old, big, GameBoy cartridges. Good this I still have all my old GameBoys.

Most game review sites have a bad habit of judging games (particularly Nintendo games) too harshly, especially as of recently.
I think there's an expectation anymore that every new game is supposed to break all new ground in the realm of gaming, somehow. I've heard it dozens of times, "if a new game doesn't display some revolution in the world of gaming, then it is sub-standard."

P2P clients.
The ign'rnt bastards!

How and when did this gross mistake begin to rear its head? I know that at one point I too thought that it was by SoaD. Whose fault is this?

Barret's Privateers, by Stan Rogers.
Oh, the year was 1778, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
A letter of marque come from the king,
To the scummiest vessel I'd ever seen,
CHORUS:
God damn them all!
I was told we'd cruise the seas for American gold
We'd fire no guns-shed no tears
Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett's Privateers.
Oh, Elcid Barrett cried the town, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
For twenty brave men all fishermen who
would make for him the Antelope's crew
(chorus)
The Antelope sloop was a sickening sight, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
She'd a list to the port and and her sails in rags
And the cook in scuppers with the staggers and the jags
(chorus)
On the King's birthday we put to sea, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
We were 91 days to Montego Bay
Pumping like madmen all the way
(chorus)
On the 96th day we sailed again, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
When a bloody great Yankee hove in sight
With our cracked four pounders we made to fight
(chorus)
The Yankee lay low down with gold, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
She was broad and fat and loose in the stays
But to catch her took the Antelope two whole days
(chorus)
Then at length we stood two cables away, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
Our cracked four pounders made an awful din
But with one fat ball the Yank stove us in
(chorus)
The Antelope shook and pitched on her side, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
Barrett was smashed like a bowl of eggs
And the Maintruck carried off both me legs
(chorus)
So here I lay in my 23rd year, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
It's been 6 years since we sailed away
And I just made Halifax yesterday
(chorus)
Capitan Kidd, by Great Big Sea
My name is Captain Kidd
As I sailed, as I sailed,
Oh my name is Captain Kidd as I sailed,
My name is Captain Kidd
And God's laws I did forbid,
And most wickedly I did as I sailed.
My father taught me well
To shun the gates of hell,
But against him I rebelled as I sailed,
He shoved a bible in my hand
But I left it in the sand
And I pulled away from land,
As I sailed
[Chorus]
I murdered William Moore
And I left him in his gore
Twenty leagues away from shore
As I sailed,
And being crueler still, the gunner I did kill
All his precious blood did spill,
As I sailed,
[Chorus]
I was sick and nigh to death,
And I vowed at every breath,
Oh to walk in wisdom's path,
As I sailed
But my repentance lasted not,
My vows I soon forgot,
Oh damnation is my lot,
As I sailed.
[Chorus]
To the execution dock
Lay my head upon the block,
Laws no more I'll mock as I sail,
So take warning here and heed
To shun bad company
Or you'll wind up just like me
As I sailed.
The Worst Pirate Song, by Ceann
If you’re a pirate I don’t believe it
I don’t believe that you are capable of such deeds
If you’re a pirate let’s see your wallet
and we will see if you are licensed for the seas
Are you capable of swinging from the riggings of a ship
Or wearing a black do-rag when it really ain’t that hip
I don’t think so,
I don’t think so, at all
CHORUS:
So where’s your eye patch
Where’s your peg leg
If you’re a pirate
Where’s your gun
Where’s your booty
Your sassy parrot
I can’t picture you on a bottle of cheap rum
‘Cause You’re the worst pirate,
the worst pirate in the world
You’re the worst pirate,
the worst pirate in the world
‘Cause you’re a girl
So all you females just put your swords down
I’m not a fool and I’m not amused
You’ve got no hook hand, no secret island
And pirates never go to the bathroom in twos
So if this isn’t some sort of cheap prank
Then tell me who exactly walks your plank
Not me, not me
No, nay, never, not me
CHORUS
A pirate vessel is not a bedroom
No walk-in closet, there’s no bidet
There’s no pink loofah hanging in the shower and
pirates don’t worry about what shoes they wear today
Because everyone knows that pirates just wear black
They raise a flag of skull and bones when they attack
Not birds and flowers, not birds and flowers, no way!

Spore DS confirmed.
Discuss.
YES! There is a god!

If you don't mind diversifying your music origins a bit, I'd recommend Run With Us, from Anime Remix. Not only does it have a suitable beat for working out or running, but the lyrics also work.

Personally, I probably wouldn't, then again, I am a zealot against all things DRM, and the very second a song hit the Zune (DRM encoded or not) it gets stuck DRM. But, if you're really wanting a high capacity mp3 player for cheap, then it is an option. Me? I'd just save up more money and get something else.

Like some have said, I'll switch when I get a new compy, that is, assuming I don't go Mac next.

About how long does each chapter take to play? How many are there in total?
-
-
I'm just glad that they're finally coming out with a normal PokéMon game for DS, none of this Ranger or Dungeon crap.

I call for a calendar on which there is a celebration for every day.
Seems today is National Handwriting Day.
National Handwriting Day
Observe John Hancock’s birthday by making an effort to promote and encourage legible handwriting.

Since I torrent just about everything, I laugh when I see services like this.
True dat.........
-
This sounds like radio on demand. Nothing really evil about it.
Perhaps, but I've just grown weary of such services that sound too good to be true.

Read closer...
Ruckus uses Microsoft’s Windows media technology, so songs can be played only on a user’s personal computer. For $4.99 a month, users can buy the right to transfer the songs to portable devices compatible with the Microsoft format, including those made by SanDisk and Creative.
But the music will not play on Microsoft’s Zune player or, more important, on the Apple iPod.
So first I have to download their program, then it already comes heavily laden with more of the same DRM crap we've seen a million times.
I wonder if one could re-encode the files?

Hey,
I just bought Trauma Center the other day and it's pretty fun. There's a lot of text that adds to the whole character development which is great since the writing is quality. But you could just as easily skip it all if you wanted to by pressing 'select' and go straight to the operations where most of them talk you through it (in the beginning at least).
But I have a little problem, I don't know if other people have trouble with this game or if it's my DS lite. Does anyone have any particular trouble with using the top 0.5 - 1 cm of their touch screen? It makes this one operation almost impossible. Usually, most games don't use the uppermost portion of the touchpad and I'm only now encountering it. =\
I haven't noticed any such problems with my DS. It does stand to reason, though, that sensitivity might be a bit less along the edges, as it would be naturally harder to depress the screen film as you got closer to the sides.

Actually, I found myself becoming more annoyed than anything, while listening.
