how's this work?

 vs.


i originally started writing a post today about my absolutely abysmal failure at finding either an apartment or a job.  24 more days and i have neither... but then i was saved by an email that popped up.  no, don't get excited, still nothing on the job/shelter front, but I did get a reminder email about a music tournament i am in.  super fast premise:  the goal is to determine the best song out of 263 songs submitted by the participants.  there will be 17 rounds, 5 pairings of songs battle each other and are whittled down ie: the strokes "last night" vs. flaming ips "do you realize?"  (i made that one up for example sake)  listen then give each song a numerical rating (ie i LOVE the strokes - 10 but the flaming lips are great too - 8) get it?  by the end, we will have a #1 song.  here are week 1's contenders:

Division B Play-In: International Players Anthem (UGK) vs. Angel (Sarah McLachlan)

Division C Play-In: I Hear The Bells (Mike Doughty) vs. Closing Time (Semisonic)
Division D Play-In: Title and Registration (Death Cab For Cutie) vs. Lua (Bright Eyes)
Division F Play-In: Careless Whisper (George Michael) vs. The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air (Will Smith)

so you vote by leaving a comment on the blog and people are super opinionated on their choices.  it's pretty great... although i maybe went on a mini-rant about all the heat bright eyes was taking.  jeesh.
