I know that some of you have been dedicating your time-wasting efforts to Facebook<\/strong>. That’s cool. I have also been making some time to help this social networking site jump the shark. Everybody needs the chance to rub virtual elbows with “friends” you otherwise wouldn’t have made the effort to stay in touch with, as proven by the fact that before Facebook you had not been in touch with them for the past 5 to 10 years. <\/p>\n

I know, too, that there’s a desire to allow various “apps” into our web-interactive lives to enable us to share personal details with friends, such as our 5 Movies That Shaped My Breakfast Choice This Morning<\/strong> and our 5 Movies That We Thought About While Taking a Dump Later in the Afternoon<\/strong>. Some of the apps are pretty cool, allowing us to easily embed album cover or DVD box images into our lists. It’s not so easy to do things like that in the Halls of Rock, and beside, Mr. DogModic himself frowns on the posting of too many lists without supporting thoughts. He thinks we can do more than that. He thinks we should provide each other opportunities for disagreements, tangents, and the like. Shoot, this place doesn’t even allow us the option of clicking on a little “thumb’s up” icon. WTF?!?!<\/em><\/p>\n

Do not despair: I hear you, Facebook-inquisitive Townspeople! As focused and unwavering as you may think I am in encouraging us to meet the objectives of Rock Town Hall, I’m a bigger and baser man than that. I don’t want you wasting your hard-earned blow-off time on other sites when you could be here, not only rubbing virtual elbows with knowledgeable, interesting, humorous rock nerds but skinning<\/em> virtual knees and elbows as you dive for the loose balls of rock criticism! In this bigger and baser spirit, I offer you Rock Town Hall’s first quiz, the What Townsperson Are You?<\/em> quiz. Our apps are not yet as advanced as those you might have found so engaging on Facebook, but answer the following questions and within 24 hours of your submission our specially devised Rock Town Hall apps<\/strong> will spit out the answer you’ve been secretly dying to know!

1.<\/strong> If a new friend had REM’s Lifes Rich Pageant<\/em> sitting among a stack of records in front of the stereo the first time you went to his or her place you would:<\/p>\n

\nb) Immediately ask to see a copy of the original 45 of “Radio Free Europe,” if only to brag that you<\/em> own it.
\nc) See an opportunity to start talking about 10,000 Maniacs.
\nd) Make sure to give your friend shit about this for eternity, or at least until the time when said friend finally admits to having owned that record in the budding days of your friendship.<\/p>\n
