I AM ADDICTED
Thanks, Elizabeth . . . this website is seriously addicting.
And I seriously suck. Although I can name all 50 states in 1 minute, 5 seconds, here are my (pathetic) scores to beat on some other tests:
U.S. Capitals = 36/50
Presidents = 30/44
Countries = 62/195 . . . that one is just embarrassing

i'd buy it
1 - Go to "wikipedia." Hit “random”
or click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.
2 - Go to "Random quotations"
or click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.
3 - Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”
or click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
4 - Use Photoshop (or similar) to put it all together.
I like it! Try your own!
FYI - Album title comes from the quote "Silence is one of the hardest arguments to refute" - Josh Billings. As for Naked Jungle . . .
Naked Jungle, was a one-off television game show produced by the United Kingdom terrestrial TV station Channel 5 in 2000. In itself a fairly innocuous gameshow with an assault course format, it was controversial because its contestants were all nudists. The programme's presenter, Keith Chegwin, was also naked. The full-frontal scenes of genitalia (including Chegwin himself) caused a furore in the national media, especially in the Daily Mail, and the show also attracted criticism in the House of Commons[1]. No follow-up programmes were made.
I'm not going to lie . . . I'm incredibly intrigued . . .
