Fear Asphalt, End Truth, Make Back Love

You can find out a lot of interesting things from Jonathan Coulton. That’s where I ran across Wordle. So of course, I had to try it out myself (click for the big version – must enable Java applets in browser to view):

Wordle: Reign of Frogs

Following JoCo’s lead, I took the lyrics from our Reign of Frogs album A Case Of Mistaken Serenity, most of which were written by me, although some were from Greg and some from DJ Smallberries, and ran them through the processor to generate the Word Cloud above. I did take some liberties with the source material. For example, I deleted repeating choruses/phrases so as not to weight them too much. It didn’t much matter – words in the choruses sprang to the top anyway.

Hmmm, somebody should do this with Scott Miller lyrics…

Latre.

Pet Peeve Of The Day: Accidentally buying fresh cilantro, thinking it was parsley.
