Enjoy with milk. EMPAC grad student Elia Nelson's lovingly illustrated navel-gazing proves brainiacism extends beyond the barriers of gender.

You. Do Hear. What I Hear. I Do.

The name of the site is How To Rockstar.

When it began, there was some conjecture on the subject, that our site's name should be How To be A Rockstar.

That's when I stepped forth, and explained to one and all that explaining how to be a rockstar would be impossible, that a person either does rockstarring or they do not.

"How does a person do rockstarring?" immediately asked one of our younger visionaries. He was promptly ignored. His question had answered the question for everyone present. That's what we are explaining. Surely, in only so many words, and mostly by examples given, and directions to information and resources to make the use of our skills sharper, more focused, and more refined.

As for ourselves, there is no mystery. Who we are is a loose and changing affiliation of a number of artists, teachers, performers, and learners. All of us are either famous, infamous, notorious - or a combination of these qualities - and our names are all unimportant.

Because, at this point in the great Here and Now of all things, anyone can change the entire world as long as they remain anonymous.

And besides performing, the main goal of all real rockstarring is to change the world. This is why we are here.

So we reach out to all fellow Rockstars, everyone of us who is doing it well all the time, and doing it in unison, agreement, and consensus, and put out this simple message at this time:

"publicly change the world together without a sound"

FileRip to download YouTube, Myspace Video, PutFile, SoundClick Mp3 Files, VidiLife, iFilm, Google Video, & Break Files

Obviously, it has been noticed many of our latest entries and their links have come courtesy of extended work-outs at Reddit. So be it.

Yet this in particular is something of noteworthy value, FileRip, a free video ripper service to grab hold of all the stuff all of us see and want for our own personal video files.

For instance, to grab that guest spot on VH1's Hogan Knows Best off the intarweb.

Test Your Ability To Hear Tones Mp3s (Teenager repellent )

The story of a "teenager repellent," in the form of a device which produces a loud frequency which only people under 20 can hear, and is indistinguishable to people above 20 has been reported for the past few months.

But here is one step further in this story. Here are Mp3's of the actual tones with which to test the validity of the story yourself.
