Here’s a silly game. Ask a stupid question for the next poster to answer with an album name. E.g. Me: How do you say Lynyrd Skynyrd? You: It’s Pronounced Leh-Nerd Skin-Nerd It doesn’t have to be exact, so don’t be pedantic. Me: Where does Steve Earle live? You: Copperhead Road in Guitar Town. Here you go. . . How would you rate Radiohead’s laptop? ---

I have a feeling this is what **Ludovic** was thinking of: > [@Ludovic](#): > > Why is it so difficult for me to get my carp to sing in D Minor?
