I've been in boston in the fall. It's wonderful. Connecticut is almost as nice, so I'm happy here as well...
My university town in Connecticut plays classical music all the way down main street and around the big parking lots for the same reason...
Ok, I think it's time to finally get more crap done on my IRC bot that does random headlines & stuff, so if anyone can think of existing song/movie/book titles or actual newspaper headlines I can use as templates that'd actually be FUNNY, post em here. I prefer items that have at least 2, preferably 3, maybe more, places where I can insert random words of various categories. I have all the typical grammatical categories, plus countries, nationalities, cities, professions, famous people, and brand names, and I can make more if I find a really good reason to do so. I could also use templates for band names, but I can just make those up on my own because I don't generally use real band names as models anyway.
Funniest headline this bot has come up with so far: Impotent Man Dies While Searching For A Hot Dog.

In response to Message 1253 from Personality:
Fermat's Last Theorem was this:
The equation a^n + b^n = c^n has no integer solutions for n > 2.
It is called Fermat's Last Theorem because it was discovered after he died. He owned a copy of Arithmetica by Diophantus, and in the margin on one of the pages he wrote, "It is impossible to write a cube as a sum of two cubes, a fourth power as a sum of two fourth powers, and, in general, any power beyond the second as a sum of two similar powers. For this, I have discovered a truly wonderful proof, but the margin is too small to contain it."
Fermat lived from 1601 to 1665, and this theorem was not proven until the 1990's. It is now considered highly unlikely that he actually had the alleged proof.
