Can someone please help me identify this tune? I uploaded a video with it playing, ignore the picture, I have a fleet in my pond!

The Who- Teenage Wasteland. One of their best tunes.

What can I do with a box of paper meant for a tractor-feed printer? (It's the kind that has the holes on the sides and is all attached)

Donate it to some charity that still uses those printers, or Freecyle.org and give it away, or give it to any charity that sells misc items to raise money.

It's not Teenage Wasteland, it's Baba O'Reilly.

 

[madviking]

Indeed it is Baba O'Reilly. I love correcting people on that fact.

 

[Disgustipated]

Wow, I never knew that. I'm a Who fan, but don't have any of their albums. Why have their albums when their best songs are always on the radio anyways. I don't ever remember hearing a DJ say it was called Baba O'Reilly.

The Who having to be overly complicated. *sigh* Just call it Teenage Wasteland and be done with it.

Baba O'Reilly it is!

Nah, Teenage Wasteland was a different song altogether, which shared some lyrics, but was none the less an altogether different song, so calling it "Baba O'Reilly" isn't being pedantic, it's just trying to not confuse people with different albums.

 

[bhsup]

Actually, it's Baba O'Riley. Not "O'Reilly". Just to be even more pedantic

Who usually wins in a bee vs. horsefly fight, the bee or the horsefly?

 

[GamezRule]

Whichever one bites first.

Question: There is a music video from the 1980s. The version posted on YouTube by the record label differs from the original, different shots and such. It's not a special version or anything. Why would this be?

 

[Cutlass]

They decided to change it. They could have had any number of reasons for doing that. I've seen one where they shortened the length of it, for example.

This summer I went for a very long bicycle trip. I am looking for other human powered viechles for another trip. I have thought of kayaks and skis. Any other suggestions?

Canoeing's always fun, especially if you can find a good bunch of people to do it with. I've always been a walking man myself, mind.

Inline skates.

In Microsoft Word, how so I set the default style to be 12 pt. Times New Roman rather then 11 pt. Calibri?

It's called a Data Matrix.
