Peeve

Know what I hate?

When radio stations claim that they're going to play music synchronized with fireworks. What's that even about?

Wait... who's shooting off fireworks at this time of year?!? Not like I like musical fireworks, but it seems like a pretty random rant to me. And Becca claimed to have to "go snowboarding" just so she didn't have to play foosball with me.. what's that ?!?

Kool 108, the home of good time and great oldies! They're doing fireworks for Winter Carnival.

It must be the Chinese New Year.
I think they play music with the fireworks to arouse a sense of emotion within. It's like when music is added to a movie. Your sight and sound senses are being used.

Yeah, but what pisses me off is that I don't think they can possibly be synchronized.

How would you even know if it was or wasn't synchronized?

After careful analysis, I believe I have a possible answer for you on this syncronized fireworks question.

If we break these words down, Kool 108's intentions are clear.

.."Syncronize" LL synchronus f. Gk sugkhronos (as syn-, khronos time)

Syn-"to boink like bunnies."
Notice I said "like", not "with". Historically, the Pope has been quite clear on the different levels of syn.....For example, "with the bunny" is considered a greater syn then "like a bunny", thus securing the term synimus maximus.......also called , the Russell Crowe.....But there are a whole range of "syns". and they should be taken on a case by case basis. So, "synimus maximus" is not to be confused with "synamon"....ei, the boinking of spicy rastafarians ...........or "synamin" the smallest of syns in the eyes of the church.....the boinking of little kids by priests .......but I digress).

Kronos-"time"- or "A totally whacked string quartet".

Ergo....
Kool 108 wants us to wait until such "TIME", that we hear the "Kronos String Quartet" being played on the radio, and then drop everything right where we are at that moment, and start "SYN" (boink) ing ..

The fireworks reference is merely a thinly diguised metaphor for the orgasm's that will be occurring.

Please let me know if there is anything more I can do to help clear up the confusion.

wow... I was going to post a comment about how I'll be juggling fire in the torchlight parade (part of the same festivities, I think), but that boinking thing just screwed me up completely. Maybe "Juggling fire" is code for something else too...

(BTW, I agree, the music never actually goes with the fireworks.)
