We could never quite get a gig.
Edit: I was aware that it's 1024 Meg to a gig, but "a band called 1023 megabytes" doesn't have the same ring to it. Also doesn't getting the IT wrong make it more dad like?
We're good but we still haven't gotten a gig yet.
They're ok, but they haven't had any gigs yet
They decided to round up to a Towsend.
Just a little extra and it could be a grand stand!
Yeah, that makes sense, they don't have any gigs yet.
... No?
They're looking for a gig.
A man is driving down the road and breaks down near a monastery. He goes to the monastery, knocks on the door, and says, My car broke down. Do you think I could stay the night? The monks graciously accept him, feed him dinner, even fix his car. As the man tries to fall asleep, he hears a very strange sound. The next morning, he asks the monks what the sound was, but they say, We can't tell you. You're not a monk.
The man is disappointed but thanks them anyway and goes about his merry way. Some years later, The same man breaks down in front of the same monastery. The monks again accept him, feed him, and again fix his car. That night, he hears the same strange noise that he had heard years earlier. The next morning, he asks what it is, but the monks reply, We can't tell you. You're not a monk.
The man says, All right, all right. I'm dying to know.
If the only way I can find out what that sound was is to become a monk, how do I become a monk?
The monks reply, You must travel the earth and tell us how many blades of grass there are and the exact number of sand pebbles, when you find these numbers, you will become a monk. The man sets about his task. Some 54 years later, he returns and knocks on the door of the monastery.
He says, I have traveled the earth and have found what you have asked for. There are 145,236,284,232 blades of grass and 231,281,219,999,129,382 sand pebbles on the earth.
The monks reply, Congratulations. You are now a monk. We shall now show you the way to the sound.
The monks lead the man to a wooden door where the head monk says, The sound is right behind that door. The man reaches for the knob, but the door is locked.
He says, Real funny. May I have the key? The monks give him the key, and he opens the door. Behind the wooden door is another door made of stone.
The man demands the key to the stone door. The monks give him the key, and he opens it, only to find a door made of ruby. He demands another key from the monks, who provide it.
Behind that door is another door, this one made of sapphire, And so it went until the man had gone through doors of emerald, silver, topaz, and amethyst.
Finally, the monks say, This is the last key to the last door.
The man is relieved to know that he has finally reached to the end.
He unlocks the door, turns the knob, and behind that door he is amazed to find the source of that strange sound.
But he can't tell you what it is because you're not a monk.
Only 1,999 more words to go!!
Dissappointed, didnt see a single computer get fixed.
Then Iβd have $999,999.75.
I tell you: those guys at 1822 are the worst.
http://imgur.com/ksB8cST she had to replace her phone and lost all her contacts...she posted "I need numbers.I lost all of my contacts.", so I replied "can't you just wear your glasses?!"... she wasn't as amused by my joke as I was.
What should I do with the remaining $999,999.75?
Every one of them I ask says
999-9999
Not sure what I'd do with the other $299,999.75
I'm starting a band and we're calling it the 999 Megabytes... We're hoping to get a gig soon...
Heard it from a friend.
writes '999 Island' on the grocery list
Wife: What is this?
Me: Just get the closest thing you can find.
My mom's been in the hospital having a difficult recovery from surgery, and she's spent the last few weeks attached to various contraptions to drain the wound site. Dad sent an update today: "Mom's been released. No wound vac, no drains of any kind. Just an island dressing. π"
"Yay", I said. "That's 999 islands less than most people get!"
"I just joined a band called 999 Megabytes...
we haven't done a gig yet!"
Note I realize a gigabyte is actually 1024 megabytes.. but I let it slide.
Well they haven't gotten a gig yet...
Weβre good but we donβt have a gig yet!
We still haven't gotten a gig yet.
We haven't got a gig yet.
We still haven't gotten a gig.
But we don't have any gigs yet.
We haven't gotten a gig yet.
Then Iβd have $999,999.75.
