Hmm. I was thinking about this on the bus earlier.

Emmm-DEE-five's cal-CU-late-in' (7 syllables, stress on 2/5)
Shaaa-TWO-five-six a-CRANK-in' (7 syllables, but stress on 2/6)
Gee-PEE-yoos cal-CU-late-in' (7 syllables, stress 2/5, but awkward)


Sing along now, y'all...

probably someone[familar with something like LF, AL, Reason or ModPlug]can even write music for this -)
and/or publish karaoke file ;P

Told you it was an alpha version...

I thought it was SHA-256, not MD5

definitely #1.  clint eastwood every week...

gotta get that on dvd.  i wonder how well it holds up?

OTOH, The Blues Brothers holds up pretty damn well.

2, definitely 2.

Be fun to remix this video for bitcoins, there are a few good places to put in a few fun words and then add in some bitcoins flowing out..

Brilliant!!! 

LOL, excellent.

That reminds me, I must buy the Rawhide box set, if it exists

heh.  pretty good.

now all you need is a poll:

1.)  i know this song from the TV series.
2.)  i know this song from "The Blues Brothers" movie.
3.)  i know this song from the Dead Kennedys.

nice to see a proper trailing apostrophe, BTW...

Haha that's gold!!

The Ballad of the Bitcoin Miner (v0.1-alpha)

Hashin', hashin', hashin',
Hashin', hashin', hashin',
Hashin', hashin', hashin',
Hashin', hashin', hashin',
Bitcoin!
Hah! Hah!

Keep hashin', hashin', hashin',
Oh my box is thrashin',
Keep them miners hashin', Bitcoin.
Fifteen machines in tandem,
But it's so bloody random,
An' I got this achin' in my groin.
All the things I'm missin',
Good vittles, love, and kissin',
Will be waitin' for me in Des Moines

Ain't no fool, gigajoule,
Power tool, keep 'em cool.
Ain't no fool, gigajoule:
Bitcoin.
Mine 'em out, cash 'em in,
Join a pool, keep 'em cool,
Mine 'em out, cash 'em in:
Bitcoin!
Hah! Hah!

Hashin', hashin', hashin',
Though the market's crashin',
Keep them miners hashin', Bitcoin.
Just let me solve the next block,
And I'll go back to Bangkok.
I've had my fill of Des Moines.
Em dee-five's calculatin',
My true love will be waitin':
Waitin' for me with sirloin.

Ain't no fool, gigajoule,
Power tool, keep 'em cool.
Ain't no fool, gigajoule:
Bitcoin.
Mine 'em out, cash 'em in,
Join a pool, keep 'em cool,
Mine 'em out, cash 'em in:
Bitcoin!

(Hashin', hashin', hashin',)
(Hashin', hashin', hashin',)
Hah!
(Hashin', hashin', hashin',)
Hah!
(Hashin', hashin', hashin',)
Bitcoin.
Hah!
Bitcoin!
