doktorfunk's definitions
Rock music with overtones of psychedelia. Generally blues based, like most rock, but often the most psychedelic aspects of this kind of music come from the juxtaposition of traditional rock sounds with outlandish ones (ie: When the Beatles used a sitar rather than a guitar).
The Psychedelic aspect can also come in the lyrics, though it is rare to see psychedelic lyrics without music that fits the part.
Popular techniques in this genre are to use exotic musical styles and warbly effects in order to simulate (or perhaps even STIMULATE) the effects of psychedelic drugs.
The definition of psychedelic rock is not set in stone, and therefore almost anything, even if it doesn't fit these criteria, can be included as long as it has that 'trippy' feel.

Get the juicymug. Teenage Wasteland is a song written by Pete Townshend in 1971 for his LifeHouse project. Since the project wasn't completed back then, Townshend used parts of this song in his work with The Who, and parts of 'Teenage Wasteland' eventually became another song, Baba O'Reilly.
Excerpt from Teenage Wasteland:
"Out here in the fields, I fight for my meals
I get my back into my living
I don't need to fight to prove I'm right
And I don't need to be forgiven
My kids ain't gonna break my heart
My greed ain't gonna spoil their part
This life just has to be a new one
I'm gonna tan underneath a new sun
Don't cry, don't raise your eye
It's only teenage wasteland"
"Out here in the fields, I fight for my meals

I don't need to fight to prove I'm right
And I don't need to be forgiven
My kids ain't gonna break my heart

This life just has to be a new one
I'm gonna tan underneath a new sun
Don't cry, don't raise your eye
It's only teenage wasteland"

When you are navigazing, you are paying more attention to the environment around you than to where you are actually going. This state of being is generally useful when you have time to kill or simply enjoy looking at the world around you.

Foxytunes controls many media players from within the browser window, meaning you don't have to switch over to your player in order to skip tracks, adjust volume etc.
Can be skinned to match your Firefox skin, but there are fewer skins for Foxytunes than for Firefox, so it doesn't always work.

Generally used when attempting to refer to the fact without directly stating it. Mostly used by people who don't feel secure in their use of the plant, and want to keep it on the down-low.

It is served chilled, often by ice in a specific shaker, then drained into the signature-style glass.
The ratio of the two liquids is 5:1 (traditionally, 2 and one half ounces of gin to half an ounce of vermouth) usually, though by changing this, a person can make the drink "drier" (more gin) or "wetter" (less gin) depending on his tastes.
Martinis can also be made with other alcoholic bases, the most common alternative to gin being vodka (often called a Vodka Martini, Vodkatini, or Kangaroo)
Other variations of the Martini centre around the inclusion of other alcohol or flavours in the drink.
