Mr. Kinsley

They must have been totally shitting their loincloths when they saw the helicopter. I can't even imagine what was going through their minds... other than, "Man! That thing will feed us for a month if we kill it! More arrows! More arrows!"

North Hills? Dang, we'll practically be neighbors! Sherman Oaks is only a few miles away. As for fun, I'm the wrong person to ask: married with 2 kids = logging on to VC for fun! Just check with the LA Times thursday entertainment guide, LA Weekly, Los Angeles Magazine, etc. for a head's up on upcoming events. There's always plenty cookin'! Just be prepared to go into Hollywood or the Westside to do it. The Valley is somewhat the bastard stepchild of the LA area. Don't expect the whole city to be or act one particular way, it's very fragmented and diverse. If you only look around North Hil

Just sit still! They'll come to you eventually if you stay in one spot! Huh huh. Huh. You said "JHole." Huh. Huh huh huh.

I'd have a lot more respect for McClellan if this info came out: a) Right after leaving his post Without making money off of it - sure he'd make $ for a feel-good book, but who'd buy a Yeah Bush book when his approval rating is around 30%? I have no doubt that he's on the money (no pun intended) with his assertions, it's just that he loses credibility doing it this way.

Really? Had no idea. If we're going by who lives longer in terms of their age at time of death, then I say Iggy. He's always looked kind of wiry and strangely fit, the kind of fitness that comes from finding a way to survive under trying circumstances. Keith is just damn lucky.

From CNN/TIME: If I were Bill even I'd be asking her to quit at this point.

Maybe Hillary is just too stubborn to drop out on her own and is trying to essentially piss people off enough so they'll quit voting for her. "Hmmm. What stupid, offensive, annoying thing could I say today that could help Obama finally end this thing? Oooo! I know! I'll allude to him getting offed! Phew! Now there's no way I can win. Of course, I thought that bit about the sniper fire in Bosnia would do the trick. Same with bringing up how white voters won't vote for Obama. But this ought to FINALLY put him over the top!"

Magnetic American flag decal I saw on a car today, which read: Just pretend everything's OK.

Not the "I've got a great idea for Lamrod's band name" thread I was expecting. Vibes nonetheless.

Seems like my pre-season prediction of a Tampa Bay wild-card spot was actually shooting too low!

Oh shit, I missed that! Too funny!

Even better was- Preference: Goatse (If you don't know what that is, do NOT do a web search! Trust me. You're better off not knowing!)

How about "Slow News Day"? I heard that phrase the other day and immediately thought of this thread. Also, not sure about what kind of music you play, but I just selected all the emoticons here on VC and deleted the : from the beginning when they appear as text. Some don't work at all, but some could be interesting. Maybe combine a couple. dontgetit cheekkiss realmad worship dancing thumbup stunned pirate mellow (mellow pirate?) shifty ohwell monkey (shifty monkey?) cheers unsure ninja blink (ninja blink?) yucky angry music (yucky angry music?) blush u

I will agree there. The lyrics are unfortunately obscured by all the other crappiness going on in the song, vocal and otherwise. I'm now going to have to go back and listen to it again to try and remember why I hated it so much!

OOooohh! So THAT'S where that is! They do this really cheesy commercial for the Lakers on the local Fox Sports channel, where there is a court set up on the stage there and Luke Walton, Jordan Farmar and Lamar Odom come rising up out of the stage/center court with their hands on their hips, looking "tough." The crowd is going crazy and the players just stand there. Lame. But cool setting!

Two complaints: 1- Track #6, Stink It Up or Suck It Down or whatever it's called, is possibly the most unlistenable piece of music I've ever heard in my life. I've tried to get all the way through it several times and it is just too painful every time I try. Why did that make the album and not Thanks I Get? 2- Leave Me Like You Found Me and Please Be Patient are too similar. They don't sound EXACTLY the same, and thematically they aren't EXACTLY the same, but they are too similar to both be on the same album. Having said that, I do like both songs, I was just confused by having them both on th

I stumbled upon this a few weeks ago and wrestled with whether or not to share with the rest of the class. But, after conferring with my favorite admin, we decided it is out there for all to see, but please tread there carefully. Having said all that, this bit (and the two follow-up pieces) are just about the funniest damn things I've ever seen in my life! Enjoy! ...and pray for Reynold.

Who were the other people? (Screen names please, I get all confused on real names.) I'm very jealous about all these great shows going on right now. There's no LA show in the que yet, and they're on such an incredible run right now I'd hate to miss out on it. C'mon down between SF and Ireland boys! You've got a few days... it'll be fun! I'll even have you over to my place for a BBQ in the backyard!

A really great musical based on the best-selling book of the same name.

I'm crying right now. That was awesome!

Which would be...?

The sad thing is, that took me waaaay too long to figure out what the censored word was.

Glad to see that there's apparantly a lot of water under that burned bridge.

Nuh-UHH!! Really?? Daaaaang. I wouldn't say she's hot, but she looks to be about 35ish. That does it! I'm switching teams!!
