  1. Cortez and The Killer? Whole Lotta Shakey Goin' On?
  2. I know how hard this is, having lost my wonderful mother last year. A sorrow that will lessen with time, but never completely go away. My condolences and prayers to the Tweedy clan.
  3. Send Bush your suggestions! I go back to Billy Wilder's One, Two, Three, where the East Germans made effective use of "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini." From Wikipedia: The song was featured in the 1961 Billy Wilder film comedy One, Two, Three
  4. This is a bit old, but I just read it. Ga. Republican says he supports "methods necessary" for detainees BEN EVANS Associated Press WASHINGTON - Georgia congressman Lynn Westmoreland backed away from comments he made suggesting that he supports torturing terrorism suspects, but said intelligence agencies should be given latitude to use "the methods necessary" to get information from detainees. On Tuesday, the Grantville Republican told a Douglas County Chamber of Commerce luncheon that he "voted for torture" and that "we need to get information out of these people the best way we can
  5. Warning: Watching this might make you gay.
  6. Sadies opened at Cleveland, which I liked because Heavy Trash was VERY LOUD. I'd rather hear the Sadies without my ears ringing.
  7. Get ye there! Sadies live! Toronto-based group comes to Schubas Saturday BY TIM SHELLBERG Times Correspondent What you hear on "In Concert: Vol. 1," the first live collection by the eclectic Toronto-based Sadies, is exactly what was onstage as the tape rolled to the ears of its drummer, Mike Belitsky. And that, to him, is what makes the collection so special. "There was no fancy footwork, no dubbing in audiences, like 'Kiss Alive' or 'Live at Budokan,'" he said, laughing. "You've got the crowd, you've got us, and you've got us, and that's it. And that's what pleases us so much abou
  8. ? Most of the options seem gender-neutral (I mean, who among us, male or female, wasn't into cheerleaders at some level?). Personally, I managed to balance sport and "other activities" fairly well - but that was the 70's, when "other activities" weren't nearly as strong as they are today.
  9. Not to toot my own horn, but since you asked: 100 butterfly, second place in south jersey high school championships, 1978 (damn, I was winning til the last 10 yards. I know, move on. Went to state, don't really wanna say how that went). I still hit the rec center pool and do a bunch of 50 flys - a great workout. And the softball thing, you're right. I was just trying to keep the chicks off my back.
  10. Opening riff of 2-14 always bring to mind the "Back in the old neighborhood" line in "Misunderstood." And the Mats' "Valentine," for some reason.
  11. I wasn't really won over until seeing them a second time, ripping the roof off the Parish in Austin in 03. They really put everything into their live show, and you feel it. And, let's face it, "I've been working like a dog, I should be sleeping like a log" ain't exactly Shakespeare.
  12. Maligned Director KOs His Critics By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) -- Tired of the criticism of his films, controversial German film director Uwe Boll took on four of his critics in a Vancouver boxing ring, and ended each bout with a knockout. The director of the vampire flick ''BloodRayne,'' based on a video game and starring Kristanna Loken and Ben Kingsley, issued a fight challenge to his critics several months ago. Fifteen responded. ''I like now the critics,'' Boll told a news conference after the fights on Saturday. ''Everybody who was in the ring showed
  13. When Clinton went after OBL during the Monica broohaha, I recall charges of "Wag the dog!" Alls I know is I wake up every day telling myself: "Thank God we don't have universal health coverage!"
