Happy Birthday! Have a blast...

I think it's that time again!

I listen to the hits and a few others that I have on some playlists,

Wilco's got hits?

Jun 11-14 Manchester, TN

Jun 22-25 Minneapolis, MN

That leaves SEVEN WHOLE DAYS to stop in Louisville or Cincy. Or Lexington (too much to ask?). Or Indy. Yeah, that'd work too.

I don't listen to it as often as I should. Every time I do, I forget how many great tunes it has.

Well put. Same here.

Happy B-Day A-Man! :badger

Cheers, indeed. Have cake!

Hope a trailer pops up on that site soon.

Well, it sounded like a frayt train, then alluvasudden we was way over there on that other site.

So, at what age do they actually get their heads out of their butts? Mine are almost 17, 15, and 13, and there are no signs of this happening anytime soon... good kids, but my goodness they're clue-free.

So what did he play on Letterman? How was it?

Discussion on the Jeopardy! Board re: Tues. Night Online test

 

I think I got 40 out of 50 correct. Maybe that will be good enought to get a call to another audition, but I'm not counting on it.

thanks for the link. I don't suppose 18 will get me a call. actually, 18 is better than I thought I did at the time.

I do better on the "logic" kinds of questions than the pure trivia / knowledge questions. The test tonight had very few of those. Must have been a dozen on authors...

Did we all have the same test? Mine started with something about a Hindu god, and went downhill from there. Also one about who was president in 1812...

I'm hopeful that "electricity" will not be on my list of things to live without this evening.

THAT did not go well... I feel like a total doofus. I suppose it would help if I read more.

Thanks for the bump. Tonight's the night for us EST folks. I'm psigned up and psyched. Hopefully the ice storm won't knock out the internet connection... that would be most unfortunate.

Kate has some friends at a large company facing what amounts to the following choice: elect to quit and receive 18 months of pay and benefits or wait to find out if your position is eliminated (and only get a 3 month payout if it is). Yikes. Hard choice for those who've been with the company for a long time. I wonder if they'll have half the company quit on them.

That's harsh. I've not heard of a company using that approach of "act now or else...". We're going through another round of cuts right now, probably the 4th or 5th in as many years. Salary freeze this year as well. Could be worse... But we don't offer a better package for early volunteers than we do for laid off folks. I don't see the wisdom in that. It's never an easy thing to manage, but I don't get that approach.

Have a really happy birthday !

And something's that not come up yet, who do we think hired the lawyers that went to Kate's house? I'm wavering between Ben wanting to assure Kate's return to the island and Sun's blaming Kate for Jin's "death". ???

Charlie. He's working on a custody thing. He was quite fond of the little tot. And he's not dead.

Some good news - might be old news, but I didn't see it in this thread.

Andrew Bird will be the musical guest on the Late Show with David Letterman on Tuesday, January 27th. The episode airs at 11:30 p.m. ET/PT on CBS

Interesting review. I bought this last night at BB and have not heard it all the way through yet.

Many thanks to everyone on the packaging heads-up. With great care I was able to remove both discs without inflicting damage... but I agree it's a pretty Crappy design on that.

Did Walt ever really leave? Or just scoot over to the other side of the island? I just don't remember if we actually saw him again in the flesh...

So if "everybody" has to get back to the island to prevent catastrophe, does Sun's baby also have to get back? Kid's in Korea now, right?

Also, I thought the "Libby says hi" line was classic. That and the "can't even make fire" line were nice to see that they aren't taking themselves too seriously to have a little cheese thrown in.

After further review, I've changed my mind. My favorite really, truly is :

Half of it's you, and half is me.
