  1. I just thought of this thread. Under 5 minutes ago I opened up my window, and I forgot that I did not have a screen in! In flies the biggest moth I have ever seen. Now normally I would just leave my door open and let the guy do his thing, but it is close to bedtime and I don't want him flying all over me. If I see him, he is DONE!
  2. My memory could be a bit foggy, but haven't the Jets beat the Pats at least 2 or 3 times over the past few years? I think espn is going a little bit overboard claiming that the Jets are now the big boys in the AFC East, its still week 2! As far as I am concerned, this division could go to anyone, even those 0-2 Phins! Now, open question to all of you, will ESPN call the Saints out for "running up the score"? I hope not, in pro football I think that is just silly talk, but they did it in 07 for the Pats...
  3. Lol this back and forth made my day I'm thinking about buying the boxset or all the dvds, I'd really like to re-watch this show with the directors commentary!
  4. I was cleaning my basement tonight, and I found an old keyboard Its an old guy, but it works. I think I'm going to give that a go for 6 months or so, learn some basics, and that probably go the MIDI route. I do some occasional guitar recording, so I have all of the necessary pieces for that. Now, would any keyboard that claims to have midi ability work as a controller, or should I get a higher quality newer model. I see several craiglist postings, but they all look like they are 10 or so years old.
  5. Was the Sunday release meant for Target stores only? I got my copy at Newbury comics which is anything but "Big Box" For the artwork, this album instantly made me think of... http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_QNq0NdpCuCQ/SZmig048EZI/AAAAAAAADds/z2HcVOPPlx8/s320/The+Offspring+-+Americana+(1998).jpg http://www.showmejoe.com/research/Offspring_AmericanaBack.jpg Through 2 listens I give the artwork a F and the album a B, bordering on a B+
  6. I have been playing guitar for several years now and I would like to make an instrument change. I love every aspect of playing guitar, but I figure learning a new instrument would never hurt! What concerns me is this, my price range would probably max out at around $200. Based on my limited knowledge of keyboards, could I even get a solid instrument with that range? I'm not looking for a toy that I can play around with, but more of an instrument to learn on. Musiciansfriend has some stuff, but I really don't know what is junk, what is a toy, and what is legit for my needs
  7. Me too, I always thought it was a moon with some strange toothy smile going on
  8. I liked what they showed, but there wasn't enough journalism plot! After season 2 and 4 I felt like I knew the ins and outs of the ports and school system, however after season 5 I felt like I barely got a glance at the Baltimore Sun's inner workings.
  9. Just finished the Wire, loved every second of it. For the longest time Lost was my favorite show, BUT the Wire has stolen away that #1 spot! I pretty much finished seasons 4 and 5 over the past 7 days, pretty intense TV watching but I couldn't get enough! I'm debating of changing my avatar from G.O.B. (my favorite comedic character) to Omar Little
  10. As far as I am concerned, "The Grateful Dead" is the best band name of all time
  11. How about a "More Like The Moon" Encore? Kamera (or Camera haha) Handshake Drugs Woodgrain Magazine Bob Dylan's Beard More Like The Moon
  12. Someone with design talent needs to make a few Wilco themed shirts that involve some sort of baseball themed, lyrical reference logo on the front, (like "The Theologians") & on the back have a band member's last name and an arbitrary jersey number
  13. CUTLER!!! So happy I'm not a Bears fans!
  14. Oh man, this Steelers Titans game has been fun to watch. I'm happy I have nothing riding on it, so back and forth. I hate most of the Steelers, but I feel awful for Hines Ward right now (just fumbled). Wonder how it'll end up....
  15. Every venue is a perfect venue for Wilco. This is a nice looking place though, reminds me of The Shubert
  16. I'm not sure what is more surprising, in the last 5 minutes I found out this story (with Tila Tequila? wtf?) Also, http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=4450767 Richard Seymour to the Raiders for their 2011 1st round pick. I wonder why the pats could not get this years first rounder?
  17. If Asante Samuel didn't have butterfingers you and me would definitely have another Super Bowl hat!
  18. First, your avatar is excellent. Where did you find it? 2nd, some recomendations, more of a list of what I've been digging lately Josh Ritter - Hello Starling The Black Keys - Rubber Factory Talib Kweli - Quality The Bad Plus - Prog Sigur Ros - Met Sut Ieyrum Vit Spilum Endalaust M Ward - Hold Time The Mountain Goats - The Sunset Tree Okkervil River - The Stage Names Radiohead - Kid A
  19. Viachicago is basically an episode of lost
  20. Just bumping as a reminder, draft tonight, 830, hope to see you all there!
  21. My 2 cents.... I'm Wide Awake, Fevers & Mirrors, Cassadaga, and Lifted are the only Bright Eyes worth owning, not to say the others are bad, but hey that's a good start. The Desparacidos album is good, along with both Mystic Valley Band albums (one is just titled Conor Oberst) In terms of EPs most are pretty good, but for the most part they are on the Fevers & Mirrors side of the spectrum, not the Mystic Valley Band/Cassadaga sound. IMO the Lua EP and Cassadaga EP are both A+
  22. Just wondering, we are having a random draft order correct? I don't care either way, just curious
