  1. I just ended up watching this today and I am impressed. I have only seen them live in single performances on Conan and such. I was highly impressed.
  2. They better not be teasing us like they did when Kicking Television came out, or I'll, I'll....well I don't know what I'll do but I'm sure it will be very mean and involve pinching.
  3. I'm in the same boat that you are only mine wouldn't be Visa bills they would be divorce lawyer and alimony payments.
  4. I have a question, a couple of months ago a former colleague and I were talking about beer and I mentioned that I liked Guinness. He mentioned to me a drink that is Guinness and some sort of cider. It is something like Irish cider or Scottish cider. Does anybody have any clue what he is talking about? I was really in the mood for a Guinness this weekend and was in the store trying to figure out what it was he said so I could try it. I have been on the internet and and seen drinks that were just Guinness and regular cider but waht he was talking about was some sort of alcoholic cider.
  5. OK lets start it now - Who is going to be the next coach for the University of Michigan? Miles seems to be the popular choice, Harbaugh probably screwed himself with his comments, Mike Trgovac (Carolina Panthers D-Coordinator & ex-UM coach/alumni) has been mentioned, I'm sure Urban Meyers name will be mentioned at soem point. I have heard, Cincinnati's head coach, Brian Kelly's name mentioned. Personally, I would like to see them look at Jeff Tedford from Cal. He is a really good head coach in a bad situation at California. The only thing is that he doesn't have any ties to UM so I don't k
  6. You know it just dawned on me why Obama is so popular on this board. It never occurred to me to connect Wilco fans with Obama since Wilco is from Chicago and Obama is a senator for Illinois. I just like him because both he and Wilco were on Conan when he filmed in Chicago . No seriously, I do like Obama and if I were to vote now and he is the Dem. candidate, I would vote for him. I just am having problems believing that this country will elect either a Black or a female candidate at this point. I think that there are plenty of enlightened people who wouldn't care in the slightest but there are
  7. Because behind all of the facades that everybody puts up, about 93% of people on this earth need reassurance from other people to make themselves feel like they belong and that they are liked. At least that is what the teacher said when I took a Psychology class.
  8. Am I the only person who just flat out doesn't like the Rolling Stones?
  9. I think that is a conservative approach myself.
  10. I was assuming he had gotten a new one due to the condition of his old one; he isn't the easiest person on a guitar. The video I saw of him playing it was during Ottasite (Outtamind) in Spain so I would assume that it is just the normal one.
  11. About the only thing that could be more painful than the Michigan - OSU game is that if in the Monday press conference Lloyd Carr announces that he is actually staying. Not that Carr is a bad coach, I just think it is time for a change. I just hope it doesn't kill our recruiting this year because UM is pretty thin at spots and we definitely need some good players coming in.
  12. Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy Birthday.
  13. If only I weren't married and had 4 kids I might actually be able to afford this. On an entirely seperate note, I am trying to put together some money for an operation that my cat needs. The total will come to around 6,000 dollars. For the really good surgery where they will actually give the cat anesthetic it will be a little more expensive, around 8,500 dollars. Time is short so any help that the fine people of this board can offer would be greatly appreciated by not only me and my hopeful, young, sad, children but also by my cat, Bones. Thank you in advance.
  14. I read about the Lenny Strat in this months Guitar World but for some reason I just can't bring myself to buy a replica or even an artist signature model. They are just a too expensive and just generally don't have the features I care for. I have played an Eric Johnson sig Strat and it was very nice but once again, not nice enough to warrant the price. It plays comparable to an American made strat that you can get for a couple of hundred less. And can somebody please explain to me how in the fuck can the dip shit from Blink 182 and Angels and Airwaves get his own signature Gibson ES335? T
  15. I just got back from seeing Beowulf and it wasn't too bad of a flick. The first portion is all animation and it got kind of annoying. The animation itself was good but it human motion seemed to be a bit slow. Although I will say that some of the stuff they do would probably be difficult with real action. As the story goes on it incorporates more and more actual images and at times it goes in an out of the 2 styles pretty seamlessly.Thee were even a couple of times where it was hard to tell which style the actor was in. Once this happens the story gets a bit more interesting and doesn't drag so
  16. The men should be castrated. I have always tried to be understanding of other peoples cultures but somethings are just flat out asinine.
  17. Pete Rose should go in as a player but not as a manager.
  18. How many college credits is that again?
  19. Thank you. My wifey took me out to lunch at the local Applebees (I highly recommended the chocolate mouse shots). My daughter is out now buying me a "surprise" present with the money she got for babysitting her bus drivers hamsters for 2 weeks. Later tonight my stepsons and I are gonna go and see Beowulf. Good day. You like me, You really like me.
  20. You can always count on A-Man for the best random cultural references.
  21. I never knew that Paul did that song. I always thought it was one of those cheesy nameless 80's bands. On a small level I have lost a wee bit of respect for him. I love the movie but the song was horrible.
  22. Honestly without sounding too much like a homer Outtasite (Outtamind) is a pretty darn good pop song. It only comes in at 2:34 so I don't know if it is too short. Some others: Sick of Myself - Mathew Sweet Blitzkrieg Bop - The Ramones Also look at the Beatles catalog. I'm just spitballing here, but there might be some in there somewhere if you dig deep.
  23. I once answered all but 2 questions right during an episode of Rock and Roll Jeopardy, while is was doing a crossword puzzle. To this day my wife swears that had seen it previously. I could never be on normal Jeopardy though. All of my knowledge is of the useless variety.
  24. About the only name I am more sick of hearing besides A-Rod is Barry Bonds. I was praying that nobody would pick him up and he would fade away.
