Sweet Papa Crimbo

I'll make a confession. Due to social anxiety disorder and calustrophobia, I don't go to concerts anymore (that and hearing loss from the glory days of the 70's). I get excited when I see Wilco coming to the DFW area and always make all kinds of plans to go see the boys. But in my heart of hearts, I know I won't be leaving the safety of my home office. Does that make me any less of a fan? Do I get a mulligan for the fact that I have been on board since A.M.? I've procured boots, demos and outtakes...do I get a free pass for that?

Is it getting better Or do you feel the same Will it make it easier on you now You got someone to blame You say... One love One life When it's one need In the night One love We get to share it Leaves you baby if you Don't care for it Did I disappoint you Or leave a bad taste in your mouth You act like you never had love And you want me to go without Well it's... Too late Tonight To drag the past out into the light We're one, but we're not the same We get to Carry each other Carry each other One... Have you come here for forgiveness Have you come to raise the de

Never heard this REM version...where can I find it?

A great American classic as interpreted by Austin's The Gourds With so much drama in the l-b-c Its kinda hard bein snoop d-o-double-g But i, i somehow, some way Keep comin up with funky ass shit nearly every single day Can i, kick a little something for the gs And, make a few friends as I breeze through Two in the mornin and the partys still jumpin Cause my momma aint home I got bitches in the living room gettin it on And they aint leavin til six in the mornin So what you wanna do, I got a pocket full of rubbers and my homeboys do too So turn off the lights and close the doors But (but w

Welll that kinda kills my idea... (currently listening to the Gourds covering Gin and Juice)

Sometimes I feel so happy, Sometimes I feel so sad. Sometimes I feel so happy, But mostly you just make me mad. Baby, you just make me mad. Linger on, your pale blue eyes. Linger on, your pale blue eyes. Thought of you as my mountain top, Thought of you as my peak. Thought of you as everything, I've had but couldn't keep. I've had but couldn't keep. Linger on, your pale blue eyes. Linger on, your pale blue eyes. If I could make the world as pure and strange as what I see, I'd put you in the mirror, I put in front of me. I put in front of me. Linger on, your pale blue eyes. Linger on, you

The runway rushed up at him as he felt the wheels touch down He stood out on the blacktop and took a taxi into town He got out down on Main Street and went into a local bar He bought a drink and found a seat in a corner off the dark Well she called up her mama to make sure the kids were out of the house She checked herself out in the dining room mirror And undid an extra button on her blouse He felt her lying next to him, the clock said 4:00 am He was staring at the ceiling He couldn't move his hands Oh mama mama mama come quick I've got the shakes and I'm gonna be sick Throw your arms aroun

I've got no problems with this list.

Back in the day after Back to Back there would have a hit by pitch

Nice... I generally get a lift out of the jocularity around here, but a murder/suicide isn't a real good opportunity for a chuckle.

The Jin, Sun and Sayid saw it on the boat trip Scattershooting while considering things (plus it's always kinda slow the last hour at work...my stuff is always done well before deadline): The other night, I was running through things in my mind and came to a bit of an epiphany. I was thinking about the Movie Millenium (or rather, the short story on which this movie is based). Premise in a nutshell: Humans in the future have developed genetic and physical problems that endangers the future of the race. Science developes an ability to time travel. People who are passengers on airliners t

nevermind

Great...thanks.... You coulda put a warning not to be drinking a beverage when watching this clip. Now i have coke spewed all over my monitor. I laughed I laughed my ass off I rolled on the floor laughing my ass off I rolled on the floor laughing my ass off till I puked and wet my pants

Wow...Even their tossoff basic track takes are sublime. Do you think George was putting on for the camera? Good lord, but he was whipping George Martin's ass...

Filter's song was based on that incident: I wish I would've met you now it's a little late. what you could've taught me I could've saved some face they think that your early ending was all wrong for the most part they're right but look how they all got strong that's why I say hey man, nice shot what a good shot man. a man has gun hey man have fun nice shot now that the smoke's gone and the air is all clear those who were right there got a new kind of fear you'd fight and you were right but they were just to strong they'd stick it in your face and let you smell what they consider wrong. that'

It makes me ... weary. I wish I could remember when Bozos nutjobs (fixed it) like Limbaugh hijacked Conservatism.

Yeah...the 420 salute and the waldos... You tokers need to get another handle...4/20 has assumed even more horrible baggage today in Houston. Gunman kills hostage, self at Johnson Space Center 07:26 PM CDT on Friday, April 20, 2007 Associated Press HOUSTON

I saw that...I kept hoping he would shout "TURN THOSE FUCKING IMAGES OFF YOU IDIOTS!!!"

The gal whose brother punched him in the nose? That was his fiance whom he jilted the day before the wedding...That was in 1995 (remember the label on the wine bottles). He met Penny the day he got 'fired' from the abbey.

Just the normal noise around here bud Internet bravery

Scattershooting while ruminating on the greatness that is LOST... The references to Abraham, Mount Moriah and Jacob and Desmond refusing to sacrifice Charlie...Desmond is being tested, but by whom? Desmond's lady from the antique shop (you are not supposed to buy the ring Desmond) in the picture on the prior's desk (you had to look quick to see that one)...getting better and better here. I always had the impression the show was about Jack, Locke, Kate and Sawyer... But Desmond has been gifted and is being tested.... Here's something that keeps coming into my head: Remember Adam and

Ok...after reading the responses on this thread, I thought I'd try something new and novel: responding on topic. It is not limited to email; it is inherent in all written communications. Email might have cheapened written intersocial communication due to its immediacy and ease but the written word in incapable of conveying sarcasm, tone or, in reality ,irony. In our post modern word, we have taken for granted the immediacy that phone communication allows. Additionally, the tendency to feel a need to be constantly 'on' (i.e., witty, ironic, funny) has done nothing to help this. We all eithe

Ain't about my pistol Ain't about my boots Ain't about no northern drives Ain't about my southern roots Ain't about my guitars, ain't about my big old amps "It ain't rained in weeks, but the weather sure feels damp" Ain't about excuses or alibis Ain't about no cotton fields or cotton picking lies Ain't about the races, the crying shame To the fucking rich man all poor people look the same Don't get me wrong It just ain't right May not look strong, but I ain't afraid to fight If you want to live another day Stay out the way of the southern thing Ain't about no hatred better raise a glass I

I do love me some Bruce. The operatic, epic song was his hallmark for his first four or so records: Lost in the Flood Incident on 57th Street New York City Serenade Backstreets Jungleland Racing in the Streets Darkness on the Edge of Town ...I kinda miss the old Bruce.
