Mrs. Peel

I guess I'm one of the few who lost interest after Dookie, as soon as they started taking themselves so damn seriously. Give me Kerplunk any day. That's one of the best pop punk records ever.

Here's a little anecdote....when I worked for an airbrush paint company I used to talk to Jerry & Doyle's mother all the time. She owned a nail salon in Lodi, NJ and specialized in airbrushed nails. She ordered from me. I once told her I liked her sons' band. She couldn't believe I knew of them.

I have to admit though, I saw their FIRST comeback tour when it was everyone but Glenn, and they were freakin' awesome! The replacement singer sounded just like him and the rest of the band was original. Now I think it's just Jerry Only, plus Marky Ramone and Dez from Black Flag.

They just played in Hartford this week. Or more more accurately, that one guy from the Misfits played in Hartford this week with the guy from The Ramones and the guy from Black Flag. I heard they were awful. Now, the REAL Misfits? Yeah, I can get with that appreciation thread! 20 EYES IN MY HEAD!

It was great if you were familiar with the graphic novel. Like watching it come to life.

True dat.

I was thanking heaven above that there was a fire alarm in the middle of The Ring and I was able to get out of there without looking like a wuss. I had my eyes closed the entire time we were there.

I chose not to see My Life because I knew it would upset me too much.

It was disgusting and SO out of the realm of reality....and then to have a busload of Asian schoolgirls watching was beyond disturbing!

You must have been.

Last Man Standing. And although we didn't actually walk out of Crank, the first thing my husband said to me when the lights came on was "Sorry." I also would have walked out of The Village if one of our friends wasn't mildly enjoying it. When the lights came up on that one I said "Well that stunk" (I thought quietly) and the 10 or so people in the theater applauded me.

Oh, and I'm pretty sure Gillette still does animal testing, so Jorge, if you do go back to disposables, I've gotcha covered. You can rip your face open with Bic instead.

I'm going to have to submit this thread for market research. The bosses will be especially glad to hear the phrase "no name BICs".

I just learned around 75 new facts about Fred

I'll second that, Jen! Get well soon, Lou!!!!

Sue, I just realized we were talking about two different things. No, I haven't attempted the Flopside Pit Of 100 Trials yet. I thought you were referring to Chapter 6, battling 100 warriors to get to the king and the Pure Heart. I was so relieved to find they weren't serious! Did you do both Flipside and Flopside's 100 Trials? How about collecting the treasures using the maps you can buy? My first priority is to get through the main game and then go back in and do those extras....the 100 Trials, the minigames in the arcades..... There is so much more than the main goal!

How is that? It doesn't get very good reviews.

OK, I'll admit that I can't break the habit of saying "Fudg-icle" instead of "Fudgsicle". I think it's only because "Fudgsicle" is next to impossible to pronounce. Like "edited it".

Regarding the east coast reference, most of my cousins say "ant" but I have always said "aunt". I have two "auntie"s too. I guess even as a toddler correct pronunciation was important to me.

Caught you!!!

"Henri".

That's how I pronounce it.

I remember that guy. Corey something, I think. He was the "cool" tech nerd.

Wow, that look like it will be great.

Just heard one in the hall.... "on accident" UGH!
