  1. Point against Aerosmith - I just looked for it on youtube but does anyone remember the Aerosmith parody song?

    Cause I'm crazy,

    Amazing,

    Cryin for you baby

    Both bands have interchangeable songs, especially late career Aerosmith. AC/DC's rock.

    Point AC/DC

    Plus AC/DC's only ballad is Ride On which is really just a great blues tune

    Point AC/DC

  2. I have to say that I am thoroughly against this idea, for some obvious and some not so obvious reasons.

    Contention 1: Alot of the "problems" in education have little to do with education and are largely to do with social issues that are above and beyond the scope of a school. Poverty, unstable homes, immigration issues all play a huge role in educational "success"

    Contention 2: What is a black school? Does it deal exclusively with black Canadians or African immigrants? Are they prepared for ESL students? Asian immigrants?

    Contention 3: This is a move which is going to be very hard to reverse if it fails and will create a vortex and host of problems for "regular" schools if it does not succeed.

    I think the TDSB really dropped the ball here.

  3. It was a rainy night

    When he came into sight,

    Standing by the road,

    No umbrella, no coat.

    So I pulled up alongside

    And I offered him a ride.

    He accepted with a smile,

    So we drove for a while.

    I didnt ask him his name,

    This lonely boy in the rain.

    Fate, tell me its right,

    Is this love at first sight?

    Please dont make it wrong,

    Just stay for the night.

    All I wanna do is make love to you

    Say you will

    You want me too

    All I wanna do is make love to you

    Ive got lovin arms to hold on to

    So we found this hotel,

    It was a place I knew well

    We made magic that night.

    Oh, he did everything right

    He brought the woman out of me,

    So many times, easily

    And in the morning when he woke all

    I left him was a note

    I told him

    I am the flower you are the seed

    We walked in the garden

    We planted a tree

    Dont try to find me,

    Please dont you dare

    Just live in my memory,

    Youll always be there

    All I wanna do is make love to you

    One night of love was all we knew

    All I wanna do is make love to you

    Ive got lovin arms to hold on to

    Oh, oooh, we made love

    Love like strangers

    All night long

    We made love

    Then it happened one day,

    We came round the same way

    You can imagine his surprise

    When he saw his own eyes

    I said please, please understand

    Im in love with another man

    And what he couldnt give me

    Was the one little thing that you can

    All I wanna do is make love to you

    One night of love was all we knew

    All I wanna do is make love to you

    Say you will, you want me too

    All night long

    All night long

    All night long

    All night long

    They steal every track. What a dream!

  7. [color:purple]I had no fun at this show.

    Thanks to all involved in the creation of my fun night from the cab ride to our dance posse to the planners of the afterparty and hosts of the after afterparty, Dave Lauzon, and of course WEEN!!!

    Great setlist, great vibes, great night!

  8. Paan, you can do it! Screw the "pros". Honestly, even if you don't have the experience, just someone to help you with the first room. There are a few tricks but it's sooo worth doing yourself (I've done my share on this place)

    Sorry, that was no help at all.
