  1. hahahaha. Ya; that's pretty close to an obscene-post on this board.
  2. This is getting very odd, for me. I use 3 out of 6 of the words up there, regularly; both in writing and orally. (No wonder no one seems to understand what the hell I'm talking about half the time.)
  3. My favourite (and quite inexpensive) restaurant in Vancouver is "Baru" in Dunbar. Peruvian food. Go there! If you want 24-hour vegetarian food, then obviously the Naam (but it will likely take an hour to get served, and a hippy might drop it all in your lap while serving you, but that's all part of the charm.) Other than that, most of what I'd really tell you to do is north of Vancouver in Porteau Cove, Squamish, and Whistler, and the rest of BC. There's tonnes to do in Vancouver, but it's mostly city-type stuff, so the same as most other places. It's a great city, and I love it, but most of what makes it really special (in my opinion) is what surrounds it. You'll have a great time. (I believe Ween is playing there this week, too, in a beautiful theatre.)
  4. 326 - Lyrical Oddities: Songs With Rarely Used Or Unusual Words (give the word) 1. viperHouse - Swag ("Hegemony") 2. Zappa - Absolutely Free ("Discorporate") 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.
  5. I don't think the song has to reference a time, like a number on the clock, or else my entry doesn't pass. In any event, you're right. The song has to reference a specific time, so really this theme doesn't even require anything about time to be in the title; as long as the lyrics reference a specific time. I'm wrong. You're right. Your entry's good.
  6. 325 - Songs referencing specific times 1. Bruce Cockburn - Mighty Trucks Of Midnight 2. The Who - 5:15 3. The Cure - 10:15 Saturday Night 4. Maria Muldaur - Midnight at the Oasis 5. Rufus Wainwright - Dinner at Eight 6. The Vogues - Five O'Clock World 7. Bob Marley - Rebel Music (Three O'Clock Roadblock). 8. Spin Doctors - What Time Is It?* 9. The Reverend Horton Heat - Martini Time 10. 11. 12. *... and I sort of question the entry above mine, as I don't think it references a "specific time", by any interpretation; but I leave that to others to decide.
  7. #324 - Songs of Socities - Songs about towns, cities or villages: 1. Springsteen - Atlantic City 2. Blues Traveler - Canadian Rose 3. John Prine - In A Town This Size 4. Max Webster - Toronto Tontos 5. The Bicycles - Paris Be Mine 6. Gram Parsons - The Streets of Baltimore 7. Air - Alone in Kyoto 8. Richard Thompson - The Sights and Sounds of London Town 9. The Rugburns - Skyfuckingline of Toronto 10. 11. 12.
  8. Yes. Those first two words are actually Jamillia", not "Feel you".
  9. I forgot to mention ... the tickets would have involved sitting with my MOTHER in a CASINO. Thanks; but no thanks. (I also find his music very boring, but that was a secondary consideration.)
  10. I don't think I've been there, but I'm pretty sure I've heard of Rock 'n' Roll Heaven for about 30 years.
  11. I was offered free tickets to see Roger Hodgson at Casino Rama. I said "no", but that's happening tonight in Orillia, if you're into that sorta thing.
  12. Hey, very cool. I used to know a house full of hippies in Toronto, who had moved there from St. Stephen. I guess it's a little, border town. They told us they used to drive over to the U.S. for lunch all the time, and Border Patrol got to know them to the point that they hardly had to stop. It sounds like a beautiful place. Congratulations to both of you on the move.
  13. 321: Songs with months of the year in the title, in calendar order Special rules : 1) You can pick any month that hasn't already been used, so long as you put it in the right spot. In other words, the next pick doesn't have to be February, but if the next pick is June, it has to be put in at spot #6 2) If the title has a word that is the same as a month but isn't being used as a month in the title's context (eg. May, March, etc.), it is allowable 1. Hunters & Collectors - January Rain 2. Foo Fighters - February Stars 3. Crucifucks - Marching for Trash 4. Elevator to Hell - The Weight of April Snow 5. Blue Rodeo - 5 Days in May 6. 7. Beach Boys - 4th of July 8. Counting Crows - August & Everything After 9. David Sylvian - September 10. U2 - October 11. Guns N' Roses - November Rain 12
  14. Copyright © 2007 Canadian Press Link Hmmmmm. I'd consider running for them.

Pat Metheny - The Way Up 9. 10. 11. 12.
  16. Okay, hands off everyone. A friend of mine is claiming these tickets. Phorbesie: check your PTs.
  17. I hate fighting with everyone all the time all day about everything. What was the other question, again?
  18. I fight with angry people (often including my clients).
  19. This is my favourite hotel in Vancouver. Among other things, it's been semi-overhauled three times in about a hundred years, but they leave the old stuff and add new, so it's a trip to walk around. Also, the floors seem to have buckled in the hallways, or they are intentionally weird up and down ramps. Either way ... freaky. It's really well located too. I love this place. http://www.sylviahotel.com/
