    quite right weezy...maybe even most infuential radio-friendly guitarists of all time...makes me quite sick to see Slash in the top twenty, let alone the top f$#king five (no hard feelings, k Sally?)!!!

    i dunno, i'm no guitar critic but i might be tempted to sneak Neil in there...but then the list would be getting serious and would no longer be good for a laugh!

    Kirk Hammett AND James Hetfield??? hammett is understandable, although not top ten material...why don't we throw in Dave "the Snake" Sabo and the rest of his 'boys'?

  2. man, that show was hilarious! That Barth guy (i always thought his name was Barf) cracked me up!!!!

    Check this game out...its on the YCDTOTV page.

    Kick Moose's Ass

    i remember some skit about a kid who was sent out to buy liver for dinner, wasted the cash on video games or something, stopped at the cemetary on the way home to pick up some used liver, instead.... this left me with permanent psychological scarring, but the show still rocked!

    actually, I think it goes in to the left, with a little counter-clockwise rotation.

    here I am, having not been 'influenced' by superfluous amounts of the old codgers and I love every minute of every show i have seen thus far & that isn't often easy to accomplish. Don't get me wrong, I'm not some sort of musical elitist, i just tend to like what i like and sneer mockingly at the rest....

    i have plenty of more listening to do, alot more territory to cover, but i have a possible theory here...

    having not been previously tainted, is there an 'originality' to the music that I hear (or anyone else recently introduced to the sounds) that someone familiar with the dead, etc.... loses in the inevitable comparisons???

    have some been spoiled to the point that, original or not, they'll never be The Dead???

    i dunno, just wonderin'...

    by the way, i don't dance and now suddenly i do...when appropriate... its not the drugs, or the scene, so its gotta be the fact that i've run into some good tunes??

    By the way, what is the longest Skank thread to date? Is this one getting close?

  4. 1) '91 Passat (actually my wife's but I can pretend)... parts are made of gold, apparently and he's on his last legs

    2) My car experience is pretty limited, but the best ride I've ever been in would have to be a is an A-Star

    3) Any car in the world, eh?! It would definitely be the El Camino Love Machine, baby!

    It's just that not many people do, because most everyone thinks you're a

    . Talk to yourself less, other people more, little shaver.

    i'm loser and proud of it, baby!

    by the way, what the hell do they mean by little shaver?!?

    does this mean all of us dreamers are destined for the next issue of Hustler?

  6. Metrics...i frikkin' hate this one...it gets tacked on to the end of almost every noun like design-metrics, research-metrics, blah, blah, blah, yada, yada...

    win-win gets me too...

    this is my first extended experience in a '9-to-5' office setting and the buzzwords are killing me...another one is product/company branding...made me hack up a hair ball the first time i heard that one

  7. stapes: might I suggest an intensive campaign starting tonite @ the Babylon, where you can dredge up all the dirt on your opponent, Senator Booche - you know, like the time he fondled those young, innocent, oh...wait a minute, my cell phone is ringing....

  8. ...so here's the scoop, poop:

    quote:

    Like just 12% of the population you are a DREAMER (SIAF)--reserved and imaginative. You are basically the shy, silent type. You don't have much interest in facts and figures or most of what's going on around you, but the internal worlds you build for yourself are rich and complex.


    interesting...SIAF...hmmmmm....switch those letters around a bit and what do you get....AS IF!!!

    i appreciated the "are you the kind of person who forgets where things are, like your keys or your tongue?"

    happens all the time...

  9. here's my take on the outside view of the jamband scene....

    up until a year or so ago, i had never even heard the term 'jamband'...i had known of the Dead and was introduced to Phish by dogatthestation, but never really took the bull by the horns and with it - so, as far as i was concerned, phish and the dead were tha jamband scene, both of which interested me, but never really pulled me in.

    then, after a long hiatus, came a shot a BNB...i was very impressed, but too new to it all to really appreciate it

    then there was nero...and i thought "what the f#@k! this is way more than i ever imagined!!"..stupified to say the least

    a couple of more shows, including drums n' tuba & downtime (yum yum)

    the scene is as much the music as it is the people who partake of the tunes...i'm blown away by both aspects. i may have never wandered into these strange and wonderful vistas and i'm damn glad i did...

    labels don't ever do anything justice and one label isn't gonna be much better than the other... the trick is, methinks, luring us unelightened ones into a show or two - i think anyone that truly appreciates good music, or groovin' at the very least, can't help but get into it all... word of mouth is the pearl of every movement

  10. you know what? judging from the pic on backbacons post, i decided to not even click the link and guess what??? I didn't see any wacky shit! not that i would have freaked had i checked it out, but it comes down to one simple choice

    my brain's been through much worse shite..i mean, i hafta read at least one puddles post a day -

    i wouldn't worry bacon, life goes on & FOX tv will show worse than that on a daily basis

  11. i got so caught up in useless trivia that i forgot to make a point (not that i will succeed in doing that here)

    i do think that at this point, JPII is really just a focal point for the public and all papal decisions are made by the vatican cardinals & apporproate arch-bishops. if God's little kid hadda made it to old age, they would have been dragging him round the Middle East, nothing more than a shell, just to re-energize the faith of the masses

    quote:

    It's been my observation that, as organizations get older and larger, their efforts get directed more and more towards maintaining their existence (as they are) and less and less towards their original purpose

    very true, just look at the Leafs... [big Grin]

  12. ...the pope needs to 'kick the holy water receptacle' before a replacement steps in....

    they blow some white smoke outta the vatican chimney to signal that the new choice has been made...

    did you also know, that the papacy was split at one point with a pope in France and one in Italy? Jerry Lewis was the last official French pope
