for me.. it begins and ends with a pint of the black stuff

The Theme from Shaft..

..except I'm not black

..nor am I a private dick that's a sex machine to all the chicks

..nor am I a bad motherfu©ker

..nor am I a complicated man who no one understands but my woman

but I would like to think that I would both risk my neck for my brother man and not cop out when there's danger all about

I could have sworn that at one point in time transfers were good except on travelling the other direction on the same number bus.. meaning.. you can go west on the number 2 and then east on the 85 but you couldn't go west on the number 2 and then east on the 2 again. Apparently I was wrong.

I'd hit up the Audio Center on Clyde and Baseline, I've have had nothing but great service and recommendations from those guys. They have good quality stuff too..

I was wondering if Die Hard was going to make an appearance..

I prefer Die Hard 2: Die Harder as a strict christmas film, just cuz there's no snow in the first one

Fozzie's mom's houWHOAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH THUD

A Wish For Wings is awesome.. but I make sure I never miss A Charlie Brown Christmas (I mean c'mon) and A Muppet Christmas (the one done before Jim Henson died, with all the Muppets, Seasame Street and Fraggles representing)

ok.. in an attempt to combine the Favourite Christmas Record and Favourite Movie threads.. what is your Favourite Christmas (or any other holiday that comes around this time) Movie?

mine is, hands down, A Christmas Story.. best ever!

David Grisman's Acoustic Christmas

and

the "original soul christmas" compilation by Atlantic

never leave my christmas rotation

if we are recommending Christmas records I'd like to add David Grisman's Acoustic Christmas.. awesome!

You forgot:

Too old to remember love

Primal heave

and the ever popular... .Girl don't go away mad, just go get my goddamn slippers!

I've been listening to The Darkness at least once a day for the past two weeks

if anyone of you guys is like me and uses firefox both at home and at work then I recommend the Bookmarks Synchronizer extension.

you need some webspace to use it, but what it does is creates and XML file with all of your bookmarks in it. Each version of firefox you use (if it has the extension installed) will grab your bookmarks from the XML file. That way you can bookmark a site at work, and then view it at home.

gotta love centralization!

hmm..

maybe Astrogroove - Astrogroove ( www.astrogroove.com)

Astrogroove is a side project of Richard Underhill (of Shuffle Demons fame). It's a three piece band that experiments with electronic music styles acoustically, from avant garde stuff to drum'n'bass and breakbeat.

Even better live (as all things should be).

The Crowd will be hold it's 10th Annual Christmas party (wow.. we've been doing this for 10 years!) this Friday at Tucson's Roadhouse (corner of Bank and Hunt Club).

The show will start around 9:00 and, like every year, it's an all ages, family event.

Come on out for the show or come early and grab a bite to eat first. If you decide to do the later I suggest you look into picking up the "Dinner and Blues" package that they offer. It's my understanding that it will save you a few bucks.

So, Here are the official details:

Who: The Crowd (www.thecrowd.ca)

What: The Crowd's 10th Annual Christmas Party

Where: Tucson's Roadhouse, 2440 Bank St at Hunt Club (www.tucsonsblues.com)

When: Friday, December 10th, show starts @ 9:00pm

that's an awesome side project man.. I've added it to my LJ

I believe it's bass and drums

probably the border crossing.. not into Canada.. but back into the States..

oh.. I think I heard of those guys.. aren't they the band with the lead singer with the big lips and the guitarist who is a zombie.. and they never stop touring?

who are these "Beatles" that you all speak of?

heya steve from cleveland..

when you say they drink sweat tea down south are you talking about iced tea or hot tea? cuz my experience with iced tea south of the mason-dixon line is that it's essentially just cold tea.. completely unsweetened

and if you want to talk about regional foods in the US.. what's the deal with chicken fried steak

if you really want to make them look at you funny ask for malt vinegar.. and then a serviette

there was a hip hop guy in the late 80s/early 90s called Special Ed.. but I'm guessing it's not the same guy

no problem Howler, that's what my brain is for.

I also teach some classes at Algonquin, something you may want to think about depending on what your cash flow is like. But yeah, feel free to bug me whenever
