Why is it that when someone says Best picture ever, I get a red 'x'.

Oh, and I'm 5 minutes behind on the Mental Midget Award so here is the question:

What was the name of the leader of the local gang that Beavis and Butthead always wanted to hang with?

Good luck to all.

The Hallucinogenic Toad Army.

So what is the origin of the Samuel L. Jackson beer guy. Is it an SNL thing?

It's amusing to look at all the massive threads and click on the post count and see who's mainly been there. Do that for the Movie, Song and Word threads and you'll see a different trend.

I like Alanis ..... she's a little angry .... depends on my mood.

There are four columns

"Thread/Thread starter" "Last Post" "Replies" and "Views"

[creek14]

Yes I do feel better. Thanks for asking SB. But now I am unhappy cause the Reds aren't on TV tonight. :(

I still listen to Styx and REO Speedwagon.

So SB, have you heard from the date last night?

[TeamCasey]

REO Speedwagon - my first concert. I can remember being amazed that everyone smoked pot out in the open like that.

<==== loves old Styx, REO and Journey!

After awhile my friends got into heavy metal and I had to dump them. AC/DC and Black Sabbath were cool ..... but the big hair/loud guitar thing just got annoying. :)

[pedro]

oh yeah REO too. that is a guilty pleasure.

we almost got kicked out of a campsite once for singing this one too loud around the campfire. (i have a friend who knows the lyrics to everything)

TAKE IT ON THE RUN
REO Speedwagon

Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you been messin' around
They say you got a boy friend
You're up there every weekend
They're talkin' about you and it's bringin' me down

But I know the neighborhood
And talk is cheap when the story is good
And the tales grow taller on down the line
But I'm telling you, babe
That I don't think it's true, babe
And even if it is keep this in mind

{Refrain}
You take it on the run baby
If that's the way you want it baby
Then I don't want you around
I don't believe it, Not for a minute
You're under the gun so you take it on the run

You're thinking up your white lies
You're putting on your bedroom eyes
You say you're coming home but you won't say when
But I can feel it coming
If you leave tonight keep running
And you need never look back again

{Refrain x 3}

Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you been messin' around

I still have this sense of foreboding. I don’t know what’s going on. It’s weird.

If something bad does happen I’m going to change my name to The Amazing Creekskin.

I bet a lot of you are way, way too young to remember The Amazing Kreskin, aren’t you?

[pedro]

My favorite is 157 Riverside Avenue.

We flew into town on sunday, had to find a place by monday
Tried bridgeport and westport, ’til we found a place that we thought would do
157 riverside avenue.

Saugatuck river’s flowin’, mother nature’s colors were showin’
So cold, so rainy, we couldn’t help feelin’ blue
Not enough time, too many things to do.

We met a young girl on main street, wanted to just pass her by
She was homely, so lonely, she said, can I make love to you.
We shouted 157 riverside avenue.

It’s over, miss lena, we’re leaving. such a pleasant stay, I must say.
So nice, so easy, we hate to say goodbye to you
At 157 riverside avenue.

[creek14]

I use to think that Kevin Cronin singing Can't Stop This Feeling had to be the ultimate in music. :shocked: :help:

[TeamCasey]

Don't say that Creek. Totally serious. I had that feeling twice. First time I just started crying at work for no reason ... my grandmother died right at that moment. The second time my brother was being held at gunpoint in a convenience store. I actually dreamed it while it was going on. The only difference was that it was a pistol in my dream and a sawed shotgun for real. My mother woke up the same night and for no reason went around the house to look out all the windows. Something she's never done. I believe in weird mojo.

[creek14]

A lot of people I know have died in the past few months. Well not a lot. 4 or 5. I guess that's a lot if you were one of the 5. I am hoping it's just all of that catching up with me. I can't figure it out though. It's just this real uncomfortable something isn't right feeling.

I don't think this is about me. Just a weird feeling.

Maybe I need carbs. :)

[Super_Barry11]

I hate that feeling... Only had it once in my life, which is odd considering I've lost so many people close to me. Anyway, I was in the shower after basketball practice my junior year in HS, singing boisterously as usual, when I started to picture a funeral and people hugging me. I was creeped out beyond belief, and when I stepped out of the shower and glanced out the window, my gaze fell upon my neighbor's house, all covered in snow and with the Christmas lights blazing festively. It was that very instant that I knew that my sister had passed away. It was ridiculous since it was so sudden and I had absolutely NO real reason to think that, but I just KNEW. Turns out she collapsed and died during the time I was in the shower.

But, Creek, seeing that you've lost quite a few people recently, perhaps you're right in that it is just a leftover emotion trying to find a way to express itself. I know that my emotions have the oddest ways of popping up at times!!

to me, that's not the kind of thing you make up. "yeah i have an idea, i'm going to make up a story that will make everyone think i'm weird."

sorry to hear about your loss though, your sister couldn't have been very old. sad.

[Super_Barry11]

to me, that's not the kind of thing you make up. "yeah i have an idea, i'm going to make up a story that will make everyone think i'm weird."

:MandJ: Yeah, definitely not all about attempting to make myself appear weird (I do that enough naturally :p: ). She was 13, just a kid still. She had a completely undetected heart condition, evidently. She was a cheerleader and collapsed at a bball game; she was gone before she hit the floor, which I'm eternally grateful for.

Argh, I don't mean to bring the thread down!! Right now we're actually preparing the suite for a lil party... We've got tons of jello shots!!! :D You're all invited!! :)

I was trying to walk like those guys in the Olympic speed walking do

I think I could totally dominate that sport :D I get good time going from the dining room to the kitchen :D

[KronoRed]

I do not know if Hancock and Hudson are single, I actually think I remember hearing that Hudson was married, but not sure.

Getting to be that "quiet" time of night again. Too bad we don't hand out an early evening Rosie Award. I'd be the King.

When I get work and my sleeping pattern changes the RR award will also shift to a different time..should be fun to see who wins then :D

Does anyone else play music that you wouldn't admit to, when no one is around?

What your nerdy music of choice?

80's music

"Only the lonely, only the lonely can play"

The only thing that creeps me out about it is when I consider that he could afford to hire a squadron of goons and give them the order to "Find the lad who made me appear so small and shadowy and beat him senseless with a willow switch." :eek:

When they're done beating you up, ask them if they can ask Carl for a pitcher or 2 ;)

I just checked Unassisted's sig and Krono has 1766 posts in this thread :lol: . Good God, man. That's an accompishment in itself. Krono, my friend, well done, I won't even try to compete with your number of posts in this thread. But remember, it only takes one post to be last....

Thanks! I'm just doing my posting to try and win the the last post ;)

That guy was a hoot. You have to wonder why people like him don't win the lottery every week, ya know.

I don't think this is about me. Just a weird feeling.

Maybe I need carbs. :)

Have a pizza..a big deep dish pizza with lots of bread :D

Glad you feel better after your nap..of course you're most likely asleep right now so I hope that's going well too :D

We have Dubya in our living room at home... CREEPY!!!!!

Amen!

Confession: I still sleep with a teddy bear my grandparents gave to me when I was 8.

I took a glow worm doll from my niece because I'm still upset that the one I foolishly gave the one I had when I was a kid to some crying kid my mom was babysitting..

It sits next to me when I sleep :D

[KronoRed]

I figured out who will get the last post

It's gonna be Boss, in a year or 2 he's gonna look at his server stats and see some MASSIVE amount of space is being taken up by this thread..he will then come in here, ban half of us and close it ;)

Breakfast was corn beef hash and apple juice :)

I need to adjust my going to bed time. I've been staying up to watch the Olympics, but have been getting up at school season time instead of my summer hours. I find myself in dire need of massive quantities of strong hot coffee.

Man, that US women's soccer team cannot sing.

People seem to change the countries they compete for about as often as they change their underwear.

I think Larry Brown could have taken that Spanish coach.

Yep, I loved the 2 Americans last night competing for Russia :confused:

And Larry would have smacked that guy around ;)

[Roy Tucker]

Let me catch up...

I've only had jello shots once at a summer cookout. I prefer my booze straight so I can feel it going down and gauge its effect. Sodey-pop drinks are a sure ticket to drive the white bus.

Never had a premonition.

Have seen REO Speedwagon and Bob Seger about 5000 times in my college days at OU and OSU. I posted my first time seeing REO in here somewhere.

All 3 of my kids still have their baby blankets and they still sleep with them (even HS son who would kill me if he saw this). My youngest still sleeps with her stuffed Barney but puts it away when she has kids spend the nght.

It sounds like SB is having a blast at school. Revel in it girl.

[Unassisted]

After looking at the post counts, I have come to the conclusion that this is KronoRed's thread and the rest of us are just visiting it. :biglaugh:

Our overnight low was 78 last night and it's humid as anything. Great weather if you happen to be an outdoor tropical plant.

Oldest son informs me at 10:00 last night that he'd like to have a report cover for his paper that's due today. After a fruitless search of the house until 10:30, I found myself wishing he'd come to this conclusion before I paid that visit to Office Depot yesterday. :mad:

Don't miss the picture of GIK's new car in the pinned thread on the baseball side. :mhcky21:

Yes, I am having way too much fun!! :) Although, I have been doing a lot of reading and homeworking doing the day in order to justify my nighttime revelry!! :D I can't believe I ended up drunkenly doing my physics last night... The funny thing is, I'm almost positive I did the problems correctly!!! :MandJ:

Only 3 classes for me today!! :) TGIF!! Hope everyone has a great Friday!! :gac:

I hear you ua. I can't count the number of times we've gotten the 10:00 "I forgot, I need a <name the item> tomorrow or I'll flunk" from our kids.

After being around that track few times, the spousal unit has a mini-Office Depot in the basement for such items. You start to know what they'll need pre-school year and we make a stocking up run to Office Depot/Staples.

Parenting is funny. Just about when you've gotten it all figured out, you're done.

Good morning Zombie

[RFS62]

Parenting is funny. Just about when you've gotten it all figured out, you're done.



That is no lie. Except the stuff you finally mastered will morph into more adult needs from you kids. Instead of buying baseball cards or school supplies, then you get into cars and insurance rates.

The personal stuff gets much scarier too. Just think back to when you were 20... no, wait.... don't even go there... it's way too stressful to imagine your kids with that facing them.

I'm 51 now and I still value my mom's advice on life.

[zombie-a-go-go]

Took me longer than ususal to catch up with you cats this morning.

When I'm alone and no one else is around I bust out the Jesus Christ Superstar soundtrack. :D

Uhm... jello-shots are good, real good, too good... a good way to find yourself awake at eleven am with a horrible back/neck cramp, because you (for some reason) decided to crawl up and go to sleep in some stranger's closet... and she wasn't real happy when I opened the door... :MandJ: I'm going to have to go with Roy on this one, I take my whisky straight.

This weekend is going to be a great one for me (I hope).

Tonight, my sister won a contest on some radio station (she's been banned from like 4 of them for winning too much). Anyway, she won a contest and won 4 tickets to the Dragons game which includes seats right behind the plate, a clubhouse and locker room tour, and we get to be on the field for batting practice. :thumbup:

Tomorrow, the wife and I are celebrating our 6th wedding anniversary. My mom is watching the kids and I have made reservations at a swank little bed and breakfast north of Columbus that has a big screen TV, a kind size bed, a jacuzzi, a 2 person shower, a massage table, and they are serving dinner to us in our room as well as breakfast on Sunday. It will be a surprise to her as she doesn't think we are doing anything.

And KR, I would, but I have to do some ... *gag* filing.

[Roy Tucker]

Ohio high school football starts tonight. We're headed out for the Mason-Lakota West game tonight. Mason looks pretty good this year.

It's funny to see my son's friends from t-ball days are now a 6-7 280 lb tackle with a Div. 1 scholarship. What did they feed that boy?

The MHS marching band is playing at halftime (with my son on bass clarinet this year). Then, the band plays in Mason's Heritage Day parade tomorrow AM. I've also got to buy him a used car this weekend. The spousal unit has informed me she is done carting him around.

The next 24 hours will be very busy. I'm outta here for the day, got too much work to do...

Be careful, RL. You're setting the bar pretty high, and it'll be hard to top yourself when the milestone anniversaries come around. ;)

I'm making up for last year as well. She was pregnant (our son was born Sept 3rd) and we couldn't do anything because she was too uncomfortable and it was HOT in August last year, so we stayed home and I cooked her steak on the grill. Trying to make up for that. She's a good woman, hard worker, good mom, etc so she deserves a little pampering every now and then. :thumbup:

I just had lunch, actually. From the vending machine. Mm-mmm-m.

I'm leaving @ 2pm today. That's my goal.

The company is having a nationwide review of its satellite offices (of which I am one) at the end of the month, so (Louisville tells me) I shouldn't start on any new work, but just finish up what I'm working on now to make my numbers look good.

But I don't have anything lingering; my desk is caught up.

So basically, I'm supposed to spend the next three days doing absolutely nothing.

Morning, Rosie. Don't know why it's so quiet. Maybe everyone died of shock from the Harangatang's 1-0 win last night. Maybe cause it's Friday. Of course the way things have been lately, the quiet has been a nice respite from the complaining and the whining.

Well what do you know! I called the cat in here, and she came! Let me pet her and everything, no treats required. By the way Krono, my cat looks an awful lot like one of your cats -- mine is also a grey tabby.

TC, I'm with you on the ear drops. Makes me feel horribly guilty anytime I have to give them to the cat. (The last time I did, when she had an ear infection, she spent an entire week in my bathroom sink. It wasn't pretty.)

In 1937, a team known as the Cincinnati Bengals was formed as a member of the rival American Football League. It was that team’s nickname which was later adopted by today’s NFL franchise.

The 1937 Bengals finished with a 2-4-2 record in their first year, but the AFL folded after the season. The Bengals continued as an independent team in 1938, playing three NFL teams that year. They beat the Chicago Bears, 17-13, and the Pittsburgh Pirates, 38-0, and tied the Chicago Cardinals, 7-7.

In 1939, the Bengals joined a new AFL, finishing in second place with a 6-2 record. But again, the league folded after the season.

Once again in 1940, another new AFL emerged, and again the Bengals joined. They recorded 1-7-0 and 1-5-2 marks in 1940 and 1941, respectively. That AFL suffered the fate of the two AFLs before it, folding after the 1941 season as the United States entered World War II. Only this time, the Bengals folded along with it.

Pro football returned to Cincinnati 26 years later, in 1967, when Paul Brown headed an ownership group which landed an expansion franchise in the modern-era American Football League. Brown, a Pro Football Hall of Famer who founded and coached the Cleveland Browns from 1946-62, picked the name Bengals for the new team “to give it a link with past professional football in Cincinnati.”

Hundreds of names were suggested by fans in an effort to name the new Cincinnati team, the most popular being Buckeyes. It was rejected to avoid confusion with the Ohio State Buckeyes.

The Bengals began play in the AFL in 1968. The AFL merged with the NFL in 1970.

Well what do you know! I called the cat in here, and she came! Let me pet her and everything, no treats required. By the way Krono, my cat looks an awful lot like one of your cats -- mine is also a grey tabby.

TC, I'm with you on the ear drops. Makes me feel horribly guilty anytime I have to give them to the cat. (The last time I did, when she had an ear infection, she spent an entire week in my bathroom sink. It wasn't pretty.)

Has an attitude right? Every grey cat I've ever had packs an attitude :eek:

Did John Fay write that? ;)

Hilarious! No, it's from my MLB desk calendar. :)

I just get the look that says, "I trusted you, I TRUSTED YOU, TC! This is how you repay my unconditional love? Well, let me tell you that it is conditional. If you come near me with that %^%* again ..... I'll disappear for a week. That right! No cuddling for you, you witch!"

The look says a lot.

Donato's is too damn greasy. It's gross. You can pour the oil off the top.

She's actually very sweet and timid. But I used to have another grey tabby (who now lives with my parents), and she definitely has an attitude. She's a big snob, only eats canned cat food.

And to make matters worse, she was spayed too young and it somehow was screwed up, so she still goes into heat even though she has no uterus or ovaries or anything. :eek: Poor baby. :(

(For the record, I didn't do that to her. I adopted her from the SPCA, and they told me she hadn't been spayed yet. But when I took her to the vet to get her spayed, they discovered she already had been.)

Yeah that is one bad look..our cats don't give me that look..but the Mrs gets it..and she caves and offer treats and whatever they want ;)

I used to like Donato's, but the last time I had it it was BAD.

We had LaRosa's at work yesterday, and it was BAD too. But at least it was free.

Was about to say I guess Z left work..but now he's online

Best pizza in town is Pomadori's.

[KronoRed]

I prefer my local Pasquales

[westofyou]

LaRosa's the most overrated pizza ever baked.

[TeamCasey]

I'm heading out for one of these.
