Your favorite opening track on an album?
He took drum lessons in the 90s from Freddie Gruber. He felt he'd hit a wall with his playing and wasn't improving. So from Test For Echo on, he switched to a traditional grip and changed how he played, became much more fluid. Vapor Trails was a little rough because he hadn't played in a while, having taken a break after his wife and daughter died. That said... Rush absolutely lost their groove through the 80s. Then they got it back for Counterparts. You can hear them struggling to get back to it on Presto (a good album without any really great tunes) and Roll the Bones (a couple of good tunes on an otherwise forgettable album), but I'd argue that Counterparts is up there with their best albums ever. I probably listen to Vapor Trails Remixed more than any other album of theirs.

Very different wording of what you say Booby is saying vs what CTJ is saying; Bobby is saying that the measurements of the OL were much larger than the actual player, while CTJ is leaving that pretty critical detail out. This is why a stick of RAM costs more than my car; so we can make a fool out of JAGs who transfer to OU. he committed to oklahoma freakshow and i am the idoit- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Eloi!

See, part of the reason I don't pay for $9.95 sites any more is that some really low life scum are taking the money for those places, like Ketch. But even in cases where you have good and capable people (e.g. Bobby and Gerry), the above is true. If they don't report on news as soon as they get it, then a competitor will, and the market doesn't punish them for being wrong. If it did, this wouldn't remain the nature of the beast. Their subscribers are rewarding them for immediate gratification, not for in-depth accuracy. And nothing will get the subscriber base angrier than getting no news, or being told that further investigation is warranted or "too soon to know." That's why hints and information-free posts are standard throughout the whole $9.95 industry. Related: I've got a lot of posters here on ignore, but I'm ignoring most of you the old-fashioned way.

well there's a fetish I didn't know I had until today- January 4, 2006
We had 5 tickets; 4 for my parents, brother and sis-in-law, and one for me -- clear on the other side of the stadium. So I snuck back over to their seats and, being bleachers, squeezed in. There were a couple of USC coeds who would go "WHOOP WHOOP!" and drove us nuts. Well, they got quiet by the end there. When VY scored the go-ahead TD, you can actually hear on the recording the sound we in attendance made. I've never heard anything like it. My whole family and I went nuts. We all did. It was insane. After my brother and I left for college, football was how my family stayed connected. We'd fly in from wherever we were -- San Diego, Pittsburgh, Atlanta, Amarillo, whatever -- and we'd be at the game together. I'm actually grateful to Mack Brown for all those Holiday Bowl games, since that brought family to where I ended up. Ha! And we had some great times... that 2008 OU game was a special moment, seeing Ricky's record-breaking run in person, and just getting to know the people we've sat next to at DKR-Memorial over several decades; every time I show up, it might've been 5 years since I last made a game, but we remember. And there were some shit times, like being at the game when Colt had his head bashed in, back when my son was young. My son didn't really grasp the magic of Texas football until 172 flights out of San Diego were canceled, including mine, and he got to see us bust up Clemson instead of me last year. And that 5-year period of futility against OU, or the 2010 BCS game against Alabama -- that was just me and Dad who could make it. As soon as Colt went down, we knew. Mom's gone, but I think she and Nicole's Dad are watching the games upstairs. Dad missed the A&M game this year so that I could go with my son, my brother, and HIS son. Say what you will about CDC but he's made gameday a heck of an experience. (Beating A&M helps, too. With all y'all 100,000 crazy fuckers being there with us.) Shit what was I talking about? Anyway... Yeah. That game stands alone. Mom said that if she ever became an invalid, just to put that game (and the classic MGM musicals on repeat for her on the TV). Well, I couldn't hook up video to the ICU for her, though I did get to play "Singin' in the Rain" for her. I think that was one of the few things that registered for her; she was really out of it. Anyway. Again. Thanks for reading this. 2006 was special for me. I knew when it we won in 2006 that nothing would beat that experience. Not just the win, not just the game, but being there with family. We might win another one, but it won't be the same without Mom and everyone being there.- Texas vs Mississippi State- 5pm on SECN
