  1. Off season sucks.
  2. Yeah, time changes things. The Armadillo concert was 74. This youtube video is 76, so about the same era. She sang this song, and made eye contact with me when she sang the line, "if you want me to beg, I'll fall down on my knees." Thought I was gonna die. She was wearing jeans, not the miniskirt, though.
  3. I'm gonna make y'all jealous. Got to see her live at Armadillo World Headquarters. It was right after Don't Cry Now came out and before Heart Like a Wheel, so she wasn't a superstar yet. There was a big crowd, but not the crazy crowds she drew later. Got there early and parked at the front of the stage about five feet from her microphone stand. She was every bit as beautiful as she was in the photos.
  4. Lots of injuries. Bet some of these guys got called in to play from the couch or the loading dock.
  5. I think mine's delayed, too. That tip drill play would have resulted in a five minute delay for review in the NFL.
  6. These games are fun. Play quality is not horrible, the announcers understand that the game is the show, and there aren't a bunch of game stoppages. Also like them requiring 2 pt conversion.
  7. Girl Scout cookies aren't that good.
  8. They're saying he got a rub and tug, but a few things bother me on the story, the biggest being they make some statements, blow it into an international sex trafficking ring, and Kraft apparently was in Massachusetts when all this stuff in Florida went down. They didn't catch him on the table with his pants down like Moe Green. All I'm saying is this story is too much like the last fifty "big stories" that have come out. Outrageous story followed by three minutes of hate, followed by revelation of things that mean the original story was wildly inaccurate, followed by press burying the story to move on to the next outrageous thing. There are more actual facts revealed in an episode of Supernatural than in a modern media story.
  9. Not sure I buy this story. Lots of memes, jokes, innuendo about sex slavery and insults, but few facts. Palm Beach County is incredibly corrupt. This story seems too much like an internet meme.
  10. Take off your shoes before logging into xhamster. It's not complicated.
  11. They weren't hiring musicians. They were hiring relatively clean cut non-threatening actors to play musicians. Stills looked like a doper. The Monkees would have been less successful with him than with the group they selected, cause he always looked like the guy who might pull a knife on you in a parking lot. The twelve and thirteen year olds they were targeting wanted bubble gum music, not protest songs. Read some interesting stuff on the Monkees. They were a big part of the Ventura Canyon scene, but the studio kept it under wraps to keep their image clean. During their brief run, they had a lot more success than the "serious" musicians, many of whom would hang out with them off camera. Manson was a hanger on all over the place, and played in several bands. No surprise he'd show up at an open audition. People may have dissed the Monkees, but Screen Gems wasn't out to make art, they were out to make money, and when Don Kirschner was handling them, they were outselling the Beatles. They harmonized pretty well, and quite a few of their songs still get air play.
  12. Streep's a decent actress, but people talk about her like she doesn't need to use Febreeze after she goes to the bathroom. She's a pretty good actress that's propped up and hyped by the media machine far more than her talent suggests she should be. After That 70s Show, he was a very hot item. When most of his projects bombed, his star faded. Anyway, when the thread talks about overrated, doesn't necessarily mean they're bad, just not as good as advertised. I'd put most actors/actresses in the overrated category, cause they're usually reading lines written by someone else, and special effects, makeup and editing makes them seem smarter, stronger and better looking than in real life. It can get pretty cringy to listen to an actor interviewing when they don't have a script. Yeah, I know most people on this board didn't like That 70s Show, but the first few seasons had some great lines.
  13. Meryl Streep George Clooney Ashton Kutcher Kristen Stewart
  14. So many good songs posted here. Could spend a solid month listening. Here are a few of mine, with thoughts: Wasn't a huge Loretta Lynn fan, but her songs were real, which is why a lot of modern country falls short, IMHO. They're singing about a life they didn't really live. First concert I remember going to was a Buck Owens concert with my dad There have been a lot of great versions of Orange Blossom Special, but my favorite has always been Don Rich's version. There's no improvisation, it's just the cleanest version I've ever heard. Time seems to pass so fast now. Seems crazy that Wagon Wheel was put out fifteen years ago.
  15. You're right. Advantage Cheeseweasel.
  16. It's not over yet. McCartney, Nesmith, Dolenz and Starr. New group, the Beakees.
  17. Yeah, you'd have to go to Walgreen's and see the chick demanding to speak to the manager to find someone that hot.
  18. Did you hear about the man with the five penises? His pants fit like a glove.
  19. Classic beauty.
  20. Any deal to get them to stay should require Mark Davis to get a different haircut.
  21. Big challenge in figuring out Texas for this year is the number of one score games from last year, against both good and bad teams. There were seven wins by a score or less and three losses by a score or less. So, if we figure all those games went down to the final possession, it's a possible record of anywhere from 13-1 to 4-10, depending on a couple of bounces in each game. Good sign is the Horns have gotten more physical, and physicality travels well. Herman may make some calls I wouldn't make, but I usually understand the logic. There are far fewer WTF moments than there were under Strong. Ehlinger is looking good, and there are only a few returning strong quarterbacks. Thinking Brewer and Purdy are solid. Anyone else? Four new coaches, but the Horns were 3-1 against the teams that replaced coaches. I THINK the Horns turned the corner. Weird note: Herman has been at UT for two years. There are now only three Big 12 coaches that have been in the league longer than him; Patterson, Campbell and Gundy.
  22. Yes. It should be on the list not only for the songs but for the goofing on the songs. "Lawrence...Lawrence of Arabia....he's an English guy..."
  23. Random neural firings: Crazy how one game changes perception. Prior to the Clemson game, a LOT of people were saying this Alabama team was the best ever, maybe in the history of college football. Now, a lot of people are questioning Saban's methodology and speculating on his retirement. It's a little too early to declare the Tide as a dead, over the hill program. Anyone who has a successful career going at a P5 that has a legit shot to make the playoffs with an undefeated season would be insane to take the Bama job after Saban leaves. Saban had to win multiple titles before people quit wanting to dig up Bear Bryant's corpse and prop him up on the sidelines. They'll do the same thing with whoever replaces Saban. Saban's big strength is that since he's gotten the program rolling, he has the ability to keep four and five star athlete egos in check, at least on the field. If a coach is used to dealing with three star athletes, the four and five stars are a whole different animal. Think Ed Oliver and Major Applewhite. A three star thinks he's lucky to be with a program. A five star thinks the program is lucky to have him.
  24. This. The first time is like going down a water slide. The second time is jumping off the high board. Or maybe like a video game where you saved at a certain spot and picked up there.
