Saw "Bottle Rocket." Not impressed.

I drank 10+ beers in your honor tonight - or just because it's Saturday. Happy Birthday.

He makes enough money from the Stern show to support himself. Unfortunately, he's a boozer/druggie/gambler and needs to do stand up to support those habits. I feel bad for him. "Waaaah, I'm a big, fat druggie who can't control himself. Waaaah!"

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ May 23, 2007 -> 01:16 PM) The way he explains it, the guy who started the Score was at his hot dog stand mentioning the possibility of starting a sports radio channel, and North wouldnt leave him alone until he gave him a chance. North made his own tape and got hired. When North was inducted into some hall of fame recently they played the tape, it was hilariously bad. And he didnt sound the same AT ALL. I think he also used to buy time to do a radio show before he started with the score, while he still sold hot dogs. North should dust off the old "Hug a Black Day" bit when he gets to NYC. It would be a perfect way to pay tribute to Imus and make amends for Imus' sins.

I'm pretty sure I'll still be confused 3 years from now when this finally wraps up.

QUOTE(Wedge @ May 23, 2007 -> 09:07 AM) Favor: Can nobody post spoilers or even hints of the spoilers in this thread? This is like the one message board I can go to and hopefully count on not seeing something on the level of "Snape kills Dumbledore". I really appreciate it! Snape killed Dumbledore?

A used teabag usually does the trick. Try one from Lipton, not one from a roommate.

The best man speech should not be a roast of the groom. It also shouldn't be overly sappy. Leave sappy for the always horrible maid of honor speech - a practice that should be abolished. Tips: Before the wedding: Make it a point to meet everyone in the wedding party (ever the weird cousin of the bride). Take time to talk to both of the sets of parents at the rehearsal dinner. Kind of hold off on the booze a little until you've gotten all the formalities out of the way. Make it obvious why you were selected as the best man. At the wedding: Welcome everyone. Talk about how you know the groom. Funny (clean) anecdote or two. Talk about the couple. Offer a toast to the couple. The speech should be brief, but not so short that people who aren't paying attention will miss it completely. Make sure the room is reasonably quiet when you begin, don't just launch into your speech.

Really good episode. I've never liked Charlie, but i was feeling really bad for him throughout the episode. It's the first time I ever cared about him. Desmond is a favorite of mine, and when he offered to step in for Charlie, I groaned. I immediately started to dislike Charlie again.

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ May 14, 2007 -> 09:48 PM) My son just got the same assignment today in his social studies class, only they just had to pick 2 of the things mentioned. After showing him how to use google, dogpile and wikipedia, NOW I find your post. Coulda saved us about 15 minutes! I'll tell him to add you as a footnote. I'm sure the teacher will be impressed that Middle Buffalo is used as a source.

It's amazing how much things have changed since I was in high school. Billy Joel released this song in 1989, and my history teacher offered extra credit to anyone who defined all the historical references in the song. At the time, researching that would have been next to impossible (considering that some of the words are kind of hard to understand). Today, it takes about 5 seconds on Google. Two links: The first is a photo-collage (sp?) http://www.ugcs.caltech.edu/~yeli23/Flash/Fire.html The second defines all the pics http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/We_Didn't_Start_the_Fire This would have helped me get an A in AP History.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ May 11, 2007 -> 07:36 AM) However I only use it when I drive, or when I am on call for work and have to type on my laptop to fix something, while talking to someone that doesn't speak too good of English at 3am. This makes me smile.

Cut and paste the questions, if you please. What is your favorite word? Currently, "redonkulous." I just started using it. My wife is not happy. What is your least favorite word? "Can't." Hate hearing my kids say it. What turns you on? An unexpected, but well placed, pinky finger. What turns you off? B.O. What sound or noise do you love? The noise of kids at recess. The screams, laughs, etc. I grew up near a school, and, even as a kid, I always appreciated this noise. What sound or noise do you hate? The bass that people pump out of their trunks. I can't even imagine how bad that must sound inside the car. What is your favorite curse word? Fu**! What profession other than yours would you most like to attempt? Male cheerleader. What profession other than yours would you least like to attempt? Police officer. I have a ton of respect for them, but I'm not man enough for the job. If heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the pearly gates? I'm going to give you a second chance.

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ May 3, 2007 -> 06:58 AM) I can't ignore the fact that this chick sitting on your lap was just sitting on some 350lb sweaty scumbag saying and doing the same things 5 minutes ago. It just screams of desperation to me. That and the whole fact of paying for that kind of s***. I had girlfriends to do that. I can't believe you let your girlfriends do that.

34, 6"2" Not sure why I'm interested in this thread, but I am.

QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ Apr 26, 2007 -> 10:45 PM) Like half the posters in this thread got banned...pretty cool... Is this true? I'm stunned.

QUOTE(Steff @ Feb 13, 2004 -> 02:49 PM) Aboz... did your Cheerios taste a bit funny this morning.. What happened to Steff?

QUOTE(Craig Grebeck @ Apr 26, 2007 -> 06:37 AM) Way to stay classy. Hope you don't ever have to go through half the s*** Santo has. f*** off. Lighten up. It was a joke. Obviously a terrible thing to say, but a joke.

QUOTE(whitesox91403 @ Apr 23, 2007 -> 11:54 AM) This is Skinner, real name Steve Keirn. Was in a tag team with Stan lane back in the day known as The Faboluos Ones That's who I was thinking. My friend has someone else in mind. It's not the Berzerker - "Hus Hus Hus!"

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Apr 23, 2007 -> 11:31 AM) Was this guy in WWF? Yes - circa 1992.

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Apr 23, 2007 -> 11:17 AM) I've heard that Hillbilly Jim was a prick before. It wasn't him. I remember when he first joined the WWF. They used to show him in the crowd every week and talk about him. One week, Hogan got jumped in the ring (probably by Big John Stud), and HBJ jumped out of the crowd into the ring and saved him. He actually had fewer moves than Hogan. His submission hold was the Bear Hug. Ahhh, old school wrestling.

QUOTE(CanOfCorn @ Apr 23, 2007 -> 10:48 AM) Don't we lower the flag to half-staff on Memorial Day? If not, we should and then it does what it's supposed to do. Although I agree with Mid-Buff, too. It's half-staff until noon, then raised on Memorial day.

The flag would be at half staff almost constantly if we lowered it for servicemen who died in combat. It's a nice thought, but I think it should probably be done locally. For instance, if a soldier from Illinois dies, lower the flag in Illinois.
