Dahl off the air
QUOTE (Hatchetman @ Dec 8, 2008 -> 01:40 PM) the obvious thing would be for steve and garry to reunite. on a good station in the afternoons they would get decent ratings. But from what I understand of it all, Gary would probably say "when Hell freezes over I might consider teaming up with that guy again". From what I always heard, Gary never really liked Dahl. With as much silence as there was on Steve's show, I would bet the only way anybody actually noticed his being gone was that there were voices on the radio during his time slot.

R.I.P. Forrest J. Ackerman
The original fan has left us all. Not sure if many here know Forry, but if you do, you know how HUGE of a blow this is to fandom. The bit about him having no kids could not be further from the truth. He may not have had any biologically, but there are MILLIONS of us Monster Kids out there that he helped to create. RIP Uncle Forry.

I never thought I'd say it, but...
I never liked Marriotti,so I never read him, therefore I can't possibly miss him. I can say I don't miss the silly threads tearing into him every other day. You know the threads, the ones where everybody wrote in complaining about him and then Tex steps in and makes a comment about how Jay says the same things everybody here does, but when he does it is b.s.. Remember those? Been a long time since that has happened. Wait...what was that on page 1 of this thread??? North? I am thrilled I don't have to every so often stumble onto that voice anymore! I like M&H a lot. Well, mostly Mulley. Now if there was someway of getting rid of Murphy...

Question for Ozzy/Black Sabbath fans
I should probably admit though that I am 38 so was obviously NOT into Sabbath during their initial run. But as a 10 year old kid in 1980 I was obsessed with Ozzy. The first two solo albums, IMO, are still two of the finest pieces of music ever recorded. They were so much more serious than anything else he ever did after them. There was nothing "jokey" at all. The music was brilliant, the lyrics strong, and the whole image worked perfectly. Everything that followed Randy's death was an imitation of what had come before.

Question for Ozzy/Black Sabbath fans
Ozzy Osbourne died in a plane crash back on March 19th, 1982 with his brilliant guitarist Randy Rhoads. I have no idea who this twat that has replaced him since then is, but he sucks and ruined a wonderful name.

Person Below You Game
QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Nov 28, 2008 -> 10:53 PM) False, it was in a motel with a married woman. The person below me loves peanut butter. False, but I do like it. The person below me doesn't give a rats-ass about politics but is afraid to admit it.

Fall of '08 television season thread
I saw a few minutes of that Rosie O'Donnell variety show. It's been a looooong time since I have cursed the invention of the TV that much. Eh, but for my blatant stupidity of not turning off the TV faster, I guess I deserved that. Idiot.

Music Thread
The new Christmas single from Cyndi Lauper and The Hives: I adore Cyndi and I like The Hives, so this song was destined to be cool. But this is just all sorts of cool that it is silly! Cyndi's voice is amazing on this track (as usual).

Most attractive hair color?
QUOTE (The Critic @ Nov 26, 2008 -> 08:27 PM) When I was young, I was all about the blondes. But I eventually came to prefer brunettes, and I still do now. Kiss ass.

Tipping
QUOTE (knightni @ Nov 26, 2008 -> 08:16 PM) I would. At least a few bucks. Fair enough. I guess I never considered it in a place like Culvers. That type of place is such a gray area, IMO.

Chicago's Finest Urban Legends
QUOTE (Heads22 @ Nov 26, 2008 -> 04:02 PM) I've been seeing some about Ames (there's some pretty good ones, mainly because of all of the Manhattan Project work being done at ISU).....what are some of the best about Chicago? The biggest is obviously O'Leary's cow.

Tipping
QUOTE (knightni @ Nov 26, 2008 -> 08:03 PM) If it was brought to you, yes. So you are supposed to tip at a Culvers??? That is the exact same situation as there.

Tipping
What about the restaurant where you walk in, order at a counter, then go sit down. A waitress then brings your food out to you. You are responsible for your own drinks and everything other than the waitress bringing you your food. Do you tip there? If you say "yes", then do you tip at a Culvers? I'm asking because everybody I work with tips at this place (it is NOT a Culvers) and I am still not sure if you should.
