Kid Gleason

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Nov 16, 2005 -> 12:55 PM) Is the G7 rating available to the motion picture industry the way it is for video games and TV shows. If so, I agree it should be G7. If not, they probably had no chice than to go G, since it clearly didn't warrant a PG-13. Oh, yeah, sorry about your kid being scarred for life. But with you as Dad, that was probably inevitable. aH, ha, ha, ha... Have you seen the movie? Trust me, once the carnage starts, that film deserved a PG. It only got a G due to Disney and their pull. Any other studio would have been slapped with a PG, no if's and's or butt's about it.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Nov 16, 2005 -> 12:26 PM) Her role in the Sound of Music is legendary as the film is shown yearly & still remains a big event. She should be honored for that. Having seen Chicken Little with my kids, the Pig is gay. They don't know that, but I do. Why? Because I've heard the Streisand reference so many times that's the first thing that comes to mind. But to this day I still don't understand the connection! What if you are straight & happen to like some of her movies & her albums? Chicken Little scared the s*** out of my 2+ year old son. f*** Disney for releasing that damn film as a "G", masking it as a happy, cutesy, silly little romp, and then turning it into an all out Horror film complete with razor sharp implemented robots seemingly killing all of the towns inhabitants. If you plan to take your littlest ones to this film, be warned that it turns REAL ugly an hour into it. Yes, it clears it up, but a little kid will not know the difference.

Watch those eyes, take care of them kids!!!

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Nov 16, 2005 -> 08:40 AM) I'm a gate crasher but I think I have all of you beat on this one. I actually ponied up and bought the 2 disc 40th anniversary edition of the Sound of Music that just came out yesterday. I almost started a poll on SL&P about it yesterday to see if the concensus was that the puchase suggested I was less than a real man, too cool to worry about what anybody thinks, or somewhere in the middle. My wife detests musicals and has already stated in no uncertain terms that she will NOT be watching it woth me this weekend. OK, back to the ghey. f**.

But you don't want it so easy that it could be accidentally pulled. I would think it would be like any other "self defense" tool where once you got it, you took time to practice with it so that it could be an action you are comfortable with, and one that you know what you are doing.

Back when I had the band going, and had the hair (and wore make-up), I was called a "F**" probably more than any Gay person I have ever met. Do I get into the club on a technicality???

Heh, my daughter actually thinks I'm cool. She says I'm weird, but she also thinks I'm pretty cool. It probably helps that I am a musician who plays music she does like, and I collect toys, love monsters and stopped aging at about 12. MY daughter has some of my Universal Monster toys in her room, as a matter of fact. My wife on the other hand, she thinks I'm a complete dork. But hey, I can't please everybody in my house.

QUOTE(mr_genius @ Nov 15, 2005 -> 10:35 PM) I thought it would be P Diddy again. Duh...it's just "Diddy" now.

OMG!!! That is soooo friggin' cool and brilliant all at the same time!!! I told my wife about it the second I went to the link! I do believe I will be buying three in the not too distant future. One for each kid, and one for my wife who works nights. Thank you a million times for the link Steff!!!

QUOTE(The Critic @ Nov 15, 2005 -> 07:30 PM) The KKK and Al-Qaeda must have been out back having a smoke.... Although I've rarely felt older at a show - I felt like it was me, my friend, a guy with a bald spot and 3,000 13-to-19-year-olds. Why do I get the feeling tomorrow you will be changing your screen name to "Cool Mom".

To this day I won't swear around my parents, and I'm 35!!! LOL!!!

Having everybody to my house. That means my sister and her 4 kids, my in-laws, my sister in-law and her fiance, my wifes aunt and uncle, my wifes Grandma, possibly my Mom and possibly my Dad. So that means: about 18 people in my house for that day. After dinner it will break down to the usual cards and drinking. Then in the morning I will hopefully be heading out for BLACK FRIDAY!!! I just learn the word and I'm getting all "flashy" with it.

I guess the smiley and pure idiocy of the comment wasn't enough. Now it's green.

QUOTE(Steff @ Nov 15, 2005 -> 12:45 PM) Madison is his daughter.. I'm pretty sure I'll know her. I'll be right back. I guess I broke the rules and it wasn't very obvious...

What's even sadder is that Steff probably wouldn't know the kid from anybody else, but she knows Southsider for a few years and probably knows him personally. Now this new person comes along, and it's all "what have you done for me lately?". I guess we know what friendship means to Steff.

Last year my wife and I were at our first store by 5AM. It was the first year that we did it, but by 10AM we were pretty much done with our shopping. It was a ton of fun, even though I was hungover from the night before. But if you go to the right stores first (the ones that tend to get the biggest crowds such as Best Buy) and then move on over to the lesser stores as the day wears on (K-Marts, Targets never seen to fill up too bad) you will avoid the most rush. We hit Meijers 15 minutes after opening, and we got the last of numerous items! I got in line to check out while my wife shopped. Then when she was done, I went and she stood. The line took about 45 minutes to get through, but while we stood, we shopped.

What's Black Friday? Is that the day after Thanksgiving? If so, thanks for the link!

A little odd, yes, but I bet if you used the "N" word it will also be deleted out. A "Nazi" is an actual title, the words that are booted are words used to offend on a personal basis.

It's not really censorship on a personally owned message board. It's an attempt to not offend people with offensive remarks and to try and make a place enjoyable for all. It's known as a crazy little word called "respect".

LOL!!! Those are pretty dang funny! My evaluation is coming up. I think I need to give this to my boss to come up with some ideas for me.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Nov 15, 2005 -> 04:09 AM) Reality shows = t3h sUx0rz. See, I could eventually figure out "Pw3nd", but that one up there I am afraid I will never be able to read.

That's all the controversy was over. A shop owner sold it to a kid, and the kids parents found it. Biafra's story of the raid into his house on his second spoken word album is friggin' hysterical. I also don't think the comparison to the KKK or Al Qaeda (whatever) is accurate. Heck, I wouldn't even compare the KKK to Al Kaida or even Ore Ida. The KKK is a shadow of what it may have once upon a time have been. The Al Don Quixote gang are actually kind of scary. Green Day just kind of sucks.

Just out of curiosity, what does she looks like? These people rarely look like you expect them to.

Heh, and when I read the first post, I was trying to figure out why anybody was bringing poor ol' Billy Joel into this discussion.

In the "Accessories" section: Ummmm, both of my kids use those. Well, my daughter who is 8 doesn't use one any more, but my son sure does. It's funny how there is no middle of the road with the harness. People either praise us and tell us how wonderful the thing is, or they tell us it is virtual child abuse. My only response is that I would much rather be safe then to turn around after only 5 seconds and find my son missing. If you have kids, you know how easy it is for them to sneak away, no matter how close you watch them.
