QUOTE (Felix @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 11:04 AM) (yes, I'm sick) Alone in the hissing laboratory of his wishes, Mr Pugh Felix minces among bad vats and jeroboams, spinneys of murdering herbs, and mixes for Mrs Pugh Felix a venomous porridge unknown to toxicologists which will scald and viper through her until her ears fall off like figs, her toes grow big and black as balloons, and steam comes screaming out of her navel.

QUOTE (knightni @ Oct 31, 2009 -> 02:12 AM) Holy s***, I've been watching this cheesy Brazilian horror movie on IFC called Strange Hostel of Naked Pleasures. It's so bad that it's good. haha! As a closet fan of bad art house cinema, this one is a gem — particularly the opening 15 minutes or so. Ed Wood would have been jealous.

QUOTE (2nd_city_saint787 @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 10:50 AM) wonder if ill match anyone, anyone here listen to hardcore stuff?? Or am i the only 22 year old here that doesnt listen to the radio? Absolutely. . . hardcore Zappa.

Day or night he'll be there anytime at all.

Some of John's Double Fantasy stuff was intentionally anachronistic to begin with, harkening back to doo-wop days etc. So now, yeah, some of it is doubly-anachronistic with the 80s overproduction on top of the throwback musical cliches. Sort of like ELO stuff, but good.

Believe. Dr. Robert, he's a man you must believe.

QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 10:06 AM) Not my number one, but definitely in my top five actually. You believe in this Fifth Beatle hooey then too, huh?

Zenn-La makes me worry. It was was saved from destruction at the hands of the Devourer of Worlds when Norrin Radd offered his life in service as the Silver Surfer, first Herald of Galactus.

QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 09:53 AM) I wonder if my strong support for Yoko Ono will finally get her to crack this list. Yes, if you put her down as picks #1 through #10.

Xenopus laevis makes me worry, as far as African frogs go, because it has no tongue.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Nov 3, 2009 -> 10:40 AM) I thought churches that are tax exempt couldnt be politically active and tell their people what to do. I know where I work that the preachers couldnt not say "vote for this guy" or "oppose this policy". I believe if the church is not specifically endorsing or materially supporting a specific candidate or party then there are loopholes in how they are allowed to advocate. In this particular case, I don't see stuffing the bulletins as being much different than preaching from the pulpit since the message is consistent and fundamental to the tenets of the church; Catholics oppose abortion. I personally dislike churches bullying parishoners to tell them what to do, but they do it all the time, and here church moral teachings happen to dovetail with an opposition stance to a proposed bill.

Traditional enameled painted coins use a high-temperature firing process that you may or may not be able to replicate at home, but good luck.

Verboten to mention that play by name backstage in the theatre community.

I see we're alphabetizing backwards again. Just try that again.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Nov 3, 2009 -> 04:09 PM) You could list solo artist. Hell, I had Jimi Hendrix on my list. I did too, but in my mind that includes the Experience stuff, band of Gypsies, and solo/mixed lineup groups. But for folks like Lennon and McCartney, a vote for the Beatles is not a vote for Wings or Plastic Ono Band, or a vote for Gabriel-era Genesis is not a vote for Gabriel as solo artist. And a vote for Milli should in no way be construed as a vote for Vanilli.

I think I split out Todd Rundgren and Utopia who both made my list, but FZ was the Mothers (apologies to Jimmy Carl Black the Indian of the Group) and yeah, his whole body of work falls under the category FZ.

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Nov 3, 2009 -> 03:53 PM) Incidentally, I had Mothers of Invention in the top 10.... Motherly Love!

BOOM Chaka Laka Laka BOOM Chaka Laka Laka BOOM Chaka Laka Laka BOOM!

QUOTE (Felix @ Nov 3, 2009 -> 03:12 PM) Does funk count as rock? I'm going to assume yes while putting this list together I would assume so, and Chucklehead just missed my list.

QUOTE (Felix @ Nov 3, 2009 -> 03:05 PM) I can guarantee I'm the only one who puts Frank Zappa at #1 (although Jim might have him on his list) Also at #1 on my list. And I have already sent my lsit to Ni so he can confirm. FZ!

Doesn't do IM, but maybe Tex can send you smoke signals or a carrier pigeon.

American tropics and subtropics comprise tyhe native range of D. rotundus, one of the more derived ("evolved") microchiropterans.

Wied-Neuwied, 1826, is the authority attributed to the senior synonomy of Desmodus rotundus, the common vampire bat.
