    That is gross!
  2. I was waiting for a driver to pass out in that heat yesterday. Glad to see they were all okay for the most part.
  3. And Brian can tell you all about go 100+ on the DR as well...
  4. Your car and an 800+ horsepower car are horses of a different color.
  5. NASCAR should have parked this b****'s ass weeks ago. He will injure someone with his reckless driving yet. Between Busch, Rusty and Rudd (an incident at the end of the race yesterday), someone is bound to take him out soon since NASCAR feels his behaivor hasn't warranted a parking, fine or points deduction.
  6. I know what you mean. I talk to customers from across the US and abroad and when they ask where the offices are located and when they hear we are in the Suburbs of Chicago, they immediately ask if I am a Cubs fan. :puke
  7. Nosferatu! I have the 1970's remake and yes, I saw the remake with Defoe and he definitely hit the nail on the head. As for the Lon Chaney movie you mentioned, I have wanted to see that - they covered bits of that movie in 'Man of a Thousand Faces.' I have seen 'Birth of a Nation' as well and agree with your comments. There is another one that I have been trying to remember the name of and can't - from what I can remember, it's early 1900s (maybe even late 1890s) and it shows a moon and a landing (in the eye of the moon no less) and such. Does anyone remember the name by any chance?

    Silent Movies

    Do any of you watch silent movies? I used to watch them all the time, but haven't in a while. Lon Chaney is my favorite silent movie actor (which is why Cagney's 'A Man Of A Thousand Faces' is one of my favorite older movies). As for older movies, ones that I like are William Pratt's (better known as Boris Karloff) 'The Mummy,' Gone With The Wind, Wizard of Oz, Various Disney full length cartoons and movies, All of the Marx brothers movies (Viaduct? Why not a chicken?!), Singing In the Rain, Brigadoon, Yankee Doodle Dandy, West Side Story, Captain Blood, Sea Hawk, The Adventures of Robin Hood, Damn Yankees, The Lou Gehrig Story, Arsenic and Old Lace, Citizen Cane, Casablanca, The Ghose and Mrs. Muir, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Guys and Dolls, various Cecil B. DeMille movies, 12 Angry Men, The Day The Earth Stood Still, The Quiet Man, Invasion of the Body Snatchers - 1956 (never have been able to look at a watermelon in quite the same way after seeing this movie), The Music Man, Psycho, Rosemary's Baby, The Sound of Music and To Kill A Mockingbird. I know there are plenty of great ones that have slipped my mind, but what are your favorite Silent Movies/Older Movies?
  9. I got a charlie horse just reading about that.
  10. happy birthday all!
  11. You most definitely need to give Cotts a shot at this point.
  12. Unreal that he would admit to that. Isn't that something that should be kept to himself?!
  13. I was hoping someone would 'see' that part of my post!
  14. It was b****in' cold Saturday and I was only there for the first game (the lady that drove didn't want to stay for the second so I had to go). As soon as the weather warms up (and as long as they keep winning) people will come. I have a few games I am planning on going to, but since one is with my sister and her son, we have to wait until it is much warmer out.
  15. :puke Any doctor that suggests plastic surgery is a doctor you run from and fast. I may not have a ton of self esteem but I am glad I have enough to be comfortable with who I am.
  16. I listen mostly to 97.9 on my way to work. But lately I have been having to channel surf more than usual. Bruce Wolf's jiz fest over the Cubs (even the morning after they lose - like this morning) is beyond nausiating... He mentions briefly that the Sox win and goes on and on about the Cubs losing that it is no big deal that they lost to the Cardinals. :puke
  17. lol nothing to be sorry about, just some opinions there to read on this subject.
  18. Tree Trimmer Killed By Wood Chipper All I can say is :puke :puke :puke :puke :puke.
  19. I tried that site, but it takes forever to load up at work (where I am now). No offense taken - I thought they looked off, but didn't have time to research it. Basically all I was trying to say is I don't see what many seem to see in Harris. Maybe more time is all he needs ...
