I vote my dad in the last category. Some of them haven't worked since 1985...

The worst time to have a British accent is when somebody steals your notebook and you yell "Give me back my bloody pad!".

I thought I was the last person in the world to own a working Odessey...

I worked at a Wal-Mart parttime for a couple of years. They were always pretty strict about who could and couldn't use the lifts, balers, whatever. It's kinda funny that when I first read child-labor I didn't envision a 17-year-old throwing cardboard into a baler. Hell I was running lawnmower by the time I was 10. Meanwhile when I was 16 I worked at a bowling alley and had to shovel dirt for 8 hours in the middle of summer while getting paid minimum wage. At a bowling alley!!! When I came back the next day and was told to "grab a shovel" I walked out. There's some child labor for ya. My wife works 3rd shift at a KW Mobil and doesn't get a lunch break. I KNOW that is illegal.

For whom the Bell Tolls - Metallica It usually leads to some air guitar and air drums if I'm in a good mood.

Has anyone seen the new "deal" some gas stations are offering? It's like 2 cents cheaper if you pay with cash rather than credit card...

ta-da.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Oct 31, 2005 -> 10:32 AM) The source I took it from had no source. So there you go. I know about sourcing, believe me. I'm sure it's in some upstate NY paper. This story has been around for many, many years. I can't even remember if it started out as a true story...

What's that one at Great America that looks like a big U? I went on it and was prettty dissappointed. This one looks slightly better.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Oct 28, 2005 -> 09:50 AM) A lot of great things have come from Iowa, like, like, ahhhh, like ahhh, someone help me here, ahhh corn, yeah, corn. And I'm certain something else. A lot of my family. My mom was born there and my grandma is buried there.

I remember somebody changing this pic to say "you're welcome" on the sign after the famous "Josh Paul dropped third strike" play. It would be cool if it could just read "thank you" now.

She's constantly on the message board during the "from the cubicle articles". She defines the "I'd rather watch the Sox lose than the Cubs win" mentality.

I can't do that. I'm still living and dying with almost every pitch. I've pretty much given my heart and soul to this team and whatever happens will happen. I knew going in that it would hurt if they lose but if they win it will be so much sweeter.

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 10:43 AM) I bought the greatest hits CD back in 1991 after spring break. We went to Daytona Beach and for some reason everyone we ran into from other states loved journey. It became like our theme from spring break. I haven't listened to them in years though.... On a side note I saw a cover band ARRA and their lead singer sounded exactly like Steve Perry. haha I found their website and they have mp3's on there..one of them is "Don't Stop Believing" ARRA IIRC, sometime in the mid 90's Steve Perry went solo and the group replaced him with a guy that looked and sounded almost exactly like him.

I bought the Greatest Hits CD way back in 1992 or 1993. My first daughter was conceived with "Faithfully" and "Open Arms" on repeat playing in the background.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 01:18 AM) Someone mentioned Everett, When is the last time our vaunted DH had an extra base hit? The way he's been going he'll end up with Mike Caruso's nickname. My wife was asking about the DH rule and what happens when they go to Houston. When I told her we'll have the pitchers batting instead of Carl she said "well that sucks." I told her that the way Carl has been hitting lately I don't think it'll make much difference...

QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 09:46 AM) Sure they do. How long was "Saved By The Bell" on the air? How about "Beverly Hills 90210"? There was only one reason to watch either of those shows... Tiffani-Amber Thiessen Looking back at my replies in this thread I'm noticing a trend in my reasoning for favorite TV shows.

QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 11:57 AM) Is that the show with Jim Belushi? No. His show is called "According to Jim". The only good thing about the show is Courtney Thorne-Smith but even that's not enough to make me want to watch the show.

I'm pretty sure that picture has been floating around since the beginning of the playoffs...

QUOTE(RibbieRubarb @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 10:50 AM) You are now my favorite. By the way... Rooms are still available for Soxfest, just the Hotel/Ticket packages are sold out. So instead of paying the $249 for the package people can now pay $249 per night and HOPE that somebody has some extra passes for all three days (at $15 a piece). What a deal! Boy I'm glad I got my package early.

QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 09:20 AM) Addison, I always knew you were the man. With the Time Life releases, plus the bootlegs that I have acquired in amazing quality, I have every skit that aired on MTV, even a lot of unreleased stuff. s***, some of my favorite animated characters of all time are Todd, Mr. Anderson, Mr. Buzzcut, etc. Some of my favorite skits: "Bad Dog" "Lightning Strikes" "Leave It To Beavis" "Huh Huh Humbug" "It's A Miserable Life" "No Laughing" "Manners Suck" "Prank Call" This show is easily my favorite (the skits, not necessarily the music video commentary). It just caters to my sense of humor like nothing else can. I tried to check out "Family Guy". I like the baby and the dog, but that's about it. They are starting to come out on DVD now.

QUOTE(RibbieRubarb @ Oct 20, 2005 -> 09:01 AM) Yes...yes it's true. That man has no balls. (paraphrasing Bill Murray) Isuro Tanaka: "You know... you have no... you have no... MARBLES!" Cerrano: "Marbles?" Tanaka: "MARBLES! YOU HAVE NO MARBLES!"

Nothing Else Matters - Metallica That was the first song my wife and I danced to.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 09:53 PM) glow in the dark (strobe light effects?) Watch the movie Skindeep. IIRC, John Ritter gets arrested for "cock-fighting"
