  1. I can never understand these kinds of things from a business perspective. You're making money hand over fist. Just have other people run the place for you, for fuck's sake. It's not that hard.
  2. Best line was "wake your ass up early, put the fucking dumplings down..." This man knows Jamaicans! http://www.worldstarhiphop.com/videos/video.php?v=wshhX0W3wT7D1vDosH3b
  3. Glad you didn't fall asleep at the wheel. I would have felt guilty, even though I kept telling you last night to get some sleep. Then boom, another message from Brent...
  4. For Tyll. Some of these made me chuckle a little. http://www.backcountry.com/explore/the-top-10-reasons-not-to-visit-montana-ever?cmp_id=sm_fcbkexp37
  5. ^ I mean, sure... if you're not into scotch, eh Mikey? But bacon, oh ya that works!
  6. Me too, Al. Really hits home. You've got to make it count every frickin' day, man.
  7. Really sorry to hear that, Mikey. My condolences to you and all of his friends and family. Will lift a glass to his honor. Sucks.
  8. I'm not a big hockey guy, but I do enjoy watching. Just noticed that Montreal was the only Canadian team to make the playoffs. Not much representation there. 1/7th of the contingent, when 16/30 teams overall make the playoffs. Toronto and Vancouver were both essentially .500 teams and the rest of them were basement dwellers. Has this been the norm in recent years? If so, what is driving it? Small market teams (Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, and Ottawa) having a hard time competing financially for the top players in the league? Have player salaries escalated out of control like in baseball, basketball and football with free agency or the like? Just curious what the back story is, or if it was just a down year for the Canadian teams.
  9. I watch a ton of sports on my laptop at: http://gofirstrow.eu/ It's a great free cite, once you get over the fact that it can be kind of fickle at times... oh, and the fact that you have to close all sorts of pop up screens. Actually, the only thing I pay for anymore is the MLB.com package, which gives unlimited live and archived access to every MLB game.

  11. Posted on Facebook by a female former student:
  12. Snoop's message to the racist LA Clipper's owner: http://www.thewrap.com/snoop-dogg-sends-message-chickens-t-motherf-er-la-clippers-owner/ Couldn't agree more with you, Snoop! Well said. If you haven't heard the audio clip of this puke bag, you can find it at the link below. Truly disgusting and despicable. The NBA needs to suspend him immediately, and force the Clippers into receivership if necessary. Fucking Jim Crow piece of shit. http://www.thewrap.com/la-clippers-owner-caught-asking-girlfriend-bring-black-people-games/
  13. Found this on YouTube via Facebook, the full concert without all of the overdubbing and post-processing that mucked up the commercial version that I've been listening to for nearly 40 years now. Whether there is a God or not, I sure hope this gets put out on vinyl soon... very soon! I could care less about the 'footage' in terms of the video, it's the audio that sounds amazing! PART ONE: PART TWO: PART THREE:
  14. Looking forward to a new Nickel Creek album for the first time in 7 years... released on April 1, but I'm just finding out about it. http://www.amazon.com/A-Dotted-Line-Nickel-Creek/dp/B00IMUXK2K/ref=pd_sim_m_6?ie=UTF8&refRID=0CKK3METMCZ8APRWKB27
  15. It was actually Julius Caesar who said it first. That's why they named the tossed salad after him.
  16. Happy perfect date, everyone!
  17. I hear you, man. "Out of the blue and into the black. Once you're gone you can't come back..." According to this article, Needle of Death is actually a cover (as are all of the other tracks on... gulp... did he actually cut an entire album of one-take covers? and is he actually now going to release an "audiophile" version of it?) http://www.stereogum.com/1677874/watch-neil-young-cover-bert-janschs-needle-of-death-in-jack-whites-voice-o-graph-booth/video/ If nothing else, you have to give him a nod for his creativity and authenticity. He's become more than a little nuts as he's aged, however (IMO, of course).
  18. He's either completely brilliant or completely off his rocker... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6H47jI6xanA
  19. Hawks defended the home ice again. Now they need one in St. Louis!
  20. The humor value has clearly reached the point of diminishing returns. Can someone please close this thread?
