  1. I am a child of 90's rock, so for me there is nothing better. I swear to god there is no alt rock song from the 90s that I don't know, I think I've literally heard it all.

     

    This is the first song I can remember hearing on the radio in the 90s. I was 8 (I know right?) and it was all down hill for me from there. B-)

     

     

    About 4 years ago I went on a search to rediscover a lot of 90s music that I remembered but had no idea who did it or what it was. It was quite an adventure. A couple gems including:

    That was a nice little trip. I'm a little older but still like a lot of that music.

     

    The whole time I kept saying,"where's that Spacehog tune?"...and there it was.

     

     

    EDIT:I found the comment from the One More Astronaut chat kinda funny,"Canada! Thats a dirty of the commonwealth isnt it? " That's just funny.

  2. As senior advisor and site historian, I am pleased to announce the site has undergone a format change. It's now WINE, all whine, all the time. I was going to announce it in an LB-style animated press conference, but I'll be damned if can figure out how to do it! LB is a genius.

    Wine, and whine, gives me a headache.

  3. Please clarify. There's three people I've covered thus far, including the guy who made a lucid observation on the whole matter.

    I meant the two in your plus/minus. I won't comment on the preacher.

     

    :thumbsup: to 11.

     

     

     

    No Sabres playoffs just sucks.

  4. No, but I am well aware of the controversy surrounding the question. There is no denying that he had an agenda.

     

    what someone had to say about it.

    My complaint is that Evangelical Christians complain when some ELSE has an agenda. Oh, the irony.

     

    By the way, I find BOTH of their intolerance equally as repulsive.

  5. Why does it take so long to recover from 4 days of very little sleep? I've been back to the real world for about 4 days now, but I'm still dead tired. I guess I'll just have to sleep this entire weekend.

    Only sleep, huh?

     

    When you poison your body as bad as I'm guessing you did as well, it takes time to recover. Wait 'til you're forty.

  6. No Sabre's playoff games really sucks. I'm actually a little surprised at how strongly I feel about it, but it really sucks.

     

     

    Now, from the obvious to the mundane. I know that Children's fundraising has been brought up before, but it has to be mentioned again. I was driving through a town and got stopped at a light. Someone comes up to the window asking for money for the schools softball team. I never carry cash so I couldn't contribute. No offense, but how much is a glove and a couple of bats. Anyway, at every light for the next 2 miles or so were these people. I felt bad at first, but after 2 miles of the Begger's Gauntlet, I was glad I didn't have any money and wanted them to just go away. I'm still trying to figure out how they are different from the window washing bums.

  7. I was watching the game on NHLN last night. It was the TSN feed of the Calgary game. It was in HD but I noticed that it just didn't look right to me. I then noticed that there was the banner across the top of the picture that has the score and time on it. Fine. But then I noticed that it was not at the top of the screen. It was actually down a bit and the picture above it was in shadow. Whenever play was in the middle of the ice you could not see anything on the far side of the rink because of this stupid banner.

     

    So my complaint is more of a question. What kind of jackass says to themselves,"Ya know, that HD picture is just too darn big. I think we should cover almost an eighth of it."? Oh yeah, TV producers who cant get out of their own way. And I did measure it. They covered up almost an eighth of the picture :doh:

  8. I was sick of the word "bracket" even before Sunday. It's making me :sick: at this point.

     

     

    I HATE MARCH MADNESS!!

     

     

    If a game winning basket with no time on the clock didn't happen every third game, I might actually get excited over it.

     

    And what's with all the teams. Who cares about Laramie Ag/Tech vs. Peoria Clown College.

  9. Now that we're on to traffic...The Four Way Stop. It's just not that difficult. The first to stop - the first to go. If two people stop at the same time, the one on the right goes first. It's that easy.

     

    Every day, on the way to and from work, I hit this intersection that is quite busy and there is always some dope gummin' up the works.

     

     

     

    Yes, I'm complaining about the nine extra seconds it takes me to get home from work.

  10. While I am very grateful to still have a job, I will voice a complaint here that layoffs have left us with half the people to do the same amount of work ... and in some cases they laid off the wrong damn people.

    Also, no offense SwampD, but while I am complaining, Super Bowl is two words ....

    I hate having to fix posts.

  11. I have a few today.

     

    First. It realy bothers me that ESPN gave the Bite Me game so much time when they usually never even cover hockey. Just another example for the baseball elitists over there to show everyone what a Boorish sport hockey is.

     

    Next. Why can't companies just say "Super Bowl" in their commercials. I know that there are copyright issues, but who cares. It's all free advertising for the NFL anyway so why do they care. It just sounds stupid to me when they have to say "Big game" in their ads when we all know they mean "Super Bowl".

     

    And finally. The Canadians are 2nd in the NHL for power play opportunities. Gee, is the league trying to help them out in their 100th year?...hmmm

  12. My daughter started throwing up(among other things) last friday during the Sabre's game. It lasted six hours. My wife started throwing up(among other things) sunday at 11am and I started at 12pm. It lasted six hours for both of us and we are STILL feeling it. This stomach virus that's going through the NYC area is like nothing I have ever experienced before.

     

    All I really wanted for Christmas was a yule Log. No such luck.

  13. #2. Why is it at Christmastime the world feels the need to empty all mental patients from thier institutions and hand them all drivers licenses on the way out?

    When I first read this today I was at home, on a cumfy couch, with a cup of coffee, and I thought it was kinda funny.

     

     

    Then I drove to work, and realized that truer words have never been writen here.

  14. I am so sick and tired of worrying about my teams leaving town. It's hard enough to be a Sabres or Bills fan, but to always have that hanging over our heads makes it even more difficult. I don't want to hear,"well , just be glad that you have a team to root for." BS ! We're stuck in a Crap22. They wont make any changes if we keep supporting the team, but if we don't support the team then they will move it so we have to keep supporting it. I don't think any other fan-bases have to deal with this mindf%#&.

  15. It really sucks that so many people are losing their jobs because of the economy and it is even a bigger kick in the nuts that it is happening around the holidays!

    We just went through a round of layoffs today. I'm safe(for the time being) but, boy, it sure isn't a fun place to be today.

  16. Here's a complaint -- not only did the NFL games suck today, but the halftime shows? Jesse McCartney and the Jonas Brothers? Seriously? Is the NFL trying to branch out into that 9-to-15-year-old screaming 'tween girls demographic? I mean seriously - were there any NFL fans - hardcore or casual - that saw the halftime lineup and said "ooh, good - they got the Jonas Brothers."

    It must be nice to have some sound financial backing because not only do the Jonas Brothers suck, but man, are they effin ugly. It was bad enough to hear them from the other room. But then to go in and see them, I'm not sure what was worse.
