Quantify 'old'.....

Judas Priest - Livin' After Midnight Meatloaf - Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad.

Paul Stanley.

Alice Cooper from "Welcome To My Nightmare" - "Steven":"The Awakening". Creeeeeeeeeeeeepy.......

We did when it was far less expensive, but when you factor in the 4.00 X 2 toll, we only fill up when we go over for a shopping excursion....

If I lived in Maui, I wouldn't care if it was a hundred bucks a gallon.

I'm with you. It hit 1.09 a litre here, well over the 4.00 a gallon mark.....

Chuck Berry. No question his place in the top 5 is deserved.

Not really an instant messaging thing, but one of the neighborhood kids dropped off a (poorly) structured 'flyer' advertising that he'd cut your lawns / shovel your walks for a fee. It advertises his phone number and e-mail. I had to laugh.. i_m_ur_master at blah blah blah .com. "A" for effort.....

Maybe so, but if you haven't had one in a long time, you'd probably pay 10X that much, no?

Jeff Burrow's parents live up the street from me. No, seriously. Jeff Burrow's parents are annoying about their son, Jeff Burrows.

The 'Hip are HUGE here. I'm not that much of a fan, "New Orleans Is Sinking" is a good tune (although hard to listen to post-Katrina). The Tragically Hip have a following here similar in structure to the Grateful Dead.

I'm hooked on generic Viagra. There's Mycoxafloppin, Mycoxafailin, Mydixadrupin, Mydixarizin, Dixafix, and of course, Ibepokin. Happy Wednesday.

Ace Frehley.

The following is for the amusement of Rayzor only. The sound you hear is a dead rock star spinning in his grave over the fact this footage is available.... Bon Scott as you've never seen him. I'm surprised he didn't rabbit punch the guy in front of him in the back of the head, do a rail, knock back a slug of Jack Daniels, grab the mic, howl, then ask if anyone in the audience had gonorrhea... Enjoy Rayzor...

I think a good example of a song being musically great but sucking lyrically is Kid Rock with Sheryl Crow, "Picture". The melody is good but mixing cocaine with church to me was like, milk and vinegar....

Probably because he chose to leave Canada and live in L.A. Not saying that is good nor bad, I'm not really a fan of his, but that is the general mood toward him. Rush are proud of Toronto and let everyone know it, Anne Murray has long been a resident of Springhill, N.S., people know it, Lightfoot has done plenty of songs about Canada and is proud of his Orillia roots, the Barenaked Ladies are intrinsically Canadian, mentioning all types of Canadian landmarks (the Danforth in "Old Apartment) and Canadiana (Kraft Dinner). Adams seems to make an effort to shed his Canadian roots. Which is fine, to each his own...

Mary Anne, weed, and a couple of her banana cream pies? That would be Nirvana Eternal.

I was at Buffett's Margaritaville in Negril back in '04. When the waitress asked for the order, I said (half in the bag), "I like mine with lettuce and tomato, Heinz 57 and french-fried potato. Big kosher pickle and a cold draught beer, good God Almighty, which way do I steer?". I had saved hard to get there, got there, had my moment. She looked at me dead-pan, and said "Yeah, that's original, never heard that before" and left. The most exciting thing about Margaritaville is the fact you are in Jamaica, there are topless girls on the beach, and you are in Jamaica. Other than that the food is nothing you haven't had at an Appleby's/TGI Fridays/insert the name of your favorite chain here. The souvenirs are criminally overpriced. And I love Buffett.

The original poster saw a story on CNN and shared it. End of the story.

I wasn't part of the Nazi-talk and was going to steer clear of it, but I don't think it matters when World War II ended. I can think of about 6 million other folks that don't think it matters either....

I read that over my lunch. Four fried chickens, and a Coke. And some dry white toast for my brother. over 300X Blue...

I remember the first time I saw this performed on Saturday Night Live, I had goosebumps and tears. Paul Simon with Ladysmith Black Mambazo. Diamonds On The Soles Of Her Shoes.

The only other country I'd rather have as a neighbor is maybe Switzerland because of the blondes that talk like the Swedish Chef. Other than that, the 'States make an awesome neighbor. I get through the border faster than a McDonalds Drive-Thru and the guy you talk to is more pleasant than the McDonalds guy. Like Chuck Berry sez, hamburgers sizzle on an open grille night and day. You can choogle up to one of those Sam's Club places and buy a vat of shampoo for a buck ninety nine. As for being brash, consider this: you go over there and there is an American flag everywhere. Small ones on windshields, Ginormous ones on flagpoles. Tattooed to their citizens, on the back of jackets, you name it. So over the top it's comical. On the flipside, in Canada, on bloody well Canada day (July 1st), your hard pressed to find one anywhere. At least they are proud. I am ashamed of the lack of patriotism over here. We got all proud of our nationality (for about ten minutes) over a G.D. beer commercial. As for their sanctimoniousness (blew the spelling, sorry, and I think it's the wrong choice of word), yeah they have that Limbaugh guy and O'Rilley, and what's-her-name there, Anne Coulter, but for each of those people, you have a Jon Stewart David Letterman Conan O'Brien Steven Colbert gleefully pointing out nightly what a stooge their president is. (And with a 29% approval rating, the citizenry lets the world know what they think of their prez.) Every time I see the shuttle take off I am envious to the nines of the 'States. I've been there when that damn thing took off and thought Damn lookit that. And they have built success on the back of failure. They put not one, but dig it, twelve men on the moon. And if you are one of those kooks that think it was a conspiracy, well, with your head that far up your arse you have your own set of problems. Their military is guided by their government and there is no doubt that perhaps the latest war is at the best, questionable, but the men and women that comprise that military force obey and serve their country. Our Canadian military (get this, it's 100% truth) hasn't the manpower, resources, or funds available to mobilize itself from St. John's New Brunswick to Vancouver. For those of you challenged geographically, that's one side of our country to the other. We rely on you for protection. No, really. I'm diving in Ohio next weekend. It takes me an hour and a half to get there. I'll pay the twelve bucks to get into the quarry, and Mike behind the counter will smile when he see's me and say "Hi Ken", and grin when I give him a box of Smarties (like M&M's, only Canadian). He'll shake my hand. My friend Mike. And I'll make my way down to the pit where I'll hook up with some pals from Michigan. And Illinois. And Ontario. They'll be happy to see me. And I'll be happy to see them. My friends. No one likes Americans? I think Ahmabigdickwad has anal/cranial inversion syndrome.

Tom Petty Walls Some days are diamonds Some days are rocks Some doors are open Some roads are blocked Sundowns are golden Then fade away But if I never do nothing I'm coming back some day Cause you got a heart so big It could crush this town And I can't hold out forever Even walls fall down All around your island There's a barricade It keeps out the danger Holds in the pain Sometimes you're happy And sometimes you cry Half of me is ocean Half of me is sky But you got a heart so big It could crush this town And I can't hold out forever Even walls fall down And some things are over Some things go on Part of me you carry And part of me is gone But you got a heart so big It could crush this town And I can't hold out forever Even walls fall down You got a heart so big It could crush this town And I can't hold out forever Even walls fall down
