  3. QUOTE(StrangeSox @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 01:20 PM) They need to get their act together and play some non-Lollapalooza chicago shows, damnit! Not sure if its been mentioned, but if you like Wilco check out Tweedy's side project "Loose Fur" they played in columbia, such a good show. Nels Cline...oh man. I can't say enough how good he is. Turns Kidssmoke into a song that isn't long enough! QUOTE(Capn12 @ Jun 15, 2006 -> 08:51 AM) That Gnarls Barkley performance at the MTV Video Awards is a classic now IMO. Anyone that hasn't seen it should check it out. I thought the top of the pops performance was better...from what people were telling me i thought it would have a lot more energy...i didn't realize cee lo just stands there like a statue in a different costume every performance... that said great pop album. I love when good albums get radio play.

    QUOTE(Soxy @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 03:53 AM) That sounds like the fall, with the lawyer in the bar? yessum...i really liked it, moreso for the fact when i thought to myself how hard and ambitious it would be to write like that and maintain interest. KG, i still have to go pick it up, i'm excited...i'm going on a roadtrip to maryland this weekend and i want to knockout both.. (haha, i remember i first got the book the fall because it has the same name as a band i love.)

    QUOTE(Soxy @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 02:53 AM) Awesome book, but The Fall is better (and one of my all-time faves) i started to read the fall, like 10 pages, but i miscalculated how much time i would've had to read when it was finals week and i had to return it. I went to the library by me, but i guess its the western branch of the aurora public library, and their selection was so small...but i saw this and grabbed it. on second thought maybe it wasn't the fall...it was...lets see, it was a conversation but you only read one side of it...does that ring a bell
  10. on baseball tonight, on touchem all, they had konerkos home run with the text at the bottom of "ONLY his 2nd homerun in the past 3 games"... tough standards.
  11. I'm going to take a shower... this is my first post in the game thread

    david cross is awesome. His material is so story-based and he's such a good speaker that i never get tired of him.

    QUOTE(Friend of Nordhagen @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 04:36 AM) I think the real question here is if Freddy will be awake for the first inning. Most of the time, he's pretty sleepy in the early going. You can get away with that as a pitcher, but not at first. So I propose that AJ cover first on all grounders hit during the first innning, except the ones hit to Iguchi, who should just run over from his position and take those unassisted. This approach will have an initially unseen benefit: Tadahito will lead the league in putouts, becoming the first Japanese second baseman to ever do so. Bud Selig will make a special presentation on Opening Day next year, honoring number 15 for a great accomplishment. I really believe in this plan. why aren't we managers yet?
  14. QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 03:17 PM) Duke lacrosse assholes? It was being corrupted by several athletes who were falsely accused of rape by a stripper? I dont even see how that makes sense? Ding! the duke lacrosse players have been alleged to have been the biggest douche bags at the school, guilty or not of their crime, and therefore have become the symbol of asshole "jocks". I was not implying that the duke lacrosse assholes corrupted this school. Anyone with a reasonable intellect could have figured that out.

    finally saw shaun of the dead. So brilliant. Even being much of a comedy, the fact that they had character development and you cared about the characters made it 10x better than most honest scary movies out there.

    QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 04:37 PM) I'm reading only two right now: Psychotic Reactions and Carburator Dung by Lester Bangs i just ordered that from the library... just started the stranger by camus
  17. i predict they won't black out... haha, oh man that's classic. Cause i already know. Thats the joke.
  18. man our offense just looks so confident...imagine without those crazy double plays...but they happened so blah
  19. QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 11:07 PM) More like Martin Luther Queen, I'd say. . . haha, well played, sir, well played!

    QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 12:21 AM) Which, interestingly, is roughly as useful as Garcia and Garland are on the mound now. no kidding... at least garland has a useful nickname...
  21. QUOTE(chuckywang @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 12:20 AM) Who was the fifth starter last year? El Duque or Brendan McCarthy? the duque until about september i believe...maybe it was late august.
