  1. Video Killed the Radio Star "What is . . . the first song played on MTV?" Correct, please choose again
  2. And of course I've seen a lot of places I've been around the world I've seen some pretty faces Been with some beautiful girls But after all I've witnessed one thing still amazes me Just like a miracle you have to see to believe 'Cause God blessed Texas with His own hand Brought down angels from the promised land Gave 'em a place where they could dance If you wanna see heaven brother here's your chance I've been sent to spread the message God blessed Texas First He lit sunshine Then He made the waters deep Then He gave us moonlight For all the world to see Well everybody knows that the Lord works in mysterious ways He took a rest then on the very next day God blessed Texas with His own hand Brought down angels from the promised land Gave 'em a place where they could dance If you wanna see heaven brother here's your chance I've been sent to spread the message God blessed Texas God blessed Texas with His own hand Brought down angels from the promised land Gave 'em a place where they could dance If you wanna see heaven brother here's your chance Well I've been sent to spread the message God blessed Texas Well I've been sent to spread the message God blessed Texas Well I've been sent to spread the message Mmm...God blessed Texas
  3. I wasn't going to post this because I figure y'all will be too envious. Please pay attention to the bold reference. Texas, our Texas! All hail the mighty State! Texas, our Texas! So wonderful so great! Boldest and grandest, Withstanding ev'ry test; O Empire wide and glorious, You stand supremely blest. [Refrain] God bless you Texas! And keep you brave and strong, That you may grow in power and worth, Thro'out the ages long. Texas, O Texas! Your freeborn single star, Sends out its radiance to nations near and far. Emblem of freedom! It sets our hearts aglow, With thoughts of San Jacinto and glorious Alamo. [Refrain] Texas, dear Texas! From tyrant grip now free, Shines forth in splendor your star of destiny! Mother of heroes! We come your children true, Proclaiming our allegiance, our faith, our love for you. [Refrain] When the state flag is displayed during a performance of "Texas, Our Texas", all individuals present, except those in uniform, should stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. Individuals in uniform should salute at the first note of the song, and retain this position until the last note. Individuals who are wearing a headdress that is easily removeable should remove it with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, with the hand over the heart. Individuals who are not citizens of Texas should simply stand at attention. If the state flag is not displayed during a performance of the song, those present should face toward the music and act in the same manner as they would if the flag were displayed there. If both are to be performed, the state song is played after the national anthem.
  4. Dragnet became my favorite comedy when Nick started the reruns. We would watch it at Santos in Schaumburg and whenever you would get the head nod, we would all chug.
  5. As a husband and father of two I have a hard time with our custom of having the spouse decide. If she was to recover what would this guy do? Leave his girlfriend? Unfortunantly spouses come and go in this society but giving birth is forever. I'm supporting parents positions in these types of matters, no matter what their position is. I should also say if it was my decision, I would probably want to see her go peacefully. It's a shame that the option is starving her to death and not some sort of assisted death. I'm wondering how many of you that support the husband have kids? The courts will step in and allow visitation.
  6. I believe the phrase that pays is sexual harrasement
  7. We coined a few mid season nicknames, which was your favorite Tub-O Goo Billy Botch :fyou E-Lo Cy-Lo
  8. At first I thought it may be small ball vs. home run but judging by total bases, which I think is a better tool than average (debate?) we ranked 4th and we ranked 4th in ERA. If you had to point to a performance stat what would it be? I know it's a valid point that we couldn't beat Detroit, why couldn't we beat Detroit. I think once we isolate the couple performance issues we have a better idea of off season priorities. At least that's what I would be doing if I was Kenny and Co. I prefer objective evidence (avg with runners in scoring position) vs subjective (player X was a disturbance in the club house)
  9. Make sure she knows you've noticed her fanny Be Good and don't dip your pen in the company ink. When it goes bad it goes very bad. When it goes good it goes very good. There is no middle. There has to be other possibilities out there.
  10. drilled into their skulls . . . wasn't there a guy in Milwaukee working on that process but failed?
  11. How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?
  12. After that long does she fog a mirror? A first kiss on State Street decorated for Valentines Day would be very romantic and something PA would recomend. good luck
  13. over 9,000 page views. Damn that's good. I'll bet his mom and his girlfriend's mom are so proud of their little man. KW inquired ~ he wanted the pants
  14. I'm trying to resolve in my mind the home runs vs. singles and asked in another thread where to find total team bases. The big shots where fun when they came in bunches but maddening when we'd get 1st and third and go quietly into the night.
  15. dammit I almost choked on a Jolly Rancher
  16. I'm too lazy in one case and hope the other's already been done. 1. Which team led MLB in attendance per win? A sort of gage of fan support. 2. Does anyone track total team bases and where can it be found?
  17. Oh no removing seats How are we going to out draw the Cubs and sell 3,500,000 tickets next year
  18. He didn't know you also invited Sam and Ella for dinner BTW I can't believe this entire post went by wothout at least :puke :puke :fyou

    Aboz post

    Ahhh, someone posted something inflamitory, got banned and were not at each other's throats I'm so happy and even the smileys are getting some
  20. With all the work I may come around and say selling the naming rights was an ok thing. I'll never say I like it!
  21. We had a couple really good 5th starters; Buerhle and Colon. I think we needed a #2 and #3 starter. Seriously, I hadn't really considered the 5th starter issue, I was more down on the lack of a reliable closer and only one hitter over .300. But I'm starting to be a believer. Only one starter over achieved, Colon and Buerhle had sub-par by their standards.
  22. You got it all Oscar Gamble Rhibbie and Rhubarb That is my favorite WS Era.
  23. No way, can't watch those shows at all. The only one that kind of sucked me in was the mole towards the end.
  24. Actually you could play: We are the Champions Another One Bites the Dust And especially for Steve Bartman "Your my Best Friend"
  25. SEE I knew this thread would be a hit, Moochy sing somethin so your a part of it, this will go down as the best thread in SoxTalk history This is for all us Sox fans....a little ditty from Neil Diamond: ".......And you don't win me titles, anymore." mooch A+ I noticed no one is singing We are the Champions
