This is still my favorite, event though it's for a game.

These are wonderful in that it takes so few to get the right image. The one I did took hundreds to get right.

I'm shocked Elvis wasn't in there...and N'Sync was. You're right, I had to kick myself a lot.

I'm getting a kick out of the comments saying buying is better because you don't have neighbors one wall over or above/below you. You can rent houses, you know.

I've bought two houses and rented two and I have to say I'd rather rent. We've negotiated lowering our rent by making improvements on the home which I don't consider a waste of money. If you want to make something better and it makes your home a nice place to be, it's not a waste of money. It's only a waste if you say it is.

Also, the last house we bought we had to sell to avoid foreclosure because we both lost our jobs. Now our credit is bad and we don't have a choice. I'd love to eventually own and the pay off a property, just not happening now.

600 member fan club? Impressive. Most impressive.

My two brothers in law had this happen. One was a guitar player wanting to follow in the footsteps of Hendricks and so went to the UK. A card from the other b-i-l wished him good luck and hope he got work. It was mostly a joke seeing as the guy was there to play music and be on basically a pilgrimage. However, security didn't think it funny and turned him away. He never got to England to complete his odyssey.

Having the benefit of being a parent on my side, if I ever adopted and a few years later was told the child was wrongly taken from his/her parents, you can bet your sweet tookus I'd be letting the child go back. "Think of the other parents." Bull.

The only way a sequel would work is to have a new cast + Keaton. The other family has moved on.

I vote for BEER as well. And not in the "hey let's all have one and get wasted...WOOO!" sense but the "it predates most civilizations" sense.

WOOO!

I've got the no place like (home) one and the I won't fix your computer one. I need #24 like yesterday.

Stuff like this is so insanely simple it makes me want to punch myself in the throat.

I'm surprised there was no one tweeting about the 30 seconds of pr0n from Arizona.

Aversion to sex amazes me. I understand expectations of decency, but it always leads me to ponder the reticence we have toward zealously clinging to it.

This may cover verses or the chorus, but not necessarily both at the same time. That's a test of a well put together piece of music, one that changes. I also think it's very Western, but my scope of Eastern music is limited. Bridges and changes, while moving to another set of three/four chords, does add to the richness of a song. So, yeah, it's not that simple.
