    It's too bad either us or City will finish second. Both teams are having all-time great PL seasons. Both will finish with more than 90 points. Both will have a greater than +50 goal differential. Both teams will be around 25 goals allowed. Two great teams like this hardly ever happens.

    I feel sorry for kids today not knowing the excitement and anticipation of buying an album and going home to play it. Unwrapping the plastic and opening it up to take the disc it out. Everything is digital and streaming. Just clicks of a mouse or tapping on your phone screen and boom, you have the album. Then again, most young kids don't even really care about full albums. It's all about singular songs and playlists for them. I would agree aside from the unwrapping the cellophane off a CD or cassette. That shit was wrapped tighter than a virgin on prom night.

    Gomez isn't ready for this weekend though, right? I wouldn't mind Joe at LB in the first leg versus Porto. At least he gives us another option with Robbo out for that match.

    MADD wasn't nearly as powerful as they are now. I think they actually used Vince's case as part of their lobbying efforts.

    And then the gawddamn DJ talks over the intro to the song so whenever you want to listen to your mixtape with 867-5309 on it, you have to listen to the time and weather from 6 months prior.

    Haven't seen it discussed but the Miami Showband Massacre is really interesting. I can't imagine what those survivors must've felt in the days following the incident.

    See this system here? It's hi-fi. That means it's got the highest quality fidelity.

    Doesn't this hobby get damn expensive? My godsons are just now getting into them. I bought some for Christmas and was floored by how much they cost these days.

    A good needle solves the skipping issues and I enjoy the occasional pop. Records are how music is supposed to sound, IMHO. I love listening to records still and I enjoy going to the record store. There's always cool shit in there.

    In the early 80s, Alvin and his bros put out a number of albums like this. There was Urban Chipmunk, Chipmunk Rock, Chipmunk Punk and the Chipmunk's All Time Top 20 Golden Greats. I had every single one. I was a member of the fan club too. Framed my membership certificate and wore my Alvin pin on my shirt every day. Chipmunk Punk had a Billy Joel song and Refugee by Tom Petty on it. Very loose ties to Punk music. Sorry for the tread diversion.

    Honestly, it was probably a Muppets or Alvin and the Chipmunks record I would've bought with Christmas or birthday money. I used to listen to the Muppet Musicians of Bremen 24/7 when I was around 5 or 6. The first rock album I bought was Men at Work's Business as Usual. Man, I used to love Who Can It Be Now?

    Finished the Madeline McCann series last night. As if we didn't already know, the world is a pretty fucked up place. There's a special place in Hades for people that run cons on those dealing with tragedy.

    I thought it was ok. If you're looking to waste time and not think too much, this is the movie for you. Overall, I just thought it was pointless. If you're an 80's kid or a rock 'n roll fan, you've heard all of these stories multiple times. I'm not sure we needed yet another telling of it through yet another different medium. The acting was subpar. I smoked before and lol'd at several points because the acting was so bad. Tommy telling Nikki about his divorce from Heather Locklear and saying, "I think she's the one that got away, bro" made me laugh pretty fucking hard. I'm beginning to not like the look of Netflix movies too. They're all lit the same and starting to look like Hallmark movies.

    Why, that's the best news I've heard in a dog's age.

    Terrible analogy. All Tony had was his balls and his word, and he didn't break them for nobody. trump has neither.

    Yes

    My mom posted that fake photo of trump helping people in the flood during the North Carolina hurricane with the caption, "I've never seen a president do this!" I said, "Mom, you still haven't. You posted a fake photo and are perpetuating the lie onto other people." She said, "oh well. I still think it's a great photo." i mean, I just fucking can't anymore. It's just being willfully stupid and I can't support it anymore. It gives me a rotten feeling in my stomach because I don't want to visit her anymore. I do it out of duty as a son, but it makes me fucking miserable.

    17 years? Seems a little ridiculous. Guardian Article

    I used to work in the Wells Fargo building downtown and had a good view of the Galleria. We had some visitors from Ohio or some shithole and one of them asked me while looking out the window, "that's downtown Austin, right?"
  21. Jograves
    That's not from downtown. That's from the Williams Tower, no?

    I wrestled AAU when I was in 4th grade at 75 pounds. Took 2nd in districts and 5th in divisionals in Montana. Got my ass whipped by a kid from Sidney, MT every time we wrestled. He pinned me in less than 30 seconds one match. That wasn't fun.

    LFC turned around and lost to that Milan team in the 07 final 2-1. Kaka had 10 goals in the CL that season. Pretty amazing.

    The American Performer tele I just bought was $1099. I'm very happy with it. Kind of a mash-up of old and new features. It doesn't come in butterscotch though. No sales tax and free shipping with Sweetwater.

    Most bikers I know are lawyers and accountants. Not sure how tough they are when they get leathered out on the weekends, but they ride bikes.
