I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who feels the same way about the site.

I'm a huge soccer fan in all its incarnations and have played since I was 5 (still play twice a week). I love watching the game live and on TV. Its kind of an obsession for me, but in a good way smile . I got to go to all the games from the '94 World Cup that were played in Detroit. Quite an experience. I'm actually thinking about getting tix for the next one in Germany next year and making a vacation out of it.

I really like hockey, too, but only really watch it on TV when the Red Wings are on or during the playoffs. Live is much better of course.

BTW, I'll be moving out your way this summer. I'm taking a position at BU for a couple of years. I can't wait to check out some Revs games.

Hey, I liked your ska post over on that skinhead thread. Man, I don't know why I ever bothered reading it. I knew exactly what was going to happen. What a trainwreck. Such a bunch of ignorant asses. That thread summed up most of what I don't like about this site.

I just noticed your profile says that smiley faces make you sad ... so, sorry about the one in the above comment.

You know what else I'd outlaw? Sweatpants. You can't wear sweatpants in public fella. You have some kind of fancy NASCAR leather jacket and you have a T-shirt tucked into your
sweatpants. What made you think that was alright?

I used to think it'd be OK if you were jogging, or on the way to the gym or something, but with the advent of...

I have to agree with you on the sweatpants front. biggrin

I think that Hepcat show was in '97. Mustard Plug was also on the bill if memory serves. Great show!

The Ska Flames, huh? My best friend's sister's husband (got all that smile ) was/is majorly into ska and had been around the scene for years and years (this is in Detroit). He had tons and tons of vinyl and one day he decided he was going clear out some room (he was really starting to get into dub) by selling some of his old ska LPs. I jumped at the chance and nabbed some really good stuff. The best of the bunch was a copy of Roland Alphonso's "Strictly for Lovers" signed by Roland himself! I also got an impossible to find copy of Gangster Fun's first LP! Anyway, when I was looking through his stuff he pointed out the Ska Flames LP and told me I'd love it ... he was right. Killer stuff. Definitely check them out if you have the chance.

The old lady on TV tells me that life isn't like a parking meter. She says I can't add quarters to stay around longer. That's pretty macabre.

I should have gone into advertising.

Squirrel Avalanche!!! Wooo!

I'm so jazzed by this that I don't even know where to begin describing it!

The house next door to mine is a three story building with a 45 degree incline. The side facing me has a big gable that forms a valley pointing down into the space between the two houses.

Every time we get snow it builds up on the...

Yes and no, this is what it looked like today when it didn't start an avalanche:

I'm done with snow. I'm sick of plowing and shoveling and snowblowing and salting and sanding. It's not that I don't enjoy having four seasons, but having to get up before dawn and plow is no fun.

You know what really gets me about snow? My girlfriend's Mom calls us from south of the Mason/Dixon line every time it snows to tell us that it...

That M. fellow doesn't do anything new. He's stuck in his own, boring, letdown of a formula. His movies don't follow their own inner logic. He just keeps getting more and more full of himself and his movies just keep getting more and more ridiculous. But, luckily for him, the majority of the American population isn't very bright, and now he's rich.

This is a recreation of a conversation my friend Mark and I heard on the Green Line in Boston some years ago:

Construction Guy 1: I was watching M*A*S*H the other day...
Construction Guy 2: That show sucks.
Construction Guy 1: You suck.
Construction Guy 2: What're you? A sheetrocka?

Thank you

Criminy, chew with your damn mouth closed! You're an adult for Pete's sake. If I were emperor of the world, chewing with your mouth open after the age of 6 would be punishable by jail time.

Thank you

A couple weeks ago I was at Target and as I came around a corner there was a 5 or 6 year old kid in a carriage who loudly offered the following when he saw me:

"OH CRAP! LOOKIT THAT GUY MA!"

Ma was mortified, my girlfriend thought it was Hi-larious and I thought "I should write about this online some day".

Thank you

Sauce for dogs? According to a commercial I just witnessed, you can buy sauce for your dog's food now. As bizarre as I think that is, I know there are people who will buy it.

It reminds me of the news about pet cloning and the guy who paid $50K to resurrect his cat. On one hand I think it's pretty ridiculous that someone would...
