[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

I can send the uncut version by E-mail. I'd have to seriously edit it down for CS!

I want to read it in it's full glory on FDF. But, if I start to have trouble waiting, you might want to be lookin for a PM from me. ;)

[The Moose]

*enters*

hello there

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Hi Moose, how ya doin?

[eclipsedman]

*walks in, grabs an ale, and lights a large pipe of Old Tobey*

How's everyone doping tonight?

[The Moose]

[eclipsedman]

what about you?

Doing good Moose, and yeah I mean't doing not doping. Check my new thread for that issue :D

[The Moose]

good to hear eclipse.

anything happening in your neck of the woods jedi?

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

*walks in, grabs an ale, and lights a large pipe of Old Tobey*

How's everyone doping tonight?

Hi Eclipse. Doin ok, but a little disapointed with myself right now and have been most of the day.

*sips tea*

Catch the lakers?

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

good to hear eclipse.

anything happening in your neck of the woods jedi?

Got in some surfing, we had a storm over here which made for some nice waves, although the forecast says we are warming up again and the storm is clearing out. So waves will go back to normal.

[The Moose]

hmmm, cool to hear. still nothing much happenign over here, other than i've got a long weekend, due to a public holiday on monday. hehe. yay.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Cool, day off for ya. :) *sips tea*

[eclipsedman]

Hi Eclipse. Doin ok, but a little disapointed with myself right now and have been most of the day.

*sips tea*

Catch the lakers?

What are you dissapointed about Jedi? Ohh by the way Phil Jackson is going to be on The best damn sports show at 11pm tonight on fox sports net, it should be interesting to hear what he says about the Lakers and the end of their era.

[The Moose]

yeah, 'twill be pretty cool

i'm outta here now. got other places to be, things to do

don't know if i'll be back in a while. i've got lots of things on this weekend.

[eclipsedman]

See ya Moose.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

What are you dissapointed about Jedi? Ohh by the way Phil Jackson is going to be on The best damn sports show at 11pm tonight on fox sports net, it should be interesting to hear what he says about the Lakers and the end of their era.

Yeah, I have the channel turned to FOX SPORTS right now.

I am disappointed because, in the review for the extended version of ROTK, i gave some of the dialouge that happens in the film and one of the most anticipated was a line from the witchking, as I did the review I wrote the line down as "Old fool, do you not know death when you see it? This is my hour!"

Today a special preview was released and I got the line wrong, he says Old man rather than old fool. I screwed up two darn words. I had everyone excited because they were going to hear a famous line from the book, well almost the line from the book has THIS IS MY HOUR as the first part of the line, not last as it is in the movie. I can't believe I couldn't remember correctly two darn words. I just feel bad because I know there is alot of disappointed people out there. It's ridiculous. I can remember dialogue from entire scenes, but I screw up on two words. How can I get "old man and old fool mixed up? THEY DON'T EVEN SOUND LIKE EACH OTHER! I just can't believe it. Then just two days ago, someone asked if the line was in and quoted the line fromt the book, I said yes except that the line goes as follows, I gave the line I had written down and full confidence that I was right and then those two darn words came into play.

[eclipsedman]

Yeah I just saw that trailer tonight, I am definately looking forward to it. You know the sad thing is some dumb asses will come in and say you never actually have seen the EE because of it.

[eclipsedman]

I am going to go buy Phil's book!

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Phils book might be a darn interesting read.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Yeah I just saw that trailer tonight, I am definately looking forward to it. You know the sad thing is some dumb asses will come in and say you never actually have seen the EE because of it.

Everyone has been really great, they say I shoudn't worry about it, it's only two words and that I got the rest correct. I do worry about it, even though they say no big deal, I know they are dissapointed, it's alot of fun hearing lines that are from the book, even if they are altered in a way. Now I screwed up because of those two darn words.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

*sips last of tea*

Catch everyone later. :)

[anduril55]

(opens door)
What is this place?? Can I buy a drink?

[eclipsedman]

*passes Anduril an Export Gold, and grabs 2 for myself*

Welcome to the Green Dragon, Anduril!

Catch you later Jedi

[anduril55]

Thanks!! What's an Export Gold?? I'll try it, but I'll also have a pint of Guiness please! Popular pub, is it??

[eclipsedman]

Export Gold is from NZ. Guiness and New Castle make a fine Black and Tan I might add.

[anduril55]

Aha thanks eclipsedman!
(sits down and drinks, satisfaction on face)
Ahhh, that's GOOOOOOOOOD ale.

[anduril55]

Anybody else here?
(looks around to dark, empty pub)
Typical. First time I come here, and nobody's here to talk to. Oh well, guess I'll pour myself some more beer.
(pours two pints of Guiness and Export Gold and sits down in the corner a la Strider, all alone in the dark, drinking silently whilst pretending to smoke some Longbottom leaf, coughing quietly whilst trying to look cool)

[anduril55]

I'm lonely. Somebody talk to me!!
(gets another pint, now slightly drunk, sits back in corner and waits for the next person to walk through the door)

[flukeman]

Hi anduril - nice to meet you. Fancy a pint?

[anduril55]

Yes please, was beginning to think nobody EVER came here!! I'll have an Export Gold please.

[flukeman]

Well, it all depends on the time of day. People pop in and out. A pretty popular time though is around midnight and later Eastern Standard time in the US.

*passes an Export to anduril*

[anduril55]

Ah, another Export gold, nice!!

[The Moose]

*plods in*

hello there

is there anyone still here?

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

*walks in* Hello. :) *pours some tea*

[Kerry from Cali]

hi! i've been trying to sign on for a long time now. my posts wont go through... :angry:

[Kerry from Cali]

my computer had a bad problem yesterday, so we went ahead and bought a new one. it's taken me forever getting the stuff off the old one, and setting the new one up. hopefully, everything will work right.


i finally remembered i had done a short cut to comingsoon on the kids computer, so here i am.

for some reason, on my computer, this screen shows up with the tan background, but not the white window, and there's no 'submit" button.

don't know why....

[Kerry from Cali]

*leaves a special bottle of champagne for fluke and FB behind the bar*

i wish i could have been around when the red sox got into the world series. i had my in-laws over, so i had to sneak in the back room to watch a few minutes, here and there.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Hi Kerry. :) How's your son doing?

[Kerry from Cali]

hi jedi~

david is doing really well. thanks for asking! :)

he can't wait to get this cast off, but then he has to wear the air cast for another 2=3 weeks, at least.

how are you doing/?

[Kerry from Cali]

i may end up getting booted out of here quick. my system is still acting weird.. just so you know in case i just disappear. ;)

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

hi jedi~

david is doing really well. thanks for asking! :)

he can't wait to get this cast off, but then he has to wear the air cast for another 2=3 weeks, at least.

how are you doing/?

Glad he's doing well. :)

I'm doing fine. My nephew's birthday is tomorrow. He will be turning 7. :)

[Kerry from Cali]

Yeah, I know what you are saying. It doesn't really bother me too much. I wouldn't let something like that ruin the friendship.

Although, I am not sure if you saw last nights episode, but it seem liked when Dom was camera they purposely shot angles that avoided the tattoo area and when there was a shot that would most likely show it, it seemed another actor was carefully placed to block the view. :D

It was also funny to see Dom almost fight someone.


*grin* i know you'd never let something like this get in the way of friendship. ;)

yes, I got to watch the episode tonight, Mark's step mom and dad were in town, and she loves the show, wont miss an episode. :) :) :)

it was a great one! i was very freaked out about Jack's dad though. wth?? casket empty? eep. gives me the willys.

and do i sense a budding sense of something between charlie and the preggers girl?? "you don't scare me"... that was very sweet. maybe theyr'e just going to try them all against each other, and see where the best chemistry is.

as for him almost getting into a fight... it's the ones you'd never suspect that you have to watch out for... they can be amazing.

:)

[Kerry from Cali]

Glad he's doing well. :)

I'm doing fine. My nephew's birthday is tomorrow. He will be turning 7. :)


aw... 7 is a fun age for boys. they still like trucks that dump a lot of dirt and G.I. Joes... anything special planned or just the family gathering?

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

aw... 7 is a fun age for boys. they still like trucks that dump a lot of dirt and G.I. Joes... anything special planned or just the family gathering?


Little party tomorrow, some of his friends from school will be there, I'll be there as well as my sister and our mom and dad (the grandparents :D ). All fun stuff. Hopefully the weather will stay on the decent side.

[Kerry from Cali]

well, i still can't get my other computer to work right just now...

i'm gonna call it a night. i hope your nephew has a great b-day!!! lots of cake and ice cream!

take care,

:)

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Bye Kerry. :) I am going to retire as well. *sips last of tea*

[Brock Landers]

Aha, I got a phone number today. And I found my copies of The Joshua Tree(yeah, my name!) and Queen: Greatest Hits.

[Darth Barth]

*walks in*

Hey all! Sorry I havent been around, I was having the same problems Kerry (well not the same, I am sure) was having, but enough to warrent a new computer (finally)!

Just got it delivered this morning, and am updating and transferring things right now :)

New computers are so much fun, huh Kerry :P (insert sarcastic vulgar comment here)

Hi Darth!!

what kind of computer did you end up getting? this has been a whole lot of suck, getting it all hooked up, and stuff redownloaded, but i'm almost through.

[Darth Barth]

Hi Darth!!

what kind of computer did you end up getting? this has been a whole lot of suck, getting it all hooked up, and stuff redownloaded, but i'm almost through.

Just your basic HP Pavilion...

Problem is I am coming from a windows 98 to this, its very frustrating trying to find things at first (like how to get online lol)

And yes, the updating and downloading of things holds a major "suck" factor.

My next headache will be to try to network the two, to get all my old files on to this one. It will be nice though, this has a 120g harddrive and coming from a 4g it feels like living in a mansion after living in a 1 room shack...no more floppy disks yay!

And of course I already had LOTR in the dvd player, had to check it out!

*gets good shivers down spine*

[fineus fog]

Thanks for the champagne Kerry! You missed 4 great games - hopefully you got to see the good parts :)

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Hi Kerry and Hi Moose. :) *sips tea*

[The Moose]

hello there kerry

how's it going?

[Kerry from Cali]

Hi Kerry and Hi Moose. :) *sips tea*


hey jedi,

i just rewatched the last Lost episodes, and i remembered something that i caught the first time around. in the episode where we learn a little more about Mr. Locke, when he's sitting in the travel guide office, he mentioned something about getting used to something for four years. (i can't quite remember the phrasing) then this last episode, with Jack and his dad, when Kate tackles that jerk (can't think of his character name, i dislike him so much) he flips her over, and said something like "i made this birthday wish four years ago"...

someone thought there would be a conection to all the characters, that there was something binding them together. now i bet it will turn out that what ever it is, happened 4 yrs. ago. any bets on whether Jack's dad operarted on Mr. Locke, but was drunck and screwed it up? Or maybe hit him with his car, (while being drunk) but being a big shot doctor, nothing was done to him?

i love the possibilites!

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Kerry, did you hear that Dom's show has been picked up for a FULL SEASON? :applaud:

[Kerry from Cali]

hello there kerry

how's it going?


hey Moose! :)

busy, but good. can't get my new printer hooked up right, and that pisses me off a little, but i'll figure it out tomorrow.

how about you, things ok?

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

The possibilites and the questions are endless. :)

What's in the forest?
How is Locke walking?
Why is Jack the only one flipping out?
What's "Charlie" going to do when he runs out of his "stash?" :D

[Kerry from Cali]

Kerry, did you hear that Dom's show has been picked up for a FULL SEASON? :applaud:


no, i didn't hear that, but i'm not surprised. I did hear that Hawaii was already canceled. (not surprised there either)

:) :applaud: :applaud: :applaud:

i just thought of something else that was interesting...

when mr. locke was talking to jack, when jack said he thought he was loosing his mind, locke told him something like, "well what if who you think was here, really was here, even if that's not possible"... locke knows more then he's saying. do you think there was more to him being in the wheel chair? was he an amputee? it almost looked like that, when they did his flash back, and he was talking on the phone to "helen". (plus he mention the other amputee that climbed that mountain) did he grow his legs back, or just have a spinal injury repaired? either would be impossible, so maybe seeing jack's dead dad isn't so far off the loop.

[Kerry from Cali]

is charlie's stash the real drug, or what they give to patients trying to kick the habit?

*** i don't mean would they give the actor drugs, but is his character already in drug rehab? i'm not sure of the name, is it something like mescalane?***

and yes, it's so new, it's very addicting itself!

:)

[The Moose]

going pretty well down here thanks kerry

can ya also check ya PM, if ya haven't done so in the last few mins?

[Kerry from Cali]

going pretty well down here thanks kerry

can ya also check ya PM, if ya haven't done so in the last few mins?


*grin*

check your own. ;)

[Kerry from Cali]

he jedi, how did your nephew's birthday go? was the weather down there good? it was pretty nice here, but breezy, for most of the day.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

That's what I want to know. :)

I think the line that got me thinking was when Locke said "What if we are on this island for a reason?" WOW, what can that mean?

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

:)

That's the big question. So far we haven't got into Dom's character yet with the exception of that flashback of him on the plane. So hopefully within the next episodes, we will find out what his deal is.

well, it looked like he was taking yellow caps of something...

does heroin come like that?

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

he jedi, how did your nephew's birthday go? was the weather down there good? it was pretty nice here, but breezy, for most of the day.

It went great. :) Weather was nice, a little cool. Nice none the less. Everyone had fun. I bought my nephew this minatures game. It is kind of like the game RISK, you have little game pieces called minatures. I got him the ROTK pelennor fields set. It's really fun and you can add on and add more characters, either from the movie or EVEN THE BOOK. Yup, the store sells minatures of the characters from the book.

[Kerry from Cali]

where did you hear the show got picked up full season? from dom?


** i just have to say that i love typing with my new keyboard... the thing practically types itself** ;)

that sounds totally cool. i bet he loved it. did you guys do the outdoor bbq? we had another football game. it was great. we won. 26-8. :)

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

well, it looked like he was taking yellow caps of something...

does heroin come like that?

It does, but I seem to think is on something like not as strong. Maybe some type of pain killer or something.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

** i just have to say that i love typing with my new keyboard... the thing practically types itself** ;)

Yeah, from Dom first Wednesday night. Then it was officially annouced on TV Thursday. 13 more episodes to follow the amount they have "in the can" right now.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

that sounds totally cool. i bet he loved it. did you guys do the outdoor bbq? we had another football game. it was great. we won. 26-8. :)

We didn't BBQ, my sister in law bought one of those "PARTY SUBS." The three meat deal. There was homemade garden salad, homemade macaroni and potato salad. My sister made the macaroni salad. Sodas and chips. Of course cake. GERMAN CHOCLATE! :)

[Kerry from Cali]

Yeah, from Dom first Wednesday night. Then it was officially annouced on TV Thursday. 13 more episodes to follow the amount they have "in the can" right now.


that is *so* cool. will they stay on location? you'd think they'd have to. it's not like "Las Vegas" where they recreate the sound stage to look like a casino. it's not like you can dupe the ocean that way.

13 more weeks in hawaii... must be rough. ;)

Defintiely they will stay on-location, unless they need a studio for sets for flashback scenes, in which case they would find a place in Hawaii or out here in LA.


Yeah must be rough. :D It's easier for because now that I know they will be filming for a longer period of time down there, I don't have to rush for a visit, I now have time to plan.

[Kerry from Cali]

so, jedi, have you any other plans (travel or otherwise) at the moment?

[Kerry from Cali]

has anybody here seen "Team America" yet? Mark wants to see it really badly, but I just can't get any enthusiasm for it. he wanted to take david, but i heard there were some strong scenes, (that's not the kind of wood i want him watching, if you get my drift)

any thoughts?

[Brock Landers]

oh momamia momamia, ;)

I have to admit, Kerry, in this last episode it was funny to see Dom gets physical with that one dude who is the brother of the blond haired girl.

Dom called him a wanka!

:lol:

Oh, you can search -- up and down

:lol:

i kind of liked it when he called him a pretty boy. i bet dom could scrape it up, if he wanted to. there were some pics out of him, from some movie he did (can't think of the name just now) he looked pretty scary. he was a druggie or something, and he had his hands up, and he was getting ready to kick some guys ass.

i felt so bad for dom in the episode where the blond girl got him to fish for her. what a *itch. (and yes, i know she's supposed to be that way, but god, i *know* girls like her, and i hate what they can do to a guy)

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

so, jedi, have you any other plans (travel or otherwise) at the moment?

Not really. I do have tix two a couple premieres next month. That's about it.

[Brock Landers]

Now in rotation in Brock's sound system:

[Kerry from Cali]

i just wonder how long it's going to be, before someone tries something physical against someone else. they've been there 6 days now? how long do you think jerk face boy can hold out?

[Kerry from Cali]

Not really. I do have tix two a couple premieres next month. That's about it.


that should be fun! i'm just trying to get to december 1st. ;) by then, all the class parties, school carnival, and football season will be done.

hey, i was just reading on HP forum, that john williams wont be doing the music for gof. that's a bummer. i love what he's done so far. hope who ever they get next, doesn't screw it up.

Yeah. That was messed up. Especially the part where she said: Can I ask you something? and "Charlie" was thinking he found another fan of his band, he began to say "Yes I am the bass guitarist... She then cut him off and said "CAN YOU FISH?" Poor Charlie. :D

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Nice disc change there, Brock. Although I am also a STROKES fan, but LED ZEP takes the cake.

[Kerry from Cali]

Yeah. That was messed up. Especially the part where she said: Can I ask you something? and "Charlie" was thinking he found another fan of his band, he began to say "Yes I am the bass guitarist... She then cut him off and said "CAN YOU FISH?" Poor Charlie. :D


yeah, i caught that part about, "i wondered when you were going to ask..." poor baby. i think it's sort of like a joke, too, considering they said he can't go anywhere without being mobbed. :)

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

that should be fun! i'm just trying to get to december 1st. ;) by then, all the class parties, school carnival, and football season will be done.

November 4th: @ 6:30pm, Beyond the Sea. I am going to support Kate Bosworth.

November 16th (tenative date) @ 6pm: ALEXANDER. I begged for these tickets. :D I am anxious to see this film.


R U serious? JW is not coming back for GoF? Who could take his place?

[Brock Landers]

Who could take his place?

Danny Elfman.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Danny Elfman.

That is a brilliant choice, Brock. You know what score comes to mind when I read that name? EDWARD SCISSORHANDS.

Whoever it is, I hope they keep the HP theme JW wrote. It would feel wierd hearing an all different theme when the movie opens.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

*sips last of tea*

I shall retire now. Catch later Kerry and Brock. :)

[Kerry from Cali]

Yeah.

Ananova:
Jarvis to write Harry Potter soundtrack

Jarvis Cocker has been signed to write the soundtrack for the fourth Harry Potter film.

As well as composing the music for Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire, the former Pulp frontman will make a cameo appearance reports The Sun.

Movie bosses were determined to bring in a trendy British musician after the previous Potter films were scored by prolific American composer John Williams - most famous for Star Wars, Indiana Jones, ET and the chilling theme from Jaws.

But new Potter director Mike Newell wanted to make sure his movie appealed more to a generation of music-mad teens.

He asked Daniel Radcliffe and the other young stars to draw up a shortlist of candidates.

Jarvis may even write the score under the name of his alter ego Darren Spooner - a goth-rocking punk image he invented for himself last year fronting a band called Relaxed Muscle.

Jarvis will be responsible for picking additional music for the film and has already chosen Franz Ferdinand to appear and write a track.

A source said: "Everyone here is really excited about Jarvis being involved in Goblet Of Fire.

"He is a very talented musician who is a big fan of movies and knows exactly how they work. You may just think Jarvis is the bloke in specs who fronted Pulp but he is a man with many hidden depths."

That sounds freaking horrible.

[twaas1]

Stonefaced 1 ,

You don't know drunk until you have seen my uncle Frank!!! I didn't know that it was physically possible to get that drunk...well I am gonna try and beat his record....pass me another one!!!!!

[The Moose]

hmmm. is anyone still here?

[The Moose]

well, i'm outta here

*takes out a key, and locks the dragon*

[Darth Barth]

That sounds freaking horrible.

Im afraid I have to agree with you there...almost sounds like the visual destruction of batman, but in a musical sense..

we will have to wait and see

[Phaedra]

pulling an all-nighter in oz. must engage in conversation to stay awake. pls help my brain. anybody?!

[twaas1]

Well if you want to have fun and talk and drink...you came to the right place, for the only brew for the brave and true.....comes from the green dragon!

Sit down, pull up a stool, and have a drink!!!

[Phaedra]

a drink eh? at this point i'm considering mainlining cocaine. notwithstanding my hatred of needles and mind-altering substances and my poverty and my not knowing any actual drug-dealers and the fact that it's 3am and i'm chained to my desk and laptop, that is.

can i just mention i how damn relieved i am that ch 7 in oz has picked up the rights to Lost as it has done with many and sundry other ABC america shows. sadly must wait til next to see strung out monaghan-flesh (monagh-flesh????? a new catch phrase perchance!!???). oh well. anybody know anything about australian contract law? li'l help????

[Phaedra]

next YEAR that is. with Lost. in australia. i think i'm about to have an aneurism.

[Darth Barth]

Sorry, dont know anything about contract law. You have to wait until next year to see lost? that stinks, but hang around in here and you will know all about it :P

[Darth Barth]

a drink eh? at this point i'm considering mainlining cocaine. notwithstanding my hatred of needles and mind-altering substances and my poverty and my not knowing any actual drug-dealers and the fact that it's 3am and i'm chained to my desk and laptop, that is.

Just say no :nono: ;)

[Phaedra]

"just say no" ???!!!! to what? impending unconsciousness!!!!??????? have no fear, phaedra is well aware that drugs are bad, mmmkay, but is also aware that they could might prove HIGHLY USEFUL in such circumstances as these. ;-)

as for Lost, oh yes, i've well and truly spoiled myself so far, have been all over the TWoP forums like a locust. a locust i say! what a brilliant site that is, i must add! i could waste countless more nights when i should be finishing overdue essays trawling through the recaps......

....oh, wait

[Darth Barth]

LOL, it was the first thing that popped into my head, after seeing it for years and years. That phrase, even on bumber stickers.

There are a couple of really good "lost" forums out there, if you want I could point you in the right direction, or if you want to stay kinda spoiler free, thats ok too.

[Brock Landers]

Im afraid I have to agree with you there...almost sounds like the visual destruction of batman, but in a musical sense..

we will have to wait and see

It seems almost that WB are pulling to "pull in the teenage crowd" - after POA failed to surpass the usual extremely high money standard of the last two films, it looks like WB are getting nervous and wanting to bring in the "cool kids". Maybe that's just me.

Its not just you. The majority of people going to the movies these days are teens, but in the wrong age bracket of HP. I hope they are not going in the wrong direction.

me??? spoiler-free?????? NOT GONNA HAPPEN. heh, by the time the show gets on screens down here, i'll probably know the mystery-stomper/cruncher's starsign. have been scoping the lost forums like mad since the second-half of the pilot ep. but for some reason i keep coming back to TWoP. must be the krazy sense o' humour those kids have that really clicks with me.

have to consider, at what point does the all-night become (yet another) lost cause...is it when you are literally propping your head up on the stacks of textbooks and case summaries just to keep one's eyes in line with the screen; is it when your attempts to stay awake (like posting in forums then constantly updating for replies) becomes the sole task you are able to complete with any regularity. unlike, say, blinking. or breathing, for instance. or is it when you start spamming friends with vaguely obscene emails, just so they gain some insight into the mental torture-regime you are currently operating under. all these questions and soooo many more..........

[Brock Landers]

Its not just you. The majority of people going to the movies these days are teens, but in the wrong age bracket of HP. I hope they are not going in the wrong direction.

I don't think WB has realized yet that the "cool kids" are actually "completely retarded". They're the kids who bring their cell phones to the movie theatre.

[Darth Barth]

True, and unfortunate. But still, these are the ones visiting the theaters most often. Opening night is a horrible night in my area for that reason.

We need a mall around *sigh*

[twaas1]

You actually need a mall ? ? ? Geez! I have like *exxagerates* thirty four on my street! I think that my whole county is devoted to shopping!

*Takes giant gulp in disbelief that you don't have a mall*

[Darth Barth]

The closest mall is literally 2 hours away, and it is a tiny one at that!

I dont live in the sticks, there are a lot of places to shop, just no malls. (the indoor type, not the sidewalk strip malls)

[flukeman]

fluke, your team nearly gave me heart failure!!!!!

that was exciting. (but i could do with a little less stress) ;)

To be a Red Sox fans is to have stress - you can't have one without the other :)

They did great tonight too - Boston takes a 2-0 lead!

[Brock Landers]

I hate the Boston Red Sox.

[flukeman]

That sounds freaking horrible.

Yeah, it really does. Some punk rocker dude who is a "big fan of movies" is going to be in charge of Harry Potter's music? Is he a film composer? I'm a big fan of movies too but it doesn't mean I can compose a soundtrack...

I'll miss John Williams :( He is the man.

[flukeman]

I hate the Boston Red Sox.

:nono:

Here, have a pint, that'll cheer you up.

*passes Brock a pint of ale*

[Brock Landers]

:nono:

*passes Brock a pint of ale*

Maybe it's because I'm a die hard Yankees fan ;)

[flukeman]

That could possibly be it I guess.... ;)

*walks in* *lays on the couch*

Phew... I am beat. :)

[eclipsedman]

*walks in, grabs an ale*

*sees Jedi laying on the couch, hands him a Red Bull and Vodka*

how is everyone tonight?

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Hey Eclipse. :)

Thanks for the drink.

Doin pretty well. The LAKERS played tonight.

[eclipsedman]

Yeah I actually was able to see it. I am looking forward to when Vlade is able to play, I wan't to see how the whole team plays together.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

*sips red bull*

Still no word on Karl Malone yet, I guess.

[eclipsedman]

Yeah I don't think he will be back. Jedi have you been able to check out Team America yet?

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Yeah I don't think he will be back. Jedi have you been able to check out Team America yet?

I'm going on Tuesday to see it with some friends. I bet I will be ROTFL. :D

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

*sips last of red bull*

Well, I have to retire now, Eclipse. :) Thanks for the drink. Catch ya later.

[eclipsedman]

I'm going on Tuesday to see it with some friends. I bet I will be ROTFL. :D

yeah you will. When I hear lines from the review thread I still crack up hearing them.

Anyway I am off to watch Ed Wood on dvd, I will talk to you later.

[The Moose]

*plods in*

*sits down, and opens an ale*

[The Moose]

*finishes ale*

well, i'm outta here

night all

*locks the dragon, and departs*

[Spy-Of-Saruman]

I'm going on Tuesday to see it with some friends. I bet I will be ROTFL. :D

Oh you will Jedi, it is truly hilarous - Trey and Matt still on top form :cool:

[twaas1]

Anyway I am off to watch Ed Wood on dvd, I will talk to you later.

Ed Wood is a good movie. But the best movie with the word Ed in it...Edward Scissorhands !!!!!!!! That is awesome

A toast.....to Eddy Scissorhands!!! *Takes gulp*

[Darth Barth]

*crawls in through window seeing as the door is locked*

Hi all!

[twaas1]

Well hello Darth...sit down and have a drink in honor of Eddy S.!!!

[Crow T. Robot]

*walks in Dragon*

Well, its computer class monday!!

[flukeman]

Woohoo, computer class! :)

*pours a pint for herself and Crow*

Here you go, just in case you need some refreshment.

[Crow T. Robot]

I do. Thank you Flukey

How are you doing?

[flukeman]

I'm pretty good - a little stressed at work, but that's normal :) I've been cheering for the Red Sox (I was actually up at Fenway yesterday).

Hpw about you?

[Crow T. Robot]

About the same, just got through midterms. Also caught a bit of a cold. But im ok. You see the game yesterday? how exciting.

*sips ale*

[flukeman]

I walked around Fenway before the game - I wasn't fortunate enough to have tickets (too bad I didn't have $1000 in my pocket for that scalper...) :) The game was good though. Looking forward to tomorrow night.

How were midterms?

[Crow T. Robot]

mostly A's. got a 77 on an accounting exam which disappointed me but it should be curved upwards to a B.

You didnt have 1000 dollars in your pocket?!? Whats the matter with you!! ;)

[Crow T. Robot]

well im gonna go home and see how the lakers are doing. See ya later, fluke. Thanks for the company

[flukeman]

My pleasure :) Talk to you later.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

*walks in*

Hey. :)

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Oh you will Jedi, it is truly hilarous - Trey and Matt still on top form :cool:


SoS, I think I will be laughing the hardest when that Korean dictator guy in on the screen. Just seeing him in the commercials is freakin hilarious.

[The Moose]

*enters*

hello there

[Crow T. Robot]

Hey everybody

*pours ale*

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Hey Moose and Crow. :)

Hey Crow! GO LAKERS!!

[The Moose]

hey jedi

can i ask what happened relating to the lakers? did they win something?

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

It's just PRE-SEASON games right now, Moose. But they won their game today and each win is big step in the right direction. :)

[The Moose]

aha, good to hear. anything interesting happening over there? what's happening with the surf?

[Crow T. Robot]

the best part is they won with their two stars, Kobe Bryant and Lamar Odom, only playing about 9 minutes a piece. Unfortunately, the other team's star, Ray Allen, didnt play at all(injury). Too bad, I wanted to see him get the crap played out of him after what he said about the Lakers a couple weeks ago. Oh well, they will play again. The Lakers need to play some tougher teams though. Its barely a challenge anymore

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

aha, good to hear. anything interesting happening over there? what's happening with the surf?


Didn't surf today, I may try early tomorrow. Surf reports are calling for an average of 2 to 3 foot waves. Not huge as I would like, but it will be a nice relaxing surf. On a more positive surfing note, A STORM IS COMING. :D

[The Moose]

hehehe, cool to hear.

and is there any (in)advertant reference to the first track on the ROTK soundtrack there?

hehe. i gotta scoot. cya

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Yeah, I would of liked to see Allen play also. Don't worry, Crow, he'll get what's coming to him in the regular season. I to want to see them against a tough team.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

hehehe, cool to hear.

and is there any (in)advertant reference to the first track on the ROTK soundtrack there?

I guess there is. :D

I put it in caps because, you know how I love surfing during a rainstorm.

[Crow T. Robot]

Later Moose,

Jedi, they play The Nuggets next Tuesday i think and The Spurs next Friday. any predictions?

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

I say they will defeat the NUGGETS. And I give the other game a vote of "Too close to call."

[Crow T. Robot]

Yeah, The Nuggets should be a good game and I think the Lakers can beat them. THe Spurs...well, come on, they are expected to win the Western Conference and THe Lakers wont have Vlade or Deavan. Im going with The Spurs on that one but I will be rooting for The Lakers. It should be interesting to see how they react to a tough team, everyone can play a good game against an easy team like the Sonics (Caron Butler) but how about San Antonio?

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

With the spurs I think we need to have a solid performance out of Chris Mihm and Lamar Odom. They should be the ones to defend against Tim Duncan. Obvioulsy Duncan will get his points no matter what, but if Odom and Mihm can contain Duncan, the lakers have a shot.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

*sips last of tea*

I have to retire now, Crow. :)

Catch ya later.

[Crow T. Robot]

See ya, Jedi

[The Moose]

sorry about that. i hate leaving without telling people

[The Moose]

well, i'm outta here

cy'all tomorrow. probably.

"wanders in between innings"

Evening, all :) And special congrats, Fluke...just remember a few days ago before we invoked the Red Sox mojo :omg: My daughter thinks you and I should chose lottery numbers together ;)

One thing we know for sure...the Cards are NOT Pedro's daddy :D

Holy crap, I hate that new U2 song. :(

I'm liking your boys more and more...don't forget that hustling Brian Grant you have added to the mix...he is another quick big body you can put on Duncan...it is gonna be rough on Lamar being the 4th option (the first three being Kobe, Kobe, and...you guessed it...KOBE! :D

[fattybolger]

Holy crap, I hate that new U2 song. :(

Evening, Brock...how is the honors HS student? And in this old rocker's opinion U2 have always been a bit over-rated :D

"ducks the possible hail of tomatoes"

[Brock Landers]

Evening, Brock...how is the honors HS student?

Just fine. I still hate the Red Sox, go curse of the Bambino.

Listening to Abbey Road.

No homework tonight, which is odd.

An old guy anecdote:

When Abbey Road was first released, we had it copied on 8-track and took my VW into the park and played it over and over :D it seemed like the most amazing album we had ever heard :)

[fattybolger]

Sox did it again, Mr. Landers...the curse may be lifted :omg:

Do you ever get to concerts, Brock? Who do you like best live?

[Brock Landers]

Sox did it again, Mr. Landers...the curse may be lifted :omg:

Do you ever get to concerts, Brock? Who do you like best live?

I try to get to as many concerts I can. Next month I'm driving 2 hours up to Portland to see Green Day. Next week I could be going to see Les Claypool(arguably the greatest bassist of all time...band: PRIMUS) at a local theatre. Not many bands come to Eugene, so travelling to Portland is the more likely.

[fattybolger]

I saw Green Day several years ago when the played open air on Telegraph Ave in Berkeley...they were good, but I had no inkling they would become superstars...not that familiar with Primus...do you like gig music better than CD music?

[Brock Landers]

It really all depends for me. There are certain little things on the mixing/production of an album that I really like(like the adding in of say, a xylophone during a really silent part) that a band doesn't do on stage. But a CD will never match the energy of a well done live performance.

Agreed...what made the Beatle albums so revolutionary were the layers of sound...Phil Spector had his "wall" of sound, but the Beatles (really George Martin) introduced little "snippets" that turned their music into a mind-blowing collage...

Still, one Hendrix or Cream concert outdid all the Beatles albums...but that's just me :D

[Brock Landers]

Exactly, there's some things you can do on the mixing of an album that you can't do during a live show.

[fattybolger]

I havent been around much lately...did you review Brian Wilson's Smile? What did you think?

[Brock Landers]

I havent been around much lately...did you review Brian Wilson's Smile? What did you think?

I haven't acquired "SMILE 2004" yet, but I want to. I've only heard good things so far, except for that Wilson's voice has gone down over the years. Understandable, it'd be pretty hard to sing in falsetto for 40 years. ;)

[Brock Landers]

Best song from Abbey Road: "Maxwell's Silver Hammer"


I love this song.

have you read his biography? His is one of the strangest stories in rock'n'roll history...he turned down a spot at Monterey and a meeting with Paul McCartney because he felt so inferior...yet everyone loved his music...when "Pet sounds" first came out ...WOW!

[fattybolger]

Wilson truly is a strange guy. I own the Pet Sounds remastered CD and in the "story of Pet Sounds" he and McCartney are born 2 days and one ocean apart. Both play bass. Both are extremely influencial to music as we see it today(though a lot has been lost in the translation ;)). And yet Wilson literally went insane from his art form.

Best part:

"Maxwell Edison, majoring in medicine"



The Beatles' lyrics are what makes them legendary. The melodies can get so complex while the lyrics can get very simple.

[fattybolger]

He seemed super-conflicted with his father, who reportedly ripped him consistently, wanting to take credit for Brian's accomplishments...he flipped out behind much drug abuse and ended up being controlled by some wierd guru whom he credits with saving his life...one of the greatest talents of our time...he died a different death than Janis, Hendrix or Morrison...

...calls her on the phone, can I take you out to the picture show uh oh oh"

Yeah, they shared their fun and humor with us and it was simple...When I'm 64...Lovely Rita...Rocky Racoon...McCartney was more lyrical I think...Lennon became more serious when Yoko came along...wow, that was a LOOOOONG tune ago...

I was never a fan of post-Beatles Lennon. After awhile he became one of those guys you wanted to tell to basically "shut the hell up." The term 'blow-hard' comes to mind, like he loved the sound of his own voice. I actually liked some of the post-Beatles stuff McCartney did, such as WINGS("Baby I'm amazed", "Band on the run").

Yoko helped John become an egomaniac...self-important to the max...the National Lampoon did a musical parody that angered him, but they were right on target...in the song he declared himself a misunderstood genius...funny stuff...he did his best work in years right before he was shot...

Paul just showed up down here in Santa Cruz to do a set for Neil Young's Bridges concert...he did a few numbers with Tony Bennet!!!TRUE! They brought down the house!!!Paul played several Beatles standards and it was the best show in years!

I'm still sticking by Lennon being has best when he was with The Beatles. He and McCartney basically had contests to see who could write the best songs, and it all went to the Beatles(this can be attributed to why the Beatles were a non-stop songmaking machine). I read a Rolling Stone interview he did shortly after the Beatles broke up, and he basically came off as a primadonna.

[fattybolger]

Agreed...he was a better rocker than a revolutionary...gotta run for the night...good talking with you...have you checked out "Yesterday and Today"? Great Stuff!

Night, Brock!

fatty (and everyone else) - I have another dvd I think you would like, Eric Clapton Live in Hyde Park from 1997. It's a completely different feeling from the Concert for George (understandably), and most of the players are the same. It's an outstanding concert.

Brock do you have the Beastie Boys Video Anthology dvd, i been wanting to pick it up, but i wasn't sure if it was worth the price.

[eclipsedman]

Hi eclipse. I'm doing just dandy :) How are you?

Hey Brock and Jedi.

Doing good Fluke, it looks like yuor Red Sox have broken the curse. But it would be really crazy if Keysers idea about the Cardinals coming back to win it happened. Especially with the Lunar Eclipse tom.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Hey Eclipse. :) *sips tea*

[Brock Landers]

Brock do you have the Beastie Boys Video Anthology dvd, i been wanting to pick it up, but i wasn't sure if it was worth the price.

I'm still a little pissed at the Beastie Boys.

I spent 20 bucks on their last album, and it sucked ass.

[Crow T. Robot]

Yeah, me and fatty got geeky. Haha.


So then, what do you think about Paul McCartney rereleasing classic Beatles albums with his 'alterations'?

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Like I said, you'll have to wait until Monday at the EARLIEST. ;)

I can do that. :)

[eclipsedman]

Hey Jedi, has it started raining where you are at?

[flukeman]

Let's not get too hasty about breaking anything yet - being a Sox fan, you have to realize that anything is possible and we're very used to heartbreak :) I'm hoping the lunar eclipse will have a good effect on Boston though. And these guys just want to win so badly, and they have a great attitude about it, just taking one game at a time.

So then, what do you think about Paul McCartney rereleasing classic Beatles albums with his 'alterations'?

What? When was this announced?

And I thought he sold the catalogue of Beatles songs to Michael Jackson, did he not?

[flukeman]

I thought the Beatles original American version albums were being released.

[eclipsedman]

Yeah from watching how they have been playing I think they will take it tom.

[KeyserLime]

I'm still a little pissed at the Beastie Boys.

I haven't bought it, but i did like Check it out. I need to buy license to ill, i've had a burned copy far too long.

And for classic music's sake, that last two CD's i bought were The Doors, and Strange Days. It was pretty cool actually, at virgin records, the Doors (self titled) cost 19.99, but buying a double pack cost only 14.99. What a deal

The last album I bought was Jimmy Eat World's "Futures" - and it's OK.

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Hey Jedi, has it started raining where you are at?

*sips tea* Yeah, it's starting to come down.

Hey, I saw TEAM AMERICA today!! FREAKIN HILARIOUS!!!!! I ALMOST SPIT MY SODA OUT!

:lol:

[flukeman]

I have to plug it again - you must get the "Concert for George" dvd (tribute concert for George Harrison). It's amazing. It's also on CD, but the dvd is a must-see.

[Brock Landers]

*sips tea* Yeah, it's starting to come down.

Hey, I saw TEAM AMERICA today!! FREAKIN HILARIOUS!!!!! I ALMOST SPIT MY SODA OUT!

:lol:

I've heard some things about it.

"America.....**** YEAH!"

[eclipsedman]

*sips tea* Yeah, it's starting to come down.

Hey, I saw TEAM AMERICA today!! FREAKIN HILARIOUS!!!!! I ALMOST SPIT MY SODA OUT!

:lol:

I am not surprised. Two of my favorite scenes were the puppet sex scene and the vomit scene.

[Crow T. Robot]

I believe MJ had to sell them back due to his recent financial difficulties. Anyways Im not sure about the legal ins and outs but I do know that he has already released Let It Be in a new version without producer Phil Spector's orchestral and choral arrangements. You see, Paul never like what Spector did with it but John and George did. Now that Paul is the only surviving important Beatle, he can do as he likes. For example trying to change some of the songwriting credits from Lennon/McCartney to McCartney/Lennon. Coming soon is a new version of Sgt. Pepper complete with a new cover with the walrus and rocky racoon added to that famous audience picture and improved barnyard animal sounds in "Good Morning, Good Morning" and apparently a whole new song too.

L comes before M in the alphabet, Mr. McCartney :D

[KeyserLime]

i still need to see team america, i was unfortunately busy the weekend it came out and busy last weekend, so at this point i'm the only one of my friends who hasn't seen it and i hate going to movies alone. I also kinda get the feeling this isn't one to take the parents to otherwise i'd have already seen it, eh maybe this weekend.

Goodnight everyone

"WE WILL NOT LET YOU GO!"
"LET HIM GO!"

[Crow T. Robot]

as if anyone cares whose name comes first!! We all know who wrote what. John wrote the introspective, soulful, rebellious crap and Paul wrote the 'Silly Love Songs'. oh and George wrote some stuff too....I think...

In my opinion, George wrote their best song:


"While My Guitar Gently Weeps"

[flukeman]

George wrote wonderful songs.

I'm going to call it a night too - it's pretty late (or early) here.

*exits*

[KeyserLime]

No love for Octopus's Garden? ;)

[Brock Landers]

No love for Octopus's Garden? ;)

"While my Guitar Gently Weeps" owns everything else in their catalogue. "Hey Jude" comes close, though. ;)

[flukeman]

"Something" is up there too.

*exits for real this time*

[Crow T. Robot]

While my Guitar Gently Weeps is a catchy rock song but what the hell does it mean? Some eastern philosophy I guess. Actually that song was one of my favorites on the White album the first time I heard it but after a lot of listens is one of my least favorite. Something is a great ballad. Other than that....yeah he didnt contribute much else unless your a fan of Sitar music. I really cant choose a favorite song and narrow the beatles down to one track. Instead I choose albums. Sgt. Pepper is my fav and George contributed little.

[Crow T. Robot]

Gee, the rain is really coming down hard now.

*sips ale*

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

FREAKIN HILARIOUS!! That vomit scene was priceless, he kept going and going.

:lol:

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Hey Brock, I picked up the PAGE AND PLANT UNLEDDED DVD. Awesome stuff. I remember when that aired I scheduled my whole day around it. :D
