  • Awwww. The rapp vocals sound pretty good (kid at the beginning of the song). And as for good/bad art, I'm not much of an artist, but the art I do make is pretty decent, and it wouldn't be so if I hadn't gotten the chance to make sloppy art as a kid.
  • Exercise helps. Going for a run until you're sweaty and breathless, or just exerting yourself with weight training can be a great release. I used to get a sore upper back from too many hours studying in front of the computer, and working out def all…

  • Unimaginable. Death toll now at 300, hope it doesn't get much higher.

  • Talented kid. And I love that headboard.

  • Obama supporters can at least find solace in the fact that the GOP party has damaged its own image to a point from which it cannot be repaired fully by 2012. I'm ready for a GOP candidate I can take seriously, as the emergence of one might signal at…
  • It's ridiculous that the long-form certificate was even released. Next will come calls for his SAT scores and transcripts. The far-right will be grappling at these straws forever, unable to accept that a qualified Black man is legitimately qualified…
  • Reynaldo said:How much of that is natural aging, though? Seven years is a long time; some chicks fall off fast after their early 20's. If she had a non-meth-using twin to use as a control then we'd know. And she's wearing makeup in both pics so she …
  • tabira said: Looks like Lindsay Lohan. Unsettling indeed.
  • Can't find any songs with my given name, but there are plenty of songs about almond eyes.
  • "It's the End of the World as We Know It" by R.E.M. Should be its own thread.
  • I see it now. Ethereal and romantic, especially in that window.
  • I can't see it, Elise!
  • Cardio. But weight training and building muscle are another story.
  • Don't forget to take your malaria tablets. Bon voyage!
  • Here are some recent coppings. My mediocre camera does not do my finds justice. A couple of shifts: pinstriped slate gray and matte green satin. The green one has some inconspicuous pockets which blend in neatly with the pleating. I told myself that…
  • djdaze said:anyone else here going the "non traditional student" route? decided last week I'm going back to school because my current degree is a really expensive paperweight and I need to make my value more betterer. So it looks like i …
  • I said I'd get back to this thread. I completed the book last month, after giving reading it a long break about two-thirds of the way in. I was fascinated by the stories in the first half of book, and the portrait Charnas painted of the late 80s ear…
  • When I first skimmed this thread, I saw djsheep's username and thought it said djshadow. Wishful thinking. I'll be one of the many who chooses Endtroducing. It's the most played CD in my car of all time (not that I own many CDs), and that's p…
  • My friend Sara was named after this song. I've never thought Jane was a plain name. Great thread idea, Bassie!
  • Def one of the more interesting govt websites I've checked. "PI is extended ... to determine whether the extortionate activities if subject are in furtherance of the social and/or political goals of the Jewish Defense League." I've nev…

  • Salt n Pepa I wish it was Salt and Pepper. Red Hot Chili Peppers I think it's a "cool" name, but it's so long and there doesn't seem to be an agreed upon nickname. If I said "The Peppers" I don't think it would be obvious what I was re…
  • It seems as though the authorities were left with little choice (pepper spray vs tackling him physically). But doesn't this reinforce that using a debilitating product is the ultimate means to getting someone to comply? I mean, the kid is already ri…
  • Until I opened this thread, I really had no idea that it's been nearly 2 decades. Nirvana was still getting heavy, heavy airplay on the rock station I used to listen to in junior high and high school, although I graduated over a decade after Cobain'…
  • Hendrix was first and foremost an electric guitarist, and any other instrument alongside him was always dominated by his strings. In a sense, it's fitting that he didn't have more of a sing-song voice as his guitar would have overwhelmed it anyway. …
  • Another vote for HUMBOLDT FOG. I remember where I was and exactly who I was with when I fell in love with that cheese. I enjoyed the mini lesson, Frank. That Peulh woman is indeed stunning.
  • Appears to be one of those sobadit'sgood type flicks. Read the NYT review this morning. Apparently Sucker Punch lives up to its name.
  • Misfits and Ramones: most popular shirts worn by "non-conformist" kids who think they're the only ones who have it. Need to get myself into a Dark Side of the Moon shirt stat. I will look so cool.
