Happy Birthday!

Man, I never get invites like that!!

You're repeating yourself now. And just because you consider it a "pretend sanctuary" (whatever that means), doesn't make it so for everyone else.

Happy Birthday!!

LOL again, Aggie! That's what everyone said four years ago. Yet I noticed this afternoon that it had 1,170 views when I resurrected it. I would be careful correlating page views with interest in these titles. The "Digression" thread gets far more views than this one. People like to look at threads they can have fun with, such as this one.

Why wouldn't you just play the albums that the tracks are originally from? I can't see this set appealing to most of the board members here...

Ball on the ground Ball on the ground Vikes lose cuz they put the ball on the ground.

...to a player on the other team.

If you're just getting started, alot of the artists you mentioned have a wealth of material that you can't possibly have completely listened to/digested. I'd take a few of the bigger names - Louis Armstrong, Duke, Miles Davis, and Coltrane, and explore their whole history. You could almost spend a a lifetime just exploring their works, and seeing how they evolved.

I remember my cars when I was a kid as well, Ed It was a blast, and I enjoyed working with my father. We had our race this morning, and my son's car came in 10th place, out of about 45 cars. He was a little disappointed, but still had fun. He got an award for best paint job - even though ours was a body sticker type thing, lol. I think our car was fine, weight wise and design wise, but we should have worked a little more on aligning the wheels and making sure they stayed aligned. I think that's what hurt us today. All in all a blast though.

You going?? I wish! I am going to go to the Houston show though.

Two fall dates for apparently special shows. These are "Evening With" shows with extended sets. Sep 24 - Radio City Music Hall, New York Oct 14 - Royal Albert Hall, London

Just as an FYI, Andy has been Conan's announcer/foil/right hand man for the past 7 months. I think he'll stick with Conan wherever O'Brien ends up, too.

"Young" is the demographic the advertisers want. Not "old". "Young" are the ones more influenced by the commercials than "old". Leno going back to do the Tonight Show isn't going to bring in the younger viewers - they'll watch Letterman and O'Brien, wherever he ends up.

I wouldn't expect so, nor most of the people I know. But stated another way, I think people younger than 50 don't care for Leno's humor for the most part. Heck, the funniest thing about his show IMO are the Jaywalking skits and the Headlines, both of which are funnier than any joke Leno attempts during the rest of the show.

A couple more dates have been added to this tour: 17th April - Coachella Festival, California (should be some great exposure for the band! ) 24th April – Miami, FL – The Fillmore 28th April – Charlotte, NC – Amos’s Southend

Old folks...? What...over age 25? I don't think most 25 year olds care for Leno's style of humor at all. In all honesty I think he appeals mostly to people 50+.

Where are you flying in to? Malaga probably is the closest decent sized airport. The drive up the coast from Malaga to Motril, then inland to Granada is a nice one. As mentioned, spend some time at the Alhambra, it's a beautiful mix of Islamic and Christian influences. And try some paella somewhere - it's wonderful!

I didn't have alot of options with that design. The only places available for drilling were around the front and rear axles, so there's weight around both of those. That still didn't get it up to 5 oz though, so I had to use some additional weights that are stuck to the underside of the car, pretty much running the length of the car. The weight is pretty well spread out on the car, so hopefully it will at least be competitive - we'll see!

It's derby time again - our race is this coming Saturday. My son and I finished our car today though, so we're ready! We came in 6th place last year, out of about 40-45 cars. The cars that all won last year's race weren't really "car" shaped, but more aerodynamic. My son decided he wanted this year's car to look like that, so he came up with the design in our picture. He also decided he didn't want to paint it this year, but use some full-body stickers he'd seen. Kind of like those tattoos you wet and stick on your arm as a kid, except you have to cut them to the car's shape, then wet and stick 'em on. The biggest problem we had this year was with so little wood left in the design, there wasn't much room for weight. I was able to drill holes in the front and rear areas, and put some 3/8" cylinder weights in, but still had to put additional flat weights on the bottom to get up to the 5 oz. limit. Looking forward to the race!

Happy Birthday!!

17-3 Vikings over the Cowboys at the half. Romo has had 3 fumbles already, which is uncharacteristic of him. The OL hasn't given him protection or time to get his passes off, so it's all on them. And Flozell Adams is out, so not looking good. Vikings are playing pretty well, too. Not taking anything away from them. The 1st TD seemed to have sparked them.

Happy Birthday, Mike!!

Happy Birthday!!!
