Staple Family boxset that goes around the 40 Pounds on Amazon.UK sold on Amazon.ca for 25 Loonies, http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B015FWTAOO?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_1&smid=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB

On a lighter note gotta love the way Belgians handled the situation sunday night. If you haven't done it yet check out the hashtag, Brusselslockdown.

Even in the VCR era, I rarely watched anything live, except maybe events that you need to know at the same time than everybody else like elections, some sports events, tv series that you knew everybody would talk about it in the office the next day . The digitalisation of broadcasts just made it easier.With cable networks à la HBO offering drama without commercial interruption you get less patient with network tv and their inane ads and promos throughout a show. Why a normal human being wants to be subjected to this crap. Already tv is not always the best medium to enlighten ourselves, no need to push over the edge So if there is a way to spare us , you'll bet many people will. American sports are among the worst culprits of them all. UFC fights that take about a half hour for 3x5 minutes event that sometimes won't last that long Ice Hockey is another example of wasted time , same game that gets to be played just over two hours in the Olympics suddenly takes almost 3 hours in the pro ranks. But the most extreme case of wasting everybody's time is NFL and College Football, who offers you a gargantuan broadcast of more than 3 hours to show something along the lines of about 15 minutes of actual action. On a tape delay basis and with the control of the remote the freakin game lasts at around 75 to 90 minutes.and you won't miss much insights from the "brilliant " crew. I can understand the feeling of watching it live with the boys but truth is , it is just not an efficient way of following a game.

Good point, but it feels akin of those who use Bruce Springsteen's Born in the USA as a patriot hymn , at least in the Marseillaise case if you don't pay attention to the lyrics it has an uplifting feeling but when you do Metallica sounds like a band of p....ies compared to them

Considering the lyrics of the song, always feel weird at using it in a pro-peace or anti violence demonstration. Here's a decent translation of them Arise children of the fatherland The day of glory has arrived Against us tyranny's Bloody standard is raised Listen to the sound in the fields The howling of these fearsome soldiers They are coming into our midst To cut the throats of your sons and consorts To arms citizens Form your battalions March, march Let impure blood Water our furrows

Yep it looks like more a Twitter account

Thought i was going crazy, it is the main feature I use to stay current on the board, love to see it back

Show got cancelled health reasons , hope she gets well soon.

Patty Griffin tonight

Anybody's got a cigarette

I send my wishes also was not aware of his health problems , from my interactions with on this board he is to me the epitome of a decent person.

Didier Drogba is amazing to watch live, he's killing defenses by himself

Nobody goes to Heaven anymore, it's too crowded.

The fifth goal was an absolute cracker !

Terrific game in a "volatle" atmosphere in Marseilles with the return of Valbuena in an enemy uniform

RIP

Don't know if the album sold well but for sure the musician is not selling

Last name is rather easy Pann-ass-yeah First name not so much as both syllables do not have the same equivalency in english , The hu is pronounced the Hu of huge but with more accent on the u like they say it spanish as in the cu of cuando , the ghes is similmar to the gh is pronounced the same like ghetto but the e sounds like the way they pronounce it in German

It is offered on a very cheap price on most Amazons , in the US 45 $, in Maple syrup country 57 $ and something along those lines in Euro versions of the site. B y the way the search function is useless since we switched boards, it is a pain in the butt tracking down info , anybody has a trick tried to go the Google route but it is not that much efficient.

Drogba finally made his first start with the team, he played as a sub two weeks ago and missed the two next games because of a toe injure, he did come back with a vengeance as a scored three straight goals one with the left, the right and the head in a wild win for the locals over the Chicago Fire. Needless to say that the crowd went bunkers !!!

I do not experiment threads crashing but the reply box is for lack of a better word funky .

Not for 1955, apparently. It seems to start in 1959, bit of a shame.

Found a site that delivers it for UK and French charts http://www.kakophone.com/kakoParade/FR/ Mine would be "In The Summertime" Mungo Jerry and in France it be "L'Amérique" i Joe DASSIN Bilboard delivers the whole chart for the day http://www.billboard.com/charts/hot-100

By the way we can do the same with films, am not faring that better Two Mules for Sister Sara (Hope I wasn't one of the mules !)
