I can't really figure out why anyone would care who or what songwriters might be thinking about when they write songs, though I can understand dissecting the stories for meaning. It seems to me that the whole point is to transcend the specific and come up with something that is general enough that ...

I JUST SCORED A TICKET!!!!!!!!! Hell yeah! Best score since Levon's. Damn, in one year I caught Variety Playhouse in Atlanta, Levon's, Halloween in Richmond and now this if the eggnog doesn't kill me. "But I don't know Brooklyn." "Only the dead know brooklyn." (thomas wolfe)

I like the relay idea. I'll do the first or last 10 yards.

I'm here! I'm here! <jumping up and down, waving arms>

But it does seem awfully lonely. I assume, tho, that we won't be the only ones there that nite

Lots of bad things happen to people all the time. People do bad things all the time. This is far from the worst. But it is particularly despicable and disheartening. I mean, who the fuck would steal toys from a toys for tots collection site???!!! That's gotta rank seriously high on the asshole scal...

Better than coal in everyone's stockings. Maybe.

Bears, win, Hester sets record, Bears win division and Brett Favre might be done once and for all?? Hester is incredible, espy when u consider that he's not exactly surprising anyone at this point, yet he still gets it done, time and again. Some people are a lot more impressed w/ the bears coaching...

The Mekons - Fear and Whiskey 4.5* Really good mix of pop, punk, and country. Full of anti conservative themes and drinking anthems. Similar to DBT, not really in musical style but in what they write about. Was browsing articles about it and several called it the seed that sprouted alt-country. Tha...

TC and I now have a steak riding on the outcome of tonights MNF game... Sounds like a job for bovine knievel (riding the steak...oh, never mind, it made sense in my head). so many possibilities.......................... moving on............................... Very wise.

I think we need a pool: Which ESPN "personality" has slept w/ brett favre the most? I think i'm gonna puke if they mention his name again.

Yup. Blizzard has more to do with the wind, and the visibility. You don't need a ton of snow to create white out conditions when you live on a flat, treeless plain. The farm I grew up on had absolutely no wind block from the west. It was flat and open, and the nearest cluster of trees was a small g...

Do you want me to regale you with stories about "bedding" the hogs during blizzards? BTW, "bedding" has nothing to do w/beastiality. It's the act of delivering straw from a hay loft to individual hog pens, and then spreading the straw around in order to provide the hogs with a w...

Apparently, letting in the 2d guy from Iowa was the tipping point.

I've always had a lot of respect for Coughlin, but his comment yesterday was, to give him the dangerous benefit of the doubt, laughable (paraphrased): I take full responsibility for that punt. I told that rookie punter to kick the ball out of bounds and he didn't." Coach C is now officially off...

Mekons - Journey to the End of the Night First listen, thanks to the very quick turnaround of the amazon vendor i ordered it from. So far so good. Not "classic" but some good stuff, espy "City of London" and only 1 clunker, "Out in the Night." Thanks to dee dee for the ...

Hey Cotter. Was thinking of u earlier when i was reading about what the FBI's been up to lately. I hope you're keeping that spare bedroom ready for me!

I have no idea what dancing ricky's about either, but i thought this was funny: The merch table suggestion came out of left field for me, not because it's a bad suggestion, just that i hadn't thought of it that way at all. As soon as i heard the word "merchandise" i immediately thought of ...

Phew! Hey they're all frozen ropes in the box score, right?

Hope you didn't give those 14 points, but yeah, that runback (!!) and TD b4 the end of the half made all the difference, i think. At least i hope.

I guess i missed that line about Bob being celibate. I don't hear that at all, Rev; i think the man from arkansaw has it right.

I'm not sure if anyone has noticed but Detroit is getting better every week. They will be a legitimate contender next year. True story, espy if Stafford can play, oh, 10 straight games. But to me Buffalo's at least as interesting a story 'cause of the QB from Harvard And let's not forget that Matt ...
