Ungrateful? Ungrateful to whom? The Hall invited them because they were in Bull Durham. Their political views have nothing to do with their movie roles (or at the very least, the one they are being honored for). If I invited you to the Yankees game because I want to honor your ratty sweater and weeks before the game you speak out against juggling and I disinvite you, how does that make you an ungrateful guest, maroon?

"Clearly within its rights" -- So fucking what? I still think it's disgusting. I'd be within my rights to call you a brain-washed follower who is pissed off with anyone who exercises their right to speak their mind just like the President of the Hall of Fame, but my right to do so has nothing to do with what's going on here.

Sarandon and Robbins are against the war. What the hell does that have to do with baseball? They are for free speech and the many liberties we enjoy in this country. The President of the Hall said they were endangering the lives of the troops by voicing their opinion. What? He's more narrow minded than you: "Must agree with war. Support Bush no matter what. Punish all who disagree."

The whole thing is even dumber than the Clear Channel/Dixie Chicks incident.

Does anyone else have that friend (and good friend at that) who thinks he/she is the hippest person in the world, but all other friends think is a complete dork? You know the guy: big-time tool in college (but good guy) who never scored with the ladies, but now he gets an attractive (albeit annoying) girlfriend and he thinks he's the shit. Let me give an example: he's the type of person who goes to Widespread Panic/Phish/Stringe Cheese shows and spends more time thinking about what he's going to wear than how good the music will be. Moreover, he thinks he's "hip" b/c he's going to said show. It drives me nuts b/c I know most people are there for the music and not to look good/cool and now I sound like fucking Lester Bangs...am I a music snob?
I think I love you. Although I am now too old to have such annoying friends. These people all get married the minute they meet someone half way decent who tolerates the bs. That said, I sense SD might be like that.

No dear, could have been one of the many other voices in your head. They're not funny, either.

Many of them should have, but . . .
Especially given how much time they must have left to think after they finish thinking about how "good" the music will be.

It is clear to me that you have never been to a Phish concert, for had you been to a Phish concert, you would know the indescribable excitement of being surrounded by hundreds of young, wide-eyed, long-haired, nubile, spinning hippy chicks, with their mischievous smiles and voracious hallucinogen appetites.

Serious Godfather II question:

Why does the presence of Frankie Plantaglea's brother at the Senate hearing make him (Frankie) decide not to testify?

Michael's explanation of "It was between the brothers, Kate" doesn't quite clear it up for me.

Is there some parallel between Michael/Fredo and Frankie/his brother that we're supposed to draw?
If Frankie testifies, his brother gets it. Sort of like the old machiavellian trick of leaving a child or sibling as a hostage at the court of a noble with whom you have entered into a truce.

You're assuming that most people who go to Phish concerts can think. Having been to a Phish concert (very reluctantly) I saw very little evidence of 'thinking'.

A-hem, I have theory about Phish-heads and this is my theory, that they keep going back to Phish concerts because they can't remember the last one they went to.

The whole hippie-freedom vibe is indeed appealing, but interest ends where the need for basic hygiene begins.

I have actually heard the reasoning, "but this is my odor. It's natural." Congratulations champ. So is any amount of filth, degredation and pestilence. Get the hell away from me, freak.

Doesn't really matter. We are creating a store, which means the item would be for sale publicly on a Web site.

I have no time for romance. Haven't you heard? I'm old, fat, balding, and may die any day now. Especially if my wife finds me romancing someone else.

I won't steal any more penii. I promise. Frankly though I am sure your penis is lovely, I don't really want it.

And thank you for not being part of that particular crowd ;)

A Phish concert is merely this age's reincarnation of a 70's Dead concert. Nubility is a wonderful virtue, especially when rendered trusting and open through the use of our friends the chemicals. However, it should not be considered a mode of dress. A blessing, perhaps, . . .

Anne, I am glad you are here. Are you spookyfish, or are you Thurgreed? The reason I ask is that I am very observant (really) and I noticed that spooky's first response to TM's "you're not funny" snipe said "originally posted by Anne Elk" in the places where he was quoting Thurgreed. That's gone now because spooky deleted it.

Now I might be trying to bust a sock, or I might simply be wondering about weird code glitches. The other day I started up my home PC and when I went to the lawtalkers site (it was raining out, I swear it, and my SO was out of town, too) I found that I was logged in as somebody other than myself. Other than RobustOfficePuppy, I have no socks on this Board, so it was pretty weird. And I'm pretty sure my SO is not leading a secret life on Lawtalkers.

It seems like the equivalent of a crossed telephone wire -- something in the cookie recipe perhaps?

Anyway, be forewarned, even if you're not a sock, for technical weirdness is out there.
