But our Seal would love nothing more than coming up under those pirates and giving them the surprise of their life.

But they have to disarm the pirates before they scoop them up or they'll shoot the hostage.

Not disarm. Terminate. With extreme prejudice.

Haven't seen a Bond film in a while, have you?

Prompted by the random feature on my iPod:

I don't remember the taste of #1, but I do remember the debacle that was #2, so I'm voting for that. I'm pretty sure that was all just a record label attempt to squeeze more money out of a band that was either already broken up or just about to.

There has to be something from Peter Gabriel or Michael Jackson that is worse, but I'm sure as hell not going to go looking for it.

"Big Time" by Gabriel is one of the most grating singles of all time.

I didn't say what was the worse original release. Because that's a lot larger list that Big Time is on, but surely not atop.

Good times

Coltrane thought he had the last laugh when leaving Wonk and Gatti passed out after their trip to Manny's.



But he too had a little too much to drink.

the worst remake of the mid-80s was Dragnet. There is no room for debate. Next question.
