  2. As I saw the pic I was wondering who swivels all the bottles from time to time. Greyfriar, I was going to edit my post to add that very same thing, but now there is no need. Yes, Geddy, who rotates your bottles for you? "Hey baby, I'll rotate your bottles for you." :sundog:

  5. Don't buy into it at all, however... I did just find out recently that when you see a rainbow you are using the cones in your eye (as opposed to the rods) to see it. Some animals do not have these cones and therefore cannot see the rainbow. That led my line of thinking to this very topic thinking that, just because my eyes are not capable of seeing something does not mean it isn't there. Too deep? Welcome to my thought processes. That being said, the whole spirit, soul, whatever is not something I even want to believe in. I take more comfort in thinking when I die that it is just over. Eternity is a long time to be wandering around messing with people. JMO

  6. The first sentence is all you needed to type. If you've been married a while it's a given you can admit when you're wrong, that's why she lets you stay married to her. I just figure I am always wrong, saves a lot of headaches and arguments. I actually have an awesome wife, and she is my best friend. I do subscribe to this though: Happy Wife, Happy Life I keep telling my husband that as long as he realizes I'm right, everything is good But jokes aside, as a wife I have learned that us females also have to realize when we are wrong and apologize. It's not right for one person to dominate a relationship—marriage or otherwise. Unless both people are equals and treat each other with respect, which includes acknowledging when you are wrong and the other is right, it's not an ideal relationship.

  8. Resume: Experience dusting: A while now. Experience in wine: Um, I'll get you whatever wine you want, baby. Salary requirements: completely negotiable. I think that they refer to that arrangement as "quid pro quo." ;)

  9. I'd say you're wrong. In fact, some of the posts in this thread, and certainly in the referenced one, would likely earn someone a suspension. You might see people getting after it on a topic, but you seldom see someone say they flat out don't like someone.

  11. I know there are craploads of threads around here like this one but I really enjoy seeing what folks tastes are. You get 10 albums you can listen to for the rest of your days. Thats it. What and who will it be? The trick here is you can only pick one album from any band or artist. Here are my picks as difficult as it is. No. 1 is the only easy one for me.... :haz: 1. Rush All The Worlds A Stage 2. Yes Going For The One 3. UFO Strangers In The Night 4. Judas Priest Sad Wings Of Destiny 5. Scorpions In Trance 6. Led Zeppelin Physical Graffiti 7. Van Halen Van Halen 8. AC/DC Let There Be Rock 9. Styx The Grand Illusion 10. Journey Infinity There are so many recordings from these bands that I love but I could choose one. I think truthfully Yes is the hardest for me to choose from. Ask me tomorrow it it may be Tormato or Close To The Edge or a few others... :)

  14. Sounds similar to my evening. My good boyfriend took me out for Mexican food, got me drunk and swooned over how my ass looked all night. It was a good evening! :D Wow, same thing happened to me... last time I hang out with ILSnwdog on Cinco De Mayo Anyone who doesn't recognize the fact that you have one hell of a pooper is a palpable fool.

  25. Indeed. Everyone takes credit for all my hard work. Day in. Day out. I hate it when we have threads like this because there are several things I know I hate when it happens but can't think of one single one right now. I hate when that happens.

You might see people getting after it on a topic, but you seldom see someone say they flat out don't like someone. I don't find it to be any worse/better than outside of SOCN. Either that or you grow thick skin By the way, I just came here to admit that you're all wrong.

  29. Leave That Thing Alone is the better song but since they've played it on the time machine tour and Where's My Thing was played last tour, I don't see either one of them coming back to the set next time around.

  36. 05 May 2014 Monday The Axolotl The axolotl salamander has the rare trait of retaining its larval features throughout its adult life. This condition, called neoteny, means it keeps its tadpole-like dorsal fin, which runs almost the length of its body, and its feathery external gills, which protrude from the back of its head. Found exclusively in the lake complex of Xochimilco near Mexico City, axolotls differ from most other salamanders in that they live permanently in water. http://i.imgur.com/ULi3285.jpg http://i.imgur.com/s3wGuMd.jpg http://i.imgur.com/wkerVl3.jpg http://i.imgur.com/3GUE0PY.jpg http://i.imgur.com/mUNAh6u.jpg :|

  40. And the moment I find that man I am running the other direction. :outtahere: But what if you met Geddy and he was like, "hey, there's this thing I always wanted to try..."? After a thorough shower, I'd go for it... :P Hey, everyone's got a "price," so to speak. I mean you really never know what that man is going to be into, after reading the article about his wine cellars, Lord only knows what else he's got going on in that basement. Wouldn't you like to know ;) Why, yes...yes I would! :fury:

  47. Just wanted all to know I think I have come out the other end on this health thing. Almost 2 weeks out from the sinus/septum surgery it is almost healed and I am feeling better each day. I just wanted to thank one and all of you for your kind words and concern throughout all of this these past few months. I was going to name each one of you but I looked back and there were so many of you it would be a bit much. All tolled 49 of the TRF's finest wished me well and helped keep me laughing and smiling during my hospital stay and recoup at home. It's humbling to say the least and a beautiful thing to say the most. You guys are the best of the best and with that I think we can finally shut this thread down and make it a distant memory and let it fade into the woodwork like so many threads ultimately do. Thanks again and sincerely, peace and love to you all.... :sigh:

  48. "It's more spontaneous babbling! You get kinda goofy at the end of a show, especially near the end of a lengthy tour. That was just crazy rambling, verbal farting. It was Geddy's idea to put it on the video." - Alex Lifeson, Kerrang No. 388, April 18, 1992 "That's kind of a joke, but it doesn't seem like many people are getting that joke. Actually, Alex, at certain parts of that song, would just start rambling into the microphone - all kinds of various nonsense, and it actually never got recorded anywhere. So no one had any idea, including him, what he had actually said. But we loved the shot of him just ranting into this microphone, so we decided we would put up this bogus 'radioactive' warning about the fact that we had 'censored' what he had said, and we thought we did it in kind of an obvious way - it looked like it was phony, because we put the radioactivity symbols right on the screen, but nobody seems to be getting that." - Geddy Lee, Rockline, December 4, 1989
