What did you folks think of the Layne/Pete fight?? I almost died laughing at Pete trying to be all manly and Layne just wiping the floor with him.

HELL YEAH!!! Yeah, it's a pretty fine time to be a Rush fan

Batten down the hatches folks, and stay safe!

I'm in Charleston, WV, and barely noticed anything. If I hadn't been looking right at my glass of iced tea and saw that it was moving very, very slightly, I'd never known we had an earthquake. None of my pets acted funny either--my cat was asleep on my lap and never woke up.

Has anyone seen the trailers for this yet? I kind of like the premise but we all know how the premieres are cut so they're the best of a bad bunch. Thoughts?

The day I met my husband and the day he proposed.

I've always been terrified of pool drains and those large industrial fans like you used to see in the ceilings of supermarkets. The back part of the fan would be hanging out of the ceiling and I'd about turn myself inside out so I wouldn't have to walk under them. Oh, and heights...flying, I'm okay with. Get me on a stepladder with more than 3 rungs and I'm sweating and nauseated. Don't know when that phobia showed up but damn, it's no fun.

Congratulations!!

He mentioned in one of his books that Carrie gave him an engagment ring but it had gotten lost...could that be it?

I've been on Ambien for about a year now due to horrible, horrible nightmares and insomnia. While it knocks me out cold, I HAVE to get at least 8 hrs sleep or I'm no good the next day. I've fallen asleep standing up on the days I got less than 8 which is NOT good.

HOLY SHIT I'M GOING TO HAVE NIGHTMARES FOR WEEKS. I've seen some bad mug shots and that's got to be the worst I've seen so far. Man, talk about going from the top of the pile to the bottom.

Congratulations, and here's to you having a most excellent future

Nice licence plates! I'm going to get vanity tags for my truck as soon as my income tax refund arrives.

I've got a 50 second section of YYZ on mine. It's currently my hubby's work number's ringtone.

Got these from a couple folks @ work who do whitewater: http://www.aceraft.com/west-virginia-white-water-rafting http://www.wvwhitewater.com/

What a handsome son you have!

Gas around here went up to $4.29-4.50/gal for regular and almost $5 for diesel. Makes me oh so glad that I didn't go with the diesel truck I was looking at. Yes, it's nice to have a second vehicle, esp. with us having the barn and all but anything off the farm, especially towing a loaded horse trailer, is going to have to be planned out and thought out big, big time.

At the gas station down from my place, regular was $4.05 and diesel $4.25, I think [just outside of Charleston, WV].

Yeah, the Pamplemousse chick makes me cringe. Plus she's got serial killer eyes

My older Quaker Parrot, Sami, said "I love you!" very clearly, then her neighbor [also a QP] said "I love you too!" I love my birdies!

I hope they don't tour. I've seen a couple of their shows on the 'Net and Paul's voice isn't that great for Queen songs. Bad Company, etc., yes. Queen, no.

I found out yesterday morning that a good friend of mine that I've worked with for years passed away on Christmas Day. She had announced that she was retiring at the beginning of the month and there were several of us that wanted to give her a kick-ass send off party. She was a sweetheart and I'll miss her like mad.

I'd like to see them do a Columbus gig myself. And if I could afford it, I'd gladly haul my butt [and my husband too] to see them in Ottawa.

Thank you folks for this thread---a LOVELY Xmas present
