I was just about to post exactly the same question- I have never heard of it. Then again, I have never been accused of being the hippest cat in the world, or anything...as I'm sure you can imagine. :P http://www.houzz.com/ Houzz is for people who like home improvement. Basically, here in North America it's taking off like crazy in the designer market. People that are building or remodeling to get ideas. It's incredible. you want small kitchen ideas - BOOM, pictures of small kitchens. Business pros can "tag" the items they sell in the photos to show you how to buy it, how much approx, and other details. Like looking at a magazine, but with more information and you can choose what you want to see. Closet ideas? Kitchen It will blow your mind, at least it did mine. 2 years ago a customer mentioned it to me. I've since created a houzz page for the Lighting Showroom that I manage. We upload pictures of our lighting in the customer's home - with their permission of course. We send in a photographer to shoot their home, at a time convenient for them and we add them to our page. I then link the pictures to our Pinterest page, creating "Pins" ~ we are trying to capture people in their favourite social media, and not miss them. My company's Houzz page: http://www.houzz.com/pro/primelightingdesign/prime-lighting-design-inc Our Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/primeld/ Our Website is really kind of boring comparatively - we do the fun stuff on our social media. http://primelightingdesign.com/ I learn something new every day. :) -
Battle of the Bisection...Hemispheres vs Half the World
Blue J replied to laughedatbytime's topic in Feedback
...he said, with the straightest of faces... I'll take "blinded Hemispheres" over the other "half the world", any day of the week. -
You fun-nee, baby! :P

I make a motion to include Zumbi in the 90%! second. Wonderful! Then, without further ado.................................................. Zumbi, you are a jerk! After all I have done for you, and you call me a jerk...? Thanks.... Then I know that... Zumbi, do you know what a joke is? You have thinner skin than an onion. While she poked at that thread you made all those months ago that was an honest attempt of friendship from Lorraine. Uh, Zumbi's retort sounded like he was joking right back at the person who called him a jerk to me. Gotta love loss of vocal tonage :P Uh, no. Some of us know him a lot better than you do. He was not joking. Honestly, why is this an issue? Why do you really care? Because I'm a jerk? I think it's because no one likes to be misconstrued as being unkind when being unkind was not the intention at all.

High Water But not because I dislike Tai Shan; I love it. But as a musician, I am a drummer first and foremost- and High Water has more interesting things going on rhythmically, to my mind.

Happy birthday! Hope you have a great day today.

Happy birthday to a guy who doesn't post a lot, but who i know is always all about the music! I hope you have a great day.

Hey, now...I've given you absolutely no grief over being so enamored with Bon Jovi (which is more than I can say for the rest of this lot)...and you do this to me? Et tu, Segue...'tis the unkindest cut of all. :( ;)
-
This has become the Steely Jovi thread, apparently...or...the Bon Dan thread? Well, to bring the discussion back to THE DAN...Countdown to Ecstasy is the only one of their classic '70s output that I do not own in some way, shape or form. So tonight, I am going to fix that! My Old School, here I come... :7up:

I'm on LinkedIn, but I don't really use it at all. I joined it when I was job-searching several years ago. And that's it, really. I don't think of TRF as a social network, per se. It's a different kind of online community, as are all other similarly-organized fan forums, to my mind. I like it here. And that's enough for me. :) -
One... :codger: Two! :haz:

I was just coming to comment on the bass in this song. It's one of my favourite bass parts of Geddy's, and a lot of fun to play. :ebert: It's also a fun song to sing. :) I'll be cranking up Moving Pictures in the car on the way home today...

Sounds excellent! So many people I know (and work with) are taking time off to watch the tournament. What I'm wondering is, can I trade jobs with them, so I can get away with that?? I had no idea there was going to be that much snow, so (relatively) close to where I am. Crazy. We're getting some rain overnight. But then sunny again by about noon tomorrow.
-
It's a thing that happens here, and on all the other internets I've ever seen... No harm no foul, as far as I can tell. Everyone will be okay.

Great, great song. The harmonics that Alex plays to open and close the song are masterful. And those same passages feature some classic 'lead bass', from Geddy. I can attest personally that it's a very fun song to play on the drums, too. My favorite lyric from it: "Suddenly, ahead of me, Across the mountain side A gleaming alloy air-car shoots towards me Two lanes wide I spin around with shrieking tyres To run the deadly race Go screaming through the valley As another joins the chase..." Ahhhh... :)

You need to dine on some honey dew. He needs to stop smoking that stuff he smokes and clear his head is what he needs. Would it have helped if I had put a winky smiley face at the end? I was trying to channel the people who love to hate on the pre-PeW era Rush. Winkies always help. How well I know how easily mistaken a post can be if one does not include an appropriate emoticon! :) ;) I thought my views on epic-era Rush were well known enough that no one could possibly take my post seriously. I mean, The Necromancer is my favorite song and CoS my favorite album, after all. See, there we go. I knew it!

Oooohh! I've never been a trademark before! :D

Right. So the thread was your idea. But was it a bright idea . . . ? Another poll idea, right there! Great! Meta-polls! I don't think we're too far away from a poll that asks, "Is it a good idea to have polls on The Rush Forum?" Eagle's head may explode... :laughing guy:
