  1. Yes! I just need to do more of it. Do you like camping?
  2. It was my suggestion for blueschica. All right. I'll bring something more creative then. ;) I think your suggestion got lost in the other stuff. She likes car racing, this would be a good Rush-racing name :)

    Question

    Why do you even ask these questions? If you know anything about Neil you know that he abhors people who stalk him like this.
  4. Did he really say all that in his book? Yup. If anyone thinks Neil isn't really retired then they should read this book and they will change their minds. So what happened with the Rolling Stone photographer? They simply rearranged the photo so that Neil would feel comfortable and the photo would still look good. (Which it did. The photo appears in the book at the intro to that section, and I didn't think twice about it.)
  5. No. He's simply saying that he is done, no question about it.
  6. Did he really say all that in his book? Yup. If anyone thinks Neil isn't really retired then they should read this book and they will change their minds.
  7. If she insists on writing it incorrectly then it should be her title as well!
  8. I took the scenic route home after my errands and drove through gorgeous redwood forests. One of the most beautiful things in the world is a redwood forest just after it rains, with moss and ferns growing in the understory. The smell is incredible as well. And to make it even better, redwood forests here exist alongside live oak forests, another fantastically beautiful landscape. I'm so lucky that all of this is literally a couple miles from my house. They look like this: http://previews.123rf.com/images/welcomia/welcomia1505/welcomia150500017/39558026-Giant-Redwoods-Forest-Northern-California-United-States-Forest-Scenery--Stock-Photo.jpg
  9. What aboot men without hats? They were a good band. :) One of my favorite songs/video growing up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nM4okRvCg2g They used to play that video all the time on Night Flight in the early 80s.
  10. It has been raining although isn't currently not. It is grey and overcast, about 70ºF outside and may rain again. Rain, glorious rain!, says the Californian :D
  11. Sitting at my desk, unable to move and typing with one hand because there is a cat asleep on my arm.
  12. Here's an interview with one of the RushCon organizers:
  13. I used to love Big Macs. The last time I had one (which was probably a dozen years ago, back when I still ate meat) it just tasted nasty. The only time I've been back to McDonald's since then was years ago to get fries and a Diet Coke.
  14. A friend pointed out that I am in this trailer! From :05 to :11, first row about third from the right. Whee! (Although I wish I had been a little more animated at that very moment :P ) Bottom right of the video, right? Yeah, bottom right. Now, where's my IMDB credit?! You look a little bored or maybe in shock? :) I'm not sure which show that was from, but I was having a great time at all the shows. The band is just leaving the stage so I have no idea why I'm not clapping (I always applaud them!), unless maybe I had already clapped a bunch and was just waiting for what was going to happen next.
  15. I never would have listened to Ghost if it wasn't for this forum. (I had heard the name, but wrote them off as Death Metal after seeing a photo.) Now I LOVE them!
  16. Holy f**k, mine is going up $200/month (that's over 30%)!! I do wish the Affordable Care Act was actually affordable. What it is is a way for insurance companies to make more money Thanks, Obama. Actually, it's only because of Obamacare that I have health insurance at all. Previously I couldn't even buy it. Thank goodness for Obamacare because without it I either would have been $120,000 in debt after last year's surgery, or I would be stuck walking in pain for the rest of my life. No thanks to profiteering insurance companies.

  18. I get the image - combination of what some see when they think of the Confederate flag and what would upset many who use the flag, It kind of works here but as part of your signature? Hmmm, you trying too hard to shock maybe? I wasn't trying to shock anyone. Simply making a statement about how easily some people get offended about a symbols or symbols. It's an equal opportunity that works for touchy Jews, touchy blacks, and touchy gays. Sort of a "catch-all", if you will. And it wasn't in my signature. Notice how it doesn't appear in this post? Sheesh. I'm curious how, if at all, does posting that symbol answer the question posed in the OP? Are you saying you find earrings in men offensive? Back when I got my ear pierced, it was commonly thought, at least where I lived, that a heterosexual male would only get his left ear pierced. If you were gay, you'd get both or just the right ear. I posted the picture to go along with the post as a joke to indicate that the Confederate flag wavers using swastikas were "X-ing out" the geighs. Kind of a ironic catch-all. I had my ear pierced (left) for a long time but got tired of messing with it and haven't worn one in ages. If you or any other male want to wear one or more, get with it. No problems with them at all. How about nipples. Does the left / right thing apply to those as well? The left/right thing ceased to have meaning 20 or 30 years ago.

Sheesh. Just because you aren't offended doesn't make it right to goad others. It's just a symbol. Why choose to get offended? Life's too short to worked up over trivial shit like that. :finbar: Everyone has gotten so freakin sensitive. There are great tragedies occurring all over the world...why get caught up in silly shit like that? There's sensitive, and then there's outright hated. The Nazi party is hatred, plain and simple, and any glorification or support of the Nazis is hatred as well. No reasonable person wants to see the Nazis (or the KKK, or other similar groups) receive any sort of positive recognition. (This is not to say FG was promoting the Nazi party, but he has a used Nazi leader as his avatar before, so it can be assumed that he had no problem being associated with them.)
