    ...all links simply shamelessly stolen from Killer Rush pics

  2. Geddy Lee wants you:

    Why, why, why is Ged so freakin' hot?!?!?!?!?

     

     

    I thought y'all might enjoy milady Sodoff's contribution to the CP board's thread " What would you ask, if you could ask three questions" of the members of Rush:

     

    Geddy

     

    What's your favorite safety word?

    Are you allergic to Latex?

    Could you put your hands behind your back?

     

    Alex

     

    Could you help me fasten these cuffs to Geddy's wrists?

     

    Neil

     

    Can I borrow those sticks?

    Yeah, oh yeah!!!!!

    (channeling Ged at the opening of "Finding My Way")

  3. Jeez, only one? laugh.gif

    Poor ol' CoS, never gettin' much love...but most of us can see why!

    I'm amused by "I Think I'm Going Bald," but I feel like I'm laughing with them...whereas I think, uh, I've kinda been laughing at them in the more over-the-top parts of The Necromancer. So I'll choose it as least fave.

    I used to call its companion "The Fountain of Lameness"--but I actually like most of its parts. smile.gif

    Rushchic is lucky..she got to SMELL Geddy wub.gif

    cool.gif

    LOL, that's part of why I posted it!!!

    But I don't know where my edit function has gone or I'd go back & fix that it's

    Rushgirl (from Toronto, I believe)

    not Rushchic

    in these pics--

    can be tough to keep various RushGals' screennames straight!

    Sorry ladies!

     

  5. This one is Rushchic's, and I know some of you have seen it before, but since it just made a reappearance on THIS excellent thread over at Counterparts, I thought it was worth repeating, with her commentary:

     

    I have met them. Not "officially" Neil, though he was at the party but I decided to leave him alone.

    Geddy and Alex were both AWESOME and smelled great, btw!!http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c133/Geddy2112/gedandI.jpg

    I read somewhere that it was an intentional bastardization of a couple of different languages.

    Definitely!

    After all:

    German for "friend" is pronounced, but not spelled, Froind (it's Freund -- think "Freud"!)

    Similarly, proper Spanish would be "Buenas Noches" and not Buenos Nochas

    (bonus nachos? wink.gif )

    --they're jes' havin' fun!

    The correct translation for friend to German is "Freund".

    Miriya was absolutly right there, but I am not sure what she ment with Freud?

    Do think of Sigmund Freud then`This is only a name without a connection to the word Freund.

     

    Gute Nacht, meine Freunde biggrin.gif

    Ja, mein Freund!

     

    All I was aiming at with the reference to Freud was that most English-speakers who do not know German do still know to pronounce the good doctor's name not as"Frood" but as "Froid"--and if they know that, then they shouldn't be surprised that "Freund" is pronounced "Froind"! smile.gif

    So you're quite right:

    for sound, "Do think of Sigmund Freud"

    for sense, "then`This is only a name without a connection to the word Freund.'"

     

    but if you like your Schiller/Beethoven, you could also think of

    Freude, schoner Gotterfunken! (sorry for lack of umlauts here...) smile.gif

  7. For my 100th post, I would like to say that although it's fun to look at Geddy

    (all different kinds of fun! amusement...excitement...etc!), it's hearing Geddy that I really love:

    was just listening to "Subdivisions" on our newly-arrived Imaginations on Fire bootleg, and loving that extra kick he gives--as on the album (but not always in concert)--to "in the backs of cars"!!!

    It just lays me prostrate...what can I say? :bow: wub.gif

     

    Though I'm more amused than slain when I think of him looking like this:

    hmmm....I dunno...maybe I take it back--still pretty hot!!!

     

    but more recent = more better smile.gif :

  8. BassUnderPressure, I'm surprised! I like the nice li'l acoustic ditty that In The End starts out as...and love the moment when it comes back big & bad & electric!

     

    I don't hate any of these songs, but Rivendell does the least for me...

    watched monday's (2/13) Tivo'd episode last night

    man! the bad guy ALWAYS gets away....

    ...except for when he gets offed!

     

    ...but then, even when the bad guy gets a knife in the gut there's a Bigger Baddie left to chase!

    I just found this pic. I don't know if it's been posted before but I love it!
    wub.gifhttp://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c74/kadialin/gedkeys.jpg wub.gif

    Thanks Daylin...I haven't seen it before!

    Ah, the '80s!!! That shirt makes me laugh... (Better than those eyeshadow pics* from the 70s though!)

     

    *oh, and you're right: Geddy and Alex were definitely wearing blush & lipstick in those photos too! (A necessity--otherwise the foundation makeup would leave them looking pale & wan!) tongue.gif
