OK, I'm bailing as soon as the show finishes, so well done Gary and please post a setlist (in an interdimensional and non-traditional way, obviously)!!!!.

Right, let's guess what Rush song he's going to play. My vote goes to Madrigal - It would fit in best with the mood at the moment.

QUOTE (Rush! @ Dec 29 2006, 12:09 AM) Hah! Listen to what he's saying right now...! Yep, that's our Goobs!!! OK Gary, where are my pancakes????

Just listening to BB King "The Thrill Is Gone". Hey, it's just about to start Baby!!. Go get 'em Goobs

Don't do it Goobs, the sort of people who work on radio are crackpots, nutjobs and social misfits. Be afraid, be VERY afraid

Old Sean lived alone in Ireland. He wanted to spade his potato garden, but it was very hard work. His only son, Mick, who used to help him, was in an English prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament: Dear Mick, I am feeling a bit down because it looks like I won't be able to plant me potato garden this year. I'm just getting too old to be digging up a garden plot. If you were here, all my troubles would be over. I know you would dig the plot for me. Love, Dad A few days later he received a letter from his son: Dear Father, For CHRIST'S SAKE, don't dig up the garden! That's where I buried all them feckin' BODIES! Love, Mick At 4 A.M. the next morning, a dozen Special Branch detectives and local police officers showed up and dug up the entire garden down to a depth of about six feet. That evening, not finding any bodies, they apologized to the old man and left. The next day the old man received another letter from his son: Dear Father, Go ahead and plant yer spuds now. It's the best I could do under the circumstances. Love, Mick

Loved the book, expected the film to be pure shite, and was pleasantly surprised by it. Why do people insist on investing the Da Vinci Code with some form of esoteric meaning and then get all disappointed and let down because they don't believe in it?. I don't believe in Magreatha, but that doesn't change the fact that I love h2g2. Book Vs Film? The ending has changed a bit, it's not as good as the book, conversely, it's not as crap as you think it's going to be.

I veered towards the 80s, if only for the guitar work on PeW, but 2112 and AFTK confirm it for me - 70s

Dry here For now Forecast says that Galway is getting sick of the rain so it's dispatching it North. We should be swimming by noon!!!!!!! Good morning

It's not raining!!!!!!!!. Trust me, these days, that's news around here. 'Morning all.

The music is the icing on the cake, it's a classic in its own right.......and if anyone contradicts me, they'll answer to "The Penguin"

My favourite Altman film is Short Cuts - I suspect that to say it influenced Crash would be an understatement.

Joanna Newsom - Ys Joan As Policewoman - Real Life (Out of nowhere to become a contender for album of the year) Director - We Thrive On Big Cities

It's cold, wet and the coffee machine at work is broken I'm going to the International Court of Human Rights!!!!. Good morning

Yep, it's on the Revelations DVD recorded in London's Dominion Theatre. To me, Jack Palance will forever be associated with four words...... Believe it..........or not!!!

QUOTE (nobodys hero @ Nov 8 2006, 09:46 PM) I really like the show. I'm not so sure about the direction that it's gone this season and I think it sucks that it will be off the air until January. I'm actually relieved. Last season was a nightmare - Two episodes, a repeat, three episodes, two repeats, an episode, two repeats (repeat to fade)- Did anyone know where they were from episode to episode?. At least now we know where we stand, and hopefully tonight will give us an interesting mini-cliffhanger to hypothesise about for two months. What made it worse for me was not living in the US / Canada, I was dependant on Limewire or Travis's Site to pull episodes off the net, although Irish TV is catching up - We're on Episode 2 of Series 3 this week.

It's emusic update day!!!!!!!!!! Midlake - The Trials of Von Occupanther Drive-By Truckers - A Blessing and a Curse Califone - Roots and Crowns Vetiver - To Find Me Long Gone The Aquarium - Aquarium Dream

According to Damon Lindleoff (Sp?), something will happen in this week's episode that will blow everyones' minds and lead to shark jumping accusations galore. Could be interesting. I actually like the way this series is going so far - Desmond's development is potentially fascinating, the Jack / Ben / Juliet storyline is a good one (heads up to the Dylan fans in the writing team) and Locke is becoming a MAN again.

I don't know the source of this, and hope it's true, but experience has taught me to check Snopes in the next few days and have my hopes dashed!!! It's still funny though........ Marine Corps General Reinwald was interviewed on the radio the other day and you'll love his reply to the lady who interviewed him concerning guns and children. Regardless of how you feel about gun laws you gotta love this!!!! This is one of the best comeback lines of all time. It is a portion of National Public Radio (NPR) interview between a female broadcaster and US Marine Corps General Reinwald; who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military installation. FEMALE INTERVIEWER: So, General Reinwald, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base? GENERAL REINWALD: We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery, and shooting. FEMALE INTERVIEWER: Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it? GENERAL REINWALD: I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on the rifle range. FEMALE INTERVIEWER: Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children? GENERAL REINWALD: I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm. FEMALE INTERVIEWER: But you're equipping them to become violent killers. GENERAL REINWALD: Well, Ma'am, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one, are you? The radio went silent and the interview ended Edit to add Snopes Link Damn!

Doctor's Receptionist They always ask at the doctor's office why you are there, and you have to answer in front of others what's wrong and sometimes it is very embarrassing. There's nothing worse than a doctor's receptionist who insists you tell her what is wrong with you in a room full of other patients I know most of us have experienced this, and I love the way this old guy handled it. An 86-year-old man walked into a crowded waiting room and approached the desk.... The receptionist said, "Yes, sir, what are you seeing the doctor for today?" "There's something wrong with my dick," he replied. The receptionist became irritated and said, "You shouldn't come into a crowded waiting room and say things like that." Why not? You asked me what was wrong and I told you," he said. The receptionist replied; "Now you've caused some embarrassment in this room full of people. You should have said there is something wrong with your ear or something, and discussed the problem further with the doctor in private." The man replied, "You shouldn't ask people questions in a room full strangers if the answer could embarrass anyone." The man walked out, waited several minutes and then re-entered. The Receptionist smiled smugly and asked, "Yes??" "There's something wrong with my ear," he stated. The receptionist nodded approvingly and smiled, knowing he had taken her advice. "And what is wrong with your ear, Sir?" I can't piss out of it," he replied. The waiting room erupted in laughter. Mess with seniors and you're gonna lose!

This is doing the rounds here, but I suspect it'll travel just fine!!! A guy walks into the Letterkenny welfare office, marches straight up to the counter and says, "Hi... You know, I just HATE drawing welfare. I'd really rather have a job." The social worker behind the counter says, "Your timing is excellent. We just got a job opening from a very wealthy old man who wants a chauffeur and bodyguard for his beautiful nymphomaniac daughter. You'll have to drive around in his Mercedes, but he'll supply all of your clothes. Because of the long hours, meals will be provided. You'll be expected to escort her on her overseas holiday trips. You will have to satisfy her sexual urges. You'll be provided a two-bedroom apartment above the garage. The starting salary is $200,000 a year." The guy, wide-eyed, says, "You're Bullshittin' me!" The Social Worker says, "Yeah, well... You started it."

Very nice Johnny - The song is playing in iTunes as I write. Somehow, it makes more sense, I must set up a musical slide show with the pics!.

Vital Signs? NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! TS
