    Axe shampoo, Axe bodywash, Axe Spray on Deodorant/Old Spice, and Dove soap. Yup, that covers it.

    I hope you weren't expecting to be carried away by willing females as the Axe commercial suggests. tongue.gif

    Geddy Drawing. Work in progress. Just gotta find my stupid grey felt!

    You're a really great artist! I wish I could do that! smile.gif

    It's a recurring theme to be honest.

    There are those in every generation (whatever a generation really is) who like to trumpet loudly that the succeding one doesn't have the manners they did.

    I remember my parents generation saying that, and i dare say it was the same for their parents too.

    Personally I haven't noticed any fundamental changes..I think some people get confused by changing trends and cultural mores and try and analyse them according to their own ingrained perceptions learned in youth, and you just can't do that really.

    There will always be a few bad apples in evry society and use them as a barometer of cultural change is mistaken.

    I think Fledgehog nailed it pretty well.

    Except it would be nice for a change if fledgehog could respond to a post he doesn't agree with and refrain from calling its author "ignorant", or at the very least making that implication. I've noticed this trend in the MOTS forum as well, and fledgehog, it makes me not want to bother with reading the rest of your response. That's a shame, because you're quite intelligent and much of what you post is well worth consideration.

     

    Just a suggestion.

    goodpost.gif I find myself agreeing with Fledgehog's ideas, but they are hard to read due to that.

    I just want to chime in for the first time in a long time by saying that I'm listening to Power Windows at a very high volume, and I'm baked just right.

    Mystic Rhythms, indeed.

    Are you with Rush?

    According to that recurring dream I keep having, yes, yes, I am.

    This amused me way too much. z7shysterical.gif

  5. I would go with something more feminine. I was tormented in elementary school by people who thought Jordan was an exclusively masculine name. My last name starts with a J as well, and I'm short. Therefore, my classmates assume that it is perfectly acceptable to call me "L'il JJ". rage.gif

    Nook vs. Kindle, Which do you have...?

     

    Neither. So far, I've resisted the urge to replace books with yet another electronic screen which requires me to keep track of yet another battery-charging device in my house.

     

    I may succumb to a Nook or Kindle sometime in the future, but for now I'm still reading BOOKS.

     

    I think with the success of these devices, we're beginning the slow march to a time when "print is dead," as Dr. Egon Spengler had the foresight to know back in 1986. wink.gif

    I understand that many people prefer books, but I don't understand the hostility (for lack of a better word) towards eReaders. It's simply a different way to read books. It isn't destroying books. It's a way to have several books at hand. Books are also cheaper on the Kindle. Print isn't necessarily dead, it's just catching up.

     

    Also, no paper-cuts! tongue.gif

  7. I have a Kindle, and I love it. It isn't in color, but it's a good deal cheaper. My boyfriend has a Nook, and from what I've observed, the Nook glitches a lot. I've never had a problem with my Kindle. The libraries for both are basically the same, and I'm pretty sure the Nook doesn't have as many classics available for free like the Kindle does.

    My Geddy and Rush passion have begun to wane again. That's not good for business. I need to have it rekindled! ohmy.gif

    Oh...that's a step in the right direction. drool1.gif

    Why do they need pyrotechnics with all that hotness on stage already? confused13.gif
