I think this thread should be merged with the "what would you do with neil for 8 hours" thread When you guys rummage through his garbage let me know what shampoo he uses

Well, we know it's not PERT!

So whenever you watch the Rush in Rio DVD you observe the vast sea of illegals in the audience?

Ever since he remarried, Rush has had a resurgence anyways. So, I'd say that THAT was the reason for the endorsements. When you're on a roll you go with it

I didn't wade through all 9 pages of this crap but I want to say something.

 

Last year I visited New Orleans for vacation. My lady and I took a walk through the garden district. We saw Peyton Manning's house. We saw John Goodman's house. We saw Anne Rice's old house. It's no big deal.

 

We didn't go there specifically to see those properties - it's actually quite a beautiful area with amazing architecture. We saw a lot of houses owned by people I've never heard of as well.

 

The point is that because these people are celebrities it's interesting to see where they live. As long as you aren't camped out waiting for them to open the door or peaking in windows or going through their trash...

 

It aint stalking.

 

By the reasoning put forth here anyone who takes a tour of the hollywood stars homes is a stalker.

There's a difference between getting that map and taking that tour down Celebrity Ave. and Star Blvd. to see a bunch of random celebrity houses in one shot, and going to the trouble of finding one particular private address of a celebrity who is known for not giving his address out, just to drive past his house.

 

I'll stress again that, in the end, Ghostnotes did no harm by doing what he did. It's just a little weird, that's all.

Thanks - I remembered that there was a family connection between the two companies but had forgotten its exact nature.   So do the brothers still hate each other?
