  1. JaMarcus Russell busted for possession of codeine w/o prescription. How low is the former #1 pick gonna fall?
  2. On your profile page there's a link to all of the threads you've started. =1&view_by_title=1"]Here
  3. Recognize these scoundrels?
  4. Happy B-day, Ro-beer!!
  5. (would have posted this in the previous Tiger thread, but it's locked...) I saw a link to this on another forum I visit, and haven't seen it anywhere else yet, so I don't know how credible it is. But if true, this is a massive settlement for Elin! Tiger Woods is banned from letting girlfriends near his kids in a divorce deal netting his ex a record $750 million settlement, The Sun reported Wednesday. The golfer agreed to keep single women away from daughter Sam, three, and son Charlie, one. Full article: Elin Nordegren Gets $750M, Custody of Kids in Exchange for Silence in Tiger Woods Divorce
  6. It is indeed, although I guess it's probably closer to the song/demo they had before the Yes guys reworked the song rather than a reworking of a Yes song. I'm sure you're right, as it's a track they brought into their partnership with the Yes guys. I wonder how the Horn/Downes/Howe/Squire/White lineup would have evolved had it stayed together and continued producing music.
  7. Any Yes fans ever hear the Buggles' version of "Into the Lens" (aka I am a Camera)? Interesting to hear how Horn/Downes re-did the song after doing it on Drama with Howe/Squire/White... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcjHi6-bpdQ Here is Yes' version (w/cheesy homemade video): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvz6cUWsw9w
  8. Interestingly enough, he was also the voice of Gollum in the Rankin/Bass editions of The Hobbit and Return of the King, though not Bakshi's Lord of the Rings (despite the three being available as a set).
  9. Is that the same guy that was on Letterman for a while? He was wild!
  10. Happy Birthday, Phil!
  11. I really like Damnation quite a bit also. Ghost Reveries and Watershed as well, though Damnation is the high point for me. Depending on my mood I either like or really dislike the cookie monster thing on the other albums though. I’ve still never heard Blackwater Park, so I guess I should check that one out soon.
  12. Rest in Peace, Fred.
  13. Hadn't seen that one, thanks Shawn!
  14. I assume you don’t want King Crimson recommendations, but other Fripp recordings (?). I like these (and probably a bunch of others too): Robert Fripp – Exposure Robert Fripp/Brian Eno – No Pussyfooting Robert Fripp/Trey Gunn/Bill Rieflin – Repercussions of Angelic Behavior Robert Fripp String Quintet (w/Trey Gunn & California Guitar Trio) – The Bridge Between Robert Fripp/Andy Summers – I Advance Masked Robert Fripp/David Sylvian – Damage Robert Fripp/Theo Travis – Thread

  20. This would seem to be a major drawback for a sexually active woman. The woman can remove it from herself any time she likes - it would just be something to be used when she's concerned she'll be in a position of vulnerability, I think. So it wouldn't prevent her from having a sexually active lifestyle. I think they're saying it can only be removed from the male by a medical professional. Once it's on the male's johnson, he would have to go to a doctor to have it removed. Theoretically he's just assaulted someone, so the the doctor would report the dude to the police. I agree with some of the other comments above though - if it's only mildly painful, it's only going to enrage the rapist to start with, meaning probably more violence for the victim. And I can also envision women using the thing as some sort of retribution or something as well...not strictly as a defensive measure. I think it's a step in the right direction for sure though - maybe it can be further developed to be more debilitating. But I don't agree with the argument about it being "too punitive" for the rapist though - he's committing rape, for Christ's sake! I don't agree that it's further sexualizing women or artificially altering them or whatever, either. And there should definitely be consequences for any woman found using it for vengeance or whatever - that might constitute assault and battery or something, I dunno.
