No kind of about it for me; I never got the Beach Boys. I can get into some of the surf scene stuff, but even there the Beach Boys always sounded like pure bubblegum to me.

Okay, that beats the balut I was going to brag about eating...I'll uh...pull out now.

I seriously doubt any players would sign a contract, for various reasons. Because nobody will pay a dime to watch an NFL executive...

I had no idea he was "Bear"; I just knew of him as a well known chemist...

Just to make sure I'm understanding this discussion, Chuck is talking about tweaking a track or two, right? And the 'problem' recordings are what? They have the whole recording narrowed? If that's true, what is the stated reason for doing so?

I dunno guys; he seems legit...

Wow. I've done 7.9 and it's one scary experience; 8.9 must be horrendous.

So what's your ending preference, the movie or the book? The movie. Maybe Raymond Chandler's contributions jazzed it up for me? Plus Cain's Phyllis gains with Barbara Stanwyck's portrayal IMO; I didn't find Walter's motivation in the novel quite as credible as it is in the movie. I liked the book, but I'd rank the film as even better. Actually, I felt his motivation in the novel more satisfying than in the book, but as for the ending, I prefer the movie, and while both endings would have worked in the book, I can't see the book ending working on film.

Nah. I'm the type that thinks that's too much work.

Well, of course you'd say that; you're the type that would...

True Grit.

Sadly, I saw exactly one. And didn't like it. If they start nominating things like Transformer and Twilight movies, I'll be able to see more, but then I'd probably just jump off a bridge. It's tough out here in the boonies.

I'm not sure; I haven't in decades. I just look at the list the next day. I can't imagine actually watching the presentation.

I don't even know what Randy Newman worked on, but heck yeah, but I figure he's still owed more recognition for what he did in the seventies, so sounds good to me!

Random hockey games on Hulu.

Not well, I hope. Until the world pulls it's head out of it's ass and realizes that oil is too precious to waste by rampant burning, I'd rather burn up their oil than ours.
