So, is the US K2 of 'Monk's Music' in mono or are you talking about the japanese version? How about 'Monk & Coltrane'? I've always enjoyed the spaciousness of these sessions. That information about overhead mics being used for the stereo versions makes a lot of sense now.

Definitely comic relief. Remember, I'm from SE Michigan and a long time Detroit sports fan. I don't agree that Dumars has anything to do with it. As I understand it, The NBA is in charge of security for the entire league. Joe is head of Basketball Operations. Blame Tom Wilson, or even Bill Davidson, but there is no way Joe Dumars should be on the hook for this. I agree with this take on the whole fiasco: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2004/writ...eact/index.html

I guess this is what happens when you keep hockey away from Detroit fans for too long. I'm just glad no one was seriously hurt.

I'm tempted to keep this exchange going until you hit the magical 10,000 post count! However, I have to be up early. Have a good night y'all.

Well, you make a good argument for why we need to take back the airwaves. I agree that the skit and so much else is offensive and demeaning to women. TV does play to the lowest common denominator. However, most of the people who I have heard chime in on this subject were not concerned about objectification of women, or anything else resembling any kind of deep thought. They were offended because there was a half naked woman on TV. It wasn't the context, it was the skin. That's where I have seen a difference.

Well, If you do not want your kids to see something like that, then you better just throw the whole damn television in the trash. That skit was nothing compared to DAYTIME television. There has been dry humping on network television for years! I don't see why NOW all of a sudden people are shocked and offended. What about all the erectile disfunction drug ads? What about all the beer ads with twins shaking their twins? Why is this a big deal now? Was this skit the straw that broke the camel's back? I thought we Americans liked a little sex with our violence?

This is the dumbest fucking non-controversy I have ever seen. I think the media is making a much bigger deal about this than the people who complained in the first place. I guess the idiots on talk radio need something to yammer about and whip jesusland into a frenzy.

The Grey Video Ringo is a phat DJ

I just caught this thread as well. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

That's awesome, Paul! Congratulations. That's no easy test. When I was looking for a job this past summer, Paul was kind enough to get me an interview with a bank in Detroit. Although things didn't work out, I am very grateful for the opportunity he gave me. It's always good to hone your interview skills. Plus, I was able to meet one of the Organissimo Forums' nicest members! Good luck in all your future endeavors!

It can work with other flash drives, but they probably won't fit into the socket. It's made to fit the Cruzer Micro USB Flash Drive.

I love my iPod, but I just could not resist picking one of these babies up last night. SanDisk Cruzer Micro USB Flash Drive and Micro MP3 Companion $50 bucks!! I have to have a flash drive for my new job. I'm constantly moving files around from place to place. I talked my boss into buying me the SanDisk flash drive since it works with the Micro MP3 Companion: All you do is copy the mp3's from your computer to the flash drive, plug it into the Micro MP3 Companion, and voila! It uses 1 AAA battery which lasts 9 hours or so. Perfect for working out, short trips in the car, etc... Plus it's cheap, so it wouldn't kill me if I dropped it, unlike an iPod. I'm impressed! It plays MP3 and WMV.

Awesome! Larry is a very good friend of mine. I'm glad enjoyed the gig!

Thanks for reminding me about this record. I heard a review on the radio and it sounds like something I'd dig. On a similar note, I just ordered this from the good folks at Hip-OSelect. http://www.hip-oselect.com/catalogue_ruffin.asp An unreleased David Ruffin album from 1971. Looks very promising. I'll report my findings to the committee.

Also from the mailing list...

Oh, and one more thing. Re: Pain, bacteria, etc... Nothing works better than having another child. Get to work guys!

Sam's Club had a pack of 8 2'x2' interlocking foam mats that we bought for only 10 bucks or so. I couldn't find them on their web site, but you may find them in the store. Also, how about Meijer? They would have to have something. *edit* ah-ha. what GregK said above. They may have been 20 bucks. Still a pretty good deal.

Happy Birthday Paul! May you have many more Patriot wins and good luck with your career in the year to come!

Welcome to the Prince forums!

Yes, we are all blessed! I am having so much fun being a dad. Here is the full size version of my avatar. My son Benjamin who is nearly 8 months old now.

Well, I arrived home tonight to a package from Corwood Industries! I split a box with someone on the mailing list and have 11 CD's to start my Jandek adventure. First up is Ready For The House, ripping to my hard drive as I write this. I'll report my findings to the committee.

I bought a Saturn record back in 1991 when the Arkestra played at Michigan State. I've never even played it. It came in a blank sleeve, The record label is purple and has a date of 1973. Side A The Satellites Are Outerspaceways Inc. 143000 Stereo and Side B 1. Island In The Sun 2. The Invisible Shield 3. Janus 144000 Stereo There is also an address Saturn 5628 Morton St. Philadelphia, PA 19144 I gotta find a turntable!

Please don't tell me we're going to have Haliburton Banner Ads.

Damn. I'm gonna have to change web hosts again.

I just transfered my liitle web page from thechain to www.affordablehost.com. I am pretty excited so far. They have a program called cpanel that you use to administer the site. A couple clicks and you have an invision board installed. It makes everything really easy. They have dedicated servers as well. On their site they say that they are willing to work with you on pricing and details. If you want to check it out, send me a PM and i'll give you admin access so you can play around. It's really impressive. The only downside is that Nessa might have a problem since the servers are in Grand Fucking Rapids. Other than that, it seems like a good company.
