  1. Thanks Rachel! I suggested to my sister that it might be Dan Fogelberg, but the name Longer Than doesn't mean anything to me. I googled his greatest hits albums, and none of the titles were familiar. I'll let my sister know.
  2. My sister has asked me who did a song (I'm pretty sure it was a hit in the 70s) whose last line was "I'll be in love with you." I'm pretty weak on 70s music, and I thought someone here would know. As I recall, the singer has a fairly high voice, and I would call the song soft rock, maybe 70s folk rock. My sister says that the melody goes: g ed efgagecd g ed efgaba g ed efgagecd gfe(flat) dc Thanks!
  3. Here's a good article about the players scheduled to become free agents Saturday: http://www.globesports.com/servlet/story/R...tsFootball/home
  4. Chuck, Tim Horton was a hockey player. He played at the end for the Buffalo Sabres. I think he spent most of his career with the Toronto Maple Leafs.
  5. The Ticats traded Brock Ralph to the Eskimos for Michael Botterill and DB Chris Thompson. http://www.globesports.com/servlet/story/R...tsFootball/home ***** The Bombers traded Rob Pikula to the Lions for DB Sebastian Clovis. The Bombers have had problems kicking, and I'm surprised that they would let Pikula go before training camp. http://www.globesports.com/servlet/story/R...tsFootball/home
  6. I voted #2, but it wouldn't surprise me if they both were charged with perjury.
  7. Do you think he'll have any trouble getting it?
  8. Here's an interesting article from CNN about what constitutes bad weather and justifies a weather delay in the airlines' eyes. http://www.cnn.com/2008/TRAVEL/traveltips/...ref=mpstoryview
  9. I've just signed up for mine. If I understood it correctly, the coupon must be used within 90 days of its being issued, but it will not be issued until the converter boxes are in the stores, which it says will be later this month or next month.
  10. Tom, now the pressure's on you!
  11. Thanks Chris! Quite a number!
  12. aloc, right away I looked for the Canadian league and Australian rules football, and I didn't find any. But I did find this: http://deadspin.com/354906/introducing-the...s#poll_=UTOzQTM
  13. Bummer. I received word today that this is no longer available. Damn. I'm a moron. Have been meaning to order that from BMG/yourmusic for the longest time... Me too TD. I'm going to have to stop acting as if what they have they will have forever.
  14. Care to share that phone number? (317) 692-9200 I think I read somewhere, maybe even in this thread (!) that they have an 800 number, but I didn't make a note of it.
  15. Another good memory. Sad ending http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html...750C0A9679C8B63 Thanks for that, Paul.
  16. When I think of the Pistons, I think of Walter Dukes!
  17. Bummer. I received word today that this is no longer available. I called them up to make sure that I could use the discount code on something else, and I ordered the Bird 3 CD Verve Master Takes box.
  18. Jim Zorn was named the head coach of the Redskins Saturday. I haven't seen anything that mentions that he played for the Bombers in '86. http://www.globesports.com/servlet/story/R...tsFootball/home
  19. http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D8...;show_article=1 Grammys a Ho-Hum Affair for TV Viewers Feb 11 12:13 PM US/Eastern By RYAN PEARSON AP Entertainment Writer 51 Comments Amy Winehouse Wins Big At Grammy Awards LOS ANGELES (AP) - Amy Winehouse, Herbie Hancock and Kanye West didn't provide quite enough drama to enthrall television viewers. Preliminary estimates indicate the Grammy Awards telecast was watched by 17.5 million people. Nielsen Media Research said Monday that would make it the third least- watched Grammy Awards ever if later estimates confirm those numbers. Viewership is down from the 20 million people who watched last year. The 2006 awards, with 17 million viewers, is the Grammy low point. The show had 17.3 million viewers in 1995. On a night filled with nods to the show's 50-year history, the most trophies went to Winehouse, a 24-year-old singer known for her old- soul voice. The most sought-after prize, for album of the year, went to veteran jazzman Hancock for his Joni Mitchell tribute disc.
  20. Happy Birthday Bruce!
  21. Thanks for the heads up FFA! I can afford $4.99!
  22. Happy Birthday Michael!
  23. RIP. I enjoyed him in The Seven Ups, which was made on the heels of The French Connection, and was a movie built around a car chase. I felt the movie was better than what it was given credit for, and it was a doozy of a car chase!
  24. That's my opinion too, Bill. And I think it's the majority opinion. We're all supposed to be friends here. I think disclaimers are for people who don't trust each other.
  25. Sask has traded DE Fred Perry, who was a league all-star the past two years, to Edmonton for third string QB Steven Jyles. Do you figure it was a salary issue? http://www.globesports.com/servlet/story/R...tsFootball/home ***** The Eskimos cut Trevor Gaylor this week. http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Football/CFL/Edm...837311-sun.html
