PHILLYQ

Just send Hiroshi an email, let him know what you want, etc. He answers quickly and ships even faster.

Ghost, Congratulations! Please do post the website if it's streamed- that's around the time I lurk around my computer.

I'll be 48 soon, and i think I'm relatively healthy. My skin is sometimes a mess,as I inherited screwed up skin(When I get together with my two sisters we talk psoriasis, acne, eczema, the whole gamut of skin diseases!), and when it's really damp and chilly my left knee feels kinda funny(arthritis, but not painful or any reduction in mobility). I had the left knee 'scoped in '96, nose surgery in 2002(My septum was a wreck, and I never did cocaine! When some of my friends started to go that way I was very broke and couldn't afford it! Sometimes being broke is a blessing), shingles last year(PAINNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!), but it's June and no health problems yet this year. I lost 40 lbs from last year, so I stopped snoring(happy wife, rested PHILLYQ) after a two year nightmare of hardly any sleep. I don't have to take any medication, but I do still battle depression, albeit it's nowhere near as deep as it used to be and the depressions don't last as long, either. I'd say I'm doing pretty well for an old bag.

I just donated and I'm glad I did- this forum is fantastic! Ben Wallace agrees, too

As discussed previously, Hiroshi Tanno's service is top-notch. Everyone on the board who has dealt with him would recommend him highly.

The Pistons also had the Brooklyn, NY advantage- Larry Brown was born and raised in, as Ralph Kramden put it, 'the garden spot of the universe'. As the song NY NY goes, "if you can make it here, you'll make it anywhere"- is my Brooklyn pride showing?

My sister once worked for an insurance company and came across a customer by the name of Austalia Shitts. A name that is also a sentence!

For all the pleasure and knowledge I get from this board I'd be happy to donate- just tell me where to send it and it's on the way!

Christ, Noj, Don't tell me you are amongst the ranks of Oakland Raider whiners... That call was made because it was in the rule book. You could argue that the rule is not a good one, but the refs simply judged that it was not a fumble as interpreted by the rulebook. Instant replay didn't overturn it. These types of calls are judgment-based and could go either way. No football fan need get overly wound up about them. That's football. Raider fans should lament the fact that their team was unable to stop Tom Brady afterwards when it counted. It didn't matter what happened on that play. The Patriots still needed to score...and they did. Lay some blame where it belongs: the Raiders couldn't stop them when they needed to.

Lakers win game 5...

He's warped enough- he'll fit in perfect around here. Welcome, oh cylinder of heat.

I have no design skills at all, but put me down for a large of whatever shirt is designed. This is a firm order, I want one of those bad boys to tool around Brooklyn in. people will ask what it is, and it'll be my pleasure to tell them what Organissimo is. have you thought of incorporating the web address somewhere in the design of the shirt? This could help as far as exposure and a quick entry to the website for more info- and we're usually nice to newbies, too.

If he lets it out, the Pistons will win.

Speaking of great lawyering, let's not forget Claus Von Bulow- Alan Dershowitz got him out on appeal. Guilty as sin! Stupid juries- Jayson Williams trial- one juror said he didn't look like a cold-blooded killer! He's drunk, he curses a guy while holding a loaded gun, points it at the guy and then the guy has a gaping hole in his chest. Gulity as sin! With those two cases and OJ, the common thread is that the criminal had much green for great lawyers.

The funny thing is that in NYC we never have a riot after winning a championship. Most people would pick NYC as the first to riot.

Here's a link to a cool cartoon that appeared in Tuesday's papers: http://featurepage.creators.com/washpost.h...next=2&name=obh

There's plenty of rockers who dug Sun Ra, Sonny Sharrock, etc. I just bought 'Conquistador' recently, and when I'm in the right frame of mind it just turns my head upside down and shakes out the accumulated crap- cheaper than therapy and just as effective.
