The Yahoo version left out the best part of the story:

(from CNN)

It's not just his language abilities that have changed. So, too, has his personality, Terry's parents said. When the speech therapist asked him what she could do for him, "He told her, 'Make love to me,'" said his father.

"That's kind of strange, because he would not have talked dirty before he wrecked."

Right, I'm sure his "personality change" has a neurological cause...it has NOTHING to do with the fact that this guy hasn't gotten any play for the last 19 years!

..... but don't mention that the Larry Young, Basie Roulettes, Shorty Rogers, Grant Green, Blakey, Buddy de Franco, Desmond/Hall, Andrew Hill, Lee Morgan, etc etc Mosaics have been and gone ... ;)

Still time to pounce on the Four Freshmen set though .... :excited:

I can't remember the longest anyone has stayed in a coma and recovered but I believe the longest known Coma is 48-50 years.

Regarding your factoid, Mny: I thought Nauru's chief export was phospherous. Is that related to the bird droppings? Explain.

Where do you get those factoids from?

Your factoid on Bangkok's full name was correct and was even spelled credibly. There is no set transliteration between the Latin and Thai alphabets.

The phosphorus is made from the bird droppings. I believe bird droppings contain 25-28% phosphorus.

Of course the spelling would be credible. What is the point of posting a factoid if you are not correct on your factoid? :rolleyes::g:P

Read as much as I have and you pick up all kinds of info. Trivial Pursuit is not a game you want to play against me. ;)

Imagine what this dude will be thinking when he sees how far entertainment has come from 1984. Meaning TV, movies, VIDEO GAMES!!!! Man, back in 1984 the Atari 2600 and the Commodore 64 were the shit. And Ghostbusters and Return of the Jedi = the best visual effects.

CRAZY!

Wait until he sees computers today and the Net. From his actions he might be a lifetime member on many of those Porn Sites. ;)

I believe he means how they fired DLR than spent 11+ years with Sammy Hager than fired him and got back together with DLR for a NY minute and "fired" him again or conned him and their fans. Depending on which side you ask about what happened. Currently they are in limbo as DLR and Sammy have toured together and separately and Michael Anthony has even toured with Sammy. No one has heard from the VH brothers in a couple years. Their label even dropped VH.

The interesting thing to point out is that next year they are eligible for the Rock and Roll and Hall of Fame.

Yeah you could say all that... or you could just say that they fired David Lee Roth, hired Sammy Hagar and they've sucked ever since.

Isn't that easier? :)
