For Dave3626 (the # slips my mind) I am friends with most of the Red Dirt folks that come out of OKLA, I had my wild years as they were damenchipguy Jun 18, 15:34

If you guys wanted to check it out again; Nick left his band behind but comes home 1-2 a month to keep his fan base happy. damenchipguy Jun 18, 15:59

IDK why I cannot copy/paste! Youtube search Nick Gibson and his song Bottoms Up Music Video. {nm} damenchipguy Jun 18, 16:01

That reminds me, I really need a handle for the boards that's different from my username. Something catchy, fun, easy.. Like "Susan" Dave3626 Jun 19, 17:07

Hows your weather? its Eleventy thousand degrees and as dry as a good Stoli martini here islander Jun 18, 12:06

So whats everyone going to be doing for the summer solstice,it would be worth going to stonehenge on thursday blaze223 Jun 18, 12:35

I was at Stonehenge once. Guide said it used to be forest all around there ceenturies ago. Would've been cool walking thru the woods and Dave3626 Jun 18, 13:24

In the classic words of Ollie Williams: "It's gonna rain!"... {nm} slappydavid Jun 18, 12:55

i wish! i think i will put together a playlist of "rain songs" from itunes: "Have you ever seen the rain", "Here comes the rain again" islander Jun 18, 13:56

here is a list... RazorHawk Jun 18, 16:10

Whyd you leave out the best rain song Blame it on the rain- milli vanilli ? islander Jun 18, 16:32

Fear of ridicule... I have both of their albums RazorHawk Jun 18, 16:48

You're like our information officer, RH. Like Tommy on 3rd Rock from the Sun :) {nm} Dave3626 Jun 18, 16:39

I come from a musical background {nm} RazorHawk Jun 18, 17:00

I remember you saying that before, that you worked in the music industry before.. In what capacity? {nm} Dave3626 Jun 18, 19:23

You're mssing some - I Made It Thru the Rain - Barry Manilow, Have You Ever Seen the Rain - CCR (they had 2 rain songs) {nm} JDolphin Jun 18, 22:06

You shouldn't put the same song on a playlist twice... my list includes Rod Stewart's cover of Have You Ever Seen Rain RazorHawk Jun 19, 10:53

Oh - I thought you were doing a complete list {nm} JDolphin Jun 20, 18:24

in Philly its low 80's today, but should go up to 98 on Thursday... please not... I hate anything over 90... {nm} Oleg Max Jun 18, 14:15

I hate anything over 60. Should move to Alaska someday. {nm} Dave3626 Jun 18, 16:40

+1! Sad thing that I live in a tropical country... {nm} slappydavid Jun 18, 16:50

Just saw 'Battle Royale' (2000) - wow, talk about a sick, twisted movie. O_O {nm} DTravel Jun 16, 17:28

how did you see it? {nm} Moviesnob Jun 16, 18:16

DVD from Netflix {nm} DTravel Jun 16, 21:06

In Japanese with English sub-titles (and whoever did the subtitles did a lousy job of it). {nm} DTravel Jun 16, 21:07

if it was an Anchor Bay DVD, they just ported over the subtitles from the UK release {nm} Moviesnob Jun 17, 10:39

Didn't look for who released and its already been mailed back. {nm} DTravel Jun 18, 16:17

I love that movie! {nm} slappydavid Jun 17, 06:31

Plouffe!!! {nm} MontyBurnz Jun 16, 05:18

Is that the sound that your port is making? ;-) {nm} elchan Jun 16, 14:47

That's the last name of the Minnesota Twins rookie third baseman {nm} alfpaulytd2012 Jun 16, 14:54

No homer today but that's what happens when the other team pitches around you every at bat. {nm} MontyBurnz Jun 16, 16:33

3 (!) walks in 4 chances at the plate {nm} MontyBurnz Jun 16, 16:37

almost makes you forget about Mauer's contract ;) {nm} alfpaulytd2012 Jun 16, 16:54

that was pretty insightful, thanks for sharing {nm} Moviesnob Jun 16, 19:54

Assisted Suicide Laws In Canada Struck Down By B.C. Supreme Court - Ruled Unconstitutional. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2012 Jun 15, 13:50

Since Europe and certain American states have been trending the other direction, I'm surprised by this. {nm} Dave3626 Jun 15, 16:49

Nevermind. They said laws *banning* it are unconstitutional. {nm} Dave3626 Jun 15, 17:06

you are spreading misinformation. laws AGAINST assisted suicide laws ruled unconstitutional. Moviesnob Jun 15, 21:31

Not so. Everybody knows that the US & Canadian laws ban Assisted Suicide (except Oregon & Washington). {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2012 Jun 15, 22:06

To that point, watch: "How to Die in Oregon" I am surprised that is not the model instead of the exception. Suicide does not apply to damenchipguy Jun 16, 06:43

That was an excellent film. We have Quality of Life for our pets, but not for humans. Coming soon in Canada. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2012 Jun 16, 13:56

Not crazy about the idea of putting down human beings like we put down crippled racehorses and old cats. {nm} Dave3626 Jun 16, 18:00

Dave, Please watch "How to Die in Oregon" nobobdy is putting anybody down. They are gonna die soon and do not want to lose their diginity. {nm} damenchipguy Jun 16, 18:54

I watched my own father die slowly and painfully from cancer. I know how bad it can be. But I still can't get on board with this idea. Dave3626 Jun 17, 02:40

I will agree, the lighthearted stuff is better on the life board. Sports, Movies, TV, Music, Jokes that sounds like a nice approach. {nm} damenchipguy Jun 17, 07:42

Speaking of music, weren't you the one with the friendd who sang country songs and had one on YouTube? That was a good song if I remember ri Dave3626 Jun 17, 08:23

Friend of a friend made that film. {nm} BSmurf Jun 16, 16:25

Suicide is legal in BC, but assisted suicide is not. I personally want to live as long as possible even if I have a terminal decease. Never elchan Jun 15, 22:38

Curing a disease is not the same as reversing all the damage it has already done to you. {nm} DTravel Jun 16, 12:06

Really, it's a matter of continuing to have hope. Also if they legalize assisted suicide, this could create a situation elchan Jun 16, 13:26

We already have situations and conditions where one is obligated to kill another. {nm} DTravel Jun 16, 17:26

We do? {nm} Dave3626 Jun 16, 18:01

And please don;t reply with "war". The context is completely different. No national security or defense issues here. {nm} Dave3626 Jun 16, 18:03

Actually in war, one is not obligated to kill another, just a good idea not not let them kill you. Don't know if there's research, but elchan Jun 16, 18:58

The majority of them. DTravel Jun 16, 21:10

Good point. Also, it could be easily abused by greedy heirs and unscupulous attorneys. Saw a report on TV where suspicions like that are on Dave3626 Jun 16, 18:02

Also you can argue that obligating a doctor to kill a patient is an infringement on that doctor's rights. elchan Jun 16, 19:01

A doctor assisting a suicide is viewed as a violation of their Hippocratic oath. DTravel Jun 16, 21:12

In Canada since 1972 only one (1) person has ever been charged with Assisting Suicide. He was acquitted. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2012 Jun 15, 23:26

Everyone interested in this topic should watch Michael Haneke's Amour when it comes out, IMO {nm} Jane_Citizen Jun 16, 17:02

Is it an Australian film? You know how we feel about Aussies around here. {nm} Dave3626 Jun 16, 18:04

For info on this film, Search 'Amour' or 'Love'. Thanks, JC. Looking forward to seeing it in December. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2012 Jun 16, 18:09

I couldn't do it because of my beliefs. wroberson Jun 18, 20:52

Springer's renewed thru 2016? This is truly the decline of Western civilization. Start building the thunderdome.. {nm} Dave3626 Jun 15, 11:02

Didn't even know he was still on air. {nm} elchan Jun 16, 14:47

the Thunder is killing my HSX port, for the first time since I started playing I have been distracted! {nm} damenchipguy Jun 14, 20:09

So the Heat win a game and everyone falls quiet??? {nm} PRodNano Jun 14, 21:57

Not me, it is not over but it will be longer series than I expected. {nm} damenchipguy Jun 15, 10:32

So whats my excuse for being unable to make a profit this week {nm} blaze223 Jun 15, 11:57

Not following news or trends, cannot stay away fromm all things NBA or ESPN. I am huge OK-STATE fan and right now Thunder is more important! {nm} damenchipguy Jun 15, 15:21

NBC is starting the TV season early in August for 2 new shows airing following the Olympics Antibody Jun 14, 12:04

Early action on the TV Stocks ...or do you IPO in Sept with the first one in the books. Probably will not change anything, HSX wise. Buy StarBond Fund 18 Jun 14, 13:43

Is it just me, or did the once loquacious Arf completely disappear from forum conversations? {nm} Dave3626 Jun 13, 17:26

Arf is currently on an extended vacation and cannot participate in the forums because he doesnt know how to use his smartphone {nm} RazorHawk Jun 13, 21:26

lol {nm} tealfan Jun 13, 22:12

You know, you'd be great as one of those guys behind the glass in the information kiosk at Grand Central. {nm} Dave3626 Jun 14, 05:29

A person could get info on movies, HSX, and the Metro-North line, all from RazorHawk ;-) {nm} Dave3626 Jun 14, 05:40

he emailed me about going on a long vacation... and here are his smartphone posts (inside).... RazorHawk Jun 14, 08:46

i wonder if he is on melmac eating cats {nm} islander Jun 14, 08:47

I just hope long vacation isn't code for "in prison". If it is, he should look for a friendly Morgan Freeman type. {nm} Dave3626 Jun 14, 09:44

You know what else you'd be great at? Opposition research for political campaigns :) {nm} Dave3626 Jun 14, 09:45

How did all of Ya'll (Oklahoma word) enjoy our introduction to the world? {nm} damenchipguy Jun 12, 18:18

Meh... Thought they would have had a stonger showing at home. {nm} PRodNano Jun 12, 23:11

Really, what more could we have done? {nm} damenchipguy Jun 13, 09:57

Honestly, I was expecting blowouts at each home game. I didn't expect the Heat to be up by as much as they were early on in the game. {nm} PRodNano Jun 13, 11:30

Fair enough, I was talking about introduction and pregame. IDK why we seem to have to trail before we hit our best basketball. {nm} damenchipguy Jun 13, 19:30

As an avid Toronto Raptor fan, it was a delight to see the Thunder take it to Lebron & Bosh (ex-Raptor). {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2012 Jun 13, 01:06

Any day the Heat lose is a good day but do hope they win one for my 4-1 spread {nm} blaze223 Jun 13, 07:40

Dude, it is spelled y'all. {nm} Tanker Jun 13, 07:59

In his defense, he is actually from Oklahoma, so I think his spelling trumps yours. Unless you too are from a place that uses it. Are you? {nm} Dave3626 Jun 13, 09:44

Thanks Dave; I can assure you the spelling is Ya'll. No worries though I need you to teach me some NY slang. {nm} damenchipguy Jun 13, 09:58

That was for Tanker, if I remember both of us are NYC Giants fans. {nm} damenchipguy Jun 13, 10:00

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y%27all {nm} Tanker Jun 13, 10:16

Sorry, Tanker, but if middle schoolers can't cite Wikipedia as a valid source, neither can you. {nm} Dave3626 Jun 13, 13:56

See which one spell check says is spelled correctly. Tanker Jun 13, 14:18

We're going to trust a dictionary that originated in 16th century England to tell us how "ya'll" is spelled? Dave3626 Jun 13, 14:43

That article says that it was originally spelled "ya'll", and still is in some southern US places. {nm} PRodNano Jun 13, 14:37

See, Tanker? And PRod is a scientist. Generally, they're very smart people. Because they do science. {nm} Dave3626 Jun 13, 14:53

I thought you said that wasn't a valid source. Which is it this time? {nm} Tanker Jun 13, 15:00

It's whatever I feel like at the time I'm typing. Right now, scientists and wiki-P are valid sources regarding Southern slang. Dave3626 Jun 13, 15:23

I'm in the Heart of Dixie. {nm} Tanker Jun 13, 10:15

Well, we all have our crosses to bear. {nm} Dave3626 Jun 13, 13:57

Or burn. {nm} Tanker Jun 13, 14:15

They still doing that down there? Makes me glad I'm north of the Mason-Dixon line. {nm} Dave3626 Jun 13, 14:37

Some of these are jokes. {nm} Tanker Jun 13, 14:59

Nothing funny about a burning cross. Except in "O Brother Where Art Thou". {nm} Dave3626 Jun 13, 15:24

We do not burn crosses, that over the line.I'm sorry for use of the word it is not worth getting upset.I apologize for were this thread went {nm} damenchipguy Jun 13, 19:28

No, the need to apologize is all mine. The entirety of my comments were meant in jest and as is too often the case went astray. Tanker Jun 13, 21:12

We are all good! {nm} damenchipguy Jun 14, 10:43

best Finals of the past decade starts tonight....I think we have some Heat Fans here, but we certainly have a HUGE Thunder fan in damen. lobogotti Jun 12, 09:27

Thanks Lobo, I forgot the format for finals was 2/3/2 that said I have to go Thunder in 6. {nm} damenchipguy Jun 12, 10:38

Blaze, I play golf but not a good judge of picking winners. If there is a prop for the field against Tiger that is probably the bet. damenchipguy Jun 12, 10:40

Tiger as a golfer awesome as a human being..........................wont be backing tiger as no value so as usual will blaze223 Jun 12, 11:23

Sounds like Alf is the one to listen to on golf. Good Luck, I just want the Open to be entertaining. {nm} damenchipguy Jun 12, 16:24
