    Best Love Songs (and "your" songs)

    Van Morrison is, well, the bomb. No white man has more soul. "Tupelo Honey" -- classic. "Moondance" -- classic. "Into the Mystic" -- classic. Not to start an argument, but I'd put "Into the Mystic" slightly above "Tupelo Honey". Slightly. The Wallflowers do a nice cover of "Into the...

    FLGS in NE Dallas Metro

    I don't live in Dallas, but my in-laws do, so we visit there a lot. When we do visit, I check out Lone Star Comics. There are a few of them in the metroplex. Some have more game stuff than others, but the one in Irving has a decent selection of games. There's also a really good game store in...

    My Name is Earl - Anyone check it out?

    I liked it a lot and laughed out loud several times, mostly because of Jason Lee. I thought he did a great job. Some laugh out loud lines: "Well, I wanted a legitimate child and a Thanksgiving free of huffing paint and I didn't get neither." "There's nothing like 15 beers, a little...

    So, it's music by angry women. Not music exclusively for angry women.

    Stupid Clint Eastwood....

    Who does Johnny play? Walter? Or do the studio execs take the first sentence of the novels "The Man in Black fled across the desert and the gunslinger followed" a bit too literally? Spolier for book 1:Does Jake fall into a burning ring of fire instead of the chasm below the mountains...

    Worst "science" movie

    While I loathe Armageddon, I have to go with The Day After Tomorrow. The "you gotta be kidding me" moment was not any of the "temperature plummets 500 degrees in 12 seconds" or "global climate change in 72 hours", though. It was the wolves. I mean, really, they have to fight wolves on a...

    What else is going to go wrong this week?

    Many have tried. . . Okay, no one's tried, but I was trying to sound cool.

    Best Love Songs (and "your" songs)

    Well, yeah. :cool: We are actually partial to a cover of that song by Veruca Salt we found on a DM tribute album. Very nice, but the original is great, too. And, with the whole wife/sports thing, Mrs. nakia is totally the woman from the chips commerical. She got me into baseball and college...

    Best Love Songs (and "your" songs)

    Holy freakin crap! That rules. Of course, "bump. . .chicka. . .bump. . .bow" could get old really quick.

    Best Love Songs (and "your" songs)

    That's pretty much what we did, too. "Somebody" was a special dating song. When we were planning the wedding we agonized over what song to dance to. Mrs. nakia bought the Ben Folds CD, listened to it, then immediately called me and said "buy this now and listen to the last song" (we were...

    Best Love Songs (and "your" songs)

    Hey! That's what Mrs. nakia and I danced to on our wedding day. What a great song. We're also partial to "Somebody" by Depeche Mode. We exited the reception to "She's No Lady (she's my wife)" by Lyle Lovett. :D

    Yeah, but I bet Teletubbie Pirates took your mind off the bad week: "Ooooo. . .Arrghh!" :D

    Maybe Teletubbies pirates: "Burble...Tee Hee. . .Yar!"

    Stupid Clint Eastwood....

    Finish the book. I'm always curious to see what people thought of the ending. I liked it, myself. And of course I had to put the spolier tag. I'd be in for it if I didn't. Ka is, after all, a wheel. :)
