Salamiguy,
Thanks for the Launch scoop. I will carry on the Upsidedown Cross investigation a bit more myself until or unless I run into unmovalbe obstacles. I am still to be your video/ mp3 student if you are willing though. It is time I got with it. I might be in the wrong forum for that. If so someone get me straight, please.See Sleater-Kinney thread for my reply, if you like. Again, I appreciate your help.
Salamiguy,
I tried to access http://www.launch.com, but for reasons unk, I got a Windows "illegal operations" window and had to close the program. Tried to log on twice same thing.
Additionally, I honestly have never tried to run a music video on the ‘puter, much less any of the mp3’s [img]images/smiles/converted/blush.gif[/img]. Long story, transcript infinite. Either way, I can’t check launch. If you can, I would be very appreciative. If you feel like helping me get up to speed with the rest of cyberbornia, also, I would be n your debt. Thanks,
TomAllison,
Thanks again for your reply. The blurb did say it was a satanic metal band, but I read about them maybe 10 years ago, so wasn’t sure about the satan part till you mentioned it. The drumming bit I remember as well. That part is not so odd, especially if that was J playing drums on "How’d you pin that one on me". He definitely can handle a thrash tempo

Per Bearz, I did check scores at begin of 4th qtr and it looked like a classic FG contest [img]images/smiles/converted/cwm33.gif[/img].<FONT>[ August 19, 2001 12:11 AM: Message mutated 1 time, lastly by Halfman ]</font>
I haven’t been here very long but ELJ expressed in words a vibe I felt when coming to dis joint. Hope both that vibe and the gratitude continues. As Wesley Willis says, "I like you a lot in the mix……"

Elise,
Welcome aboard. ELJ is right. I have only been here a few days and he, Salamiguy and Alison were quick to greet me and make me one of their puppets.

All kidding aside, they seem like neat folks so you are in good hands.As far as my intro that I am not going to do on how I first heard Dino Jr, I was still in the Marines stationed in Okinawa, Japan when I was "dosed". There was only one radio station called the Far East Network. I was in an office near where we were doing the paint, sandblast, undercoating and such on all of the vehicles that just came back from Desert Storm when this wonderfully dissonant song came blaring through at about 11am or 12pm, Puke and Cry. Funny, I don’t remember many people telling me Dinosaur Jr. ever had much radio airplay outside the college scene here stateside, yet the only stinking station for thousands of miles around saw fit to help add much joy to a miserable SOB who was not very grateful until late. They also played some stuff like Mary’s Danish (you gotta give props) Dada, and others I succesfully can’t think of at the moment. Anyway that is my minisermon. The soapbox is now available.
Our school rips off students with admirable consistency. For $54.95 no money back guarantee, this too, can be yours! [img]images/smiles/converted/pissed.gif[/img] Try to keep in mind though, no matter what those keepers of our best interest believe they are accomplishing, we have something they can never get back again: time. Not to mention if you keep the dang books you can always go back to them later, as many courses crossrelate. Besides, who can remember verbatim the mass amount of material the profs throw out there. Read study and apply and all gets done in the wash [img]images/smiles/converted/tongue.gif[/img]!

Big ups to Salamiguy and ELJ for kicking out this thread [img]images/smiles/converted/smile.gif[/img] . I heard them about two years ago after catching some good reviews in print. A local college station here played "lLittle Babies" and I was amazed at how fresh they sounded, yet one can tell they have a hardcore foundation folks like us can go nuts over. I only have The Hot Rock now, but soon thatt hopes to change. I have heard Corin just had a baby in wnter or spring and have not checked their site in a bit. Apparently side projects are happening, though

ELJ,
That’s quite an application of the term [img]images/smiles/converted/smile.gif[/img]. Vulnerable as I am to unleashing a torrent of plus and minuses on that, I will just say GWBXYZ would be more palatable if he just took time to consider a perspective of conflict and what it means for another individual to possess such a state of mind. "I’ll knock on it all day……"Thanks, salamiguy and ELJ for your warmth. Salamiguy, I have such a problem turning people on to SK but that’s ok. They are no joke and they are comparable to J in ability to lyrically compel empathize certain emotions. I felt just a strong connection to them upon allowing their music to take root. Enough with Sk though. I don’t want a bad rep from AGAP for cross listings.
As far as jokes, I do not have any today yet I do have a little wordplay a pal from Mississippi taught me years ago. He used the word "impotenant". I’ll let you comment a bit before I clarify, if needed.
This space for rent. Cost: Spillover.

Howdy! I am new to this BBS and already I feel comfortable. Here goes a little lengthy joke:
A trucker died after one too many trips and went to the big rest stop north of us. One day, while on his daily rounds, an angel spotter the trucker sadly sitting on a gray cloud. "What’s wrong fellow?", asked the angel. " I’m lonely and miss my truck", said the trucker. Poof! The angel gave the trucker a brand new Mac. Still, our good buddy continued to frown. "Now what’s wrong?", inquired the angel. " Can’t do much without a trailer." cried the trucker. Shazam!! The angel conjured a trailer for our forlorn friend. Amazingly, the trucker continued his pouting. "I have given you a truck and trailer. What more can you possibly need to be satisfied?", exclaimed the angel. "I can’t do anything unless I have a load to move." replied the trucker. "What will it take to get one?", asked the angel. The trucker said, " a dispatcher." "Sorry," said the angel, "we don’t have any of those here."
