I'm in the 700 club - Ask me ANYthing!
Because people who live in the blue parts of Ah-HIGH-Ah can reason somewhat logically. Sometimes. :think:

4. They broke the mold with Ward Cleaver.
Firm, but understanding and kind. Realistic as well. Often times I wish he would have kicked that tool Fred Rutherford's ass.

8. I met some cool Meechiganeers at the Coronation
We were all joking how everyone was bundled up in 37 degree weather when that's pretty much like a cold fall day where we're at.

That whole OSU/Michigan thing . . . it's sports. It is what it is.

How can I hate Michigan? At least they know how to vote, unlike the dumb country sons of bitches in my ass-backwards state that screwed everything up and gave Lancelot Link the keys to the palace . . . AGAIN.

I quit drinking when I was 19.
When I did - it was Watermelon Schnapps with kiwi
Now, it's a tumbler full of Red Bull.

Do you have a favorite band/singer?

14. Ward, don't you think you were a little hard on the Beaver last night?
Still the single funniest line in the history of network television.

16. What bands do you hate, that everyone you know likes?
I was quite entertained by your responses to a similar question regarding movies. I'm quite interested in what you have to say regarding music.

17. Hoooo man, got a couple of days?

Bands I hate that everyone else likes . . .

Tool. I don't so much HATE them, I just don't think they're the greatest thing since sliced bread that their over-slobbering fans make them out to be. Tool to me = Neurosis-lite.
Rage Against the Machine. Decent message, but just foooking annoying and same-sounding.
Dave Matthews Band. Don't get the appeal, never will. Great musicians, boring as fuck songcraft. I couldn't make it through any album given to me.
The Mars Volta. Again, not a HATE thing; I SHOULD like this band, but for some reason I don't. They have their moments of brilliance but as an overall package, and in terms of songs (especially with this new album) there's just nothing there to hold on to.
Oasis. HATE this group, yet many of the people I talk to hate them too, so I'm not really alone in this.
Radiohead. I respect what they do, but again, not the greatest thing since sliced bread their fans make . . . yeah.
Jam bands. Dead, Phish, ekoostik Hookah, Rusted Root, etc, Just . . . no. Must be a pot/LSD/X thing, 'cause I get NOTHING out of listening to it. I like my mellow-vibed epics to GO somewhere and be catchy.
AFI. I like maybe ONE song by them.
Barenaked Ladies. I love Canada. Canadians are cool people. I love Rush, Voivod and DBC. Neil Young . . . OK guy. Yet I really . . . REALLY fucking hate this band. To me, it's like the musical equivalent to Friends, the sitcom. Eccch.

18. Only 25 more posts for me!
Took me 3 freakin' years to get INTO the 700 club, and looks like it is going to take me two weeks to get out of it! So feel free to ask me anything, too!

Peace,
Bella

20. Hi RadFemFL!

24. That's a hard question...
as I am a movie addict! I love Morgan Freeman as well, and like anything he is in. I would say right now my favorite movies, as counted by the ones I have watched the most within the past couple months on DVD are:

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Almost Famous
Shrek 2
Chocolat
Pulp Fiction

I have about 180 DVDs. So it's really hard to decide!

21. Shall we pray together for your swift exit from this godforsaken club?
Edited on Wed Mar-09-05 02:39 PM by WMliberal
While you're there... please try and sabotage their machinery. Their damn show is on about 15 times a day on 8 different channels here.
