"You are here because the world as you know it no longer makes sense.
You've been raised on television to believe we'll all be millionaires and movie gods and rock stars - but we won't.
You pray for a different life." Tyler Durden
Now thats depressing, man.
By the way been meaning to ask you what you did with that hunk named Angel. Pleeaaase put it back.

Hey there Lady Bugeye!
I had to change the angel pic. I was getting too many emails from girls that thought I was a hottie. lol not kidding either.
The quote is from one of my all time favorite movies "Fight Club". I highly reccomend it! You and Bugs will love it.
Slayer
Hey Slayer
I bet you were. LOL
Thanks for the movie recommendation, I've never heard of it. Maybe BugEye can look for it next time he gets a video.

Hey Slayer,
I thought the movie Fight Club was fascinating from the psychological standpoint. A person so ill at ease in his life that he unknowingly creates a real alter, - the ultimate alter ego.
I've watched it 3 times - just to understand all the inuendos of the dialogue. Really better each time it's watched. I don't get into all the fighting, etc., but I understand the reason it's in the show.
On Music?
I sometimes buy those compilation of hits - we have a car accessory/stereo store. It's amazing how many people from 50 to 20 like/agree on older rock - like Aerosmith, Led Zeplin, Genesis, etc. When I work alone, love to crank it up when I have all the doors locked.
I think the movie "Armageddon" had a terrific soundtrack - including ZZ Top.

I have T1 access, a CDR and an eclectic taste for music. I am a music machine. I have more CDRs than legal ones. Call me the Dread Pirate Reagan...
I grew up listening to my parent's music... Boz Scaggs, Billy Joel, Exile, Donna Summer, Cat Stevens, Jim Croce, Gordon Lightfoot, Simon & Garfunkel, Three Dog Night, Guess Who, Cream, Zeppelin, Sabbath... my parents actually had decent taste in music. I developed my own tastes in the late 80s (I was still just a kid; my husband was in college in the 80s) so we share a lot of the same music -- loved New Order, Depeche Mode, Erasure, Audiovox, Tori Amos, REM, Annie Lennox, Breeders, Jellyfish, Pixies, Pavement, Talking Heads, Tears for Fears... Oh, I could go on and on...
www.audiogalaxy.com is a great site, allows you to share music files. It lets you set your location in the world so that you can download the songs you want from the person closest to you... which cuts down on bandwidth. There are tons of audio files, including South Park soundbites and Margaret Cho standup routines (MORAN!! LDH!)
I've heard a rumor that the satellite program that you must download contains a little spy program... I don't know if this is true or not, but consider yourself forewarned if you decide to check it out.
If you are interested in my current collection of tunes, my username is --ironically enough-- reagan_oconnor
Cheers,

Anyone remember Johnny Winters or Head East? I used to Party with the lead singer of Head East, Roger Boyd, after the demise of the band, he used to live across from my Grandma in Illinois. Guy couldn't even cash checks in the bar we used to drink at, a real shame.
RUSH (especially 2112)
Bob Seger (anything)
Mammas and the Pappas (anything)
the song MANDY
Puff the Magic Dragon
almost anything from the seventies BEFORE the DISCO era, Disco reminds me too much of my days at the HEAD SHOP (remember those?)
Time In A Bottle (Jim Croche)
Operator (same guy)
Bad Bad Leroy Brown
and MANY MORE
mostly now I listen to 60's and 70's era music.
Ahh the memories (Memories, light the corners of my mind, misty water colored memories, of the way we were)
MacArthur Park, don't ask me why, I just like it ("some one left the cake out in the rain" what the hell does that mean?)

Anyone like "The Carpenters." When I was a little girl, I loved that group. Still love their music. It about broke my heart when Karen died in 1983.

First: YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO GIVE AWAY THE PLOT!
Second: I agree about liking the movie. I didn't think I would. It actually took me a couple of years after it had come out till I would agree to watch it. I thought, wrongly, that it was just another "guy movie" for guys who like movies (TBS plug there).
Music that has touched my life (either thru lyrics or voice or beat):
In My Life: The Beatles
Cry Little Sister: Sisters of Mercy
People are Strange: The Doors
I Love: Don Williams
Higher: Creed
Possesion: Sarah McLachlan
Dragula: Rob Zombie
Goodbye Blue Sky: Pink Floyd
Feelin' Groovy: Simon and Garfunkel
No One is to Blame: Howard Jones
Don't Give Up: Peter Gabriel and Kate Bush
There are too many to mention!

Cat Stevens, Father and Son.
Leonard Cohen, Tonight will be fine.
Sinead Lohan, To Ramona.
Kirsty McColl, Days.
Elkie Brooks, Lilac Wine.
Pogues/Dubliners, Irish Rover
Eric Clapton, Lay down Sally.
Donna Summer, Hot love.

Oops......... figured the movie'd been out waaaay long enough to actually talk about it. Besides, if you're really interested in the actual thought plot - it'll take two times. At least, it did for me.
Besides - I'm pissy and I don't care. It has nothing to do with me being an american - and all to do with being a middled aged woman (just so I don't offend anyone.) Very few middled aged women get offended - we are The Offenders
Cravin' Melons A local group around South Carolina - been here long time. Kinda bluesy, rock, country, etc. I have one of their cd's. Good stuff!
