    I will not be there. After a long week of substitute teaching and the cold I will be staying in and staying warm.

    I heard a few of their songs on the Current and wasn't too impressed. Good rock bands are tough to come by.

    Heard that song "Antiphon" on the Current, not that bad. But they lost their singer, I still can't get over that, just doesn't seem like the same band. I'll still give the new album a shot, but nothing will beat "The Trials of Van Occupanther", that album is friggin' awesome.

    I was a pacer for the Hollidazzle parade tonight. I think the temp added some hair on my chest. :lol:

    The moisture from my exhales caused an epic Beard-sicle. Only in Minnesota will a parade NOT be cancelled when wind chills are -20.

    Wouldn't know of anyone with an extra pair, would you? I missed out. This would be the first AM show in our state I've missed.

  • This Bonnie and Clyde thing on History Channel sucks.

    Nothing has been good on the history channel, Discovery, etc for YEARS. All the shows involve swamps, gators, rednecks and antiqueing. I think John Fogerty, Toby Keith and my grandma all do the programming schedule.

    PBS and TPT (the local PBS affiliate) all the way; it is thoughtful, intelligent and insightful programming that respects the viewer.

  • It is a two part movie staring Emile Hirsch. Thought it would be good.

    I know you like organized crime (I realize Bonnie and Clyde weren't really the same thing), but I saw this advertised and dismissed it almost immediately. Emile Hirsch was good in Into The Wild and Milk. History Channel movie about a couple of love-bird thugs? Meh. Pass.
