51. Exploitation.

Doesn't Mr. Jackson realize it's just too soon to be releasing a Hollywood fantasy epic called The Twin Towers?

Catchy Tune. Is that the tune du jour at C&F? Can you play o'Connel's Lammentation yet?

Yes, but he was just as literal-minded in some of his comments, I thought.

I guess it boils down to three possibilities...

The author was really stupid

The author was making fun of really stupid people

The author was trying to make a fuss by fooling really stupid people.

That's 3 "really stupids" and only 1 "fun"... so my vote goes for "really stupid"! ;)

I'm always watching out for whatever they mention, sometimes I like it, sometimes they are too hard for me to play and sometimes I just don't like it.

I can play all of O'Connell's Lamentation except for that 2-3 bars with the flats in it. God help me, I can't do it.

I'm still working on it though. I take some days off, then work on it again. I really enjoy playing Hector the Hero on that Meg C.

I hope you're not suggesting that JenB and I are really stupid for thinking the list is making fun of really stupid people.

If you do, I'll be forced to turn you into something unnatural. ; ' )

Not at all! Humor is completely subjective after all... I may question your taste, but not your intelligence! ;)

* Homage or theft VI?

The Bilbo Baggins character was clearly stolen from Leonard Nimoy.

I vote for 'The stupid author was stupidly making fun of really stupid people'. I think now that I have spent more than enough time on this stupid guy! How stupid of me!

It never comes out right for me. I'm an abject failure when it comes to those notes.

Steve's home. I'm going to log off till the morning. Night all!

Well, the topic is either the list or whistling.... The second of which you and I know nothing about! We are kinda between a rock and a hard place... Where's that "assassination plans of unknown leaders with unpronouncable names" thread?

It is still in front page news. I guess that late August is known as a slow news time for good reason. Things are certainly slow on FR since peace broke out here. Well, we will be in the buildup for the one year anniversary of 9/11 by the end of next week, this is a good time to catch up on rest. Which I guess I will do now. Goodnight!

Going to sign off, do a little reading, and go to bed... I guess it's up to you to turn out the lights tonight. ;)

Have a good night!

The medication I requested and that the computer said it gave me was not the medication I was holding in my hand. There was a "discrepancy" with the pharmacy that loaded the machine. A controlled substance too...as it were.

And just think. If you hadn't caught it, Old Mr. Gower would've gone to jail for killing that family...

What...oh...never mind...

Apparently they made the beasts by crossing Orcs, Goblins and the French.

Okay, that was funny...

What's scary about that list is that the guy is either 1) that stupid or 2) trying to be funny, which brings us back to point one...
