Pirate1974

I think I'm in love. Carla Guigno might just be the sexiest lady on tv. She's playing the same character Jennifer Lopez did in "Out of Sight" but Carla would kick JLo's behind all over Miami. If the writing stays good, this should be a hit. Don't tell my wife.

The more I read Mike's posts, the more I see him as a guy who reads these threads and thinks, "Now what is the most outrageous thing I can post that will get the most people fired up so that they'll respond to me." Kind of like a two-year old screaming for attention. Nobody could really be that much of a moron. Could they?

As best I can remember, that position involved the woman's legs being on the man's shoulders, or something like that. Must have been one of VP's favorites. Now what the heck is "eggs in the hole?"

"Taking the dirt road" is anal sex. Nice, isn't it?

This class was the beginning of the end for me in twi. It was just so ridiculous. The long list of slang terms was very educational. I learned a lot I had never heard before. "Taking the dirt road" is the one that has always stuck in my mind, no matter how hard I've tried to get it out of there. Of course everybody remembers the pictures right out of "101 Sexual Positions." Basically, they were just cheap black & white 50s-60s era pornography. I can remember VP pointing out one that was supposed to the best for getting the deepest penetration. Thanks, Doctor. I don't know if they did this in every class, but at the end we were supposed to answer a list of questions like "How old were you the first time you had sex?" "Have you ever had a homosexual/lesbian experience?" "Have you ever participated in oral sex, anal sex, group sex, etc. etc. etc." This was supposed to be anonymous and for "research purposes" but it was pretty bizarre and I really wonder what they really did with those. The weirdest thing for me though was the whole "original sin was masturbation" teaching. When we broke up into our little discussion groups after that one, I remember asking the other people if they really believed that and they all did. Our group leader said something like "We might not understand it all but Dr. Weirwille does and that's good enough for me." What a crock. I was on the way out the door after that.

If it's just a hamstring pull, the football trainers recommend the RICE treatment: Rest, Ice, Compression (ace bandage), Elevation. If it's a tear, you'd better get to a doctor.

I-285 around Atlanta is the only place I've ever been where it scared me to drive. Bumper to bumper at 80 miles an hour. Lewis Grizzard's advice to Atlanta residents in the event of a nuclear attack: "If you live on the South side of Atlanta, get on I-75 and go south. If you live on the North side of Atlanta, get on I-75 and go north. If you are a Yankee get on I-285."

Here's a perfect recipe for those guys who just aren't sure how to tell when poultry is cooked thoroughly, but not dried out. Give it a try. 6-7 lb. whole chicken 1 cup melted butter 1 cup stuffing 1 cup uncooked popcorn salt & pepper Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush chicken well with melted butter, salt and pepper. Fill cavity with stuffing and popcorn. Place in baking pan in the oven. Listen for popping sounds. When the chicken's a$$ blows out the oven door and flies across the room, it's done. And my wife says I don't know how to cook.

Well, that bites. The closest they'll be to here is Atlanta. The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenement halls

Here's a link to a website where you can see if there's a drive-in in your area: Drive-Ins Check it out.

There's still a drive-in near here in the little town of Belmont, NC. $7.00 a car any time and they show all the top movies. Last time we were there, the sweet smell of wacky tobacco came drifting from a few rows back. Almost enough to get a little contact high. Ah, the good old days.

If you really like westerns, like I do, you'll enjoy this movie. If you don't, then you should probably save your money. The good guys vs. bad guys plot was old when John Wayne was alive but it's done very well here. Seeing Robert Duvall in this is worth the price of admission. You have to give director Kevin Costner credit as he pretty much lets Duvall steal the film. If he doesn't at least get nominated for an Oscar, I'll be surprised. Check it out if you like a good cowboy movie.

Collect the whole set.

"Gladiator" more forgettable than "American Beauty?" I doubt that. I still can't believe it beat out "The Green Mile" for best picture. One of my favorite movies that has held up well over time is the 1959 classic "Some Like It Hot" with Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon and Marilyn Monroe. I've seen this dozens of times and almost know the dialogue by heart and it's still funny every time I see it. It was on Sunday on Turner Classic and I watched it again. Curtis and Lemmon do the old "men dressed as women" bit funnier than anybody and Marilyn never looked better.

Edison Field is where the Anaheim Angels play.

Mel is financing this movie with $25 million of his own money so I guess he can do whatever he wants. I wouldn't think the lack of subtitles would make much difference in this film since the story is so familiar. You probably won't have much problem following the action even if you can't understand the dialogue. I wouldn't be surprised if the distributor, 20th Century Fox at the moment, tries to pressure Gibson into using subtitles to increase the ticket sales. James Horner, who won an Oscar for "Titanic" is doing the music.

Mel Gibson filmed this movie completely in Aramaic and Latin and does not plan to use subtitles in it. It will be interesting to see if he sticks with that when the movie is released in April 2004. Gibson has been getting all kinds of grief from Jewish groups because he shows the Pharisees and priests as Jews and from Catholic groups who are complaining that the movie follows the scriptures too closely. Go figure.

I normally don't like animal movies, especially horse movies. Too sappy, most of them. I think the only other horse movie I ever saw that I liked was "The Black Stallion." I had to go see "Seabiscuit" with my wife because she went with me to see "Pirates of the Caribbean." Sort of like a payback. I was pleasantly surprised. It was a really good movie. A little long and kind of slow getting started, but once the horse gets into it, it really takes off. Yeah, it's kind of like a horse version of "Rocky" but it's done very well. If you want to see this, don't wait for it to come out on video. The horse racing scenes are awesome and just wouldn't be the same on the small screen. You really feel like you're in the middle of the race.

Mick Jagger is 60 years old today. Impossible. "What a drag it is getting old."

Mike, Don't you know that intentionally trying to kill a thread is the surest to keep it going?

The only Christian music I really listen to is bluegrass. If you like that, Ricky Skaggs' "Soldier of the Cross" is really good.

There's only one small problem with this device. It translates your cat's meow into Japanese.

That album was called "Golden Throats" and included such classics as Leonard Nimoy doing "Proud Mary," Andy Griffith doing "House of the Rising Sun," and Sebastian Cabot talk-singing "Like A Rolling Stone." I'm surprised Dylan didn't sue over that one.

I remember "Pray for the Wildcats" very well. The fourth member of that motorcycle trip was that superstar of the 70s - Marjoe Gortner. Whatever happened to Marjoe? Seeing Mike Brady smoking a joint was pretty funny, but Andy Griffith as a hard *** just didn't work. "Duel" I remember too. Seemed pretty scary at the time. The others I don't remember at all. One of my favorite TV movies from that time was "Tribes" with Jan-Michael Vincent as a hippie that gets drafted and Darren McGavin as his drill instructor. Thought it was great at the time, but I wonder how it would look now, over 30 years later.
