ONLY 100% SERIOUSLY. 110% SERIOUSLY IS NOT POSSIBLE. YOU CAN NEVER TAKE ANYTHING MORE THAN 100% SERIOUSLY!

LOL


Is this a Simpsons quote, or earlier, cause I heard it just yesterday in a Simpsons episode (one with the Power Plant workers turning into a Softball team)?

I think it's a Tommy Lasorda quote(or a variation of it)..Heard him say that often.

I have to admit, I'm so glad Harry recommended Scale the Summit to me. It's great instrumental technical metal that relies heavily on musicality too instead of just chops.

Honestly, that's just what I thought of at the time... yeah, it is similar to that Simpsons episode, but that wasn't what I was thinking of.

Funny I had pizza last night as well; a kid who was with us literally vanished. My two buddies spent an hour looking for him. I felt like I was in the coffee house from Seinfeld with my friends coming in and out of the pizza shop bringing attention to themselves. I didn't mind the alone time with a lady friend of mine. The old sport wasn't found when I left...very bizarre LOL
 
 
I would prefer a few cold beers and a cigar with that poker. Cigarettes aren't my cup of tea, they somehow aggravate me rather than calm me down. I do love me a good cigar

After my first listen, I'd have to say that's one of the best tech/instrumental metal albums I've ever heard. I should check out their debut eventually too.

It also makes me wish I could attend Prog Nation even more. Cry

The old, Velvet limit, was 1300-ish pages. I don't think it has become limitless now. Wink

My brain. Given I'm not a comic genius, it's probably been said before.

The only way to be original when everything has already been said is to strive to make the things you are rethinking even less interesting than the original.

Tobacco Smoke Enema (1750s-1810s)

The tobacco enema was used to infuse tobacco smoke into a patient's rectum for various medical purposes, primarily the resuscitation of drowning victims. A rectal tube inserted into the anus was connected to a fumigator and bellows that forced the smoke towards the rectum. The warmth of the smoke was thought to promote respiration, but doubts about the credibility of tobacco enemas led to the popular phrase "blow smoke up one's ass."


huh.
