  1. I saw Brokeback Mountain and liked it but it was also a bitter sweet film it touched my heart deeply with a sad ending sort of ("And I rarely care to see Cowboy Movies in general but this was the exception")BBM gets a very big thumbs up from me. ("4 1/2 stars")glad it got at least 4 Oscars to the film

     

    and in this case the Guys Herd Sheep instead of Cows.

     

    :spock::laugh::borg2::laugh:

     

     

    Wait...they herd Sheep? Doesn't that make them SHEPARDS, not COWBOYS?


  2. I dunnow...I mean, I don't suppose I could count Jimmy, Gary, Julie and The Sarge, right? And I do remember picking on Van Roy and Kor in the old lounge...I think for me this place is almost a continuation of the Old Lounge, but there are some new faces that are pretty damned awesome! AE, VBG, and the Mod Squad, you guys rock...


  3. "Caught up in the moment" Big and Rich.

     

     

     

    She was sittin at a bar in LAX

    Readin Cosmo "how to have good sex"

    When she saw him walking through the security check

    Well she gave him a wink, said

    "Come over here, hey hey good lookin

    Can I buy you a beer?"

    It's like Nelly said,

    "It's gettin hot in here"

    (I'm gonna take my clothes off)

     

    She said, "I'm headin out to Vegas

    On a 747 in 35 minutes down at gate 11

    If you wanna get lucky I'll take you to Heaven"

    He said, "I got a million dollar meeting up in NY City

    If I ain't there it'll be a cryin pity

    But somethin about you's too damn pretty"

     

    Chorus:

    Yeah, they got caught up in the moment

    Couldn't help themselves

    They got caught up in the moment

    Got wild as hell

    It was everything they wanted right then and there

    They got caught up in the moment, caught up, caught up

     

    At 20,000 feet on a Southwest flight she whispered to him,

    "We ain't got all night"

    So he reached up and turned off the overhead light

    And by the time they landed

    Sure enough it was more than lust, but less than love

    They were full-fledged members of the "you know what club"

     

    Chorus

     

    He was 10 grand up at a blackjack table

    She was dressed to the nines

    Drinkin fine Black Label he said,

    "I think I'm gonna cash out and buy you a diamond ring"

    So they headed down the strip to the wedding chapel

    In a stretch limousine that was candy apple

    Got married by a preacher man that looked just like the king

     

    Chorus

     


  4. "Arlington" by Trace Adkins. READ THE LYRICS, please. It will bring a tear to your eye...

     

    Arlington

    Written by Jeremy Spillman and Dave Turnbull

     

    I never thought that this is where I’d settle down

    I thought I’d die an old man back in my hometown

    They gave me this plot of land, me and some other men

    For a job well done

    They folded up a flag and told my mom and dad

    We're proud of your son

     

    Chorus:

    And I’m proud to be on this peaceful piece of property

    I'm on sacred ground and I’m in the best of company

    I'm thankful for those thankful for the things I’ve done

    I can rest in peace, I’m one of the chosen ones

    I made it to Arlington

     

    I remember Daddy brought me here when I was eight

    We searched all day to find out where my granddad lay

    And when we finally found that cross, he said,

    “Son, this is what it cost to keep us free”

    Now here I am, a thousand stones away from him

    He recognized me on the first day I came in

    And it gave me a chill when he clicked his heels

    And saluted me

     

    (Repeat Chorus)

     

    And every time I hear twenty-one guns

    I know they brought another hero home to us

     

    We're thankful for those thankful for the things we've done

    We can rest in peace, ’cause we are the chosen ones

    We made it to Arlington

    Yeah dust to dust, don't cry for us

    We made it to Arlington

     

     

    By the way, historical note to go with this song...

     

    "There's a big white house sits on a hill just up the road

    The man inside he cried the day they brought me home"

     

    These lines MOST LIKELY refere to the ghost of Confederate General Robert E. Lee. Lee owned the land that Arlington National Cemetary now rests upon at least until the Civil War.


  5. Dirty Old Man (Men). And I mean that with as much possible respect, Kor, but when you're old enough to be my father, and you talk dirty (or bite your tongue off in an effort not to) to someone my age, the label kinda fits.


  6. I think those kids aught to get a Medal. growing up, I knew alot of kids who's parents were in the Military (Neither of mine were), and I always wondered how they managed to deal with the constant moving, and the deployments and such. I suppose this is about as close to a Letter of Commendation as a Military Child can get, right?


  7. Few things can, but luckily for the little ships, those big monsters are extremely rare. I'm in the same sim as Jim, and I seem to recal the VRN having something like 2400 ships, so the odds that the Valderan ship you would run into would be a Conquerer class is like one in 800. You're more likely to run into either a smaller battleship class or a carrier than the Conquerer or one of her sister ships. Chances are, though, if you encountered a Valderan ship, it would be no bigger than a Cruiser (Something maybe the size of the Enterprise-E, possibly a bit larger, but not by much)
