Tom sounds awesome!
Re: “Turns Out the Music City Center Will Not Create Jobs for Goats”
You are very right Jim Collins! Goats don't vote Republican! But thanks to the efforts of ACORN, several hundred of them did vote for Nobama!

Awww TL. You're so sweet!

Because of this person's lunacy, I have banned this website from my computer. I'd rather deal with Spam.

Sedum and aloe are not in the same families. Sedum is in the Crassulaceae and aloe in the Xanthorrhoeaceae. Also, Aloe vera is a species, not a family.

At what point in time does modern art cease to be modern? Caveman critics must have grunted, "Whoa, dude, this is edgy!" at some of the wall creations of the era, but now these same renderings are considered quaint. There must be a time constraint - has to be. Someday the MCC will be considered 21st century baroque.
Re: “Kane for Senate? Kane for Senate”
Yes, please. We need sensible elected officials, not fascist theocrats who are owned by greedy corporations.
Re: “Kane for Senate? Kane for Senate”
Does this mean I should go ahead and declare I'm running "for real" this time? For real for real. Printed on the ballot.

Reclaimed or horizontal wood or is the new wood paneling. Lesley is right, 10-20 years it will look very dated, it already does.
Re: “If you sense getting married is a bad idea, don't forever hold your peace — speak now”
I finished reading it and still fail to see the point. Airing one's dirty laundry in public seems to be another mistake the writer has made.
Re: “The Weekly Open Thread Proposes a Moratorium on Reclaimed Barnwood”
I'm going to build a barn out of reclaimed reclaimed barnwood.
Re: “The Weekly Open Thread Proposes a Moratorium on Reclaimed Barnwood”
I've been to Humdingers in Brentwood a couple of times and I am really loving the extra hot peri peri sauce on the chicken. Anyone else found something they like there?
Re: “Music That Stings”
It was so great being one of those kids in Dayton.
I miss Iodine.

@accepiter: That's what she said.

Only a Yankee would think that y'all = rural. *grin*
Re: “Justice or Vandalism? You Make the Call”
accipiter: Totally GROSS......and terribly effective!
As far as BB's take on musicals, he is spot on! There hasn't been an entertaining musical since the Riverboat Blackface Minstrel Shows prior to the great rebellion, or so my good friends and cousins, zoombah and bobsweiner say! Given their universal respect and expertise I really must defer to their impeccable judgement.
Personally I would have dunked her Verizon version in her Gin and Metamucil, but that's just me!
Re: “Turns Out the Music City Center Will Not Create Jobs for Goats”
Considering that goats seldom vote Republican, there is severe doubt the GOPhers at the seat of power and terror will offer ANY assistance. Just more of the same from the Tennessee Klown Kongress and (oil) shell game Gubner Grinnin' Bill!

Looks like Husk will be a Gemini after all...

Re: “The Weekly Open Thread Proposes a Moratorium on Reclaimed Barnwood”
I wonder if, in 20-30 years, we'll all look back at the barnwood and think, "that's so dated. It's so 2010s." And if some rogue doesn't update it, will it be quaint and retro by 2050?
Re: “The Weekly Open Thread Proposes a Moratorium on Reclaimed Barnwood”
I hit up Humdingers last weekend, since it was one of the few places I could eat on my current diet. They gladly switched out the rice for another side, and the grilled sweet potatoes were huge and delicious. My rainbow trout was quite good, and my husband loved his amberjack. I couldn't try the piri-piri sauce, Ulika, because it had sugar in it unfortunately.
