true story: some late '80s Oscars and "Shakedown" is nominated. Segar didn't show so my dad asked me if I knew who was gonna perform in his place. I said I didn't know so my dad kept asking "who's the only person who could perfom in Bob Segar's place?" over and over with emphasis placed on different words even though I kept saying "I don't know" and then he finally said "wait and see". Anyhow, apparently Little Richard is the only person who can take Bob Segar's place.

Avatar arrives late in thread, posts way-out opinion, turning thread into violent tennis match between himself and thread alpha male / punky runt.
Other posters (now 'audience') jeer, yet lurk in stalls, intrigued.

When Avatar scores a point against alpha male / runt, hisses erupt from stalls. 'Leave off, he's not feeling himself today!' Avatar realises he has fatally failed to check phatic / grooming threads before weighing in.

Avatar, switching metaphors dangerously now, calls star witnesses to court; Shakespeare, Picasso, Chomsky and Lenny Bruce. 'Audience' pronounces Shakespeare, Picasso, Chomsky and Bruce cunts.

Thread continues for 536 more posts, 385 of which are from Avatar.

Avatar leaves message board for six months / minutes, or however long it takes for shagging and making pop records to seem less interesting than spinning out threads.

AND, Sorry Martin:

Admittedly, I quite like being insulted, admittedly. It keeps my interest intact. And is anyone else up for insulting? As Steve Gerber demonstrated in issues 113-121 of Daredevil, the dark veneer conceals a hideous underbelly. And is anyone else up for comparing me to Ross Kemp? Admittedly my features might be somewhat obscured today by the 543 Proper 4CD box sets which I bought at a rock bottom price in the HMV sale. I must alphabetise these and prioritise their listening order, with enough free time to enable me to reach the Glasshouse Stores by, oh I'd say, 5:47 pm.

Ah, Toots & The Maytals. Now you're talking, mate. But make sure you get the box set with the bonus disc of 28 rare original Kingston recordings.
Funnily enough, I was walking along Flood Lane last week, after a pretty decent pint of Young's Premium when it struck me - if only Steve Kember had slipped the ball to Alan Hudson in that 1972 League Cup Final against Stoke, instead of going for goal himself, then the result could have been quite different. Only blot on the 70s when you think about it. I tried to explain this to my neanderthal work colleagues over a stonking pint of Wethered's Bishop's Mitre, but the geezers just looked at me funny and went back to discussing strip bars and who's 'had' Jennie from Accounts. So I stuffed my copy of Spare Rib into the trusty ol' briefcase and made my excuses. The family weren't much more help. My eldest was more interested in the Blackburn-Tottenham game. God, I think I'd die if any of my kids became a Spurs supporter. But I knew the ILX massive would understand. Yeah, 'Monkey Man'. Totally fuckin' CLASSIC.

Listen, I did not post this in order to post a straw-man. I was wishing more Americans would have responded, in order to explain maybe why they felt certain sentiments of the poster's comments were valid, or why a lot of ordinary Aericans seem to feel that the Europeans are being ungrateful for not supporting America in this war. I saw other posts that disturbed me, such as those written by people claiming that their grandfathers died in WWII fighting for the sake of France, and therefore cannot believe that now the Europeans (the French in particular) will not repay the favor. Do such voices not have a point, at all ? Why should they be discredited? Also, isn't membership in NATO contingent upon the fact that "an attack on one nation, is an attack on all," ? Using this reasoning, some say that France et al are backing out of their pledge, and forgetting that 9/11 was an attack on America and that we are trying to pre-empt another one.
I was not trying to inflame rhetoric either way, please believe me.

First world leisure time is due, in large part, through the wreckless exploitation of the poor. We can drive our cars because we can afford oil that has made many stinking rich except the masses that populate those countries where it comes from. We can harvest our agricultural products at consumer friendly prices through the exploitation of third world "immigrants" (aka wetbacks, mojados, illegals....) who are paid little, have no benefits but are still making more than their brothers and sisters back home. We can import the rest of our agricultural and meat products; minerals; and other industrial items because of the same military/industrial/social complex...If we had to this all by ourselves when would we have time to watch our MTV? We've got time on our hands because we've forced the labor onto other countries while we settled into a service oriented work climate.

Martin, when the atheletes do speak out, they are accused of sexism (Reggie White for example). No one bothers to realize that some of them may be unconfortable with women in the locker room, of course not, the answer has to be sexism. This is why most do not speak out, they do not want to be falsely accused of anything.

It's odd that this is presented as some sort of issue for the athletes (have they complained at all?), but the equality issue that actually arose over this was among the reporters, when male reporters were being allowed in to the locker rooms (yes, male sports) and females weren't. My feeling is that the solution is to discontinue the whole practice. I don't see the benefit, as long as the athletes make themselves as available as usual.
