  1. Sure, but the point of the bill is to make it legal for every citizen of the state, not just those who go through the trouble of getting a card to use the medicinal dispensaries. And more to the point, just the introduction and consideration of this bill alone gives me a little hope that in the next 20 years it will be fully legal in more places than California.
  2. I own a Mac laptop, and I still laughed at every one of these iJokes. I think his STi became incompatable with his iPhone, seeing as how the i is in the totally wrong position. Probably caused some sort of reaction.
  3. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/02/23/BAO416354C.DTL&type=politics&tsp=1 As much as I would love to see this happen, I don't know if the country is ready to accept something like this just yet. I still believe that it will be legal before I become too old to care though .
  4. If you had searched this, you'd already have the answer.

    Attention whores also make multiple posts about how they hope they are banned, even though you can delete your membership with a few clicks. Ban yourself or just stop bitching, no one cares.
  6. If he changes his mind, I'll take the speakers. Been looking for something big to hook up to my stereo.
  7. Probably, but I still agree with him that a lot of today's rock music is worthless. I'm wondering if he's going to focus more on producing from now on or just taking a break from the music industry.
  8. I know there are some people on here that are into them: "Towards the beginning of my career in Nine Inch Nails, our biggest break came in the form of an invitation to perform a series of shows with Jane's Addiction. These performances essentially created and defined the term "alternative" rock in the US, created an ongoing festival franchise that is still thriving (Lollapalooza), set the stage for Nirvana to shift popular taste a few months later, and were really fucking FUN to play and attend - truly the best times I've had. The shows were epic. So epic, they propelled NIN to the "next level" (whatever that means), but caused Jane's to implode. The band broke up at the end of that tour. Fast forward to the present. Corporate rock STILL sucks. A friend tells me they saw the original Jane's lineup play a tiny show in LA that was unbelievable. I break out my Jane's records and am amazed by how vital they sound. These guys were the real deal and in this current climate mostly dominated by poseurs and pussies it was refreshing to hear something that sounded dangerous, volatile, beautiful and SINCERE. Emails were sent, phone calls were made, dinner was arranged, ideas were discussed and the next thing I know we're in the studio experimenting. We laugh, we get to know each other, we cry, we yell, we almost quit, we record LOTS of guitar solos, we discuss, we actually begin to all communicate, we yell some more, we become FRIENDS, we laugh again and we do some great things. I get to see first hand why they broke up all those years ago but I also get the chance to see four distinct personalities that become an INCREDIBLE band when they're in the same room. In NIN world, 2009 marks the 20th anniversary of our first releases. I've been thinking for some time now it's time to make NIN disappear for a while. Last year's "Lights in the Sky" tour was something I'm quite proud of and seems like the culmination of what I could pull off in terms of an elaborate production. It was also quite difficult to pull off technically and physically night after night and left us all a bit dazed. After some thought, we decided to book a last run of shows across the globe this year. The approach to these shows is quite different from last year - much more raw, spontaneous and less scripted. Fun for us and a different way for you to see us and wave goodbye. I reached out to Jane's to see if they'd want to join us across the US and we all felt it could be a great thing. Will it work? Will it resonate in the marketplace? Who knows. Are there big record label marketing dollars to convince you to attend? Nope. Does it feel right to us and does it seem like it will be fun for us and you? Yes it does. Look for tour dates soon and I hope to see you out there. Trent"
  9. Yea, because they are ditching the shit that they thought Americans wanted/would buy and are replacing it with the euro models that actually don't look like a vehicular abortion. But Ford is going to do the same thing they do with everything else, throw in 12,000 dollar rebates and watch their profit margin fly out the window. I'm sure this will be the case with the SHO when they find out no one wants a 43,000 dollar glorified econo-sedan.
  10. I blame Nickelback. Bands are still trying to be just like them, and therefore most new rock is still garbage. Half the time it's nearly impossible to tell any of these bands apart, they all sound the same and it isn't a good sound.
  11. "Many people paying for college would get a $2,500 tax credit for tuition and other education-related expenses, such as books and computers." That's a hefty little credit, keeping my fingers crossed. Also, if you are in college and the loans are in your name, but you are still claimed as a dependent by your parent, are you entitled to the $400? I filed as a single person but I am claimed by my parents so I don't know how that all works.
  12. Campus is more full of trash than usual. Found a large piece of carpet in my parking spot...
  13. I tried watching it once on A&E and couldn't take it. The profanity is just a necessary part of the show.
  14. If Iceman doesn't take it, I'm interested in the TV.
  15. http://holladaddy.com/monster2.gif The definition of sexy.
  16. "i want to tounge kiss your baby cousin" "what is wrong with u" "I have syphilis."
  17. You mean you meant to click Bavarian Machine Wheels?
  18. Got one a couple months ago but didn't answer the call, only found out what it was after I searched the number online. Haven't got one since.
  19. For the money they charge for their products, they should have no trouble affording him.
  20. I was supposed to do a project for tomorrow, now I can hold off until Monday. I still hadn't started it by the time the closing was announced.
  21. There is a god . J/K, but enjoy the day off anyways. I can't believe they really closed. http://www.osu.edu
  22. Took me 4 minutes to get to class today. Not having to drive and deal with the circus that is Columbus driving is really nice this time of year.
