Also HDag, don't bother with The National. You will not like them or give them a chance.

I still see people adding to this thread, so now that I am off work, here is my $.02. First off, Rickster way up thread probably described what hearing REM in the early '80s was like. Not saying you cannot enjoy them if you did not live that, but to make HDag's argument for him, many people who grew up with REM are…

I really like both of those guys, so not having anyone to root against makes me not care to see a rematch. Penn is so used to being dominate, he seemed almost embarrassed to tears that he was handled so easily in the third. Some entertaining fights on what looked to be a crappy card.

I am with you, Big Fudge, Jon fucking Fitch, indeed. That said, Penn still amazes me. That guy is a freak of nature. Fitch so much bigger, yet Penn was controlling him easily early in the fight.

That the thing, Depp is playing HST. Have you seen footage of this man? That is how he acted. He lived with Thompson for a good period of time before the movie was made. I am not a huge Depp fan, but he, if anyone, could do Thompson. Depp apparently idolized him and he wore that Gonzo Family crest pin for years…

The Author's Notes in The Great Shark Hunt is one of my favorite things HST ever wrote.

Wow, a Jim White mention. Kudos.

Let's get rich, what?

The real crime* is Jennifer Lawrence will not win. She was outstanding and quite the looker herself.

Yeah, I vote for Just. Great video. Sorry SuperD, did not mean to piss on your points in this thread. I like some Matthew Sweet songs, so we can still be friends.

Just fucking around. I do see your actual point, though. Yes, I pay for some premium cable channels that do have commercials, but I see something like Hulu Plus as being akin to Netflix (especially if I pay for it) for being something I can watch on other devices besides my pc. If I am paying for a streaming…

Nope.

Between the bars is pretty great, as is Almeda, but it is still Say Yes, for me.

Perfect From Now On is one of my favorite records of any year. Just utterly brilliant.

Commercials on pay Hulu?
Does anyone pay for the Hulu plus? Are there still commercials? I was considering getting it but no fucking way will I subscribe to a service like that and suffer through commercials.

I actually owned the Leonard Cohen tribute album that I Can't Forget was on, pre-napster. Didn't have to steal that one.

God forbid a friend tried to download a song while you were waiting on yours.

Oh fucking Christ, those aol search logs may be the worst and best thing I have ever read. That shit is more frightening than any fiction.

Yeah, Warren, David Thorpe was the only one I cared to read on that site. His FashionSWAT stuff was pretty fun, too.

Exeunt
Great series, Mr Hyden. It has been a nice critical ride down nostalgia street.
