Sold it because you hated the thread, or depressed about the thread because you have no car? Just trying to figure out how much hipster snark I should be picking up on.

Add Screaming Trees and I'll drive for a while.

Yeah. And songs-for-Metro really lacks the open road romance…

Do you know how fast you were going?
—55-60 tops.
—SEVEN! You were going 7 miles an hour!

Pixies have some good stuff, but I can't bring the actual Surferosa CD along because I'll be distracted by the cover.

Oh yeah, Velvet Underground. Fun to wail out Sweet Jane with the windows down on a breezy interstate, but only if I'm alone in the car. (I sing badly…)

I can't recommend a specific song until I know what kind of car you're driving.
Great comment. It's like how Lush's Lovelife is a great song for driving the peppy VW on a crystal clear night, sunroof open to taste "the cool, desert wind" - as Doctor Thompson put it. Not so much in the cheerio-cruisin' Honda.

S'long as mbs are TWaits are at it: Bleed Like Me by Garbage.

Glad you put 'legitamate' in quotes.

He's seems to have played himself in everything from Swingers to Mr. and Mrs. Smith to Old School to Dodgeball… He's an entertaining guy, and I've really enjoyed him in some of the movies he's done. However, I can't think of the name of his characters - he's always Vince.

I liked Time on Earth quite a bit. Good pacing, relaxed sort of vibe, and captures the whole getting-older-and-facing-loss bit without brooding. Hard to do.

Flavawheel - the story's good, but I'm a skeptic. Broadcast as many watts as you want, your signal is only as good as the height of your antenna. The lower freqs (particularly of the amplitude modulated signals) are not as closely pinned to line-of-sight as FM or satellite stuff is, but the curvature of the earth…

Twogreat - You clearly are not from the DC area. You would be full of shit. All due respect to Dave Grohl, but it's pretty clear why he had to leave.

It would like like the end of Watchmen. Except tastier.

Sorry I'm late, but…two quick things, then back to mindless droning of work.
1. All of your big providers (the Kaiser, Bluecross, Aetna types) seem to be making roughly the margins, and employer "provided" plans will still cost families somewhere between $12-16K annually across the board. This tells me that any public…

Wait, so KB, you cook your eggs?

They've kept to a pretty steady 2-3 year break between albums for the last 18 YEARS! So they're slowing down a bit now that they're into their 40's, so I would totally agree - this is not a comeback. The collective attention spans of music listeners is just really short.

I thought the Ducky role ended his career. Glad to see he's not dead. (Needless to say, not a big TV watcher over here.)

Cameron Crowe
does have a way of packaging the rom-com in a way that I like. For instance, casting likable guys as leads (Campbell Scott, Cusak) and giving Stone Gossard and Jeff Ament lines. That said, didn't love J.Maguire, but it wasn't like sitting through an Aniston/Bullock vehicle.

In their show at the Rio, Penn would juggle broken bottles and fire a handgun at Teller. I'm not sure if we have technology to kill either of them.
