Probably around the same time Hanson last “heard” a clap. So, 20 years ago? ;)

I don’t think you left anything out. :)

Why would I mention something as far off topic as that? I dont know what you think is happening but if you’re an American Trump actually IS your leader, whethat you want to accept it or not. Nitwits like you are tearing the country apart but you’re too ignorant to realize it. I didn’t vote for Trump but I’m not stupid…

You were in the Navy and you blamed the president for 2 ships colliding off the coast of Japan, and then get snotty when I call you a dipshit? Did you blame President Obama when a Navy ship ran into the memorial at the USS Arizona in 2015? Or Bill Clinton when the USS Denver and the USNS Yukon crashed into EACH OTHER…

Your logic is....baffling? Would you demand that Amazon fire Jeff Bezos because one of your packages was damaged in transit? You are a moron. The facts will come out and I’m fairly certain none of the blame will be on Trump, Obama, Bush, or Clinton. I’d wager the commander of this vessel started his career under one…

What type of painting do you normally do with that gigantic brush of yours? The ENTIRE Navy is incompetent? Every single person? You must be a joy to be around.

You spent decades in the Navy and you didn’t see the gigantic steel bulb on the merchant ship in any of the photos? I spent exactly zero minutes in the Navy and the first thing I said to my wife when we saw this on TV was “Damn, the Navy boat probably has a big smashie just under the waterline from that bulb.” Smashie…

Is that why to needle you they tell you to put their groceries in the high density polyethylene bags instead of the pulp based ones? ;)

After a few raids they actually put the sign on a 20' pole. I think it’s back to normal now. Just Google image Dio Way and you’ll see the tall one.

I would say if you need a fork lift to move 51% of them it’s a junkyard. Sound good? I’m open to adjustment if anyone has a better formula.

My daughter turned me on to a band called Rise to Remain. Bruce’s son is the lead singer. I saw Maiden in LA and Steve Harris’s daughter’s band opened for them. I’m getting old, I first saw them in 1981. The evolution of the band has been amazing. My 53rd show is in Phoenix in 2 weeks. I might have a problem. :)

I’ve seen Maiden 52 times since my first show on July 17th, 1981. Hallowed be they Name has been played at every show since 1984. It never gets old to me. Any of it.

I was at the pharmacy and my phone rang. The pharmacist, who knows me, hears the song(the intro to Where Eagles Dare) and asks if I’m going to see Maiden at the end of the month. He’s my daughter’s age, 26. I say yes, and both my daughter’s are going too. My 53rd time seeing them, their 6th.

I’m 51 and in 2 weeks I’ll be at my 53rd Iron Maiden concert. And somewhere I have a street sign I stole in Cortland NY. The name of the street is Dio Way. Named after a small man with large lungs who grew up on the street. My daughter’s and I got to meet Dio at a Maiden concert in LA. He was there with Lars Ulrich…

I never played soccer, but if some punk stuck me with a needle the referee would have no trouble finding the needle as he would be searching an unconscious player. I played QB in high school and our trainer put would put Vaseline on my jersey above my shoulder pads to prevent defenders from getting a good grip, but…

The irony is that these multimillionaire 1%ers are exactly the demographic most likely to benefit from Trumps policies.

From what I understand he was not required to register in Oregon at all, ever. So by registering his first year he actually raised a flag that should never have been raised, and by not registering in subsequent years the authorities asked the question. Apparently he is not being punished for not registering because he…

Brittany Griner and Ray Rice ARE inspirations to some, I guess...

Really really happy for Cody and his old man, Clay. You know you’re getting old when a major league player is the son of a guy who struck you out in a high school game. 

The alternates know that they may or may not play. That might be why that are called alternates.  They will prepare as if they are playing, and to prove my point all you need to do is read the comment by Roberto Diaz, the 1st alternate. It shiuldnt be too hard to find, since it’s in the article. He said he will be…
