"A statesman gains little by the arbitrary exercise of ironclad authority upon all occasions that offer, for this wounds the just pride of his subordinates, and thus tends to undermine his strength. A little concession, now and then, where it can do no harm is the wiser policy." - MARK TWAIN

That is brilliant. Remind me who sang that. For some reason I don't remember much of High School.
A-HA! Thanks, Nedhead!
Strider, you made my day! First of all that was one of my favorite songs ('84/'85?) and video to begin with. Don't shoot me, but I don't watch The Family Guy (I just might have to now), so I'm not familiar with them. But when that guy started getting his groove on and kicking his feet, he was so damn cute and funny, I totally lost it. Absolutely hysterical. Then, when he fell through the eggs, oh the tears, just can't stop laughing!
Doug - shame on you for not knowing that was A-HA! But since you were probably in Germany at the time, I suppose I could forg...nope, sorry, there's no excuse!
I'm so disappointed in the new Family Guy episodes. Way too many stupid 80's references. That's all that show is now.
The old ones were much better.
All '80s references you say? I'm definately watching it now!
Give me a break, Sar, maybe if the pretty girls in school had paid me some mind I'd have been listening to that crap at dances instead of lurking under bridges with Pink Floyd and Van Morrison and non-medicinal marijuana. You're responsible by association, I'm certain.
Doug - Wow, with their busy concert schedules, how'd you manage to meet and hang with Pink Floyd & Van Morrison? Oh wait, the common denominator's non-medicinal!
awesome!
love Family Guy, but I have been missing a bunch as I have to watch 6 Feet Under on Sunday in HiDef.
Too hooked on that right now.
I downloaded that a while ago...
That was absolutely brilliant.
That song is a guilty pleasure.
)+(
family guy WAS better but the new ones are still good
a-ha is a great one hit wonder.
That was cute. I hate to admit it but I rarely watch televison and have only seen family guy due to a couple of friends having it on DVD. I have watched "Six Feet Under" when I get the time but Nate died and that is ending too so meh.
Don't know the song. ;{
"lurking under bridges with Pink Floyd"
That I could do.
Strider, I don't watch TV so I can't judge one episode from another. Sar tells me that it's you I should thank for posting the Twain photo, Thank You from Missouri. I have updated Gas Prices In Your Area and it doesn't look good. Hope you'll stop by.
God Bless America, God Save The Republic.
Family Guy is a fave of mine, and Stewie, well... any infant who refers to his mother's womb as "that ovarian bastille" is a God in my book!
Victory is Mine!
Mike - May I suggest you contact your local cable company and get their dvr package? You'll thank me later!
Gabe, the thought of you listening to A-HA is almost as funny as the video clip itself!
Oh Alice, you didn't know this song either?! That's 0 for 2 (since you hadn't heard of J Geils Band)! And you don't watch much tv?! Well, it's a damn good thing I already like you and know how super smart you really are! ;)
Shea - it's you! I knew one of us (besides Strider, obviously) was a big fan of the show and it was bugging me that I couldn't remember who it was.
*sigh of contentment*
I know, sar, I need to do that.
I know a couple people that have it now and love it.
It would mean that I'm watching too much TV and not reading enough, though.. :)
When my brother got TIVO I asked how we liked it. He looked at me gravely and held up three fingers and counted off "Fire, Pennicillin, TIVO"
I'll put TiVo ahead of Penicillin. Seriously.
Maine, that's because you're married.
Mike - it will change your life; follow the advice of your governor: you caan doooeeet!
Maine - I'm with you, pal. Give me TiVo or give me death!
Doug - See, I agree with Maine, so it has nothing to do with the fact that he's married. Oh wait.
