[11:09] <PartyCrew> thx...the cam is back up!

[11:09] <PartyCrew> for now

[11:10] cribbage changes topic to "Boston: The Definitive Classic Rock Sound. Listen to the record!!! 4http://www.boston.org"

[11:10] <cribbage> im getting a parking lot, looks like

[11:12] <Slurking> yep

[11:12] <Slurking> Todd, you missed the nightshirt pic

[11:13] <PartyCrew> a bunch of people took off to the RnR Hall of Fame

[11:13] <PartyCrew> we've got about ten left

[11:24] <cribbage> did someone save pics from last night?

[11:25] <Slurking> I wasn't around, so no.

[11:28] <PartyCrew> i'm tryin to figure out how to make this thing save pix locally

[11:29] <Slurking> Who is "I"?

[11:30] <PartyCrew> thid is Hub

[11:30] <PartyCrew> this even

[11:31] <cribbage> im just right clicking onthe browser image and doign a "save image as"

[11:32] <Slurking> Ah. Then, hub, there is a chance. If it were Becky at the keyboard...............;-)

[11:32] <Slurking> Me too, crib.

[11:33] <Slurking> And after the weekend, I'll "zip-em and ship-em"

[11:33] <PartyCrew> cooool

[11:34] <Slurking> lol - well, cool if I could be around more. :-)

[11:35] <Slurking> btw, how do you like your ovation? I'm thinking of buying one and I'm gathering facts.

[11:35] <PartyCrew> hehehehee....yep me too...when the drunks take over the keyboard it's hopeless

[11:35] <PartyCrew> love my ovation...i've had it for about 18 years

[11:37] <Slurking> Becky says it's a "single" hole (opposed to the leafy, multi-hole design). Correct?

[11:37] <PartyCrew> yep....acoustic only

[11:37] <PartyCrew> can't spell today

[11:38] <PartyCrew> i just got a new SG electric

[11:39] <Slurking> Oh yeah. How do you like that? I've been thinking about the Epi LP standard. Why did you go with the SG instead of the LP?

[11:39] <PartyCrew> $$$$$$$$

[11:40] <PartyCrew> they are real proud of the LP

[11:41] <cribbage> your head is cut off

[11:41] <PartyCrew> hehehehe.......no that's really how i am!

[11:42] <PartyCrew> cam's freakin out again

[11:43] <Slurking> Really? The Epi LP Std is $559 from Musicians friend.

[11:43] <Slurking> The SG style is about $100 less. I see

[11:43] <PartyCrew> wow...that's a good price

[11:44] <Slurking> Yeah, but you can't play 'em first. :-(

[11:44] <Slurking> They have a great return policy, but still...................

[11:45] <PartyCrew> i really spent more than i had anticipated for the SG but after i played it i wanted it

[11:45] <Slurking> lol - isn't that life?!?

[11:45] <PartyCrew> yep yep yep

[11:50] <Slurking> WHat's that?

[11:50] <Slurking> a b/w of the vollyball court?

[11:51] <PartyCrew> tents i think....the video is washing out

[11:51] <Slurking> Oh. I couldn't tell. lol

[11:52] <Slurking> I can't get the auto-refresh to work on the web-cam-page

[11:52] <PartyCrew> i'm gettin the bugs worked out now

[11:52] <PartyCrew> hmmmm

[11:52] <Slurking> Well, it seems to work once. After that it doesn't seem to

[11:53] <PartyCrew> that's odd

[11:53] <Slurking> Ah, this pic is much better

[11:53] <Slurking> color and EVERYTHING

[11:54] <PartyCrew> some people had trouble with the java applet so i changed it to straight html...refresh content

[11:54] <PartyCrew> maybe i should put the java page back out for the java capable

[11:54] <Slurking> Same address?

[11:55] <PartyCrew> let me see if i still have it

[11:55] <Slurking> Im at party/bostcam.html

[11:56] <PartyCrew> the java file is on my other puter...i'll put it out later

[11:56] <cribbage> heh.. ive been going to party/bostock.jpg and hitting refresh manually :)

[11:57] <PartyCrew> yikes

[11:58] <PartyCrew> 1295 hits on the counter

[11:58] <cribbage> does it get counted on a refresh?

[11:58] <PartyCrew> only after another address hits it

[11:59] <Slurking> Todd, shall we take turns?!?!? lol

[11:59] <PartyCrew> hehehehehe

[12:00] <Slurking> :-)

[12:00] <PartyCrew> had a heck of a time finding a counter that didn't limit the hits

[12:01] <PartyCrew> had two different ones set up then found out they limited you to 300 hits per month

[12:01] <cribbage> wow.. thats not right

[12:02] <cribbage> youve got 4 and a hlaf moths worth of hits then :)

[12:02] <Slurking> I still show the counter on 116

[12:02] <PartyCrew> lol

[12:02] <PartyCrew> 116?

[12:04] <Slurking> Yep.

[12:05] <Slurking> Unless I blow away my cache, it'll stay there too.

[12:05] <PartyCrew> hmmmm

[12:06] <cribbage> thats the problem i had with reloading pics, too.. i had to clear out my cache if i wanted a new pic

[12:07] <Slurking> WHat's the pic look like now? I have a half washed out pic of the tents

[12:07] <Slurking> It hasn't changed in about 3 refreshes (10 minutes)

[12:08] <PartyCrew> try it now

[12:08] <Slurking> same

[12:09] <Slurking> but if I go directly to the image and reload, then it's a new one

[12:09] <Slurking> nice van, btw

[12:10] <PartyCrew> that's becky's BostonMobile

[12:11] <cribbage> whats that written inthe back window?

[12:11] <Slurking> Yes, I've seen it.

[12:11] <Slurking> btw, do you remember meeting me last october?

[12:13] <PartyCrew> at scott's?

[12:13] <Slurking> Hope. At your house.

[12:13] <Slurking> I (and my two companians) stopped by for supper.

[12:13] <PartyCrew> oh yeah!

[12:14] Slurking watches as the light goes on.

[12:15] <PartyCrew> lol.....i gotta go do some work...bbl

[13:13] <gtokid> hey slurking

[13:13] <PartyCrew> This is Dan Martin from North Carolina. Who are you?

[13:14] <Slurking> Hi Dan.

[13:14] <Slurking> Hi Dan M

[13:14] <Slurking> I'm Joe. Met you at the Milwaukee show last year.

[13:14] <PartyCrew> I see. Was pretty wasted at that show.

[13:14] <Slurking> lol

[13:15] <Slurking> Yeah, you were in the beer garden when we met. :-)

[13:15] <PartyCrew> Spent a little too much time there I'm afraid.

[13:15] <Slurking> We were still waiting for our tix

[13:16] <Slurking> I ended up with backstage passes. :-) :-) The highlight of my year. :-)

[13:17] <Slurking> (well, that and the birth of my second son....LOL)

[13:17] <PartyCrew> You bum! I think I am the only person on the boston list who has not had the pleasure of backstage passes.

[13:17] <Slurking> Well, at the Milwaukee show, I was the ONLY member of the list to get backstage

[13:19] <PartyCrew> Just in case any of the band members show up here, I've brought stuff for them to sign, but, realisticly, I don't think any of them will come.

[13:19] <Slurking> one never knows. :-)

[15:30] Catti waves to all the Bostock partiers

[15:30] <Catti> Is Laura there too?

[15:30] PartyCrew is trying to get John in front of the webcam.

[15:30] Slurking cuts a wire off the toaster oven, strips the ends, plugs it in and waits for Jimmy's tongue......

[15:56] <Slurking> Whatever do you mean, Andy? I'm just sitting here at work getting A LOT done today. :-)

[15:56] <SkiUtah> Maybe

[15:56] <Catti> hahahahaha

[15:56] <SkiUtah> Once the snow hits--I don't leave CS

[15:56] <Catti> I have had lunch with Linda, she's really cool

[15:56] <SkiUtah> I met up with her at the Red Rocks concert!

[15:56] <Slurking> I owe Linda a beer.

[15:57] SkiUtah will take a beer---root in flavor please!

[15:57] <Slurking> A Wisconsin beer. :-)

[15:57] <Catti> hehe

[15:57] <Catti> I was there too Andy :)

[15:57] <PartyCrew> The best beer brewed in the states is brewed in Wisconsin (Milwaukee to be exact)

[15:58] <Catti> Oh yeah....

[15:58] <Slurking> Chippawa Falls, to be exact

[15:58] <Catti> well Unless you like Coors, which is brewed here

[15:58] <Slurking> Or Monroe

[15:58] <SkiUtah> nono--Salt Lake makes great Root Beer!!

[15:58] <Catti> mmmmm root beer

[15:58] <SkiUtah> Or Seattle and you can get Rainier

[15:59] <Slurking> Leinnenkugels or Augsburger.

[15:59] <SkiUtah> or Olympia WA, an get Olympia Beer

[15:59] <Catti> wow, what beer experts

[15:59] <Slurking> Point, Huber, Reinlander

[15:59] <Slurking> Lots of Wisco beers

[15:59] <SkiUtah> Did you see my message to you Catti?

[15:59] <Catti> what message?

[16:00] <Slurking> Then there's the new pub/brewery in Madison, downtown.

[16:00] <Slurking> Near King street <wink> <wink>

[16:00] <SkiUtah> I sent you a private message in chat

[16:00] <Catti> no, didn't get it

[16:00] <PartyCrew> Wisconsin, the land of beer, brats, and cheese :-)

[16:01] <Slurking> mmmmmm on all three

[16:01] <Slurking> Gosh, how I miss the motherland........

[16:01] <Slurking> Dan, how long did you live in Wisconsin?

[16:02] <Slurking> Dan, from Keil

[16:03] <PartyCrew> I lived in WI for 1 year.

[16:03] <SkiUtah> I must go back to work everyone :(

[16:03] <PartyCrew> Toured the Miller Brewing Company in Milwaukee. What an awesome place.

[16:04] <Slurking> Bye Andy

[16:04] <PartyCrew> That sux. I got today and Monday off from work :-)

[16:04] <Slurking> Hmmm, never been there. :-(

[16:05] <PartyCrew> We have some real Wisconsin cheese here. Damn good stuff.

[16:05] <Catti> mmmm

[16:05] SkiUtah workes Mon-Fri

[16:05] <SkiUtah> 9am to 7pm

[16:05] SkiUtah likes Squeaky Cheese

[16:06] <PartyCrew> You must mean cheese curds.

[16:06] <SkiUtah> Squeaky Cheese--aka---Cheese Curd

[16:06] <PartyCrew> I never had cheese curds until I lived in Wisconsin.

[16:06] <PartyCrew> 'Course, I had never seen a brat fry until living there too.

[16:06] <SkiUtah> No Cheese Curd

[16:07] <SkiUtah> Wisconsin sounds like a wierd place :)

[16:07] <Slurking> mmmmm, squeaky cheese curds...mmmmmmmm

[16:08] PartyCrew (Dan) probably would have stayed in Wisconsin if it wasn't for the terrible winter weather.

[16:08] <Slurking> mmmm brats onthe grill mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[16:08] <Slurking> reminds me of tailgating at Lambeau....blue haze over the entire parking lot....heh heh

[16:08] PartyCrew (Dan) likes the climate in North Carolina much better.

[16:08] <Slurking> Yeah, the winters suck

[16:08] <Slurking> I imagine.....:-)

[16:09] <SkiUtah> Winter in general suck

[16:09] <PartyCrew> Winter in NC isn't too bad down around Charlotte. It's a major event if it snows.

[16:09] <Slurking> We don't have it too bad here (an hour south of the Wisc. border)

[16:09] djd25 [~java@host115.panola.net] has joined #boston.org

[16:09] <Slurking> We get a couple feet all winter. Perhaps had to shovel 6 times this past winter

[16:10] djd25 [~java@host115.panola.net] has quit IRC (Quit: djd25)

[16:10] <SkiUtah> Damn we had a grand total of 225 feet this year

[16:10] <PartyCrew> It's funny when the weather does get bad in Charlotte. Everybody wrecks because they don't know how to drive in it. And of course no one has a 4-wheel-drive or winter tires.

[16:11] <SkiUtah> Stupid october and april storms

[16:12] <Catti> oooo purdy car

[16:12] <Catti> we have a car now... we could drive out there

[16:12] <Catti> hehe

[16:13] <PartyCrew> My next vehicle will be either a truck or a sport utility vehicle (4-wheel-drive of course)

[16:13] <PartyCrew> I can't understand why anybody would get a 2-wheel-drive truck, what's the point in getting a truck if it's not 4WD.

[16:14] <PartyCrew> 'Course there is no point in getting a truck with an automatic transmission IMHO

[16:15] <Catti> we just bought a 1998 Toyota Camry

[16:15] <SkiUtah> I say next year we set up real audio/video and have real time video over the net!!! yea right I can imagine the cost

[16:15] <Catti> no kidding

[16:15] <Catti> wow

[16:15] <PartyCrew> Now why did ya go out and get a damn Jap car for?

[16:15] Catti ducks

[16:16] <SkiUtah> Auto Trannies kick butT!!!

[16:16] PartyCrew (Dan) likes Fords and Chevys.

[16:16] <Catti> well, my Hubby kinda works for Toyota

[16:16] <Catti> and it was a great deal

[16:16] <SkiUtah> outta here cya!!!

[16:16] SkiUtah [skiutah@z236.codenet.net] has quit IRC (Quit: Out of all the things I miss, it's my connection that I miss the most!!--YEA MY HIGHER POWER!!!)

[16:16] PartyCrew (Dan) wouldn't hit a dog in the ass with an automatic transmission vehice.

[16:17] <Catti> our car is a stick

[16:18] <PartyCrew> Well, at least it has one good point.

[16:18] <Catti> and it's green!

[16:18] <Catti> hehe :)

[16:18] <PartyCrew> Automatics are for people who are too lazy to shift gears

[16:18] <Catti> and people like me who do not know how to drive a stick

[16:19] Catti awaits the berading

[16:19] <PartyCrew> Automatics use more gas, require more maintenance, and add about $1000 to the price of a car.

[16:19] <Catti> yep... all true

[16:19] <PartyCrew> Not to mention, automatics don't have as much power as sticks with the same engine.

[16:20] <Catti> no arguement here

[16:20] <Catti> :)

[16:21] <PartyCrew> For example, I had a 1989 Cavalier Z24 and it was auto. The best I could get out of it was 23 miles to the gallon with a 2.8 liter engine. The car I have now is a 1992 Cavalier Z24 and it's a 5-speed stick and gets 30 miles to the gallon with a 3.1 liter engine.

[16:21] <PartyCrew> So I got a bigger engine and better gas mileage by getting a stick.

[16:21] Cosmo- [jbsd@roc-il6-32.ix.netcom.com] has joined #boston.org

[16:21] <Catti> whoa.... too much car talk for me :) hahahahaha

[16:21] <Slurking> I have an '89 Cavalier RS...I still get about 35mpg (5 speed)

[16:22] <Slurking> with 113,000 miles

[16:22] <Catti> cool, we had a 91 Cavalier

[16:22] <PartyCrew> And if you had the damnable automatic, Slurking, you would probably get less than 30 MPG..

[16:22] <Catti> 5 speed

[16:22] <PartyCrew> Catti, was it the Z24 model or the base model?

[16:23] <Catti> ummmmm

[16:23] <Catti> it was red

[16:23] <Catti> hehe

[16:23] PartyCrew (Dan) thinks Catti doesn't know much about cars.

[16:23] <PartyCrew> hehehe

[16:23] ChanServ sets mode: +o Cosmo-

[16:23] Catti thinks Dan is correct

[16:24] <PartyCrew> Well, let me ask you this. Did it have an emblem on the side that read "Z24"?

[16:24] <Slurking> I have the base model with the Z24 everything except the v-6 and the emblem

[16:24] <Catti> I don't think so

[16:25] <PartyCrew> The V-6 engine is necessary to be a Z24. At least that was true until 1996.

[16:25] <Slurking> 14" wheels, sun roof, tach......Oh yes. and what's with automatics having a tach and manual not?!?!?!?!?!?

[16:25] <Slurking> Yeah, I had the RS, not the Z24

[16:26] <Slurking> but the instrument panel was the Z24.

[16:26] <Slurking> Love the padded steering wheel. :-)

[16:27] <PartyCrew> A tach is a necessity with a manual transmission IMHO

[16:28] <PartyCrew> A tach with an auto transmission is dumb. What's the point? The transmission does all the shifting anyway.

[16:28] <Slurking> I agree, Dan, but the dealers say that the "auto trans" and the "tach" are both "improvements". So, the stripped down cars (cheap) will have the stick and no tach. HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[16:28] Catti [someone@hdsl27.dnvr.uswest.net] has quit IRC (Connection reset by peer)

[16:28] <Slurking> And the "loaded" cars will have the auto trans. and a tach. HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[16:28] <Cosmo-> A tach can be useful... even with an automatic transmission

[16:28] <PartyCrew> Most people probably don't even know what the tach is for anyway.

[16:29] <PartyCrew> Us gearheads, though, like the tach.

[16:29] <Slurking> Unless you go for the "sport" model. Then you get the 5 speed and a tach.

[16:29] <Slurking> heh heh

[16:29] <Slurking> Like, nothing. NEED!!!

[16:29] Catti [someone@hdsl27.dnvr.uswest.net] has joined #boston.org

[16:29] ChanServ sets mode: +o Catti

[16:29] <Cosmo-> I used to drive an automatic with a tach... I liked be able to see what my engine was doing

[16:29] <Slurking> I have a 69 firebird that doesn't have a tach and I really miss it

[16:29] <Catti> ack

[16:30] <Slurking> I could install one, but it goes on the hood, outside the car

[16:30] <Slurking> Perhaps someday.......

[16:30] <PartyCrew> You can get tachs that go on the dash.

[16:30] <Slurking> Yeah cos, my wife's camry has a tach.

[16:30] <Slurking> True Dan, but then it wouldn't be "original"

[16:30] <PartyCrew> I had a 1970 Chevy Nova that didn't have a tach until I put one in it.

[16:31] <Slurking> The tach on the 69 firebird (and it's kissin' cousin the camaro) had the tach on the hood

[16:31] <PartyCrew> I really miss that car. Had the 307 V-8, Muncie 4-Speed tranny, dual exhaust with glasspacks. Man, that thing would run!

[16:32] <PartyCrew> Then young dumbass me wrecked it when I got into a race with a mustang.

[16:32] <Slurking> heh heh ....yeah I miss the 350 v-8

[16:33] <Catti> did someone beat up the webcam?

[16:33] <Slurking> lol catti

[16:33] <PartyCrew> Nothing runs like a V8, Nothing sounds like a V8, nothing satisfies the driver like a V8.

[16:33] <PartyCrew> As us gearheads say, there's no replacement for displacement.

[16:33] <Slurking> except, perhaps a v-10 or v-12

[16:33] <Slurking> ...but then there is that price thing...... :-)

[16:34] <Catti> ok, who threw Becky into the cam?

[16:34] <PartyCrew> That cam sux.

[16:34] <Slurking> A Jag is a BIT out of my price range. lol

[16:34] <PartyCrew> Hub is going to try to hook up a camcorder and see if that works any better.

[16:34] <Slurking> streaming video..whoohooooo!!!!!!

[16:34] <Catti> well, it's as close as I get to you guys, so don't take it down

[16:34] <Slurking> yeah, don't take it down

[16:35] <Slurking> Well, for at least a half hour when I go home. :-)

[16:35] <Catti> oooo, video would be too cool

[16:35] <PartyCrew> It's not going away, just getting replaced.

[16:35] <ProjectZero> we talking about urban assalt vehicles? :-)

[16:35] <Catti> :)

[16:35] <PartyCrew> No, ProjectZero, just vehicles in general.

[16:35] PartyCrew (Dan) is very opinionated when it comes to vehicles.

[16:35] <Catti> red ones and green ones :)

[16:36] <ProjectZero> ahhh....I was going to throw my 5 pennies in....

[16:36] Catti noticed :)

[16:36] <Catti> hehehehe

[16:36] Slurking picks up the 5 pennies

[16:36] Cosmo- [jbsd@roc-il6-32.ix.netcom.com] has left #boston.org

[16:36] <ProjectZero> here in "trendy" California, it's laughable seeing folks spending the $$$ for 4WD and SUVs to just haul the kids to their soccer games....

[16:36] <Catti> you can buy gum with that Joe

[16:37] <Slurking> nope. Put it in my "penny jug"

[16:37] <Slurking> It's a gallon apple cider jug that will hold about $50.00

[16:37] <Slurking> I have about $40.00 right now. :-)

[16:37] <Catti> cool

[16:37] <Catti> :)

[16:37] <PartyCrew> Yeah, you're right ProjectZero, most people who buy sport utility vehicles don't use them for what they were originally meant for.

[16:37] <Slurking> Soon, I'll have to get a bigger/another jug

[16:38] <Slurking> What do you mean "originally meant for". They are meant for yuppies and soccer practice

[16:38] <Slurking> Anyone that Needs the features of a SUV will get a 'real" truck. :-)

[16:38] <Catti> hahahahaha, we want one to go up in the mountains with

[16:38] <Catti> going up there in a Toyota Camry is hell on the car

[16:39] <PartyCrew> Sport Utility Vehicles were meant to be driven off road.

[16:39] <ProjectZero> Just drive by an elementary school around here and it's like the blind leading the blind (urban assault vehicle drivers trying to drive their beasts around the city streets)

[16:39] PartyCrew (Dan) hates Jap cars.

[16:39] <Slurking> nice pic there. contrast sucks though..lol

[16:40] <Catti> sorry.... :(

[16:40] <Slurking> Jap cars? Nowadays they are 90% made in USA

[16:40] <Slurking> Only the profits go overseas. lol

[16:40] <PartyCrew> Seems as though you can't buy anything anymore that isn't "Made in Japan"

[16:41] <Slurking> It's hard to do

[16:41] <Slurking> Just look what you are typing on.

[16:41] <PartyCrew> No shit.

[16:41] <Slurking> Oops, my Compaq keyboard is "made in Thailand". My mistake

[16:41] <Slurking> :-)

[16:42] <ProjectZero> My computer, my modem, shoot-- my office carpet is probably made somewhere else

[16:42] <Catti> ours was mage in mexico

[16:42] <Catti> made even

[16:42] <PartyCrew> Here's what gets me. Look at Mitsubishi. Ever noticed that their symbol looks like an airplane propeller? That's because they made Japanese Zeros during WWII. They go from trying to kill us to selling us cars.

[16:42] <ProjectZero> This "Made in America" can get ridiculous...I think some of the fruit I eat aren't from around here.

[16:42] <Slurking> NAFTA at work. :-)

[16:43] <PartyCrew> Yep, Slurking, that "Giant Sucking Sound" as Ross Perot put it.

[16:43] <Slurking> lol

[16:43] Slurking is now known as Slurping

[16:43] <cribbage> and i thought that was just the portland trailblazers

[16:45] <ProjectZero> The webcam pix looks like a bunch of muggers in the shadows :-)

[16:46] Slurping is now known as Spaceman_Spiff

[16:46] <Spaceman_Spiff> lol PZ, it does

[16:47] <cribbage> bunch of folsk on dateline who dont want their identities known

[16:47] <ProjectZero> I probably offended muggers <grin>

[16:47] <Catti> lol

[16:47] <Spaceman_Spiff> lol - I smell a lawsuit. -)

[16:48] <PartyCrew> Yep, seems like if you look at somebody funny nowadays they sue you.

[16:48] <ProjectZero> In L.A., they'll shoot you.....

[16:49] <Catti> yep

[16:49] <Spaceman_Spiff> yeah, and if you don't look, you'll get sued for being rude

[16:49] <ProjectZero> And then the Johnnie Cochrane-wannabes and Jerry Springer types will want to represent you....

[16:50] <ProjectZero> The sad thing is-- there's a lot more folks who'll want to get in to the business with the Cochrane/Springer types.

[16:50] <PartyCrew> I think they should outlaw attorneys advertising on TV.

[16:50] <Spaceman_Spiff> They used to

[16:51] <Spaceman_Spiff> Only advertising allowed was yellow pages.

[16:51] <Spaceman_Spiff> That changed about 10 years ago

[16:51] <Spaceman_Spiff> Both my parents are lawyers

[16:52] <Spaceman_Spiff> Family issues: divorce, estates, etc. NO PI CASES!!!!

[16:52] <PartyCrew> Lawyers charge too damn much, just like doctors. But they know they got you by the balls because their services are a necessity.

[16:52] <ProjectZero> I have one of those DSS satellite dishes and those daytime trailer-trash talk shows aren't on any of the channels-- the most idiotic thing I read on a dss newsgroup was someone complaining that he can't watch Springer on DSS (I don't want to pay for that crap)

[16:53] ProjectZero envisions the caption for the webcam pix: "I had to go underground because I thought Sib's fro was cool!"

[16:54] <Catti> hahahahahahaha

[16:54] <Catti> IT WAS!!!!

[16:55] ProjectZero envisions an alternative caption: "I was constantly ridiculed because I thought Barry played the lead guitar tracks"

[16:55] <Catti> ack!

[16:56] <PartyCrew> Well, it's Miller Time. Gotta go find the beer stash.

[16:56] <Spaceman_Spiff> See you Dan

[16:56] <Catti> hehe

[16:56] <Spaceman_Spiff> Take care

[16:56] <Catti> bye Dan
