International I Hate Sports Club

But the Republicans are like Muslim terrorists. They hate music, and want to put people in prison for 5 years for streaming music and scenes from video games. Hello Fat Man! Sorry for the late reply... I'm by no means an expert on copyright law, but I was always under the impression that as long as...

The News of the World phone hacking scandal is pretty pathetic, but not really surprising, unfortunately, given what passes for "journalism" nowadays. At least in our local news here in Cleveland, "if it bleeds, it leads" has never been more true. I stopped watching most local ne...

I hope I_like_1981 returns one of these days.

He only has 19 more posts to go before he becomes a member of the 2000 Club.

In another month or so, I'll be the founding father of the 3000 Club.

Hey, I like the sound of that a lot better than the "700 Club"!

Good news! He's okay! That's great to hear! :) I now, though, have a vision of I_like_1981 appearing on the Carol Burnett show in a life raft, shouting "I'm OK! I"m OK!" :D (anyone who watched M*A*S*H* on TV during the Colonel Henry Blake era hopefully will understand...) :wink:

Well, it has been a whole month since I_like_1981 has posted anything here in our forums. His last visit was on Sunday, June 05, 2011 at 12:11 PM. I'm worried about him. I hope he's OK! I sent I_like_1981 a PM plus a standard email a few days ago (just a general note to say hello and that people mi...

Police officials now say they are â??very embarrassedâ? over the incident, adding that they are not sure if the gun was loaded, which means it probably was. "Not sure" if it was loaded?? Why would police be carrying around an unloaded gun if they thought they might have to use it? Beside...

You tell me ... :? Is it curtains for this forum and this website? Considering the very low level of activity (except, of course, for the ever-present [expletive deleted] spammers :x ) ... My guess is that people may just be involved in other things. I don't expect to be active on this forum foreve...

Ohio State Don't forget to say "THE Ohio State University"... :lol: My wife graduated from there all the way back (but not too far back, she'll be happy to remind you! :wink: ) in 1990. I also grew up in Lancaster, about 25 miles southeast of Columbus (didn't go to OSU though -- I went to...

Well, we had the book discussion on Monday the 20th about "Lone Survivor". Although there were many comments made, the consensus was that, like you, Earl, we respected the efforts of soldiers like Luttrell, both in the training required to get where they are and in the actual combat, but t...

A belated welcome from me also, SportsHater! (been a little busy lately so just got around to posting a greeting!)

Happy Birthday Stardust!

Hello everyone! As some of you may know, I belong to a Book Club for Men that meets once monthly. The selection for June's upcoming meeting is the book "Lone Survivor" by Marcus Luttrell, a former US Navy SEAL and, as the name implies, the lone survivor of Operation Redwing, a failed four-...

I always think I'm up on current music, but I end up not knowing many of the artists and songs at the Grammys, AMA's, etc. But my wife reminds me that I like "classic rock" -- IOW, I know and like the music that was "current" 20, 30, or 40 years ago...
