The Czech Republic

"Dream On" has always been a well-known song garnering airplay on rock stations...I don't believe it has anything to do with Eminem.

I'm into everything down there but Steely Dan. Also: "Fire On High" is awesome.

US Open Update: Roddick is the champion.

This is a national game?? Uh oh. I was hoping only the Bay Area and Chicago would have to see this abomination.

Diagonal is in, man. Check out Raw and Smackdown. US Opn Update: Roddick's up two sets. Oh well.

Well, watching this Bears game...at least the new Fox graphics are pretty?

I voted for Dokken because I was afraid to vote for Def Leppard.

Pink Floyd had three albums in the MTV era. Just saying. Here's 22 top bands: 1: Pink Floyd 2: The Beatles 3: Led Zeppelin 4: The Who 5: The Rolling Stones 6: The Clash 7: Jethro Tull 8: The Police 9: Metallica 10: Van Halen 11: Aerosmith 12: Pearl Jam 13: Chicago 14: The Jimi Hendrix Experience 15: Nirvana 16: Electric Light Orchestra 17: The Kinks 18: Wings 19: Dave Matthews Band 20: Cheap Trick 21: Guns n Roses 22: Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young Are those my opinions? Not completely. Is that the order they should be in? Doubtably. But is it a better list of 22 bands than MTV's? Clearly.

Royal Rumble SLIGHTLY beats War Games...slightly...but there are only 4 worthwhile Games, while at least EVERY RUMBLE save for 1996 had something memorable... Don't forget 1999, which forever bastardized The Match That Patterson Built. Let's rank the gimmicks: Tied for 1: Royal Rumble (Patterson) and War Games (Rhodes)' 3: Ladder Match (Hart?) 4: Survivor Series (Patterson?) Continue or revise at will

Were you that troll that posted here for awhile? Dutha Rose. No, I was Jimm Ross. I sent people, places, things, and concepts to OVW. I just remembered Dutha Rose so I used that.

Other facts: created by Dutha Rose, and is generally regarded alongside the Royal Rumble as the best gimmick match. I really need to get a hold of Wrestlewar 92 to see the one with Austin and the rest of the Dangerous Alliance, I've seen others, but apparently that's the ebst one.

MusicMatch Jukebox, just highlight in the playlist with right-click and "edit track tag." Only thing I don't like about it is it changes the modify date, so I forgot when I downloaded it. Sentimentality?

Go Ferrero! I hate Roddick and most of the Young Americans (Dent, Ginepri, Fish, and espeically Blake) for being overhyped. Granted, Roddick's lived up to it, and at least he's stopped wearing his hat backwards. Whatever. I guess I don't hate Andy Roddick after all. But James Blake, oh boy.

War Games would've been great around Wrestlemania: Angle, Haas, Benjamin, Big Show, A-Train vs. Lesnar, Eddie, Chavo, Benoit, Rhyno

Phish is a stoner band that plays long drawn-out crappy jams, while people stand in fields doing drugs and calling the music "genius." Think Grateful Dead but worse.

If I was a wrestler in charge of designing my own merchandise, I'd keep my name off of it and just keep the itneresting artwork/text so as not to associate the poor wearer with sports-entertainment.

My speakers have been built into the monitor on my old and new ones. Okay, so it sort of works now. Before, I had a cord running from "Speaker out" in the back of the box, and that cord split into left and right cords on the old monitor. On the new one, there's just an "Audio In" that doesn't split. So I stuck the two left-right cords in a merger adapter dealy, and put that in the back of the monitor, and the right channel was still out. So I plugged the headphones in the back Speaker Out plug, and now I have full sound. So it must be that cord that was connected my speakers to the CPU.

My old monitor was dying, and one of the problems was the right speaker plug in the back wasn't working, so all I was getting was the left channel which bled into the right speaker a bit. I just replaced my monitor today, and the problem is still here. I went ot listen to The Wall, and on the first track, all I can hear is "We came in" and not the violin in the background. It's really distracting and I can't figure out what's broken.

Traditional MSG entrance, of course. As I understand with the shape and way the entrances are set up, a large stage such as Raw's blocks out half the available seating. So to maximize ticket sales, it'll be back to the good old exit sign for this year.

Cool! Now I can wear Rey Mysterio Jr.'s mask. That way, I can always have a mask on. Yeah.

I just don't want any more Undertaker at all.

No, UT is not stale now that he's experimenting with his in-ring style and doing a different style of promos. Is that a good thing? Here's your typical Undertaker promo: This is my yard. And I'm the big dog. When you're the big dog, you own the yard. And when the big dog says get outta my yard, you have to respect that. Go pay your dues. I'm not feelin' it. I make the rules. You wanna know why? Because this is my yard. And I'm the big dog. When you're the big dog, you own the yard. And when the big dog says get outta my yard, you have to respect that. Go pay your dues. I'm not feelin' it. I make the rules. You wanna know why? Because this is my yard. And I'm the big dog. When you're the big dog, you own the yard. And when the big dog says get outta my yard, you have to respect that. Go pay your dues. I'm not feelin' it. I make the rules. I'm Taker care of business. Big Evil. Don't mess my ride.

The Devils, Nets, and now the Braves? Bob Barron sucks at liking teams.
