Yeah, let's forget all the resolutions Saddam has ignored and leave his fate up to a debate. Now THAT'S good foreign policy... If you actually give this story legitimacy then you're letting Saddam win the PR war, which is all it's about anyway. You believe he would do this debate given the opportunity? The only reason he brought it up was because he knew Bush would not accept, nor should he.

"Unce ... tice ... pwee tymes a madah..." "I be ukin pa nub in all da wong paces..." "???????????????" (which, after years of research I've determined was 'Betty Davis Eyes')

I never saw it as a "girl" show, I saw it as a stereotypical WB teenie bopper show (ex: Dawson's Creek) with a little Xena thrown in. I knew guys that watched it during season 1, well before I got into it, so it wasn't such a big deal in that regard. What got me into it? I had seen scattered episodes here and there - mostly in syndication. My dad was actually a regular watcher and that's what got me watching the FX reruns on a regular basis about a year and a half ago. Since then, I've seen every episode, have seasons 1-3 on DVD (as well as Angel season 1), have downloaded a good 30 or so Buffy / Angel eps, and have memorized a good portion of the collective history right down to random quotes. "I mock you with my monkey pants."

OMG ... speaking of which, tonight's FX rerun had Giles singing 'Freebird'! PURE GOLD!

No one wanted to see war happen. But it happened. Now it's up to us as to what to do about it. Do we sit on our hands and take what fate brings us or do we take some initiative and see to it that a second attack, which will no doubt be much more devestating than the first, doesn't happen?

I've always loved the skit with Mike Myers and Nicole Kidman (1993) where they're little kids. Myers is a hyperactive kid tied to a jungle gym by a harness. Myers: You're pretty. Kidman: I know. People tell me that all the time. "Oh, you're so pretty." Myers: You're concieted. ...People aren't going to support you as much when you get older, you know. Then she gives him a chocolate bar and he gets so wired that he starts running down the street, dragging the jungle gym behind.

Yeah, okay. I'll agree that a lot of people saw 9/11 as a way to make an easy buck by playing off the patriotic nature of Americans. However, there were plenty of people before that were patriotic and being patriotic in itself is not a bad thing. It doesn't mean you blindly follow your government, it means you understand the vast number of rights and priviledges you can enjoy in this country and not anywhere else. Sure, no country is perfect - but I'd much rather be here than any other country in the world. So what if people became uber patriotic after 9/11? Doesn't bother me any. Just take it with a grain of salt.

Can't forget Johnny Switchblade. ...I want one of those.

Land Shark 2002 "Candygram..." Tina Fey: "Candygram? We don't even have those anymore."

No... and I've seen every Buffy episode since the show was first started. EDIT: Do you mean the one with the mummified hand? I don't recall that either - but the mummy hand did rule. I loved the Monty Python 'Dead Parrot' tribute in there. "This hand is no more! It is a former mummy hand!"

Most Internet reports at the time attributed it to Golberg.

Partially that. With all the changes Buffy went through in Season 3 (looking to her future, college, etc), Angel had to go. They would never be happy together in the long-term - there would always be the fear of Angel becoming too happy and thus losing his soul ... or he would be holding her back from her making something of herself. Joss and David Greenwalt saw David Boreanaz as someone that could carry his own show and the character of Angel had a lot of untapped potential. They brought Cordelia along to draw in more Buffy fans, and the rest is history. Angel Season 1 included cameos from many former Buffy characters - Buffy, Oz, Spike, Wesley, and I suppose you could say Darla. It helped get the show off the ground and it's been good TV since.

7 left. I'm ready for the Dushku myself.

It's not that it's a sad episode and we should all love it because of that, it's just a fantastic piece of TV for the way it's written and shot. The scene where Buffy randomly pukes on the carpet after calling the ambulance. Going outside and hearing the windchimes and people having a good time and enjoying their lives while yours has just crashed and burned. You're trapped in your own personal hell that you wish was just a dream but you can't wake up. Anya's whole rant on death and how she doesn't understand it. That was perhaps her most vulnerable scene ever. Willow began the scene wanting to knock Anya out and at the end she just felt sorry for her. Buffy having to tell Dawn that her mom died, while all her classmates watch on. I'm trying to find a good copy on Kazaa but all the versions I've come across are crap.

Oh oh, I get to answer first! Darla made Angel a vamp. She sired him. She was also in Buffy Season 1 until he dusted her. Which means Wofram & Heart did a neat trick in bringing her back (haven't seen any of Angel Season 2 aside from the flashback ep that went along with Buffy's 'Fool for Love' so I can't give specifics). She's also Conner's mom.

I might have to go with the Wayne's World Madonna dream sequence circa 1991. Wayne: Truth or dare? Madonna: Dare. Wayne: I dare you ... to make out with me. Madonna: ...Okay. Wayne: (looks at camera) EXCELLENT! Meanwhile, Garth is stuck running away from all the weirdos in Madonna's banned 'Justify My Love' video (one of which he claims to be Prince).

The story there was that Barbara Olson locked herself in the bathroom and barricaded the door to make that call. I don't know of any other calls that came off of the plane that hit the Pentagon.

Sure, he could ignore Iraq for another 8 years. "Nope, I don't see any problems ... I'm a good president ... people like me ... can I grab your boobs?"

Can you elaborate on that?

Hey, if you wanna learn about going down on a woman, there's a folder for that. And it's a good idea to learn... All this talk is making me think ... Might have to add "I'd rather be performing cunnilingus on Mya Rudolph" to my sig.

Ah yes, can't forget the classics. Loved the Buffy ep where Xander had all the girls falling in love with him and Jenny made with the seducing. That was gold. As was Buffy making with the much more forceful seducing.

LOL I thought I might actually post something relevant to the thread. Fred Durst broke the rule. "I think I speak for everyone when I say this war should just go away." (paraphrased) Whatever, dude. Go find a guitarist.

Good for Bono, although I'm not sure what an endorsement from Bill Clinton is worth. Might be enough to pay for a candy bar.

If the stories about Mascaras' refusal to job or sell is any indication, I'd say he was supposed to eliminate himself - thus not give the rub to anyone else.

He hosted for the 5th time back in 89, I believe (probably promoting 'Big'). I remember they had a skit inducting Hanks into the 5-timers club and all the other 5-timers were there as well (Paul Simon, ...the guy from the M.A.S.H movie and Ross & Monica's dad on Friends ... forgot his name, a few others). It's notable because Conan O'Brien played the butler and Ralph Nader tried to get in but wasn't allowed.
