TheWho said this:
She had hundreds of these little purple bags around her place

...and before I read any further, I was thinking "She must have been easy!"  And then I read this:

which she kept everything in, change, cosmetics, condoms

And I knew she was easy!

Gotta love those whiskey swilling wenches for an easy quickie!



Ha,Ha, true, 2 months into the relationship, I was standing in line at the packy and there were 2 guys in front of me with a bottle of ?Crown Royal? under their arm.  I put mine back and haven?t bought a bottle since.  But everytime I see one of those purple bags I remember her, she was beautiful??

A court has convicted a member of Kuwait's ruling family for drug trafficking and it condemned him to death, according to a ruling obtained Monday. ??.Sheik Talal had "willingly walked the path of evil" and "deserved no mercy," al-Mutawah said??..
??.The court said hashish and cocaine were found at his home, along with scales and a mixer used to prepare the drugs for sale???.
In addition to the death sentence, the court fined Sheik Talal $35,000 for drug trafficking.


Wonder what you get for a DUI.

funny how those memories persist.  Like every time Robert sees you post nonsense about a program and he becomes instantly enraged.  it never goes away.

Oh not enraged, just emphatic. This idiot makes up nonsense as a matter of habit and then insist others prove him wrong. Someone else makes mention of a fact and he demands irrefutable evidence and usually discounts it once it's been seen. I'm simply holding him to the same standards he holds others.

Provide the statement I have made which suggest this to be true.

My analogy would, yes, a majority of posters, here on Fornits use to suggest that doing nothing was the best course of action for kids who were in trouble.


Provide numbers and statements to prove this claim.

I heard someone, on Fornits, mention seeing information on ?Myspace? about some of the TBS.  I tried doing a search and came up with many kids who attended a TBS and also listed it as a school they attended in most cases.  It was hard to determine on most of them if it was a good experience or poor experience, but this may be a good source for collecting information about some of these places.  Maybe weed out the really poor ones or get an early read on which are getting worse or getting better.

Some things you just have to do yourself.....

Okay Cindy, I am getting tired of you not backing up your posts, you made these statements about the car analogy

Some of the schools have Facebook groups with over 100 members. Shows where all the kids are in school now- either college or post-TBS high school. Interesting to check out.

What is this?  Something the TBS's keep track of?

Facebook is like MySpace only mainly for college kids. It is now open to others, but it started as only for people with a school email address.  There are groups for each educational institution. You can only see someone's personal detail if they "friend" you. Otherwise, you just see their name and their friends.  You need to register to login to facebook.  Facebook was started by two Harvard kids and spread rapidly.  The kids are now multi-millionaires.

Ganja, I actually have to thank you, I had a cause and did what you said I was sent on a mission and picked up the Deluxe edition, sat back and enjoyed myself.  I grabbed the Quadrophenia CD also when I was out (haven?t opened it yet).  I skipped around a lot for the first hour.  I settled into ?My Generation? which was different than the original release as I remember.  It ran on for 16 minutes, similar to what I had heard in concert in ?73, they really let Townsend loose on this edition.  I caught ?Happy Jack? which I have not heard in years and ?smash the mirror? ? anyway
You're welcome. I was glad when you said you intended to take my advice and treat yourself to one of the best live recordings ever to find its way onto pressed vinyl or optical plastic, not to mention it was created by the group that bears your namesake.

Listen to disc 2 start to finish. They pretty much perform Tommy in its entirety (though the order's a little jumbled) in one amazing chunk. It's beyond classic rock; Live at Leeds is pure genius. I will have to listen to the LP again sometime soon for an in-depth comparison....  There is like twice as much material on those two CDs as there was on the original album release.... pretty amazing shit for 1970!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live_at_Leeds

Yo Ganja,  Yes the 70?s was an amazing time, I spent a good part of it going to college and chasing concerts up and down the east coast.  I practically lived in a van when I wasn?t in school, 1974 I took time off of school.  We caught "King Crimson" at the spectrum in, I think April that year, and traveled down to Florida with some friends to see "Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show - Tonic for the soul" (long story we knew a friend of a friend and had a blast back stage) They were mostly local (new Jersey) and were trying to break out and we went down to add support and decided to make a year of it, caught George Harrison at the Omni in Atlanta.  Saw a ton of groups on the way up the coast (Don?t expect you to know most of these groups it was way before your time I believe).  
The most unusual concert I was ever in was in Mobile.  We were passing thru Alabama (not sure if it was ?74 might have been ?73) We went to see the group Chicago (because we happened to be there, 5 rows from the stage) and the place was so restrictive, no smoking, no talking, people in uniforms walked up and down the isles to remind you to put out your cigarette or no talking (I don?t think anyone thought of smoking anything else).   Bright lights were on the audience the whole time.  All the kids had hair cuts and were dressed up for church and would clap at the end of each song (I think we were the only ones in jeans).  They ended up with something like ?Color my World? and afterwards said ?good night? and in unison shouted ?You suck Mobile!!? ,Ha,Ha,?. it was a very strange experience, very strange night.
Anyway, I am babbling (way too much information), sorry, but anyway thanks for the Who tip, Oh,  ?Tommy?s Holiday camp?  seemed different?  I know they credited Moon with the song but it was all Townshend on Banjo and I think he was on key board also?  Whats up with that do you know? Was this the original track?
So you saw King Crimson back then; I'll bet that was cool!

Who was in the band when you saw them?

What album were they touring on?

(Don?t expect you to know most of these groups it was way before your time I believe).
It's possible I've heard of some of them and may even be familiar with a few...

Was Spirit one of those bands?

Did you ever get into reading stuff by Lester Bangs?

Well if Townsend WAS on keyboard it wouldn't have been the only time, but I don't know. There's banjo in it? You must be referring to the studio version? Live at Leeds was all recorded live as far as I could tell...

I am in business, nothing very exciting and not associated with the teen help industry.  I am presently spending 6 months helping a friend get his business back on track, so my hours are sporadic

No idiot that was you. You made the statements now you back it up, or acknowledge you cannot. Just like in a court room the burden of proof is on the one who made the accusation.

So get on it.
