My new signature...forevereagle gets a repreve

Dookie is a very close second for me, but still had to go with American Idiot. I guess its because they matured as I matured. My favorite on Dookie was She. Quoner, I would have pegged you as a Longview kind-of-guy.

Now my list doesn't look so bad...thanks!

I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree...but that still doesn't take away from the fact you are wrong.

My wife and I will be having a 2 person watching party at the BWW in Longmont, CO.

OK...I'm going away from the indie/underground music that has been dominating the discussion thus far. My list has alot more commercially popular albums, although I haven't kept up with the music scene much the last few years, so most of these are favorites from the last 3 years of college. In no particular order: Eve 6 - Horroscope: My girlfriend (now wife) turned me on to this album. Never been a huge Eve 6 fan, but the way this album was produced made me want to listen to it over and over. Weezer - Maladroit: This is the album that really made me a Weezer fan. The Blue Album was good, I somehow skipped over Pinkerton (although I know this is most people's favorite Weezer album), but the guitar sound on this album had so much "balls" behind it. Green Day - American Idiot: Their best album to date. Guster - Lost and Gone Forever: From 1999, but close enough. My roomate listened to this album alot and it kind of soaked in and I became a Guster fan because of it. Jack Johnson - Brushfire Fairytales: I love this album because it was so fresh and different when it came out in 2000. Definitely an album I love to "chill" to. John Mayer - Room for Squares: I know he's be much overhyped and shoved down our throats since he made it big, but I just really loved his first album (not so much since) Jurrasic 5 - Quality Control: I was hard to choose between this album and Power in Numbers 2 years later, but they are both great specimens of lyrical flow. Nappy Roots - Watermelon, Chicken, & Gritz: Everytime I listen to this album, I'm reminded of good times I had the few times I went to Club Reign in Denton (no further comment) Outkast - Stankonia: See the Nappy Roots write up above. TobyMac - Portable Sounds: A Christian Rock/Hip Hop album...a little poppy but there is so much energy packed into the album. Also very well produced. Francesca Batestelli - Paper Heart: Another Christian artist...listened to this album 4 or 5 times recently. Every song is great. Very impressive especially for a 21 year old. I can't wait to see what her future work will hold. Sister Hazel - Chasing Daylight: Such talented songwriter and musicians and this album showed it best. Maybe a little to sappy for many people's tastes, but I loved it. Coldplay - Viva la Vida: I know this probably makes me look gay, but I think with every album they make, they just keep getting better and better. I had to listen to it a couple of times before it started taking hold, but I think its brilliant. I could go on for a while, but lunch break is over...so back to work.

When will the tweets start?

Klingon? Big trek convention coming up?

Yep! I've only tried the beer once or twice (mostly cause its expensive at $10-11 a six pack). From what I recall, it was good. I'll have to take a brewery tour soon to check it out a little more. The brewery sits on about a one acre plot, so it truely is a "microbrewery". Hopefully I can become a fan so I can support the local business.

I've become a big fan of New Belgium (Fat Tire, Skinny Dip, Blue Paddle, 1554, etc.) over the last year. Probably cause its close by and so abundant up here. I'm going on the brewery tour on Friday (free beer!) so that is something else for me to look forward to besides football. However, Shiner will always hold a special place in my heart.

Buffalo Wild Wings in Longmont, CO...who's with me!!!

Yea...by dating, he means that he's porkin' her.

Amen

Beowulf?

In business, invoices typically have 30 day terms to pay them. We may have reached that period for the first sales, but if UncSam starts sending out the checks in the next couple weeks, it would still be pretty reasonable. Hell, it takes 4 to 8 weeks to get purchase rebates back from most companies. WHERE'S MY REBATE ON THE CONTACTS I BOUGHT YESTERDAY!!!!!! THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!!! They say to-may-toe, we say to-mah-toe.

Sadly, this happens much too often with a 1,000 page, 1,500 year old book.

Kind of like Idiocracy coming to life.

Fixed it for ya

Hey!!! I AM actually 3.

Spoken like a true NCAA football video game addict. So when do you play the Ball State guy (you're still doing that, right?) and when will it be available for viewing? I'm desperate for any kind of football!

Think we could get a late fight card for Ticket Fight Night?

Do you have a dog you could train to piss on it?

I propose a political cage match between eealy and meangreenbob. It would be wheels off for sure.
