The Stones were grrrrrrreat. They still have it even though half of them are stoned out of their mind all the time. <g> Quality of the sound is almost always better when done with the accoustics of a studio as compared to a live venue without much in the way of accoustics. However, there is something about concerts. The anticipation and excitement, and yes, this old guy still can get excited over things other than just sex :>)...! Some who really sound good and put on an excellent 'LIVE' show are the Stones, Fleetwood Mac, Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band, Pink Floyd, and the Doobie Brothers, to name a few of the better live performers in the Rock world. Country Western music is ALWAYS, ALWAYS better live. It's the atmosphere for both types of music. A few beers before they come on stage, not to mention all the pot floating around in the arena. When the lights go down it looks like flashbulbs going off all over the place. It's all the pot smokers lighting up. <ggg> Maybe thats why the Spurs seem to lose when they have a home game the next night. :>)
About the "drop dead gorgeous Texans in burnt orange"...hmmmmm, I dunno Ksquared, I was busy checking out the female counterparts. And since I didn't tape the game I can't go back and check...LOL As to the admission requirements, well since I got in I don't think they have any requirements anymore. Actually, I think in some ways Texas climate is so good year round that many in Texas get enough sun without the effects that those in Florida and California get with most of their cities situated on the coast and ours are mostly inland. This is contrary to jacknorth's point of view of course. He thinks Texas is one gigantic chemical warfare type of state where no one can even breathe. Course jack is an Expert on everything even though he has neither been anywhere or done anything. Boy am I rambling here. In other words my conclusion is admission requirements had to be lowered to allow me in and I suspect that most colleges have lots of good looking people, causin' they are younger than us and haven't had to go through what we've gone through.....yet. <g>
Sorry NLionGuy and I couldn't be there to help paint. My excuse was I was having my annual Lobotomy. NLionGuy will have to come up with his own cover story. LOL I do know one thing...it is bound to look a whole lot better than it would with me and NLionGuy helping you. So you were better off. Now if you need a barn errected or some ranch fencing done, then I am your man. I also do electrical and plumbing. Oh, and mowing too but, I think you have the mowing under control.
I have 6-13 marked down and highlighted this time...bad boy, bad boy, me!
No weird'r than the rest of us! Without weird, the world would be a bore. LOL
And about the extra 117 pounds...you were right, I did stretch it a bit...was actually 116 pounds. I forgot to take my belt off.
