I think I've told you all before that I had my CD's stolen. I had 200+ CD's snatched from my car when I left it unlocked.
Anyway. Now that I'm working a little more, I've been stocking up on discs. It's a real pain in the ass. I try to buy 3 to 4 albums a week.
Today, I went into Best Buy (and yes, mah, I looked for the second season of The Simpsons on DVD, it wasn't there). I bought Weezer: Pinkerton, The Braveheart Soundtrack, and Echos: The Best of Pink Floyd.
Last week I only got two: O Yeah, Aerosmiths Ultimate Hits and Tom Petty: Wildflowers. Both damn fine albums.
ToMacco
What? You don't like those CD's, or what?
Julie
i'm a bit behind in the news here.....I'm sorry to hear that you lost a lot of cds.....um maybe you should lock you car from now on.....
ToMacco
Yeah, yeah. I've already figured this out.
But my damn car was parked in the driveway of my folks house. And they don't exsactly live in a rough neighborhood, you know?
queeq
Amazing...
Ah well, it sucks. I bet he's blamed himself so much for that now. Cheer up, To. They are replacable.... not cheaply, but replaceable.
Gundark
Pink Floyd. Good choice.
finti
nah not after the Final Cut album
Gundark
Well I'm not going to argue with the voice of authority in that department.
ToMacco shouldn't have left CD's in his car anyway...hot and cold...not good for them.
finti
so true, you hear this Dewayne
Gundark
I foresee this thread quickly turned into the 'abuse ToMacco once again' thread !
finti
semi redneck with a car stereo
Gundark
Tex could send him some Bjork CD's.
Tex
Yes, theres not alot of thief's with class!
Your going about it the wrong way To. Stay away from Best Buy and other brick and glass places! Get them online! You can save about 30% on each CD. I get all mine at alldirect.com the site may not be fancy, but the savings are!
mah
hmm, how come it's out in europe and not the US...
so To , for how long have you been buying 3 CD's a week? how many do you have now?
ToMacco
Redneck? Ouch.
I don't have many at all mah.
And also, I don't like to burn CD's. They scratch to easy. If someone in the room cuts a loud fart, your disc is ruined.
mah
haven't had that problem personally, but I still like to buy the cd's I want, it feels better to have the booklet and correct cover and everything.
finti
You can buy the cd`s but you dont need the original in your car
yerssot
yeah! love the rule!
my dad is a real freak when it comes to music, he almost has an entire room full, and according to the rule you can keep as much copies of a song as you want as long as you have the original cd (bought of course) and it stayes in your own property...well... the comp is his property of course... I'm just the frequent user
Gundark
My cd's are totally separate from Tommy's and in alphabetical order.
Tex
Yup
That's what I do.
CD-R dont scratch easily, they are just as durable as regualr CD's.
You must have dry crackly hands.
All those cuts from work.
Gundark
So he's going to end up with a messy CD collection from his bloody stumps.
LaurenE147
I will give a prize to whoever can tell me what the most redneck car is that is not a pickup truck.
Tex
A Cameno with beer bottles and a barking dog in the back.
ToMacco
I don't know. What do you drive Tex? That would be my guess.
finti
Volvo a rednecks friend, in Norway Volvo is nicked as Tractor.
Tex
Well!!!!
I absolutely love my Volvo! It's small, fast, safe and has a little phone built into the seat! Not to mention leather heated seats, a moon roof and side impact airbags!
I look hot as hell driving it too!
Theres nothing tractor like about my baby!!!
.........and I didn't have to pay a cent for it!
yerssot
and instead of a lighter they have a lipstick holder
Tex
Outrageous!!!!
Volvo's aren't woman cars!!
Hmph!!
It doesn't have a lighter though, instead it features a manly power plug
Tex
what?
LaurenE147
ding ding ding ding ding!
Tes wins the prize. A Camaro is the most redneck car other than a pickup truck. And I looooooove them.
Tex
Camero's are kewl, Camenos are not.
Two different cars.
finti
Volvo a car????hmm farm aid
yerssot
battle of the Lada: A New Volvo
Gundark
Camaros and El Caminos are worlds apart.
I can't think of anything more redneck than a pickup. With a gunrack in the back window with a level in it.
LaurenE147
And big old monster truck wheels on it. I have actually seen a car like this. *retch*

ToMacco
Went to Best Buy again today, got these CD's:
Weezer: Blue
The Best of Van Morrison
Bruce Springstein Greatest Hits
Greatful Dead: Skeletons From the Closet
Another Side of Bob Dylan
Bob Dylan: The Times They Are A' Changin'
and The Free Wheelin' Bob Dylan
Spent WAY too much money, but oh well.
keokiswahine
TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, you're home tonight. !!!
Tex
I got me a pack of mini CDR's, their so cute!!
I absolutely love them, cause sometimes I have 4 or 5 songs that I've downloaded and I dont want to waste a whole CD burning them, now I can just put them on these little cute ones!
ToMacco
Yeah, Keo. I'm home.
Spent way to much cash at the bars last night. Decided to stay in tonight and give my liver a rest. Poor little guy. I'm so hard on it sometimes.
keokiswahine
and the twins, your kidneys
Tex
They retired 4 years ago.
ToMacco
Yeah, those too.
Although, I do have some Vodka leftover. . . . .hmmmm. . . . .
finti
oh never save the leftovers
ToMacco
I'll have you all know that I didn't get drunk on a Saturday night. I'm a little worried about myself.
*hides under bed* What's wrong with me?
mah
you're starting to loose the addiction?
ToMacco
Well, I wouldn't go that far.
I've still got that Vodka. Perhaps I should drink it now. It's 3 in the afternoon here. I don't have to go to bed for a long time. I'm thinking I should open up a Sunday drinking thread if I do crack open the bottle.
mah
well we've had threads for most days, so why not
ToMacco
Screw that. But I'll have you know I'm now drinking a Vodka Diet, and listening to Another Side of Bob Dylan.
Tex
Vodka diet?
I think it's terrific that you care about what you put into your body!
ToMacco
Yeah, that does kind of defeat the purpose, huh?
It's like those people who go to McDonalds, and get a Super Size Big Mac meal with a diet coke.
ToMacco
No kiddin'.
finti
diet coke is called Coca Cola Light over here
ToMacco
That's pretty gay. We only have light beer here. Everything else is diet.
By the way, I don't drink light beer.
finti
It was called the same in the States too, but it didnt sell so they change it to diet coke and BINGO. Easy fooled yanks
ToMacco
There are a lot of stupid people on this planet.
queeq
And they all live in the US?
ToMacco
. . . . . . . . . .
queeq
To is wisely keeping his mouth...
yerssot
first time for everything
ToMacco
Sometimes it is necissary to keep one's mouth shut, and let the fool make a fool of himself.
queeq
But yerssot does that anyway.
yerssot
I'm built to act like that
queeq
Act? Hardly, it's real. That's the sad part.
yerssot
what can I say...Raz has made me too realistc
ToMacco
My theory is correct
ToMacco
I have many theories.
finti
and none of them are functional
Gundark
I bet he has a theory about ep3.
Tex
All of To's theories involve female midgets
mah
reminds me of ''and reporting live is a midget in a bikini'' from the south park movie.
ToMacco
female midgets, huh?
yerssot
perhaps tex can finally find the midget of his life...if she is hairy, you can call her Wicket the Ewok
LaurenE147
Never trust your positronic matrix to the British. Those bloody redcoats affect their brains.
Tex
Yeah!
Just look what they did to Detroit Madonna!
Now shes in a theatrical production in the West End!
Oh the horror!!!
ToMacco
. . . .. . . . . . . . . . What?
Gundark
Lost me on that one too. What the hell are they talking about ?
ToMacco
I don't know. I think Texs' mind comes and goes.
Gundark
Well the next time it goes, I hope it stays there.
finti
I really dont think Tex has a mind at all
Gundark
So the disgusting grey gelatinous mass in his skull is just that ?
queeq
I guess so. Can't think of anything else. New flavor of jello?
Gundark
Mop-water grey jello.
Ick.
LaurenE147
We're talking about the fact that Brits couldn't program their VCR if their life depended on it. How many of y'all in the States have electronics from the UK?
(j/k by the way)
queeq
Is there such a thing as UK electronics?????
yerssot
BBC Electronics, bringing the UK closer to you
Gundark
Laptop - Compaq
Digital Camera - HP
Printer/scanner/copier - HP
Desktop - Compaq
VCR's - whatever Wal-Mart had on sale.
So...who makes that stuff ?
yerssot
santa claus!
The happiest chubby person in the world!
Gundark
Of course. How stupid of me....
yerssot
nooooooooo! not stupid, you just forgot!
Gundark
I wonder what George gets for Christmas ? SW toys ?
yerssot
probably more flanel shirts
LaurenE147
I wonder how many Japanese electronics I have in my house.
Thane Zereil
I have too many gadgets and as such would take me far to long to work that one out
mah
you've got one of them sony robot dogs?
Thane Zereil
and the independent R2 toy as well...
LaurenE147
Does it walk around and do stuff, too?
yerssot
like falling over
LaurenE147
And annoying glden protocal droids?
yerssot
they have an off-switch of course
The Scoundrel
well it follows you around and beeps merrily away and plays some games, its kind of like the Yoda Furby but slightly more independent...
