| June 17, 2002 - What is the best cd to listen to when you are depressed? For the longest time, I listened to the Nirvana Unplugged cd. Yesterday, I discovered a quality replacement...Love is Here by Starsailor. It brings you down repeatedly, which is desirable during any good depression, but it gently picks you back up again with the song Good Souls. Who is sharing your bed these days, Glenn? The most consistent presence in my bed over the last two and a half years is my stuffed lion, creatively named "The Lion". He was a sympathy gift from Kiley after the Astros were eliminated from the playoffs in 1999 (I still can't hear the name "Walt Wiess" without immediately shedding tears). Am I embarrassed that I'm a 22 year old male who is attached to a stuffed animal? No...should I be? What is your take on the US-Mexico result? First off, I'm ecstatic. I know some people will dismiss the result as unjust because Mexico dominated possession. Honestly, though, I think it only makes it that much more impressive what the US was able to do. They scored in the 8th minute and were able to play conservatively the remainder of the game. Does the US haveu. a shot against Germany? The US doesn't match up very well, but the Germans are certainly beatable. It is certainly an intriguing enough game to artificially build my hopes up. Would you like to come see hot girl on girl action? Click here. Yes, Please. How was The Bourne Identity? I know a lot of people are hesitant about this movie because it casts Matt Damon as an action star. Seriously, it is worth getting over. The movie is a tightly paced, intense, well-directed thriller. Admittedly, I haven't read the book that it is based on so I can't comment on any changes, but the movie holds up well on its own. What are you going to do with your life? - Dad Umm, next please. I see Har Mar Superstar listed on your songs worth listening to. Who is that? Picture Ron Jeremy singing Tenacious D-like songs in his underwear, all the while trying to pull of a sexy lounge singer image. That is Har Mar Superstar, coming soon to a town near you. That's all for today. Keep your questions coming in and maybe you too can be featured on this page. |
