    Music playing devices

    I LOVE this quote! Though I respect how easy it is to flip on the Ipod with all the songs on it, (and understand people's love for them) I still don't need one, and I simply adore music. So I agree with you, well said! :wisdom:

    More on Roger and Gilmour None of the following are my words, but, today at http://www.pinkfloydz.com/: From Roger Waters... So here's what happened. Last year, 'The Hoping Foundation' a charity that supports Palestinian refugee kids, (www.hopingfoundation.org) put on a fund raiser at...

    Prog Rock (Roger Waters and more)

    I agree -from the era when pop/rock didn't mean disposable!Maybe there's a prog era of them we don't know about. Either way, I always loved "The Logical Song" - perhaps it's those "deep thinker lyrics" that make people label them prog :) PS http://www.pinkfloydz.com/ says Waters and Gilmour...

    Prog Rock (Roger Waters and more)

    I also saw Frampton, and not only did he still have it, (did all the hits as good as ever, and really rockin) but he had it, and then some! Played stuff from his new album at the time (5 years ago or less, I think) and one song at least had a really heavy riff thing going on that most don't...

    Nickelodeon Petition

    Thank you for that! :) Though I didn't take it personally, and knew you were only getting the word out on cartoons, it's still cool to hear that from you. After the second person denounced 80's toons, though, I wondered if everyone was gonna jump on the bandwagon and bash away!:concern...

    Nickelodeon Petition

    I do echo the sentiments of everyone here against the derogatory term used in the petition. I would like to think it was just that the 11 year old (who's the son of a friend of the person here who made the original post) doesn't really have anything against anyone who's gay, just that sadly, in...

    Nickelodeon Petition

    Well, now I clearly see that if this was a vote, the 70's and 80's shows would have the Ralph Nader amount of votes...but, just as with Nader supporters, I can still hold on to my views on cartoons, no matter how unpopular...:D (But regarding Nader, I don't know enough to make a call...though I...

    Nickelodeon Petition

    I respect your opinion, and both of your reasons for disdain for that era (you don't like the shows, and you don't like the board rooms deciding the shows) - but as far as my post showing I "probably don't know all about the terrible state animation was in those periods" - I can only reply as...

    There are so many shows out now, on many many channels, that make all of those shows you mentioned look like gold :o

    Who else likes these shows?

    I don't think I've heard of Prison Break (though that doesn't mean it isn't great!) but as for the rest, I've heard good things about all these shows - but I guess I haven't really gotten into any current (or recently ended) shows...not because I don't think they're good...I can't put my finger...

    Decline of entertainment?

    Agreed! I've called Jonathan Winters the only great aspect about it that I know of (no offense to the other people involved - just that I want originals in it, and Jonathan Winters, in general, is the man!) And I guess they removed Grandpa from the story - so, since Papa Smurf's original voice...

    Decline of entertainment?

    In addition to the plot and setting of the Smurfs movie (yes, yuck to them) and the whole CGI (yuck - leave them animated without CGI) and live action mix (what is going on?) my main problem is the lack of respect and/or decency of the Smurf Movie people to ask the original Smurf voices still...

    Very cool artwork! And I knew the fox from the album cover even though I don't know the album very well - We all have a different experience here, ha. (Interesting how you worked the whale in there, too! Hope they don't eat him!). That is a great triple bill, indeed, and then the super...

    Decline of entertainment?

    No new film of A-Team, Karate Kid, or Smurfs for me.:sleep: However, for those just joining the thread now, I love the A-Team show, and the Smurfs in all incarnations I know of (until this film)... However, I have a comment on the first Bay Transformers movie: I never saw the show, (or the...

    Animal and Floyd Accept the Webby Award

    Mr. Spinney too! :wisdom: I know he wasn't on TMS, but he was asked by Jim to join the Muppets years before SS - it was just that there was a misunderstanding, so...luckily they met again, and all was well :)

    Cookie Monster PC game (90-94?)

    There's a Cookie Monster PC game that came out, I'd say, between 1990 and 1994 - I was wondering if anyone has any idea of the name, or a link to the box, or screen shots. I've tried searching with no luck. Thank you! :insatiable:
