Hangman

The Christmas tree makes my wife happy. We put it up as early as she wants and leave it up as long as she wants. It doesn’t bother me.

I hated all the dream sequence episodes, but other than that I loved this show.

Not this time, my puppy has been sick and I didn’t want to leave him. But I’ve seen them 15 or so times, though. Always a good time.

Lots of worthy nominees.. Some a little surprised they're not already in. MC5 was a nominee last year as well but since they're not that well known I've doubts they'll be accepted this time either. Just as it usually is lots of famous musicians who are more on the pulse of things are often influenced by not so well known bands where the influence is undeniable yet the popular culture is unaware of them. MC5 is a great example. They even had a 50 year reunion tour last year but only the guitarist and drummer are still alive. All remaining spots in the band were filled by other famous musicians such as Soundgarden's guitarist. Their original drummer was also replaced as he can't hold his own anymore

I think MC5 is going to have to get inducted as an Early Influencer or something. I don’t see them getting elected in.

No love for T. Rex???

 

Holy moley, Marc Bolen and T. Rex had an influence on just about everyone out there...The Who, David Bowie, The Smiths, Ringo Starr, Rod Stewart, The Ramones, Elton John, The Pixies....

Yes, I should have included T Rex in my “I’d like to see it but I’d be surprised” section.

Looks like a lot of deserving acts, to me. Actually, this seems like a year when there aren’t a lot of first time eligible acts and it’s a good time to recognize some of those who have been snubbed.

My first guess as to who gets in, assuming 5:

Notorious BIG (the only lock of the group, I’d say)

Pat Benetar

Depeche Mode

Motörhead

Whitney Houston

I’d like to see NIN, Soundgarden, and Thin Lizzy but I’m not seeing it.

It’s ultimately meaningless, but I enjoy the conversation.

I’m a couple of months shy of 2 years older than my wife.

New album is out. Been waiting for 13 years. Today is a good day!!

What’d you think? I was underwhelmed.

Water and coffee, since that’s all I drink that isn’t excluded.

Train and Guns n Roses today.

I have probably been to 500 concerts. Unfortunately, my first one was Boyz II Men.

Nothing wrong with a little Motownphilly.

Good Will Hunting and Dead Poets Society...

Robin’s acting chops may have been overshadowed by his big personality... But when it comes down to it, he was an under-appreciated treasure as far as I’m concerned.

I wish I’d gotten to attend a WWF event back in the Stone Cold heyday to hear the pop when that glass broke.

When he interfered to help Mankind win the title, for example.

I was at the Seahawks/Texans game 2 years ago which was an absolute thriller. When Wilson hit Jimmy Graham for the go-ahead score with 21 seconds left, Seattle was rocking. Final score of 41-38.

Lollapalooza in 2011... 100,000 or so people shoulder to shoulder watching one band? Nope. Never again.

Sunset Riders

One of Harden and Westbrook won’t survive this time around. They’re both too used to dominating the ball.

I couldn’t care less. I’d let one of you cut my hair.

I hope not. I loved both so much, but it’s time to let the past go.

Put it up there with the Led Zeppelin reunion... The fantasy is better than the reality could ever be. Guaranteed disappointment.

About Ovi getting eliminated. Camp Comeback doesn’t bother me, and I actually like that they still get to interact in the house.

Ovi getting eliminated was pretty dumb. I don’t watch After Dark or anything like that typically, so I’m not sure how it went from wanting either Kemi or Kat gone and being satisfied with either to crying about loving Kemi and sending Ovi up... To then Kat getting 0 votes for elimination.

Ovi is the most likable person in the house and feels the most authentic.

I’m annoyed.

About who got eliminated? Or Camp Comeback?

I’d say Bischoff killed their finances by giving out big guaranteed contracts. It worked for a minute, but eventually caught up to them.

Creatively, he had one good idea: The nWo. They milked it for all it was worth, and then some.

What decade is this?

There may not be a house guest that doesn’t annoy me so far.

Can I say my mortgage?
