My dad woke me up at 5am a few months ago with three phone calls in rapid succession, and when I finally answered he was wasted and said, "Oh my god, you have to go listen to Joe Bonamassa, the greatest blues guitarist I've ever seen."

I only hate him when he does shit like that.
He was right about Bonamassa though

My dad took me to every single show I saw between the ages of thirteen and twenty [except The Cure in '96. He absolutely refused and I had to go alone]. A two-hour drive each way on a school night to see Rage Against the Machine would be a lot to ask of any 40-something dad. My dad was and is a Mormon, so that makes it even more peculiar.
My dad was also a lighting engineer for concert venues in Las Vegas in the 70's, though. It was pretty important to him to impart the importance of rock music to his children.

important to impart the importance As you read this sentence, and no doubt several like it that I have written today, I remind you once again that I am very sick and very medicated.

Hey HG, what's your post count at?

This post is #700!
If you're suggesting that I am attempting to pad my post count, I might point out that if you break it down I've written more on this board than most of you combined. It evens out.

While on the subject I have to point out that my dad was STOKED when Foo was announced and can't wait for single day tickets to go on sale so he can see them and then leave before it ends to beat the rush

If you're suggesting that I am attempting to pad my post count Not at all, just thought I'd set you up for a #700 boast. Remember that it's in my best interest to keep your posts coming. Good work hitting 666 and 700 in the same day!

Anyway, thanks. I guess I hadn't noticed until you pointed it out. Seven hundred, people! Drinks are on me tonight. If you can find where I'm drinking.

knowidyuh, is there a "block user" option anywhere? I'm not sure where to find this option, but it is possible. I'm guessing I don't have the option to block users. If you click on the member's username, I'll bet there is an option at the top to "Block Member," probably right where mine says, "Ban Member." However, I wouldn't suggest actually blocking people. I think you would end up missing part of the conversation if someone is blocked, and you risk re-typing the exact point they just made and looking like an idiot. You never know, the newb you are considering blocking might be a comedian in real life and the most entertaining member of the board once they get passed the rookie hazing. They might also have single attractive sisters who like soccer and Deadmau5.

Good work hitting 666 and 700 in the same day! The race to 1000! Here is the 500 club. interstateeight 962 Peatrick 897 know ID yuh 826 Anagram Horde 702 lumpy0ypmul 693 At his current rate, Horned Grammar should reach 1,000 next week. If a couple more newbs who disagree with him show up, he might reach 1,500 by Thursday. Can interstateeight step up his game with only 38 posts remaining? Can Peatrick stay ahead of HG, while cutting down the gap on I8. Stay tuned.

I had no idea there were only 5 people in this club. I think I'm doomed to be the last person to reach 1,000. I've been working on that 693 since Jan 2009, so at this rate, it'll probably be at least summer 2011 before I hit it.

Though I'll be out of school in December and on to a 9-5 job that will probably give me more free time than I'm used to, so I could increase my rate.
And yeah, I used 2 posts to say that.
