  1. Every real music fan knows the more unknown a band is, the better they are!
  2. and smoke mega spliff while having punky reggae party prepare bacon rashers have bread available for toasting peanut butter optional oil for chips be careful keep flour on hand in case of inflammable episode red stripe and banks Some bacon on white bread with Miracle Whip would hit the spot right about now. Anyway, what's the difference between "inflammable" and "flammable"?
  3. It's cool that England also invites musicians like Lydon to speak out on current affairs type shows. Here in the states, next week at the Commonwealth Club, Metallica and Wu Tang Clan are going debate the proposed extension of FMLA allowable maternity leave benefits and the effect it might have on small to medium sized businesses.
  4. You must be an employer. Some new hurdle to overcome?
  5. seems my troubles were so far away Now it looks as though they're here to stay She came in through the bathroom window... and I saw her standing there it's all too much I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
  6. Is it weird that I like cooking chocolate? No weirder than baking it, I suppose.
  7. Originally posted by jimmers originally Posted by jimmers originally posted By jimmers Who IS SCORPIO? Maybe it's that guy Tristan Rogers plays on General Hospital. I don't know for sure. What I do know is the random capitalization of words in the last several posts has proven far more entertaining than I would have thought possible.
  8. Nice book to have. (thumbs u New acquisition? This month,thanks! More proud of this tho... Pretty cool cover. Not familiar with Purple Claw or a lot of GA for that matter. The GA stuff I know is primarily Superman related, Archie, EC, and a few specific "funny" titles. I'm always amazed at just how many good stories and great art are from that era.
  9. I saw these guys ages ago and they covered Holiday in Cambodia and the Batman theme song.
  10. From my earliest days of reading Marvel & DC I always looked forward to the letters pages as this was how I knew there were others with a similar passion for the characters and stories. I felt a peculiar connection to those who had letters published previously as they seemed, at least to me, to be the more serious collectors. Some years later I learned of T.M. Maple's passing in a comic book and was deeply saddened as his letters contributed to my enjoyment of comic books.
  11. Welcome to the boards. These forums have much to offer.
  12. Rhubarb or gooseberry or good old apple Shoo Fly Pie is woefully underrated.
  13. As soon as Roy gets it to me, THIS will definitely be going in the new frame Very nice. The colors on that book really pop. (thumbs u
  14. Thanks for showing us copies of the "true" Oregon collection. I really like the focused runs that comprise that collection. Very nice books.
  15. I don't believe there's a specific thread. It's a neat idea and has been suggested before.
  16. Cool book. The scan's a bit fuzzy, but the cover presents nicely for the grade. (thumbs u
  17. The paperbacks intrigue me even more than the magazine. That may of course be because I don't have any of the paperbacks.... Well, as I say I bought them cheaply from a 2nd hand bookshop. I was probably about 13 and had never heard of Mad mag or the original comic at that time. It was love at first sight and I devoured them. From there I began buying the regular UK version of the mag. My Mad comic no.4 is one of my favorite books and I need to work on a low grade run of the other comic issues. Man, I wish I'd bought that no. 24 from Harley! The paperbacks are a great way to read random stuff(cheaply) from old issues. Another plus for me was being able to get books that featured all Dave Berg strips, or all tv parodies for example.
  18. Very nice! Late 70's IM covers are so nice to look at. (thumbs u
  19. Can't kids today just smoke banana peels and eat nutmeg?
  20. As long as you learn from the mistake. Don't ever post in this thread. Whatever board cred you've developed previously will be diminished.
  21. Wow! Tortoise already sold his JIM 83? Nice book to start your CGC collection with. That's a great book! Congrats!
