Huh. An actual physical Spanish Prisoner letter from Spain. How quaint. -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 14:58
Slate: Does Achtung Baby deserve Nevermind treatment? - Name Withheld By Request Oct 20, 14:50 23
- For me, yes. - The Ruiner Oct 20, 14:53 19
  - it didn't change my life, but man I grew to love U2 becuase of that cd. -- nm - Remlik Oct 20, 14:55 18
    - Same here, that's the album that made me discover U2, I was 13 at the time. - celedhring Oct 20, 15:02
    - Joshua Tree took me from like to love. Came at a time I went intorverted. - The Ruiner Oct 20, 14:57 4
      - Unforgettable Fire was mine. -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 15:00 3
        
        It was one of my favs, but it sort of failed to deliver in the way JT did. -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 20, 15:01 2
        
        my biggest memory of JT was that it was a huge event on campus. People were playing it out the window and writing lyricso nthe sidewalk -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 15:01 1
        
        Exactly. UF had some message, but JT's was loud enough for people to hear. -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 20, 15:03
    - I loved U2 from about 1984 or so, and it took quite a big adjustment to like Achtung. -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 14:56 11
      - It was the last one from them I truly liked from nearly start to finish. - Mel Profit Oct 20, 14:58 3
        
        I have to give Nevermind the edge on that. -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 15:00 2
        
        Opposite fo rme. Nevermind = Joshua Tree. - The Ruiner Oct 20, 15:02 1
        
        oh, I'm not referring to overall quality. I think JT is better. -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 15:04
      - Oh, no. It was their Coming Out party. -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 20, 14:58 2
        
        looking back now, I agree, but I didn't get it at first. -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 14:59 1
        
        Like Pop was, for me. -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 20, 15:00
      - when I was in college in 87 I liked the Josha Tree cd so I went to the show & thought the other stuff was just ok...I was a metalhead then.... - Remlik Oct 20, 14:58 3
        
        Joshua Tree tour is probably not in my top 20. Zoo TV is my favorite tour, all time. -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 20, 14:59 2
        
        well it was the RCA Dome which sucked ass for concerts & the audio wasn't near up to snuff for dome shows...like it was 5 years later -- nm - Remlik Oct 20, 15:00 1
        
        Oh, agreed. Joshua Tree was a concert. Zoo TV was an experience. Just took you in and had it's way with you. -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 20, 15:04
- seems like every album and movie with significant sales gets an anniversary treatment now. -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 14:50 2
  - Well, but not necessarily an "uber deluxe" edition that'll set you back 400 and change -- nm - con_carnage Oct 20, 14:56
  - The article makes the point, it sold well, but not *that* well. The Black Album and Garth Brooks' (I'm assuming "No Fences") both outsold it. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Oct 20, 14:54
Senator Levin (D-MI) has become the 31st co-sponsor of a bill repealing DOMA -- nm - MDH Oct 20, 14:46

Surprising facts about the Columbo series. Can you guess who directed the first episode of the series? - GregW Oct 20, 14:43 12
- Looking at Bochco's writing credits on imdb. The guy is just a hit machine. -- nm - GregW Oct 20, 14:51
- was he even old enough to drink? -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 14:46
- Steven Spielberg? -- nm - amoxy Oct 20, 14:44 6
  - I was going to guess that -- nm - crash davis Oct 20, 14:45 5
    - You know, sometimes our intellect scares me -- nm - amoxy Oct 20, 14:46
    - he basically showed up at the Universal lot and hung around until they gave him a job directing anything -- nm - poxie Oct 20, 14:46 3
      - well if worked for him, why not for you? -- nm - crash davis Oct 20, 14:48 2
        
        i don't want to direct - poxie Oct 20, 14:48 1
        
        Terence Winter (B'walk Empire, Sopranos) has a pretty good story about how he got his agent -- (link) - poxie Oct 20, 14:51

  - see? even Spawn agrees. - Mel Profit Oct 20, 14:37 8
    - no it's not. -- nm - Diva Oct 20, 15:53
    - Well then, what more can be said? -- nm - amoxy Oct 20, 14:40 6
      - I'm glad everyone sees this even if she doesn't. - Mel Profit Oct 20, 14:41 5
        
        Oh come on, we know who wears the pants in your household -- nm - amoxy Oct 20, 14:44 4
        
        listen lady... -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 20, 14:44 2
        
        I feel like Gulliver right now -- nm - amoxy Oct 20, 14:47 1
        
        you like being tied up by little people? -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 20, 14:59
        
        I bet both of them own pants -- nm - crash davis Oct 20, 14:44
So anybody using Catwoman yet in Batman AC - eag Oct 20, 14:29 15
- She's a blast as a fighter. -- nm - David Oct 20, 14:34 5
  - I have not fired Robin up but have a feeling he will be, too. - The Ruiner Oct 20, 14:36 4
    - why Grayson? Drake is the man. Grayson is a #2. -- nm - Remlik Oct 20, 14:37 3
      - Grayson did the one thing Drake needs to do - crash davis Oct 20, 14:40 1
        
        Drake did...now he's Red Robin and Daimen is the new Robin... - Remlik Oct 20, 14:57
      - Eh. Acrobatics. -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 20, 14:38

        whatever - crash davis Oct 20, 14:39 2
        
        I was just bemoaning to David that I have to work all weekend at the store AND radio station so it leaves me very little time -- nm - Remlik Oct 20, 15:00

    - [deleted] 8
      - I do not think I have ever looked at one's crotch. - ghouly Oct 20, 14:33 7
        
        Unless it's some bikini or tight jeans camel toe thing going on and you are drawn to it. -- nm - Bacon Oct 20, 14:34 3
        
        well, bikini oggling has completely different rules. nm -- nm - ghouly Oct 20, 14:34
        
        No one is drawn to that. -- nm - TFox Oct 20, 14:34 1

      - well duh. single chicks don't hook up with married guys. you've gotta find the married ones. -- nm - TFox Oct 20, 14:26 1
        
        yeah, this is partly true, and the other part is that you have to hook up with the same status people - ghouly Oct 20, 14:28
