I have a crazy idea. I call it Pomegranate-White Grapefruit milkshake. -- nm - Max Nov 18, 20:01 16
- Jack in the Box has an excellent pomegranate smoothie. Just add lemon or grapefruit juice and you're golden. -- nm - Trish Nov 18, 20:57
- wouldn't the combination of grapefruit and milkshake form a curdle? oh yes, and erp. -- nm - Diva Nov 18, 20:09 11
  - no no, I make lemon juice milkshakes all the time. without milk though - just the juice and ice cream until it's liquid. -- nm - Max Nov 18, 20:11 9
    - There's a burger joint here that has both lemon and lime milkshakes. I'm not entirely sure what they make them from, though. - Reagen Nov 18, 20:53
    - Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrross!!!!! -- nm - Redmond Nov 18, 20:15 5
      - fine, we'll make you a bacon shake -- nm - zeitgeist Nov 18, 21:15
      - I'll bet anyone here who likes vanilla milkshake that they'll like lemon milkshakes if they try it. -- nm - Max Nov 18, 20:16 3
        
        if it's anything like lemon sorbet it probably works fine. -- nm - Diva Nov 18, 20:18 1
        
        exactly, but it's fresher -- nm - Max Nov 18, 20:18

Sorkin's coming back! Yay! -- (link) - Dr.Vermin Nov 18, 19:36 2
- That's great news, though I'd prefer to see him break some new ground instead of returning to an idea that hasn't been as successful for him. -- nm - Fuzzy Nov 18, 20:04 1
  - That's just the frame. The real story is in the issues. -- nm - nubby Nov 18, 20:31

MojaveMeg, in order to deal with the budget cuts UCLA is planning to cut all of the english composition classes. They will remove Eng Comp as a grad - James Bond (aka Igor) Nov 18, 19:04 2

- jean skirt? ugh. -- nm - Max Nov 18, 19:28
- #6 by a landslide, #4 runner-up, #3 second runner-up - Stephen Nov 18, 19:24
- The one on the right seems like she's going to climax with or without me, so the pressure is off. -- nm - David Nov 18, 19:20

- punch and pie! -- nm - Beaker Nov 18, 18:58
- always. in any situation. - nubby Nov 18, 18:57 2
  - Anywhere? *Puts a piece of cake in the lion cage at the zoo* -- nm - Redmond Nov 18, 19:00 1
    - "You may ask why an independent guy like me is getting married." - nubby Nov 18, 19:06
lady gaga isn't even close to madonna on any level yet - giganto Nov 18, 18:53 35
- agreed -- nm - Beaker Nov 18, 19:08
- She's a *much* better singer (and musician), for starters. nm - Dignan Nov 18, 19:06
- Brittney and Christina come the closest to touching Madonna like -- nm - eag Nov 18, 19:04 5
  - I think xtina actually has vocal talent, which makes her different. I think britney is a far better comparison. -- nm - a-maine-da Nov 18, 19:27 4
    - And she seems legitimately concerned about expanding her range of style. -- nm - Reagen Nov 18, 19:31 1
      - And Christina has sung duets with everybody from Tony Bennett to Mick Jagger--you don't see people lining up to sing with Brit-Brit. - Trish Nov 18, 20:28
    - Britney has undeniable dance talent. Aguilera totally has the vocals, though. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 18, 19:28 1
      - I think britney's persona is more charismatic too than is xtina's, which just adds to her dance talent. -- nm - a-maine-da Nov 18, 19:30
- I kind of dig that early madonna recording that was just sold at auction. it kind of embarrasses me, but... -- nm - a-maine-da Nov 18, 18:56
- Madonna's early stuff was pretty fluffy. just saying. -- nm - loosilu Nov 18, 18:55 25
  - I love her early stuff more than her later stuff - eag Nov 18, 19:02 4
    - Agreed, I like it too. But back in the day, I don't think her longevity was apparent. -- nm - loosilu Nov 18, 19:03 3
      - it's arguable that she was just *handled* really well and then learned from her handlers to handle herself. she's a freaking machine. -- nm - a-maine-da Nov 18, 19:29 2
        
        she had a plan from even before she moved to NYC - giganto Nov 18, 19:31 1
        
        one reads bios of these people and is like, "man, I wonder what really happened." because no way was madge making it based on talent alone. -- nm - a-maine-da Nov 18, 19:32
  - holiday, borderline, lucky star hold up better today than poker face will in 20 years. they still sound as fresh as the day they were made -- nm - giganto Nov 18, 18:58 19
    - None of which, I'm guessing, Madonna actually wrote. nm - Dignan Nov 18, 19:10 16
      - no, she's always been smart enough to sing great songs that other people write - giganto Nov 18, 19:11 15
        
        Well, we're also hearing the discoized arrangement of her songs - if you listen to their acoustic versions their superior pop songs - Reagen Nov 18, 19:26 12
        
        i'd still put madonna unplugged against gaga unplugged any day -- nm - giganto Nov 18, 19:28 8
        
        Did you watch that "pre-gaga" performance that someone posted earlier today? nm - Dignan Nov 18, 19:31 7
        
        here -- (link) - Dignan Nov 18, 19:33 [Backboard] 6
        
        that first part sounds like warmed over norah jones sh!t - giganto Nov 18, 19:42 5
        
        She sings there better than she plays the piano. -- nm - Max Nov 18, 19:55
        
        I think this is as close as you get to swallowing your pride, so I'll consider it a victory. nm - Dignan Nov 18, 19:43 3
        
        it's American Idol level, at best -- nm - giganto Nov 18, 19:45 2
        
        Where Madonna wouldn't make it through the door. nm - Dignan Nov 18, 19:50 1
        
        given the "winners" that AI has produced over it's history, i'm sure she would wear it as a badge of pride -- nm - giganto Nov 18, 20:00
        
        You could almost say that she's...selling out! nm - Dignan Nov 18, 19:27
        
        they're. jeez. -- nm - Reagen Nov 18, 19:26 1
        
        this is what happens when you listen too much. -- nm - Max Nov 18, 19:29
        
        Gaga is an artist (note: I hate her art), Madonna's an entertainer. For me, that's already a (hairy) leg up. nm - Dignan Nov 18, 19:14 1
        
        (Meaning, of course, that I was wrong. They're nothing alike.) nm - Dignan Nov 18, 19:18
    - I think true blue too was an amazing song. so much of what pure pop is now is madonna-esque. - a-maine-da Nov 18, 19:02
    - well, I think we'll have to wait 20 years to know that. -- nm - loosilu Nov 18, 19:00
Some of you may remember that my father never recovered from a fall in an unprotected construction area. While it still appeared he would probably - MojaveMeg Nov 18, 18:49 6
- I don't blame you...glad you can put it behind you now. -- nm - kelly Nov 18, 19:59
- Wow, glad that part of the ordeal is finally over for your family. -- nm - Stephen Nov 18, 19:25
- man, three years. glad for y'all that its over too. -- nm - TFox Nov 18, 18:55
- that's awesome. I'm sure your dad would be happy to know you're getting the settlement. -- nm - loosilu Nov 18, 18:54
- Good News -- nm - amoxy Nov 18, 18:54
- Awesome, time for you to move on from that and remember the good times. -- nm - Redmond Nov 18, 18:51
