    You must honestly believe someone gives a ****.

    I told you a long time ago, Johnny, I don't care about you. I'd have
    to regard you as being worth anything to care about you. I don't...on
    either.

    You have others bouncing around finding information from people in New
    York, Virginia and so on. You haven't named a single piece you've
    done. Baylor doesn't know you. Leonel Williams doesn't know
    you...she's just making noise to impress someone. I've come to the
    conclusion by your listing "rags" that you don't know Billy Gibbons
    (actually it was before then, but we'll put the bar there) and if you
    ever wanted to see him, you'd have to buy a ticket. You don't know
    where he lives and don't know where he hangs out. You have never been
    "pals" with him.

    Here's a hint for you, if you'd get out from behind that computer
    every now and then, you might lose some of that weight you've got
    going...and maybe wouldn't have to resort to making up lies to impress
    washed up barmaids and "webmasters" who have patents on the personal
    computer.

  2. It figures. Why would you know anything about famous Texas music
    musicians ?

    I saw a previous post regarding placing temperature probes inside the
    lids to detect variations in temperatures. Even though it was noted
    that the temperature difference was "insignificant" I'd like to know
    what that figure was.

    Let's say it was 2 ~ 4 degrees difference. In a human being the
    difference between 98 degrees and 102 degrees is pretty serious. If
    you figure that all the heat escapes through your noggin and you have
    increased the temperature by even 2 degrees that's a pretty
    significant difference.

    I can tell a difference if I leave my lid out in the sun, or stick it
    in the shade. A BIG difference. So I always make sure to tuck it in
    the shade. Once I am moving, though, the vents take care of the rest.

    I have a black helmet, BTW. Just make sure that it fits good and has
    a lot of venting and you will be good to go.

    This has become too funny!

    Everyone (other than the two who were intended to fall in it) has been
    running all over the net trying to find some mysterious site listing
    all of John Moron's great "doin's".

    I'm just wondering how me being a network engineer is supposed to
    translate to running around using webpages? Of all the networks I've
    ever worked with, I've never used a webpage to do them.

    IIRC it wasn't even 2 degrees. And, over several repeats, the
    fluctuations between lids balanced out (one higher than the other and
    then vice versa).

  6. that was me.


    you will find my credit under "special thanks to" on the album and at
    the tail of the film.

    "Why was a digital system used for the sound?"
    is printed on the back of the album. here's the answer:

    we layed up three nights live performances from Pantages Theater, doing
    overdubs and sweetening at Ocean Way and then mixed the film at the
    Warner lot in a their big mix theater. typical film mixing at that time
    involved several generation losses with tape/mag stripe/optical
    transfers on Magnatech mechanical sync machines locked to the projector.
    digital audio handled properly doesn't have generation loss. i had the
    first two sony digital multitrack recorders in the US and was called for
    the gig by Gary Goetzman and Jon Demme. My job was to sync the system
    all the way thru post production, moving between the video ref xfers for
    overdubs and then against the film track in the mix theater at Warner,
    then for the final transfer to the optical track.

    it was the first time that had ever been done and a lot of new ground
    was broken on that production. The best thing is that the concept worked
    really well and the sound of the film just blew everyone away. The
    release prints in the theaters were only two generations off the master
    digital mix print, basically lossless from the original show
    recordings: first generation to optical replication master, second
    generation to release print.

    glad you liked it. we did too.

    I haven't looked. I haven't cared to look. Once again, Johnny Moron, I
    don't regard you as anything I'd care about. I told you in the
    beginning that I won't be one of the one's who'll jump through hoops
    trying to "track down" anything you want me to. I'll just sit back and
    laugh while you post crap that others point out is false. Where they
    miss the areas of interest, I'll be sure to point out for them.
    Not too much of "pals" then. Kind of a one sided "palship", wouldn't
    you say?
    I never made a claim to know where he was. I never even made a claim
    to be "pals" with him...which that was you...and it turned out the
    only way you know of him is what you read in the magazines and on a
    website...that you wrote.

    You're an idiot.

    Whoa... who determined the USA as being the country designated to be the
    policeman of the world.. If Iraq was such a danger to Israel .. why didn't
    Israel do it.?. Their military is/was far superior to the Iraq military and
    they have the military strength.. I agree with your rationalization to a
    point, beyond that, you are making another excuse for the US president to
    declare war on any nation who has a disagreement with his neighboring
    country..

    Evidently .. other civilized and industrialized nations whom we have signed
    pacts and treaties with, disagreed with Bush and his administration, because
    they would not give George Bush and the US, carte blance to attack, invade
    and occupy Iraq..

    Your argument holds merit until it is examined .. Then .. it begins to break
    down as evidenced by the many different reasons that were made for this
    administration to attack Iraq and overthrow the government in power.. As
    each reason was exposed as a lie, our administration smoothly changed gears
    and slid into another one..

    Quite possibly.. this president and his administration could have persuaded
    the world leaders to support this war, if any one of them had been honest
    enough to make the same argument that you are trying to make..
    Questionably.. they chose to lie and deceive with empty and fabricated
    stories that were exposed, one after the other.. Perhaps the reason they
    chose not to try and make your argument was that they knew the facts would
    not support it.. Hmmm.. Decent enough theory, though.. Too bad the
    president never thought to present it to the other Nations of the world that
    we are supposedly in accord with..

    Seems to be some contradiction to what we were being handed as a reason for
    us to attack Iraq.. First of all.. we were told that Iraq was an imminent
    threat to the US and ready to commence building nuclear weapons, to launch
    at our country within 45 minutes.. The "Jews" bombed their nuclear facility
    in "81 ? No threat to the US and merely a "threat" to Israel.. or who ?
    After 12 years of embargoes and after a disastrous rout from Kuwait which
    pretty well decimated his armies.. Saddam Hussein was no threat to anyone
    but himself.. Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and Rice.. all made those statements..
    "he was contained"..
    LOL.. which ones are you referring to and just how significant was their
    help.. I take it.. you are referring to the "coalition of the willing"..
    Better take a close look at the coalition.. Most are made up of
    insignificant little countries who signed on to get the handouts Bush was
    promising for their support.. (most of which hasn't been paid).. Turkey is
    another example.. They refused to allow our military to transport and use
    their country to engage Iraq from it's northern borders.. Why? Bush had
    already reneged on his prior agreement of payment to them and they wanted
    their money up front...
    LOL... that's a wild speculation and it is distracting from the issue..
    We'll never know what Gore would or would not have done.. Quite possibly ..
    his foreign policy would not have been the contributing factor that led us
    to this situation.. We don't know that, do we ?

    Do you think he would
    That comment isn't up to your usual standards, my friend.. No one should be
    "glad" for 911 .. regardless of who the president in office, might be..
    He did "not" persuade anyone.. They voted against him ..
    He could not convince them that Iraq was the threat that his administration
    was claiming.. Since and in hindsight, they were proven to be correct in
    their judgements not to support the US in attacking Iraq.. Each reason and
    argument has been proven to be either fabricated or an outright lie..

    The problem is
    I don't know enough about the Islamic religions to indulge in that
    speculation.. Intolerance isn't only subscribed to in the middle east..
    Seems to me that we have our own share of intolerance (including myself) to
    go around.. One thing is for sure and can't be denied.. This administration
    has failed to perform, as they promised ..Another thing cannot be denied..
    the American taxpayer is suffering the financial burden for this idiocy and
    the financial fortunes of Halliburton and other defense and oil industry
    conglomerates are prospering at the taxpayers expense..

    Seems that we are almost on the same page, but not quite.. We are paying
    that bill because our administration could not persuade the leaders of the
    significant countries to endorse this war.. The significant beneficiaries
    all seem to be the corporate interests with the closest ties to members of
    our administration.. In addition . they all seem to be significant
    contributors to this administration and have gained favorable legislation
    that is at the expense of the taxpayer..

    The world has become much too small for any administration to isolate the US
    and unilaterally make decisions that affect the rest of the world ..
    Christianity is not at issue, here.. I'm not even sure that Islam is.. what
    is the issue would more importantly be what is right and wrong.. Preachers
    on the pulpit should not be engaging in the political directions to their
    congregations..When that happens, we are regressing in the history of the
    world and inviting intolerance that led to the Inquisition Period..

    One cannot put on the cloak of christianity when it is convenient and then
    commit atrocities that contradict the precepts of christian religion.. Then
    put the cloak back on to claim their persuasions of any religion.. I am not
    devout.. but I am convinced that God is a presence that cannot be denied..

    A LIE is a LIE.. when one believes a lie, then he believes a liar..
    Politically.. that is a formula leading to dictatorship or at the least, an
    authoritarian governance.. Somehow.. we have forgotten the virtues of
    honesty and allowed ourselves to be deceived by liars and deception.. That
    is not healthy, and it is all our faults..

    We are almost on the same page, again.. Not quite.. I whole heartedly agree
    that it is going to take a new president to straighten out this mess that
    Bush and the likes of Tom DeLay have made of our government.. It will take
    many years and lots of dedication from our government and our people to turn
    this disgraceful four years around..

    I have difficulty supporting a fat cat
    Hmmm.. better take a look at who the man was representing against those
    insurance companies.. I'd much rather support the man who has fought and won
    over the insurance companies, than the man who defends insurance companies
    at all of the taxpayers and/or victims expense.. Doesn't seem to be a
    problem supporting a President who has failed in business at the expense of
    investors who believed in him.. Nor.. a vice president who has prospered and
    made millions by running a company that has defrauded our government of
    billions of taxpayer dollars.. Give me a lawyer who is on my side rather
    than some corrupt political hack who is on the side of the corporations who
    are in my pocket.. Huh?

    I have not heard kerry say what he is planning to do.

    You haven't heard Kerry speak, then.. maybe you are just not paying
    attention.. He is addressing the issues that plague us at every turn.. He
    spoke at Houston a few months back and gave us a pretty good look at his
    vision for America.. During this political campaign, there is a lot of
    rhetoric.. Better get informed well .. before this November election.. There
    isn't really much choice.. If you believe that this first four years has
    been bad, wait until Bush gets a shot at the next four..

    I can
    Again.. these guys are politicking hard.. Damn right.. they will be
    hammering on every fault that Bush has shown during this disasterous term in
    office.. Hopefully.. we contributed to the platform that Kerry will run on..
    while we spent that week in Houston a couple of weeks ago..

    He better come up with something else or he will
    There seems to be enough resentment over the performance of Bush since 2001,
    that Kerry has a very good chance of winning this election..It is still a
    long time till November.. Who knows what can happen til then..

    If he wins, he better win big and not slup over like bush in 2000.

    There is no way to predict the winning margin.. Hopefully Bush will be
    defeated so badly that the humiliation will discourage anyone named Bush to
    ever run for public office again..
    LOL... Sean Hannity.. Bill O'Reilly.. Rush Limbaugh.. Dick Cheney ...Tom
    DeLay... etc.. etc.. What the hell do you believe these guys have been doing
    for years.??
    Now there is an idea that never occured to me, Beemer.. Maybe we could
    collaborate just a bit.. Pitch in a few bucks apiece, advertise that we have
    a couple of camcorders to loan out.. Who knows.. we might make a veritable
    fortune, there... LMAO..

    Bill, have you had an opportunity to make an appointment to see a
    psychiatrist? I really wish you would soon so you would stop these
    ravings of a lunitic. Or perhaps you were dropped on your head as a
    kid, maybe you ate lead paint chips? Regardless, you really should
    seek help immediately. By the way, you and your crazy demon spawn are
    both cowards. Noey Showey at Kmartie

    This AGV ff helmet I have is the first one I've owned. After Arais,
    Nolans, Bells, and a bunch of others over the year, I was surprised at
    what AGV brought to the table at that price point.
