And the proud owner of the only Prince cover better than the original... May I point you in the direction of this quaote from 'the Commitments" Jimmy Rabbitte: Do you not get it, lads? The Irish are the blacks of Europe. And Dubliners are the blacks of Ireland. And the Northside Dubliners are the blacks of Dublin. So say it once, say it loud: I'm black and I'm proud.

The Official *I Love Cleveland* Thread
LOL. I think I was around 17 when Showgirls came out and even as a hormone filled teenage boy I couldn't wait for it to be over. Although part of it was watching Saved By the bell's Jessie Spano (Elizabeth Berkley) whore herself out. It was kind of like going back to your high school reunion and finding out the quiet smart nice girl you were friends with but had lost touch with had ended up a coke head stripper.

The Official *I Love Cleveland* Thread
In the age of the internet, the only reason to subscribe to playboy "IS" the articles ::) . I missed that when I browsed through this month's issue. Playboy has an annoying practice of only putting two pages of an article up front and then placing the remaining text over multiple pages in the back of the magazine, so it's easy to miss an article.

I actually have my wife's Commadore 64 up in our attic begging to be fired up....I am doubting any of the floppy will have lasted this long though. As a kid had a C64 with a paint program that had senstive pad that you plugged in and used aplastic stylus on. Hours of enetertainment when you are 6. Printshop banners on the 9-pin DM printer were the shit. I remember upgrading from the 9 pin to the 21 pin. 1400 baud modem that you set the handset on, Liesure Suit Larry command line games, Much later after that the VGA monitor upgrade that blew my mind that I would just fire up the demo and watch them... But that was then I was facebooking on my ipod last night while I was on the ellipitical machine...Progress, sort of..

Pretty much nailed it. I was conflicted on a few of the answers I might try it again and go the other way to see what the answer turns out. Dreamy Idealist Dreamy Idealist (DI) Dreamy Idealists are very cautious and therefore often appear shy and reserved to others. They share their rich emotional life and their passionate convictions with very few people. But one would be very much mistaken to judge them to be cool and reserved. They have a pronounced inner system of values and clear, honourable principles for which they are willing to sacrifice a great deal. Joan of Arc or Sir Galahad would have been good examples of this personality type. Dreamy Idealists are always at great pains to improve the world. They can be very considerate towards others and do a lot to support them and stand up for them. They are interested in their fellow beings, attentive and generous towards them. Once their enthusiasm for an issue or person is aroused, they can become tireless fighters. For Dreamy Idealists, practical things are not really so important. They only busy themselves with mundane everyday demands when absolutely necessary. They tend to live according to the motto “the genius controls the chaos” - which is normally the case so that they often have a very successful academic career. They are less interested in details; they prefer to look at something as a whole. This means that they still have a good overview even when things start to become hectic. However, as a result, it can occasionally happen that Dreamy Idealists overlook something important. As they are very peace-loving, they tend not to openly show their dissatisfaction or annoyance but to bottle it up. Assertiveness is not one of their strong points; they hate conflicts and competition. Dreamy Idealists prefer to motivate others with their amicable and enthusiastic nature. Whoever has them as superior will never have to complain about not being given enough praise. As at work, Dreamy Idealists are helpful and loyal friends and partners, persons of integrity. Obligations are absolutely sacred to them. The feelings of others are important to them and they love making other people happy. They are satisfied with just a small circle of friends; their need for social contact is not very marked as they also need a lot of time to themselves. Superfluous small talk is not their thing. If one wishes to be friends with them or have a relationship with them, one would have to share their world of thought and be willing to participate in profound discussions. If you manage that you will be rewarded with an exceptionally intensive, rich partnership. Due to their high demands on themselves and others, this personality type tends however to sometimes overload the relationship with romantic and idealistic ideas to such an extent that the partner feels overtaxed or inferior. Dreamy Idealists do not fall in love head over heels but when they do fall in love they want this to be a great, eternal love. Adjectives which describe your type introverted, theoretical, emotional, spontaneous, idealistic, dreamy, effusive, pleasant, reserved, friendly, passionate, loyal, perfectionist, helpful, creative, composed, curious, obstinate, with integrity, willing to make sacrifices, romantic, cautious, shy, peace-loving, vulnerable, sensitive, communicative, imaginative

Cleveland Browns Discussion
Jeez, the only thing more painful than the loss is reading the dot.bomb comments following the write up on the game.... Where were the creative plays this week? I think the Daboll/Mangini duo was trying to make a statement that the Browns could win without resorting to trickiery. Unfortunately we are not there yet, especially being without Cribbs, Fujita and the Right side of the line...

Cleveland Browns Discussion
Needless to say I won't be changing my avatar for a while. It will take several blowouts to get the taste of that game out of my mouth. 6 turnovers and Jacksonville still wins.... Worst part of the game. Rich Gannon saying how he wanted to be in the Jacksonville huddle and take control of the game to beat the Browns..

Super Cleveland
from wiki: Rocky River forms most of its eastern border from Lakewood along the Rocky River bearing its name in the Rocky River Reservation of the Cleveland Metroparks. (A small strip of Cleveland itself directly borders Rocky River, although the two cities are not directly connected by roads.) Lake Erie lines the entire northern border of the city while the city of Fairview Park marks the southern border. To the west, Rocky River's neighbors include the cities of Bay Village on the northern part and Westlake on the southern part.

125lb? Only if I am skeletal and ravaged by cancer. More like 300lbs. I have worked too hard to keep my weight down. Once I am old and don't give a f$&k anymore I am going to eat anything I want. I plan on eating like CDM :)

Grrr. people who don't put the fucking car keys on the key rack by the door and set both sets down in the same random place covered up so I can't find them when it's time to take the kids to school....on the bright side I have already walked 2 miles today. 1 mile of it was carrying a 50lb 4YO.

Cleveland Browns Discussion
I was just reading on Clevelandfrowns that several witnesses are basically saying a drunk tripped behind him and fell on the kid. One witness said the guy had his hands jammed in the pockets ofhis pants and wasn't able to break his fall. That makes a lot more sense to me. Thanks again ESPN.

When/How Often do you take a shower?
If there was a Patrick Dempsey shampoo that gave you his hair, I would buy it. That guy has a thick mane and my wife reminds me of the fact everytime we see him on TV. I'd take Reese Witherspoon's hair too at this point.

When/How Often do you take a shower?
Gillette Fusion ProGlide is where it's at. I used the Mach 3 forever too, and there is a huge difference. I am usually not one to buy into the hype, but I bought one when the promo was cheaper than the Mach 3, and now I am a believer. There was a time in college that I brushed my teeth in the shower too. I am not really sure why...

When/How Often do you take a shower?
AXE in it's self is not evil, but since it's an aerosol is just a more convenient way for teenage boys, guidos and D-bags to do what they have been doing for years. Wearing enough cologne to wilt house plants and make my eyes water.

When/How Often do you take a shower?
Just curious what you are using for a razor. The newest Gillette is awesome, hands down the best shave I have ever have and they last forever if you take care of them . I used to try to shave in the shower too, because my neckline is uber sensitive and prone to nasty razor burn and in grown hairs. But regardless of the mirror I used I always eneded up missing a little piece and that drove me crazy. Since I have started using the new one I have been able to shave at the sink after a shower with no breakout as long as I don't go over 3 days and let the hairs get too long. My beard doesn't grow super fast and I find that if I shave after about a day and a half, I can get a super duper close shave, almost no "shadow".

When/How Often do you take a shower?
Usually twice a day. Everyday in the morning (except on Sunday, I take the sabbath off to bask God's glorius BO JK) and then after I workout, usually at lunch, but sometime in the evening. One of my main reasons for showering in the morning is that I will sweat at night due to being ultra cozy under our bedspread, down comforter, and flannel sheets with the ceiling fan on...

Are you a METROSEXUAL?
That's awesome but for some reason it reminds me of Rocky Horror. It must be the lips...EDIT: It is totally the lips with the teeth, reminds me of the poster and the opening credits... AJ have you tried Spanx(?) Oprah swears by them :)
