Default I had to laugh....

I just saw this commercial, which shows this lady, using what looked like an old iBook, possibly a macbook, complaining about her email. All of the sudden, THE BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH....ON A MAC!!! Turns out the ad was for some generic anti-virus software....I think it's a conspiracy by PC builders to mislead the public.. LMAO!

Speaking of funny commercials, I could have sworn I saw a cell phone commercial with Meat Loaf singing. Couldn't tell for sure, but don't think he was singing Hot Petootie. Oh well.

hey, it's possible. there is a really nasty virus out there for macs that causes bluescreens, eats up a huge part of your hard drive, and even lets other viruses and spyware in. the worst part is some people actually HAVE to have it.

you may have heard of it; it's called "windows".

It was not funny. It was kind of pathetic. Meatloaf used to kick a$$ and now he is parodying his song for a go phone.

Either that or I am a geek for thinking that Meatloaf used to be cool.

You are a geek for thinking Meatloaf used to be cool. You are also a geek for holding Meatloaf to such high fan expectations. It is disappointing, but so is getting older, and seeing many of the faces from the past trying to make a buck off of their past laurels.

Don't downplay Meatloaf's role in RHPS. Come on...that should carry him through at least a couple of decades at least.

He will go on. I can't escape RHPS every July 4th since Barry Bostwick hosts the DC fireworks.

I love the following:

"Whatever happened to Saturday night?
When you dressed up sharp and you felt alright
It don't seem the same since cosmic light
Came into my life, I thought I was divine
I used to go for a ride with a chick who'd go
And listen to the music on the radio
A saxophone was blowing on a Rock and Roll show
We climbed in the back seat, really had a good time
Hot patootie, bless my soul
Really love that Rock and Roll"
