I gotta weigh in on Springsteen because his music is so bi-polar to me. I really like his old stuff, and the rootsy stuff he was doing a couple years ago was terrific. But his commercial stuff is always so disappointing to me ... and that includes his mega album, Born In The USA. I guess he makes a fortune doing his commercial stuff so you can't fault him for that, but I wish he'd listen to his muse more often and his accountant less often.

I didn't get to hear it. I was in the cash cage at Frank Sisson's volunteering for our community association's charity casino gig. I noticed he didn't have any wardrobe malfunctions though at least.

Ha. I really dislike Born in the USA and even wrote my own lyrics to that song just to be silly. I won't post them here but the title is Born in Passaic NJ and you'd kinda have to be from there to understand it. Hopefully you are BORN there, and don't have to live there!

Today I pull up to the exit booth at the airport parking lot anxious to leave because it's almost rush hour. Instead of an attendant there's a note saying 'Back in 3 minutes'. Five minutes later the parking lot donkey returns from what smells like a smoke break. To make matters worse he greets me with, "Thank you for waiting". As I told him, like I had a choice in the matter. While waiting, I was pondering if I could open the window and open the gate in the matter. A couple of more minutes and I'd be past pondering and actually making an attempt.

If the opposite is a 5'4" Grimace like person, then yes. I have a co-worked with a "grimace" body type. Walks like a weeble everywhere.


What ever happened to all the McDonalds characters?

Mayor McCheese, Big Mac, The Fry Guys, etc?

Hope you weren't charged for that smoke break he had. Frankly i'd be reporting that incident to the airport authority.

Nope since I got charged the weekly rate regardless of how long he took to get back to work.

I'll see if the Ottawa airport has an email address I can complain to. I tend to let things like this go if I don't act immediately because anger gives way to laziness.

That Kramer sure is something. He cooked his shirt and jacket in an oven, lol. That's wacky. And then he tries to pay for his calzone with a bunch of pennies and gets chased away by a crazy Italian.

Haha once I start drinking I probably won't be back on here until really late, if at all. Maybe I'll hide my laptop so that when 5am rolls around I can't find it...
