Get to know your fellow board members....

[downingthief]

Hahaha, that is lame and funny combined. What was your response?

Did you feel like Mark Wahlberg's character in the movie "Rock Star".

MY GF at the time was standing right there, so it was a bit awkward. I think I said something along the lines of, "Thanks. My GF seems to like the way I play".

[downingthief]

Thanks for answering my questions. I like Last Goodbye too. And yeah I agree that girl's pickup line is a little embarrassing. But then again, most "pickup lines" are. Also I just read through the last 10 pages or so of the thread. I can't believe I missed Corinna's week! Unacceptable.

Sean, if you could be born with a prominent birthmark in the shape of a continent on your face, which continent would it be?

Sean, which Coachella board member do you imagine (or know) to be the most different in person?

Sean, do you remember any of your teachers from elementary school?

Sean, you have been appointed the new editor in chief of a major newspaper. In addition to the normal stuff (business, sports, arts, etc), which new section do you choose to create and who do you hire to write it?

I would have to say Australia. Cause it's the smallest. I like the accents, too.

Amy!! That was easy.

I remember all of my teachers. It's quite scary. The one I will mention here was Mrs. Smith. She was my 6th grade teacher. She was Italian, with a thick accent. She was older, and had this freakishly large backside. So, she didn't walk; she kind of waddled. I liked her though. She would tell us stories from Greek myths.

I would choose to create a random section. Every week, it was something else. One week it would be French Art (you would run that one, Courtney!), and the next week it would be all about baking pies (Alma). Whoever I felt was the "expert" in that subject would run it for the week.

DT, if allowed to go back in time to see 3 things in history happen (concerts count), what things would you like to have witnessed?

[allyjoy]

[LooseAtTheZoo]

A man comes to you with a business proposition. You have the 5 million dollars needed to fund the venture. The business will be highly successful and make you extremely wealthy. However, you will go down in history as a horrible person who perpetuated human rights abuses through your company. Your name becomes synonymous with malice and greed.

Knowing that, do you still fund this mans business venture?


Who's up next? Pick me...

[fiyahhh!]

Where's the thief?

[boarderwoozel3]

People are celebrating with the family yo!

[downingthief]

DT, if allowed to go back in time to see 3 things in history happen (concerts count), what things would you like to have witnessed?

Sorry for the delay! Fun with he family, and all.

This is a great question. I love history, so very hard to nail down.

Music related, I would say I would want to go back in time and see the Beatles. Not at a big venue, but at a small club when they were starting out. Knowing how they turned out, seeing them in their early stages would be amazing.

I'm a big Civil War buff, so I would want to go back in time and sit on the hill watching the battle of Bull Run, as some people did. Little did they realize how long, and how siginificant that war would become.

Last, I would want to go back and travel along side Ernest Hemingway. I am a fan of his writing ( I know most aren't). The guy went everywhere, did everything, and met everyone there was to meet at the time. Plus, having a conversation with they guy would be quite interesting.

Honestly, no. I couldn't do it. Money to me is not worth sacrificing your principles.


I have no problem with the Gonshman nomination. Anyone second?

[downingthief]

Where's the thief?

Sorry...was with the family and all. We hosted T-giving at our pad, and then I spent the entire day yesterday picking up, etc.

[frozen pilgrim]

all your base, shut the fuck up, nobody's asking you anything.

[All Your Base]

That's friendly.

[TommyboyUNM]

I think what frozen pigrim meant to say was:

All Your Base, while we appreciate the introduction, that's not what this thread is intended for. Good to meet you, but please read the thread before posting. Thank you and I hope the holidays are going well for you.

Sorry. Read the title, and didn't bother to read ALL 47 pages of it. Point taken.

Out.

[BROKENDOLL]

Now, Pilgrim, be nice. all your base is just another old person new to the board...

[BROKENDOLL]

Here, all your base, follow me...I'll show you to the senior section. You can sit next to me if you want.

[All Your Base]

It's all good. I'm old enough to have dumped all my angst, but I can remember. I should have read the thread.....and he did turn me on to Shpongle.

[kitt kat]

So who's next?

[allyjoy]

I have no problem with the Gonshman nomination. Anyone second?

Dictatorship, DT. No seconds needed. The power is yours and yours alone to pick the next person.

but... that doesn't happen until tomorrow so...

Batman or Superman?

You have to fight in a cage match to the death with one leader from history (you're guaranteed to win). Who do you battle with, why & what's your finishing move?

What is the one lesson you learned that you don't want your kids to learn the hard way?

[boarderwoozel3]

You get to create a super band drawing from any musician ever. Who plays what and what is it's sound?

[LooseAtTheZoo]

In the cartoon vein:

Jack Nicholson Joker or Heath Ledger Joker, and why?

Also: You re going to live in a one room house for the rest of your life, completely separated from the world in all possible ways. Where do you choose for this house to be built in nature?

[apostle2]

you are stuck in a solid metal house with no doors and no windows, with only a mirror and a wooden dresser inside. how do you escape?

Batman! Superman's a pussy.

Hitler, because I cannot think of any other leader in history that is synonymous with all that is evil.
My finishing move would be bleaching his moustache, and sticking him in the heart with a nice pointy Star of David.

Lesson. Wow...another good question. I would say be careful with money, and spend it wisely. I got myself in trouble at a young age with debt, and it took a long time to recover.

your knowledge of History needs a little brushup... please read up on Himmler and do a one page book report

[downingthief]

Nice!

Let's see...on drums, Ginger Baker. Lead guitar, Jimi Hendrix. Rhythm guitar & various instruments, Johnny Greenwood. Keyboards and piano, Richard Wright. Vocals and Guitar, Jeff Buckley.

Sound: Psychaedelic, Bluesy, Progressive, Folk, Trippy, Soul.

That's tough, because I think that both intrepretations were excellent. I am leaning towards Jack. Mainly because I think his interpretaion was closer to the original character. More humor, gags, etc. Ledger was brilliant, though.

Definitely on the coast somewhere. On a cliff, overlooking the ocean. Warhington, or Oregon in the US. Ireland, or Spain elsewhere.

Without Hitler, there would be no Himmler.

[bug on your lip]

which one had actual blood on his hands?

[wmgaretjax]

I'm bummed I haven't stepped into this thread until now. lots of good stuff in here.

[downingthief]

Hopefully the mirror is large enough that when I break it, there are some good pieces to cut with. If not, I think I am fucked.
