Pete, thanks for the reply and happy holidays to you and yours. I honestly think that in this song, the emotional overrides the physical. The verses you quoted, while dripping with imagery. are just a long metaphor to convey the not only barren , but searing emptiness that life can deal you. Hence the line "I received your letter yesterday, about the time the doorknob broke" "When you asked how I was doing, was that some kind of joke?" Again, just one mans opinion. Maybe this version can provide a bit of clarification. https://www.youtube....h?v=TMz0iOTfjmM

Merry Christmas everyone

Defensive holding and PI calls- I, for one, cannot believe what has become of this game. So many of these calls are utter nonsense. I know, offense = ratings= money but good God. The DB's are targeted before the play even starts. Honorable mention- Thursday football. How the players union agreed to this is amazing. 3 days off to rest and prepare? No wonder the games usually suck.

Sly Santana Jimi CSNY Joe Being a major Deadhead, I hate to leave them off the list but it wasn't their weekend. Sly hit his musical peak in one glorious night for the world to see. A performance of a lifetime. Santana just crushed it. Great story about how Carlos took some Mescaline and as it took hold, they told him it was showtime. "What? we don't go on for hours" he said (they were originally slotted later) "Well then", he was told "You go now or not at all." "Ummm...ok" lol.

Well, I can help here. To me (mind you) it's about hitting a personal bottom. Arrived at through circumstance or by your own hand. Hence the brilliant twist at the end "Don't send no more letters no, not unless you mail them from Desolation Row." To wit, the character in the song is essentially saying "Don't even try to talk to me if you've haven't been through it as well" It's more an emotional state than a physical reality. Just my thought on it.

AFLAC spot. Love her look. Out of focus, yes, yummy? I'm willing to wager yes as well.

OK, call me creepy but the out of focus dark haired girl at 0:09 is stunning lol.

Big ups to X! Stay strong brother!

Boys, boys, boys! Relax with some holiday cheer:

Same here lol. I guess, at the end of the day. I'm a man without a country.

And of course this classic:

Let me just say that I had no belief in any of this until about a year and a half ago. Through my sister, I met a couple with a beautiful little 8 yo girl. They told me that she often talks about how she was killed in London during the Germans bombing in WWII. She provided such incredible detail, to the date mind you, that they Googled it. She either knows her history or she was there, her parents say. Freaky indeed.

I believe that was called "Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things." Saw it on WOR maaaaany years ago.

Howard destroys Will and family NSFW language.

I posted this in another thread but if you think the pictures of "Johnny Football" are funny, you'll find this hilarious! FF to the 31:00 mark. Enjoy! http://philhendriesh...show&Itemid=829

HILARIOUS discussion on what awaits "Johnny Football" Starts at the 31:00 mark http://philhendrieshow.com/free-stuff/world-of-phil-podcast/item/65060-episode-#269-the-new-phil-hendrie-show&Itemid=829

Best show in Buffalo. No contest...way better than the garbage on GR.

Wow. I dated a girl who hailed from Sydney. She was something. This does not surprise me at all. The Aussies are fun loving people. S*** happens.

Thanks Very. Same to you and yours!!!!

IDK how I had the patience....just a kid I guess

Open air all the way. Dome's take all the charm out of it.

Any way this gets flexed to NBC?

Well done John and good for your kid. You raised him right.

God, this is ridiculous. Was Spygate real? Of course it was. Just ask Mike Martz about installing plays they never ran in the season during the walk through on Saturday before SB36 and somehow the Pats knew what was coming. That being said, there is no doubt that they are the best coached team in the NFL year after year. Not to mention, they have one of the best money QB's ever. I hate them too but there is no denying how good they are. Don't worry....they'll lose to GB in the SB.

Ummm What? Did you not get the point of the article was the atmosphere of intimidation and institutional denial that exists at UVA? She's obviously traumatized and has received some bad advice. She should have gone to the police that night.
