damn... now I wanna get that DVD. I saw it on VHS... but that'd be cool.

If you haven't seen Almost Famous and you plan on writing--it's worth your time.

I've seen bits of it....the movie with the rock band reporter kid, right?

You have to make your reputation on being honest-----




and unmerciful.

The singin' isn't the point. The guy had balls. He intentionally made a fool of himself.... to show her that he liked her. She knew he was bein' stupid... and he knew it too, but it didn't matter. He made his point.

Loosely based on the life and times of a young Cameron Crowe.

Beware, beware of Rolling stone magazine because they will change your story----

So Michael... I know you're a sports writer (from readin' the board) Who are ya? If you dont mind me askin'

I started as a sportswriter years ago, but now sport writing is secondary--The news organization I write for (The Landmark) likes to give what I term "alternative" coverage on the Chiefs.

Both in print and on the web.

My passion is pop culture and politics.

I think I just figured it out.

I know why I didn't go to the party.

There were girls there.

You seem to not realize the most important thing here:

YOU ALREADY KNOW YOU ARE A NERD!

Nerds who know they are nerds are the most dangerous nerds there are! They'll come running into a party with reckless abandon because, what's the worst that can happen? They're already a nerd. No matter how big a fool they make of themselves they can only go up!

Seriously though, reading this thread kind of makes me wonder about all those people I've known in my life that just never seemed to make it to the party, and nobody ever really got to know them. I wonder how many of them were as paralyzed by fear.

I'm usually fairly apprehensive about going to a social event with lots of people I don't really know. It's usually worth it though. You can't just let life pass you by.

that kinda sums it up

Yes, it was just the girls.

NEXT TIME, I CRASH THAT MOTHERfuckER! REVENGE OF THE NERD! :cuss:

He's right... plus he has a nice ass.
