  1. I guess we have a few troublemaking kids, too. And...it's not even GroundHog's day Elementary students try to hijack school bus Friday, January 21, 2005 Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Three 11-year-old boys and a 10-year-old girl tried to hijack their school bus near Punxsutawney this morning. State police said the four hatched the plot yesterday. Just after 8 a.m. today, one of the boys pulled a knife from a book bag and held it near another student. He demanded driver Janet McQuown, 52, stop and get off the bus. http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/05021/446225.stm

  3. Thanx for the post and welcome to BK. Sounds like a great show
  4. Geoff Gilmore, Director of the Sundance Film Festival, is understandably enthusiastic. After months on the road, he and his team of programmers recently unveiled the roster of films that will screen at the most important festival in the United States. The lineup sets the agenda for the year; the vast majority of the independent films and documentaries that will be released in theaters throughout 2005 will debut between January 20 - 30 in Park City, UT. This year is a bit different though, according to Gilmore. He boldly claimed that this is the best list of films to screen at Sundance in years. "I have never been as excited about a competition that we have had in my 15 years of running this festival," Gilmore explained, during a recent conversation. A total of 120 feature films will unspool at Sundance '05, the highest profile screening in one of fou competitive sections. The most anticipated titles will screen for the first time anywhere — there are 87 world premieres and many lack distribution — so buyers will be bidding to buy the hottest films and get them on their release slates.

  5. Very cool. Amber, you're a saint!
  6. BEST DAYS OF THEIR LIVES Pupils at a comprehensive school are considering themselves the luckiest 12-year-olds in Britain after all homework was scrapped for them. The head called homework a "dinosaur" and insists the move will encourage students to "love learning for its own sake". Dr Patrick Hazlewood told the Daily Telegraph he thinks pupils should "manage their own learning". http://www.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30000-13286954,00.html

  8. Friday, January 21, 2005 · Last updated 2:22 p.m. PT Student sent home for inappropriate shirt THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LONGVIEW, Wash. -- An openly gay high school student was sent home to change after he wore a shirt that said "Too Gay To Function" during homecoming week. Billy Zepeda, a senior at R.A. Long High School, decorated the lime green shirt with marker-drawn rainbows and wrote the phrase from the teen movie "Mean Girls" on the front. He wore it Thursday during the school's make-your-own-shirt day. A teacher told him the shirt was inappropriate and offensive to homosexuals, said Zepeda, 17. http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/aploca...A%20Gay%20Shirt
  9. Woohoo, RB. Pre-congrats :good job: :hyper:
  10. On second thought, you are probably right. Next thing you know the Christain Right would be placing adds dissing Sponge Bob http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2005/01/20/...l?oneclick=true
  11. Lots of ideals and no specifics--that's what his speech meant. "Peace to the world ASAP even if it means having war to get it" :(
  12. Do you have a link to a website or a download so we can hear them and comment? Glad to see you post :scratchin:
  13. Kind of silly - if it was good enough for The Onion, it should have been good enough for Rolling Stone - it was just an ad
  14. Refried Boogie was a dance anthem for the party animals at the time.
  15. Try one of the lyric's serch engines in the lyrics (poets) forum
  16. WASHINGTON, Jan. 21 - Michael K. Powell will step down today as chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, officials there said, ending a four-year term that was marked by the tightening of standards on decency and attempts to loosen restrictions on media ownership. http://www.nytimes.com/2005/01/21/business...pynXOtXxVdYoV4g
  17. Here's another great 60's band from San Francisco--Canned Heat were one of the most popular blues rock acts at the time and this was their best work by far and one of my own personal favorites. This double album, which was released in 1968, featured 10 tracks including the Top 40 hit 'Going Up The Country' and a 41 minute live version of 'Refried Boogie' (Parts 1 & 2). A UK label remastered this classic in 2003 and its still available through Amazon and you should have it in your collection.
