    Right now, I LOVE PCGS. They rock! They are the best! Nobody compares! Top of the heap!

    At least until my next submission results post.

    That is one fine icon, Russ. I'll be a sport and trade you that very coin for your DCAM68 1964 Kennedy. What do ya say?

    I'm mad because I didn't have a good idea for a new icon.
  • RussRuss Posts: 48,514 ✭✭✭
    Clank,

    I'll certainly give your proposal all the consideration that it merits.

  • I just saw Tim Robbins whinning and sniveling how he is being abused by the press by his ant-war stance.

    I'm not mad about, I just find it, well, hilarious.

  • What I think is funny is how it was alright to have that opinion before the war, but now if you still feel that way it makes them look like they are against Iraqi people or people in general having freedom and being free from oppression and torture, etc. image

    I'm actually mad as a hatter, but don't let the word get out.

    What about this quote from the movie "Network"?

    I don't have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It's a depression. Everybody's out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel's worth. Banks are going bust. Shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in the street and there's no one anywhere that seems to know what to do with us. Now into it. We know the air is unfit to breathe, our food is unfit to eat, and we sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had 15 homicides and 63 violent crimes as if that's the way it's supposed to be. We know things are bad. Worse than bad. They're crazy. It's like everything everywhere is going crazy so we don't go out anymore. We sit in a house as slowly the world we're living in is getting smaller and all we say is, "Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my toaster, and TV, and my steel belted radials and I won't say anything." Well I'm not going to leave you alone. I want you to get mad. I don't want you to protest. I don't want you to riot. I don't want you to write to your congressman because I wouldn't know what to tell you to write. I don't know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crying in the streets. All I know is first you've got to get mad. You've got to say, "I'm a human being. God Dammit, my life has value." So, I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window, open it, and stick your head out, and yell, "I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore!" I want you to get up right now. Get up. Go to your windows, open your windows, and stick your head out, and yell, "I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!" Things have got to change my friends. You've got to get mad. You've got to say, "I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!" Then we'll figure out what to do about the depression and the inflation and the oil crisis. But first get up out of your chairs, open your window, stick your head out and yell, "I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!"

    oh yeah mr-eureka? well how about THIS!

    Here in my car
    I feel safest of all
    I can lock all my doors
    It's the only way to live
    In cars

    Here in my car
    I can only receive
    I can listen to you
    It keeps me stable for days
    In cars

    I just did the math on my new "ideal" collection that's going to take me 25 years to build. It comes to
    $6,765,045,983,234,381.01. That's without upgrades, and Mr. Pogue accepting my offer.
    Collecting since 1976.
