Originally Written 15 September 2005
News: I came up with the idea for a Role-Playing Game, like the Sims, but Text-based and Forum-Style, in which the player is in a college with a rock star.
The Rules would be:
1) If someone has already been taken, pick someone else.
2) You may have a non rock star provided that he or she is of the opposite sex and your rock star roommate isn't.
3) design your room to your roomie's (or roomies') and your tastes and describe them on this thread.
4) Look through your music collection if you have trouble finding a suitable roomie.
5) There is no rule 5.
6) Your roomie don't nessicarily have to be alive.
These were from the original thread on The Pink FLoyd Fan Network that I started. The original 5th rule was that Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Ozzy osbourne were exempt from roommate status (because they kicked their original member-roommate out of their original room.)
Anyway, The Dorm building is of a Frank-Lloyd Wright style Architecture, with three floors and a basement. each Floor has 15 dorms (except for 14 in the basement), a common room, and a bathroom.
Band Name of the Day: The Wooden Leg Named Smith. This comes from a joke from Mary Poppins , which I haven't seen in years. Anyway, it comes up in a joke between Dick Van Dyke and Ed Wynn. It starts out when Dick Van Dyke says he knows a man with a wooden leg named Smith. Wynn asks, "What's the name of his other leg?". It later appears when the elderly head of the Banking company David Tomlinson's Character works for laughs to death after being told the joke.
Film Idea of the Day: We interrupt this section to bring you this very important message: A lot of people at IMDB.com's forums insist that they will never watch a Woody Allen movie. Why? Because of Woody's relationship with Soon-Yi Previn. She is an adopted college-aged (when the relationship began) daughter of a woman he saw on-off for 10 years from a previous marraige of MIa Farrow (note she was adopted in a previous marraige, neither Woody, Mia, or Her previous husband were biologically related). Mia herself should know about being a girl in her early 20s smitten by a 50-something man. She Married Frank Sinatra in 1966! Anyway, The disproved incest and paedophilia, as well as Mia's own hypocrisy aside, lies one big fact: This does not change the fact that his films are some of the greatest films of all time. This reminds me of the following scene from The Day After Tomorrow:
Jeremy: Friedrich Nietzsche? We can't burn that! He's one of the most important thinkers in 19th Century!
Elsa : Please! Nietzsche was a chauvinist pig who was in love with his sister.
Jeremy: He was not a chauvinist pig!
Elsa: But he was in love with his sister.
Point proven, Doing this to Woody Allen is like changing the radio station every time Michael Jackson is heard on the Radio.
Review of the Day: Somewhere in Time. Christopher reeve stars as a man who, in 1972, recieves a gold watch from an old lady. 8 years after that, He is an accomplished playwright who vacations in a bed and breakfast on Mackinaw Island, and discovers a younger version of the aforementioned old lady. She is a stunning actress played by Jane Seymour, and by going cold Turkey off the modern World, goes back to 1912, when he ultimately meets her, and really starts to hit it off with her until he finds a penny in his pocket. Vintage 1979. This causes his 1912 sequence to be a dream. This gets my vote for Best non-Twilight Zone work by Richard Matheson, based on his novel Bid Time Return.
Quote of the Day: "Thank God I'm an atheist."
