Over the weekend, we stopped at a small place in the town my husband works in, Oneonta NY. I had seen a sign saying that they sell 45's and 33's, so of course, I had to see the place. It was a crudhole, vinyls on shelves and in bins all over the place. Most of them weren't even sorted out! They also sell cassettes and movies. For some unGodly reason, I started searching through the vinyls, looking for some treasures. I already got rid of my WHOLE DD vinyl collection when they made RCM, and swore off buying any more. Well, I've found a couple of DD records, SATRT and Arena with the original booklet, so I figured I'd be satisfied with those. Nope. I found Andy's "Thunder" vinyl, another copy of SATRT, and Notorious. I hadn't even gone through a third of what was on the shelves! I bought the Thunder and SATRT copies, and left Notorious behind. What the hell is wrong with me? Why do I have this compulsion to buy DD vinyls when I see them? Believe me, I have to fight myself from getting back on Ebay to replace what I got rid of in the first place. When they started talking about making AYNIN as a vinyl, I got happy about it. After all this band has put us through, why do I still want to buy these things? Well, at least I'm not buying the shitty stuff.

Nice! I'd like a car like that.
Oh, look at the mountains in the background, I miss the hills. Not the hillbillies, but the hills...

Thanks guys. My poor little Ford Focus wagon is an 05, only about 53000 miles on it, but it was going to need MAJOR money put into it. We knew we were going to need an all wheel drive car for this area, since my front wheel drive Ford doesn't like snow or wet roads. So it was a choice between buying a new car, or putting major money into the old one.
I'm thinking of asking for more of those paper mats for the inside, so I can keep the floors clean. I've washed this car twice since we got it, and it's raining AGAIN today! I"m not going to ruin this car! Besides, this is the closest thing I"ll ever get to a Corvette that I've been dreaming of. I never thought of myself as the type to own a red car, but this color wasn't too bright, and hell.... with all the features in it, why not? Bluetooth, satellite radio, GPS navigation, climate control, and moonroof. If we had to go into debt for another car, it might as well be a nice one.
Yeah, the mountains here are great, and I"ll post more pics when the trees and grass are actually green. It looks depressing with everything brown and lifeless right now.

it'd be kinda cool if they made floor mats with duran duran heads and faces on 'em...then you could ground in the dirt and still keep your car virtually clean...

I was thinking of seeing if there was a place that would print RCM toilet paper so we could have something good to wipe with, but I figured that DD would find out that RCM was making them MORE money and not see the humor in it.
Wet... yes, raining here AGAIN today! Geez!!!!

If DD wants to make money, they should take a page out of Gene Simmons' handbook and what he did with KISS. Anything you can think of, it probably has a KISS logo on it.
So, don't laugh:: DD wipes would probably do well with moo-cows, hard cores, etc., and others looking for a joke. And how much more $$ would that give them?

Hey, if Ramona is weird enough to keep John Taylor photos in her bathroom, anything's possible.

Nick should start a line of vegetarian snack foods. It would sell like crazy. Think of all the soccer moms packing their kids' school lunches!

Let's see, what would DD be able to sell individually to fans ( I mean things that would represent who the person is).
Of course, we'd need Kling's "Nick Sticks"..... the vegetarian snacks.
John's product would be "Juicy Moussie", his own line of mousse for men's hair, scented like a mainly version of a Juicy cologne.
Simon's would have to be his own travelling sewing kit for when you bust out your pants onstage. Throw a stapler and some extra staples in a small bag and call it "LeBon's LeKit".
Roger.... he could make a man's version of a home ovulation kit to test men's sperm counts for fertility. Let's see, "You Only Need One Hand For This".
