True, but there really wasn't a slur! Anything to grab the reader's attention, I suppose..... - ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/ ====================================== http://www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 15 Aug 2003 20:39:12 +0100 From: "Matt H" Subject: Re: seven-seas OT: =?iso-8859-1?B?oHBvd2Vy?= cut? >I'd try to find a fallout shelter under a mountain, >and a group of females willing to accept me as >a deity and king, so we could restart civilization >together...

Gosh, I wish I'd'a thought of that one! Any of you with rebellious teenaged daughters (that would be about aged nine through thirty) should see the remake of "Freaky Friday" -- though I swear no daughter of mine's going to high school wearing those outfits. It does manage to tame LA CA high school down to something I can believe, unlike Beverly Hills 90120 or whatever the ZIP code is.... In the movie, the daughter is an amazing guitar player in a band, and her band gets into a "Battle Of The Bands" competition sort of thing at the House Of Blues, sponsored by KROQ, of course. All I can say is that it made me wanna be in a band again, and that Jamie Lee Curtis is one hell of a guitar player/actor. I doubt she really knows how to play like that, but she made it look convincing. In the "I fucking hate Dallas" category: I went to the bookstore last night and all these UK rock mags leapt off the shelves and into my arms. What was I to do? One of them is a Radiohead retrospective; the interview was during the Monster tour in '95. "We did a session at this station in Dallas. Natalie Merchant was playing as well, and we walked in and the first thing this woman running it said was 'So, we hear Natalie Merchant's a real bitch.' This is live on the radio. So we said, 'Well, we haven't met her, but we hear *you're* a complete cow,' and it went downhill from there. 'Creep' was the only thing she'd play after that." Hmmmm, wonder why Radiohead aren't playing Dallas? ;-) Also: "Jonny's ambition is to leave America having said "wanker" and "bollocks" on every radio station in the country." - ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/ ====================================== http://www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 15 Aug 2003 21:02:39 +0100 From: "Matt H" Subject: Re: seven-seas OT Friday um...when exactly was this "remake of Freaky Friday" remade?

It's a classic story that most Americans here would have seen as a child. Mother and daughter mysteriously change bodies for a day; mother must now act as daughter, and the other way round. Original had to have been released in the 70s and I believe Jodie Foster played the daughter. The newest version has only been out for a couple of weeks. Oh yeah -- a vicious case of sibling rivalry in there too, should any of you be suffering through *that* joyous experience ;-) - ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/ ====================================== http://www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 16 Aug 2003 09:13:42 +0100 From: "K.P.
