I sincerely appreciate the thought, Mark.  |  IP: Logged Paul Mayer Oh get out of it Melvin, before it pulls you under! Posts: 3836 From: Albuquerque, NM Registered: Feb 2000 posted 09-03-2009 10:54 PM                        Me too, Tim - sorry to hear about a divorce. As a kid I got to see several of them up close. Not fun even when both sides agreed on things. My dad finally got the hang of it (marriage) by his fourth try. Mom never did get the hang of it, even after four tries. Tim, I wish you all the best!  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 09-03-2009 11:02 PM                     quote: William T. Parr Whats wrong with Neil? He has some good tunes. Esp. his 1966-68 stuff -"Red red Wine" "The Boat that I Row", "I'm a Believer" .. et.al. ... Even the "E.T'" song with Streisand in 1982 was a good duet song. -Monte  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-03-2009 11:36 PM                        quote: -A restaurant closes at 10:00. You arrive at 9:40. The staff are already vacuuming and scrubbing the floors in an attempt to hurry out the doors. They certainly do not look thrilled to see you. That is a good one. I HATE THAT. If you want to close at 9:30, freakin' close at 9:30, but don't advertise 10:00 and then start saying "The grill is off" at 9:30. About Neil Diamond: His best two recordings ever are "Cherry Cherry" and "Holly Holy" (the versions from the "Hot August Night" album). Thanks for allowing me to clear that up.  |  IP: Logged Chris Slycord Film God Posts: 2986 From: 청주시, 경북도, South Korea Registered: Mar 2007 posted 09-04-2009 01:13 AM                     I like his song "Kentucky Woman" and especially the cover version by Deep Purple.  |  IP: Logged Andy Bajew Expert Film Handler Posts: 136 From: Bellaire, Texas Registered: Jun 2009 posted 09-04-2009 01:54 AM                     quote: Mike Blakesley About Neil Diamond: His best two recordings ever are "Cherry Cherry" I used to drive to my moms house daily and this song would come on the radio every single day on my way there, and eventually after a few weeks I never heard it again! This is without a doubt Neil Diamond's best song, or at least my favorite!  |  IP: Logged Sally Ann Burgess Expert Film Handler Posts: 120 From: Queenstown, New Zealand Registered: Apr 2008 posted 09-04-2009 02:12 AM                     As Bill Murray said in What About Bob..."There are two types of people in this world: Those who like Neil Diamond, and those who don't" My dad took us all to see The Jazz Singer when my brother and I were kids and we suffered the album every single day for weeks after. We couldn't talk at dinner while the album was on or we got "the look" Sorry Neil Diamond. But I don't like you.  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 09-04-2009 06:03 AM                     I can understand "the Jazz Singer (1980)" - some songs that were in that film can crawl on you horribly at times (and I ran that movie for 6 weeks in a house with no port glass. Thus definitely had to hear everything...) and the film wasn't the knockdown boxoffice draw at the time either .. But give Neil a fair shake with his more famous hit tunes. The soundtrack to "ANNIE" was the one that I hated terribly. Sorry to see John Huston waste his talents on such a drab movie - and I had to run that one, half the summer of 82 as well .. and listen to it.. that was terribly insane .. Sally hates Neil Diamond as much as I intolerate the "Osbutts" (Osmonds,) esp Donny Osmond in those early days .... -Monte  |  IP: Logged Mark Lensenmayer Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1605 From: Upper Arlington, OH Registered: Sep 1999 posted 09-04-2009 03:07 PM                     Neil Diamond's Best Song = "I Am I Said"  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 09-04-2009 06:58 PM                        Another one: -When someone can't finish all of their meal or whatever they are eating and asks me if I want it.

I usually just go to Outback Steakhouse or Lone Star. Haven't tried any others that I can remember.  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 09-04-2009 09:54 PM                     Texas Roadhouse is the bomb for good steaks though ... But, wouldn't kick OUTBACK out the back door either with their steak menus ... Tough decision there ...  |  IP: Logged Kurt Zupin Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 989 From: Maricopa, Arizona Registered: Oct 2004 posted 09-04-2009 10:13 PM                     Texas Roadhouse is the best place to get a steak. Its cheaper and better then Outback. Two can eat a Roadhouse for $35 bucks and the same two will eat at Outback for $45  |  IP: Logged
