Don't be in a rush to pay off your bets early. That waste of oxygen Mike Shula got Bama to 9-0, as you recall. Don’t be in a rush to pay off your bets early.

I still delivered a reasonable measure of snark. :) BamaDan: I'm good, man. Really. If they were doing what Cheap Trick historically does and going out and playing 80% of the new album, then I'd work a lot harder to get there. But what they're doing instead is a show--essentially intact--that I've already seen three times. Only "Modern Day Delilah" has even appeared in the set to date, and as it's still being billed as the Alive 35 tour, there's little reason to expect a big change anytime soon. Glad you guys had fun at U2. I know that's a special band for you and Mrs. BD, and glad the timing was such that she could actually enjoy it (a window that's rapidly closing). Actually I guess I'm surprised "Pride" ever leaves the set list. Alex: Welcome, and I'm very sorry to hear that. I would have hoped that by now a former protégé would have thrown her down the Death Star reactor shaft to evanesce in a cloud of her own evil. Stay away from her if you can.

I had Dr. Susan Kray as well. She's currently teaching at Indiana State University... just for your info. I got here through Google. I had Dr. Susan Kray as well.

Dunno if I can stand months of you going on about them, but I think you are destined. Off topic, U2 show in Atlanta was great. Awesome spectacle by a truly professional band. Irony noted by Amy that they did not play "Pride" in MLK's city. Oh well, play "Sunday, Bloody Sunday" and act Irish, dammit! Dude, you gotta take yourself to the KISS concert.
