Cool movie & damn funny in bits.  If you like Liv Tyler, this is a must see, she is just so appealing.

But Dave copped in advance to this, so Reg is not twice psychic. yet.

Adam Schlesinger, also in Ivy.  He got an Academy Award nomination out of this song.

and here's john (cougar mellen) camp.


first time i noticed the clave in this song.


I saw the clave first.

Actually, this is one of those automated percussion instruments that always play at exactly the right time.  You've heard of it.  It's an autoclave.

Ick.  Here's my WOS, by a longshot.  Ironic.  No, Alanis.  It's not ironic.  That's not irony.  It's just dumb luck.  Go back to the theater.  I'll see you there.

it was a rough year. every song from alanis' album charted. almost. jars of clay was as close as pop came to hard rock. unless candlebox had a song that year. besdies, who listens to lyrics? i would never have known it was christian rock if i hadn't seen them on a christian music channel. the song is dope. listen to those cymbals and strings!

Whew! Sorry I'm late...

BOS Liv Tyler

This "Isn't It Ironic" song? Is actually filled with coincidences as opposed to "ironies". I learned that on 'Pop-Up Videos'.

I just don't care about Eric Clapton. There. I said it.

Heh-heh. "auto-clave".

John Travolta is a higher-level Operating Thetan than Tom Cruise.
