BING! ¡Muy bien!
Josep (aka, José) Carreras was born in the same city as a good friend of mine...Barcelona. Thus, his native lanugage is Catalán, not Spanish (Castellano). The differences between the two languages are night and day. It is only slightly reflected in his birth name "Josep" vs. what most outsiders call him; José.
Ooooooh, so close! Off by a mere letter. It is Carreras. -1/3 of a point but given the full point as I like honesty and you should be rewarded, George Washington.
Ok, now how about nationalities. With that I mean what I stated. BIRTH place. I haven't kept up if anyone has declared other nationalities or not, thus the specification.

Oh, Man, as I used to say, Judas Priest is still a Killer band. By the very fact that they are still rockin' is no less than remarkable! Glenn Tipton is still one of my favorite guitarists, talk about an artist! I put the Painkiller video on my iPod and the things he does and the way he plays, is so amazing! Keep Jamming, Judas Priest, even us old timers love you!

Well, perhaps you were enjoying a little of #3 while listening to #1 and #2 sing but, no.
Partial credit. You don't even have the right country with José Cuervo.
That should be for bonus points. Name the countries where they were born.
My spelling sucks but I think they are pavorotti,domingo, and jose Cuervo !

Scary.
It is Ebert, BTW. Siskel died about 10+ years ago.
...not gonna lie, I don't really care for the Beastie Boys but I like that song.
I think I have about 5 of their songs on my iPod.
Still sucks though if for no other reason than his age.
I had a scare about 4 years ago with my saliva gland (right side). I had calcium deposits causing stones
that would block the pathway of the gland. A couple of times my neck looked like it had a baseball stuck in it.
I developed a hard spot and had to have the gland removed and tested for cancer. About the same time I
saw pictures of Siskell (or Ebert)(forget which) some will know who I mean. He just had surgery because of this type of
cancer and his face and neck were f#cked. I was in tears for a couple of days thinking that this was my future and
would I rather be dead? I had the gland removed and the tests came back negative. I still think about it from time
to time especially when I read sh#t like this.

I know someone who died at the age of 42 fo this disease. She had been complaining to dentists about it, thought she must have an abcess. She was diagnosed too late. She lost half her face, half her jaw bone, had to endure skin grafts, and lost half her toungue. She lived cancer free for about two years and when they found it on check up again it was systemic. She died within the year. Very aggresive, very nasty cancer.

Aha! One of them has woken up from his slumber and has resumed his journey. As a whippersnapper, I must go and observe his behavior from a vantage point that is very far away. If he spots me he will most likely try to throw his canes and dentures at me. Old-timers also have a tendency to yell at whippersnappers that invade their territory.

I still kick myself. I could have easily put a paper out in front of him with his card slip. Just a short note to say how much I loved him as a child, and asked for an autograph, I just never considered it.
I commend you for that and I'm sure he had respect for you because of it.
I would have treated him the same. I just liked him so much that if I saw him regularly
I would have to of asked just once. Good for you tor not asking. Take care.

I should have said "on one of my visits". It's been at least 5 years since though. I used to tell my
wife that nothing happened at those clubs (sex) but just two days ago one I used to go to got shut
down for allowing prostitution. And no, I didn't engage so to speak. I've been faithful to my wife since
we've been married. (15 years now)
Don't lie, you've been to strip clubs more than once.

I never even asked him for an autograph, even though I loved him so much as a child and would have loved to have it.
I once met Bob Crane too. He performed in a Play in Chicago called "Beginners Luck" it was very funny. He signed Autographs after the show and when I went up to him, (I was only about 10, 11?) and because my hair had been cut short due to allergies, he asked me: "What's your name son?" I said Susan, and he laughed and shook my hand and said: "Well, what do ya know! I Boy named Sue" That is how he signed my autograph. To a boy named Sue, Bob Crane.
That's it for my brush with fame with old TV celebrities. lol Bet you wish you hadn't asked.

Cool Bob Crane story. Hogan's Heros is probably my favorite show. I have all 6 seasons on DVD.
I also have all 3 seasons of Gilligan's Island. Sorry, but I would have had to ask Mr. Denver for his autograph
at least once. I live about 5 hours from Princeton W,Va.. I would have loved to have met him. I used to smoke
so that made me like him even more. I think I would have loved meeting Ginger too. Always and still have a
fascination for her. I went to a strip club once and got a picture with a feature dancer who claimed to be her
daughter. If I find it I'll post it. Of course I'll have to censor it. Anyway, you're lucky and I'm jealous. Peace! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by spapad from Thursday, July 14, 2011 9:56:44 PM)

Damn, I was asking for the road again. I am really going blind.
On the other hand, who would remember some odd name like THAT?! How about "Minnow Road" or something?
