Hmmmm...
I think that you can truly call yourself a non-computer-geek when you look at the word/acronym "WOPR" and think to yourself,"Mmmm...Burger King." That or a shameless 'murican.
A perfect comment for the Blah, indeed.
Peace, Love and Mac n Cheese.

Why, just cycle through every single number and uppercase/lowercase letter! If it had to figure out all 10 simultaneously, now THAT would take some time.
Moral of the story? Make strong passwords and always choose Chess over Global Thermonuclear War. 
Oh yeah...and don't give geeks too much free time to think about these sorts of things.

Glad to hear HRMG got to enjoy Saxon in Michigan. I left for the Cleveland show but I didn't make it. Ended up driving an hour for no reason. Stopped in Boardman and had dinner with the wife. Listened to Saxon all the way home which did nothing for my depression (lol). I still can't believe I haven't seen them yet. I'm not their biggest fan, I never thought alot about Biff's vocals but some of their music is heavy as hell and I can see why some like them so much. I did like their first three albums alot and from HRMG's brief description it sounds like they may have done a bit of the older stuff. If there's ever a next time maybe then. I decided to skip the Otep show next month and at least one of the MRH shows. I joke about it alot but I really do need to cut back a little.

Huh. I just read that Wiki. Didn't realize that the "holiday" was so localized. We had a Saunders candy store next to the high school and all around Detroit. Used to make a mad dash to that store at lunch as it was an open hour.
Man, what I wouldn't give for some "buttons" now. Not the ones I see prepackaged but the originals. Bought 'em by the foot!
Wow....how things have changed. Even looking for an image only generates THIS prepackaged garbage! www.amazon.com/BUTTONS-Necco-twenty-2-strip-strips/dp/B000FNB7UO

I think that Dont go was someones attempt to turn them into a pop band. if that single had taken off I bet there would have been a change of direction., thankfully it didnt and we got SFV
the biggest blunder?
Probably the reunion timeline. Rob comes back in 03/04. album 05. AOR a good solid metal album. not a game changer, but decent. then wait 3 years, put out an album that was contraversial. why the wait. then we go now 5 years, with just ocasional talk of an album. 5 years between albums is not what relevant bands do.
either that or the biggest blunder was rob leaving to begin with. they went 6 years between albums then, could have figued out his solo shit and had him back in time for jugulator (or whatever it would have been)

Back into training again and I ran to Nostra 1. No secret that I am on the side that liked the album. However, why the HELL did they make a video out of WAR?!?! FFS! Persecution! Why push "Prophecy?" While not a bad tune by any means but nobody that isn't a true JP fan knows its name. Push NOSTRA itself!!!! DAMN! Nothing makes me push a run farther (and also question the "Curbishley" management). SO many dropped balls (American football reference...keep your minds out of the gutter!) it isn't funny.

Very cool theater and very nice area. Even if you can't get to a show, see if you can get a look in the theater.
Want something WAY off the beaten path that only real Detroiters know? Take a spin through Heidelberg. Again, take their warnings VERY seriously (read how to get there and see more pix on the site below) and don't wander a street away in any direction but DO get out and take all the pix you want. You'll find cameras a lot more expensive than yours out without fear. www.heidelberg.org/
Where else would you see something like THIS? All of two blocks. Be sure to walk around the BACK of the houses. Really impressive. Wiki it and you'll learn more. Sign the lady's house at the end of the block for a buck! Kewl.

I really liked the look of that theatre though and thought that would be cool. I've been to Detroit before I just didn't search out anything to do. Went to Cobo Hall to watch Ultimate Fighting and stayed at the Renaissance Center and checked out the Detroit Zoo the day after a Priest show(DTE) but that's it.

Greektown! If you are into Greek food, it is a must-stop. Depends on when you go, as well. Look to see who is at the Fox Theater, Greektown (not to be confused with the area) has a casino (called the Greektown Casino...what a surprise), I'd see who was playing at Joe Louis Arena (last place we saw Priest), you might catch a hockey game or even football as all are in that area. No major parks but you can jump on the People Mover and get a good tour of the city as it runs in a big circle. Go to the top of the Renaissance Center if you REALLY want a view. You can go for drinks or food. It sits at the top and both spin so you can see beautiful views of the city and Windsor on a good day or night. Belle Isle is a park / Island that isn't much but good for a car tour. Great parks are further north. Did you see the pix of Harpos I posted for you? Vacation thread. While it would be great to catch a show there, you do NOT want to hang out there at night. No problem at all in the venue itself and I even park on the street but don't get lost in that area. If in doubt? Head south into Grosse Pointe. Drive too far south and you'll hit the lake! Drive Lakeshore to be sure. Beautiful houses and all of Grosse Pointe runs along the lake.
I'd say "RiverWalk" and the Atwater Brewing Company (both along the Detroit River) but November is COLD! Fishbones for good music (all downtown) and food and even St. Andrews Hall is worth a look to see who is playing. Tons of museums (Motown is worth it, DIA - Detroit Institute of Arts, etc. if you are into such things. Urban sprawl, though. You won't find much by way of "natural areas" unless you head north. Clarification, by north I mean hours to the north!
Good start with what I mention above. Hell, you could spend a DAY in the Ren Cen alone! Park there and take the People Mover around. Only parking cheaper is at the casino and getting a free stamp at the cage. THEN take the People Mover around!

@Guido. What would one do in Detroit in November to have fun. May go to Harpo's and would like to find something to do the next day. Pittsburgh has "Station Square" and Cleveland has "The Flats". Entertainment districts with restaraunts, bars, nightclubs, etc. Does Detroit have such an area. Any suggestions. Open to other things also. Nice State parks, etc. Just looking for ideas.

I don't know if this particular camp will be aired on VH1, but with Priest and all the other rock stars that will be there, I'm betting it will be. The show is called Rock and Roll Fantasy Camp. I've watched both seasons. Pretty cool show!

Your "modesty" is saying that you started what is arguably the most popular thread on this board "a few years ago" and you even go on to explain to a spec on a flea why you use your colors and how you (and others) chose names.

I have never written a song in my life either...but, it is for ALL levels...beginner to expert. I have written poems before...aren't many songs just poems put to music?
I don't know what s most exciting about the thing...Deep Freeze got to be in a band for a bit and loved it...I always wanted to do that, but never had the chops or time or, dare I say it, the balls, to do it. This camp is giving me that opportunity to do that and much more. I am super excited to be able to meet the guys, but I think even more excited about the opportunity to LEARN from them and all the others.
They say in the brochure that they will give us a link to share with our friends and family so they can stream the performance live. I will post it here for all of you so you can watch. Hopefully I will do you all proud!!

AWESOME! I'm hoping to win lotto so I can come too haha! Not that I can really play an instrument proficiently enough, or sing for that matter.

We can still dream it, though.

You are too modest, Demonizer. Also a victim of the 2008 "roll-forward" when Murray switched the servers and made many 2005 (or slightly prior) members pushed up to a join date of 2008.
