If this doesn't bring chills up your spine then you are a fish.

Ha. This is as close as you've ever gotten to opera, maricon.

Here's dbu's version of ballet:

LOL, dance dbu. Now..., where's Cheney and his shotgun.

I posted it with high regard for Pavarotti. It was in his honor, nothing else. I am sorry he has passed away.

I sent an e-mail to the BBC:

"Comparing Pavoratti with Elton John and Madonna is like comparing a Ferrari with a Toyota and a Ford. Nice cars, but just not in the same league.

I was going to say, "Comparing a Rolls Royce..." but since Pavoratti and Ferrari are both from Modena I considered the comparison more fitting."

Since Pavarotti once sang a song with none other than James Brown, I suspect he would've disagreed with your statement above.

You can wish the duet with Brown never happened. Let me know if you're going to do that.

clap - clap - clap - clap

I had a girlfriend who had season ballet tickets to the Kennedy Center in Washington and would force me to go occassionaly to the performances. After the second or third time I fell asleep she stopped taking me anymore.

I'd much rather watch people doing the chicken dance than girly men running around in tight shorts and exposing their crotches for the audience.

You mean like the rappers on MTV? LOL.

Falling asleep is not too bad, I once had a girl who always wanted to go on roller coasters and ferris wheels, she'd call me a chicken if I didn't go. After 3 rides, imagine what 2 burritos, and a supersize coke looks like on the floor.

LOL

I knew SOMEONE had to watch Lawrence Welk. Must be you....

I notice the girlfriend is past tense...LOL

The Kennedy Center is a class venue, but I agree, ballet ain't my cup of tea!

LOL....

Another girl in past tense....

I can relate to that. I'm not too fond of amusement park rides myself. The worst one I've ever been on is called DaVinci's Cradle at the local park. It just goes straight up and rushes straight down over and over again. The first time I went on it with my kid I had to go sit by the bushes afterwards praying I didn't hurl everything I had eaten an hour ago. You don't see too many adults on that ride for the second time.

What about Elton John, Bono, et al...?
