Music
my favorites change with my mood, just like everyone else I suppose.
But I would really like to find some people that still like to rock out to old school hair bands. I love the Scorpions and I had a blast at their last show. No one ever wants to go with me to those arena shows but I still like to rock and bang my head! So if you still dig old school Ozzy, Iron Maiden, Sammy Hagar, Aerosmith, Def Leppard, Judas Priest, Dio, Tesla, Van Halen, Metallica, GnR and Motley Crue - let me know. Some of these bands still surface and I love to check them out.

Oh Shauna - PLEASE tell me you watched Big Brother tonight. I recorded it & just finished watching it & I am DYING to hear what your reaction to this episode is. I know you watch it too, but don't know if you are watching this season. I almost couldn't breathe during the manipulation leading to the veto meeting & during the meeting itself. I went through feelings of disgust with the manipulation but then I would burst into laughter about it the next second. It was so manipulative that in the end I was totally bursting into laughter & then feeling sympathy for each of the 4 who were questioned. That was one of my favorite reality show moments ever. If one really thinks of the show as a GAME, that was such a clever game move. In terms of real life friendships, it's sick, but as a game move - brilliant. However, maybe it will backfire. I wonder how long it will take all 4 of them to compare notes & then all come after Dan. It's hard to say. Wow. This show is HOT! I so hope you watched this episode. I feel like leaping all over the place after that; it made me all hyper.
