NO! Too friggin' hot to do anything outside here. About 100 degrees (F) right now and looking at 105 F of pure heat for the next couple of days. You don't even want to know what the "feels like" temps are hitting. No dry heat here. I think I am going ot work the rest of the week in a speedo and flipflops.
I knew I should have gotten that bikini wax last week. Ah well. Folks at work will just have to deal with it.

Oh, yeah! You guys are in winter now. How cold does it get overthere?
It's getting warmer and warmer here in CA with each day that passes by. Kinda sad that the June Gloom that we usually get at this time of year didn't last very long.
Did you look at the new shirts in the online JP store? The Painkiller one looks pretty cool.

Queensryche Part Ways With Geoff Tate, Name Todd La Torre New Singer
After recent rumblings of tension and rumored incidents, veteran rockers Queensryche have parted ways with singer Geoff Tate. They’ve announced that Crimson Glory’s Todd La Torre is their new singer and have put their current tour dates on hold while they work on revised routing.
Queensryche drummer and band founder Scott Rockenfield explains the split. “Over the past few months, there have been growing creative differences within Queensryche. We want our fans to know that we hoped to find a common resolution, but in the end parting ways with Geoff was the best way for everyone to move forward in a positive direction. We wish him the best of luck with all of his future endeavors. We can’t wait to bring Queensryche to our fans with Todd behind the microphon
The new lineup already played two shows in Seattle under the name Rising West before Tate’s exit was official. The now former lead singer had to play as a solo artist when opening for the Scorpions last week in Utah after the rest of the band withdrew from the show. He already had solo acoustic shows planned for the summer along with a new solo album.
Replacing any vocalist is a big risk, especially when it is somebody as iconic as Tate, who had been in Queensryche since 1982 and was the voice behind all their hits. However, perhaps it’s one of those situations where both the band and Tate will end up better off in the long run.

I heard it on the Boneyard (sorry...OZZY'S Boneyard) last night but only caught half the announcement. Even came home looking for news on the internet.
Thanks for the post. Best I could find last night was that the band was reforming without Tate! Same as kicking him out, IMO.

Agree with Bud. If you want TRUE origins of Metal, look to the blues and, as Bud said, to 17th, 18th century and 19th century composers.
Fuel for the argument? Cite the series, "Metal Evolution, Headbanger's Journey." Nary a mention of the Beatles.
I hope you were arguing that whomever said "No Beatles, No Priest" was crazy.
The Beatles may have been an influence to pop or rock but I don't believe they influenced metal
much at all. Yeah they had a few heavy songs at the time but they were not the only ones. I would
give credit to the old blues guy's as major influences. Listen to some old blues and notice how it
has the early signs of "grinding" or "sludgy" sounding guitar. It definitely started the early rock and roll
which ultimately led to metal. I guess The Beatles could have been an early influence to some but
blues layed the groundwork that created heavy music. If you want to take it a step further there was
some pretty bassy and heavy sounding classical music from the 15 and 16 hundreds. I think this was
the first stuff classified devil music because of the deep bass. F#ck the Beatles, hail Beethoven.
(strictly opinion)(only matters to me)

If there was no Beatles would there be no Priest?

Ah, just drink the whole bottle of Listerene with lime and probably end up in the hospital getting your stomach pumped. LOL You'd be passed out cold, but you'd have the best breath in at least three states.
If only that Listerine bottle had similar instructions. I wouldn't have had to spend 30 minutes of my time in the bathroom last night debating to myself whether the brushing or the mouthwash-rinsing part should go first.

..can i just say that a decent over-strength whisky eradicates the need for brushing/flossing/rinsing...lol (also eventually rots ur teeth away)...so = the all round dental plan.

You RINSE with mouthwash?
I thought it was just to drink when you run out of vodka....
(true answer, after)
I have a question that's been bothering me for a while.
Do you rinse your mouth with mouthwash before or after brushing your teeth?
[Budred] Wednesday, June 13, 2012 4:17:12 AM
I use mouthwash on occasion. I use it after I brush.
It may just be in my mind but to me it seems like you would brush away the mouthwash
if you use it before. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Vaillant 3.0 from Wednesday, June 13, 2012 12:29:36 AM)
