No offense, but before y'all met Lulu, did any of you have a frigging clue what "Oakley glasses" were? Markie always described his wife as having "Oakley glasses" and I though "what the hell are oakley glasses, is this common knowlesge or something?"

apparently, if you delete the first post on a thread, the entire topic goes away. oops.
nobody cares if you talk about going to shows at other places, but we've got rules about buying and selling tickets here. if it's for an imp or 9:30 show, use the ticket exchange. if it's not, use the website of the venue that's hosting the show.

But I would like to come into your showroom to take a dump. Is that permissible in the manky rule book of etiquette?
