Yes it has :-) Probably a decade or so since if have been to CC or on DGN... things kind of slip away if you are not paying attention to them.

Hey Troy, Yes, we are still together and doing good (both at U of M still) Zhuk

Hey there, Signed into an old email account and found 375 notifications from DGN. Took me way less time to remember my DGN password than to figure out how to get into my old email account (which I needed for a laptop) Oh well... Hope all is well with anyone who might see this. Zhuk

its like they decided to jump the shark... not even an accident. They said... how can we take a great film and remake it as absolute crap? They brainstormed and did everything they could to destroy the idea... I am also inclined to believe that the writer/director/producers of this film some how managed to give Patrick Swayze brain cancer as well.

I have to work in the AM... so being up all night does not work for me any more...

If i know I am going, i will reply. I never make it to the necto and its 1/8 the distance... <sigh>

Hollow point ammo is not illegal. It is encouraged for hunting/personal defense.

WOW.... last time I saw Paul, It seemed like he totally lost his shit. He was teetering on the edge (or just totally drunk). I hope he is ok.

Hey all its been a while... The few times I have made it back to CC, I have not seen anyone i recognized (or had anyone recognize me). I guess Im getting old enough that I am several "scenes" back. I outgrew my goth/industrial clothes... so that might have been a factor. I think looking like a nicely dressed undercover cop probably made people shy away (no Im not a cop of any kind). I might come out more, but not knowing anyone anymore added to not knowing any of the new music makes for a really boring night. Zhuk

I miss pre War on Terror Lead prices <sigh>

One aspect of these "polls" "they" like to ignore is that only really old people answer their landlines. More and more it only old people who have land lines and old people tend to be the most conservative. They are not always indicative of the entire population and total opinion percentages. (no i did not take the time to read every post... Ok... that was my drive by post for 2012 (and probably 2011 and 2013 as well) Zhuk

I saw them "recently" when they opened up for Ministry (back during the bush years... or was it Hanzel und Gretyl). TKK was one of my favorite bands in the early 1990s. I saw them every time they came through Detroit or Toledo. When I saw them recently, it was truly truly terrible. Groovy Man was sooooooooo old (like Keith Richards Drug old), that he could not sing. it was pitiful. It was as bad as the one Geriatric professor with Alzheimer's that the University will not fire. Just sayin'

I remember them being good most of the times I saw them in the early 1990s (with TKK or LOA).... though I was probably drunk. The best show they did was the one where their DAT tape broke and the concert ended... Zhuk

As much as I would like to visit the Ukraine, I think I will pass on visiting Pripyat at least in person. I have seen a number of videos taken by people who are braver than I, it is very erie looking. I have to admit that although I fear the radiation, I would be more afraid of being killed by one of the hoards of wild boars that run wild in there and are not afraid of people or anything else.... at least if I got killed by too many Rads, it would not be as silly as being killed by giant, possibly mutant pigs on a rampage (due to no humans in the area) WPD

I missed it too... I was even on liberty walking to dinner on main and still could not last out the night. I am feeling so old.
