Hmmm...guess I am old then. Since I'm more than 10 years old, I fondly remember many things that happened more than 10 years ago.

But you don't spend a lot of time doing that, do you? Having memories of the past is not the same as living in it.

edit: do you spend more time wishing you were back in the good ol' days, or looking forward to the future?

Hard to say, I guess. Probably more time thinking of the future. I think having young kids has something to do with it...thinking about their future. Josephus's kids are similar ages to mine, though. I don't know if he feels the same way about that or not.

Since I just had a birthday, I have certainly spent plenty of time wondering where the time has gone. Sometimes I feel old, sometimes not. But I guess I don't spend much time talking about it here, especially since so many of the people here are younger than me.

Or maybe I'm just immature for my age

When Dr. J talks about his kids, he sounds young.
When Ms. Name talks about getting a dog, she sounds young.

When Dr. J and Ms. Name trade stories about concerts that took place literally decades ago, in the last millennium, they sound old.

Everybody's older than someone (except mabe the baby Wookie). Old is when you spend a lot of time talking about it.

Well, I've thought and thought, and can't think of a good idea for this week's contest. I came up with one that's "baby got to get paid" with baby wearing a tie and earring and diaper with bills in the hand. I came up with a half of the earth on a orange juicer with the liquid going into a bank representation. I came up with a fist squeezing the earth. None sound that amazing...

Bleah....

You just wish you were around then!

My first concert was around 1982ish... Rush- Moving Pictures. Great tour.

Since this is the cyberpub, and speaking of babies, what do people think of this greed design- "Baby Gots to Get Paid":

Looking for some suggestions on how to improve this.


Did the easier idea first, Genghis will have to wait a little bit longer.

England Dan and John Ford Coley.. 1974? I was little, I fell asleep during the show.

I'm out.

Dare I say I am considering it as well?

I'm not going to count concerts my parents dragged me to when I was young (Olivia Newton-John in the mid-70s, anyone? I got to shake her hand!)

My first "real" concert was Cheap Trick, also in 1982. (I saw Rush in 1983 (?), the Signals Tour.)

I guess Attila, Skek and I are around the same age. Now we're going to drive no1 crazy.

Heee! My first REAL concert then, as an 80's teenybopper, was culture club. it was great, went with a girlfriend and her older sister. Favorite concert was Korn a few years ago, I took my brother for his bday. I'll be 41 next month.

no no no I look forward to the pucker! I haven't voted for one yet, 'cause it scares me, but I always look forward to seeing what you come up with.

greedy for kisses maybe?

I see a pucker running out of a store with an overfilled sack of lipstick/libgloss. Or a bright red pucker handing an almost entirely used thing or empty of lipstuff to a smaller, non-red pucker who looks slightly sad...

I'm debating whether to use by baby design as is, or change it to something slightly different... Lemme see...

I would certainly vote for a greedy pucker.

I like the baby, especially his hat. But his chest looks a bit, let's say, voluptuous.

I made some changes to the piggy bank robber. I'm still trying to think of a title that conveys greed. Currently thinking "Pennies? Ha!"

I like it! Like the title too.

Heard this on the radio this morning, and it reminded me of this derby. Might make a good shirt idea for someone.

Depeche Mode
Everything Counts

The handshake seals the contract
From the contract there's no turning back
The turning point of a career
In Korea being insincere
The holiday was fun-packed
The contract, still intact

The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves - after all
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves - after all
It's a competitive world

Everything counts in large amounts

The graph on the wall
Tells the story of it all
Picture it now see just how
The lies and deceit gained a little more power
Confidence - taken in
By a suntan and a grin

The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves - after all
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves - after all
It's a competitive world

Everything counts in large amounts

The grabbing hands grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts

Kenneylumpkins, if there is no pucker this week then I will throw myself off one of our landmark buildings. (We'll hold a drawing to see which.)

I vote for the Mirage. Right after you show up and ask for their best dolphin in homer simpson's voice.

PemberDucky wrote:Mmm....memories.
"Good day, sir! I am in the market for a virile young dolphin, and I understand you are the purveyor of the finest dolphins in the land. Just name your price!"

funny...

I expect we'll see a pucker so there will be no need for hurling oneself off the Mirage.

I nixed the idea of a dragon hoard myself, thinking there would be others. You are the 3rd I've heard of. But so far this is the best looking. Are you drawing the detail with a mouse?

Nice! very nice!

She won a prize on the radio--two tickets anywhere in the Continental US.
She's probably still asleep--that's why she didn't know they selected her to win.
I say she has to take me wherever she decides to go.

yes! she totally owes you! especially if that's one of those 'call back within x minutes or we give it to someone else' prizes.

Have fun with the tablet. I sometimes wish I had gone for the Intuos, but I'm still such a hack there would be no point.

ummm.... no clever response coming to mind, so moving on...

Seeing really good entries in the derby takes away motivation to try entry #2. Plus I sorta promised the wife I wouldn't do more than one a week. If I do it when she's sleeping she can't complain, so maybe genghis gets some attention late night.
