Probably because most people remember that the reports were posted by the sheriff's department themselves on FB. I'm sure that won't stop you from beating the dead fucking horse for the 100th time.

yup they posted this since people kept calling in

Never been in the drive in theatres.  But I always wanted to go.  They are just not here anymore.

The good news is that around here the drive-in is coming back, in some capacity, for a new generation though, lamentably, hipster driven. But still cool to see them coming back. And though usually showing more 'cult' movies now some are showing normal ones. I haven't been, yet, but even seen ads on tv for them now.

Honestly, you didn't miss much. The moviegoing experience was worse than modern theaters, which in itself is worse yet than watching at home. You certainly didn't go for the movie experience so much as who you were with.  8)

Whatever bud. Let us know what The Weekly World News is reporting on Bat Boy. Smart guy.

I had the pleasure of seeing a movie at "The Spud" drive-in with my German lady-friend back in 2006.  I am really trying to recall what the movie that we saw was, but can only remember that the "sign" out by the highway was a gigantic boulder that looked like a potato with the words "The Spud" painted on it.

We both fell asleep in the car before the movie ended as I recall...

Haven't played that, but Saints Row IV was the most fun I've ever had playing a game, probably. That game is made to be as fun as humanly possible.

Turned on my radio for weather reports (we're sharing storms like Southern Nevada) and decided to leave Knapp on.  There's a lot of Knapps in SoNev...

I loved the drive-in when I was a kid.  It was great watching cheesy sci-fi/ monster movies outdoors on a nice summer night, along with junk food from the concession stand.

Mr. Fidget

   Well, I gave Art a day to come back and interact with his "vaguely lovables"... I guess he had greener pastures. He had a 24 hour "fidget free" window, and he missed it. We gotta do something to keep this thread going... there are diaper dollars on the line. If Art won't keep this thread hopping, I'll try. I can talk "Art Bell" all day long. I'm talking about Art Bell here in the Art Bell thread, if anyone has questions about fidgets, they go here: http://bellgab.com/index.php/topic,1643.msg701118.html#new
   Now, I know I have some detractors around here, and a few (perhaps several) supporters. I'm going to make it my job, this campaign season... to pull in these "detractors", and shove some kool-aid down their pie holes. I know, I know... you're not thirsty... but don't let that keep you from enjoying a fine sweetened beverage. You don't want me to pour it down the drain do you?
   You see, Art can't deal with me professionally, because he started out unprofessional. He did not follow the "script", to use a figure of speech. When (on my second call in 1997) I told him I sent him his 5 free fidgets... I also specifically told him to only put a picture of the simplest one, the one with the comic book on his website. What did our "boy genius" do? He put up all five. On the show you can hear my reaction, it was a moment.
   As a result, my job got a lot harder, not even counting the forthcoming legal quagmire which was unprecedented for ridiculousness. I had a comic book for the basic one, the one I was ready to prepare, the one that was simple to make... and with which I had the most experience. As an inventor / designer / manufacturer I all of a sudden had people wanting all five, this one... or that one. A total boondoggle. A product launch nightmare was born. Everything would have been different if Art had done the one reasonable (and reasoned) thing I asked... "only put a picture of the simplest one, the one with the comic book, on your website".
   I was hardly ready (and in hindsight not even ready) to roll out one model, let alone five.
   Way to follow instructions Art, bonehead move, nothing personal, we all make mistakes.
   Bring your apology Art, start there, and work your way up to "I should have kept in contact, I should have looked at your purportedly explanatory documentation, it was wrong of me to blacklist you... and walk away"... I don't know... be creative.
   Then maybe we can put this behind us, and get to making you your ten million dollars by giving "time travelers" free "time machines".

^^^See that Art, it's called "a window of opportunity" you could just face facts right now and get this all handled before the public sentiment goes against you... even more.
