    Nobody likes nickelback. It is the one thing that unites all of us.

    What a load of horseshit. The democrats have nominal control with the biggest gain being control of the agenda. There a number of senators (particularly Joe Manchin) who fall right of center on the spectrum. They will have effective veto power over just about anything that Biden wants. After 4 years of servile bootlicking by the republicans in Congress I can see how you would take that as normal, but it's not what will happen with Biden.

    When any pop musician decides to write a song, they ask themselves "would Jenee like this?" I am so not a music snob. I like the crap that is churned out just to make money.

    I'd rather have the nickel back I paid for it - it wasn't worth half that much! :brood:

    are they still around? I bet they are playing county fairs at this point. Were they just at Mar-A-Lago for the New Year's bash?

    You should ask @Jenee as she seems to enjoy the sounds of cats in a cement mixer.

    what's so bad about nickelback other than they're canadian? For some reason I confuse these guys with Sixpence, none the richer.

    maybe they're both named after money.

    This just in. Apparently I'm supposed to riot tomorrow in Midtown Atlanta:

    GHQ employees,

    Due to concerns expressed by local authorities and out of an abundance of caution related to the demonstrations, the GHQ campus will be closed on Thursday, January 7. Thank you in advance for working from home.

    Managers, please ensure your employees who are approved to go into GHQ regularly have received this message. No one will have access to the building or parking garage.

    We anticipate the building reopening on Friday, January 8. We will keep you informed if the closure is extended.

    Best,

    I'm not even a big Beatles fan. and if not for the Beatles, I'd have never heard of Yoko. Tererun doesn't like Nickelback and I ... don't hate them.

    @oldfella1962 is very happy at this news (unless this is yet another of the things Republicans said they were going to do before he voted for them that he doesn't actually support)
