  saffuna: When the truth is found to be lies, all the joy within you dies.

Grace Slick at Altamont, as the crowd calls for Jefferson Airplane to start playing again: "We'll play as soon you give us our lead singer back."

That was Marty Balin, who had jumped into the crowd to help a guy being hammered by Hell's Angels. He was knocked out and hadn't returned to the stage.

  WannaBe: Best Simpsons, (EVER), it had M. Carlsen, and chess, and opening name (Budapest Gambit), and it even had the board's white square in the lower right corner!!

And it had M. Carlsen, and old fashioned chess clock, and Homer doing a simul at Moe's.

And it had M. Carlsen!!

  WannaBe: Wow, LA Kings acquire goalie Bishop (free agent after this season) from Tampa Bay, I can't say I agree with this move, as Budaj (traded to TB) filled in admirably in place of injured J. Quick (since returned).
