Huh? Wtf

[Cotton eyed Joe]

No offence Stan, but I can't stand that techno beat, redneck twangy, fast fiddler dam song. They always play it at bucs games. Repeatedly, it seems. Every time I hear it, it pisses me off (especially if we're loosing) 

 

Is that all they say is that one little verse? over and over

After the second time I heard it I was sick of it.

[THX-1138]

I don't have a nick name, but does any one know what THX-1138 means ? I just use that for every place that needs a user name. but it does mean something.

 

I have a free piston return spring for the first person that can tell everyone where I got it from. it goes way back in time.

 

hint: it was in the movie "American Graffiti" but that is not where it's originally from.

THX 1138 was based on a student film Lucas made while attending USC.

The original title was Electronic Labyrinth: THX 1138 4EB

The stars of the film were Robert Duvall as THX 1138 (yes it's a name!), Donald Pleasence as SEN 5241, and Maggie McOmie as LUH 3417

THX 1138 was not only ahead of its time in sound effects, but also in the themes which it portrayes, such as the loss of individuals for the good of the group, the self-corruption of the human spirit, racism in science fiction, and yes, even channel-surfing

The film was produced by American Zoetrope Studios, then co-owned by Lucas and Francis Ford Coppola

The extras used in the film came from a drug rehabilitation center called Delancey Street Foundation. The only way to enter Delancey Street was to have your head shaved.

When George Lucas lived in the San Francisco Bay area, where the tunnel scenes in THX were filmed, one of his phone numbers was 849-1138, or as a mnemonic, THX-1138. Is that what you are referring too???

[eehsnab2]

I saw THX-1138... Good movie. I believe it was George Lucas's first movie that he wrote in college. Kinda like star wars before star wars.... Mine screen name is banshee spelled backwards (not that exciting).

[eehsnab2]

ooops, beat me to it.

[rebelbanshee2]

I didn't know all them details, but you got it.

 

where do I send the piston return spring ?

[cb67rs1]

i really dont think i have any use for a piston return spring unless its for a 12 gauge shot gun, mine is a little worn,

[THX-1138]

in the movie "American Graffiti"

 

the Yellow Coope had THX-1138 on the licence plate.

[dittmer]

This is pretty boring but i live in Dittmer, Mo. and i figure if i use the name enough

someone someday will say they have actually heard of it

[Fireman-hott]

I'm a fireman at a steel mill....hence the fireman, and hott is my last name. Ironic or coincidence? who the hell knows, but works great for picking up women.

[dcmoose]

Well My name is Dave Carretta, so thats where the dc comes in and Moose is because My dads good friend gave me that name when i was three becasue i was bigger than all of my brothers at three. I am now 6'2 265, so i kinda grew into the name.

[sandbuzzard]

Sand - well becasue i like playin in it

 

Buzzard - The old Bugs Bunny cartoons had a character called Beeky Buzzard (avatar) he wasn't the smartest one of the bunch but very cool and laid back. (had no worries)

 

 

The way i see myself.

[ikikazz]

well ikikazz means i kick ass that simple

[Wallrat]

Back in the 70's there were a bunch of rock climbers that lived at camp 4 in Yosemite valley. Of these climbers, a certain group of individuals evolved, known as Wall Rats. This group for whatever reason, found life on horizontal ground too complicated and prefered to spend their days hammering up the most bleak, lonesome routes on mammoth chunks of granite. Weeks spent on a single route was normal. Water, food, and energy being consumed several days before reaching the top. For the rats, it wasn't about reaching the summit, or making a name for themselves, or even bragging rights. The rewards meant nothing, the wall, everything. I guess I sorta related with this during my climbing heyday back in college. I was drifting through life and only felt comfortable when I was inching up one of the walls in Yosemite. Started using it as my email and just stuck with it ever since. Ironically, I almost never climb anymore. Guess I finally found some direction.
