But, isn't it a bit silly for *anyone* to claim they are/know Houston's
"most talented" band.   Even if we are going to just consider rock bands (ie:  
ignoring the large amount of live, original country around town), "most  
talented" is a bit of a misnomer.

While one may compare the "talent" of similar bands (eg: Toy Subs, Trish and  
Darin, and the Basics) extending the comparison beyond that is ridiculous.   
Dead Horse, deSchmong, or Blender play a completely different *style* of rock.
Guitar, drums, bass, keyboards, etc. are used for different purposes.   Someone  
very talented at playing the drums in a harder - sounding band would be  
completely inadequate at conventional sixties-ish rock.

In short, "most talented" is roughly equivalent to "best".  You're not going to
find people who agree, and the question itself is a bit irrelevant.  The best
thing to do is tell folks about your favorites, and try and make the local
scene better for *all* the bands struggling along out there.

i think he is saying that the hunger aren't houstons most
talanted band.  just sounds a little sarcastic.  he, however,
is also on the wrong boat in assumeing that joint chiefs
are even close to houstons most talanted.

I'm dying for a laptop *anything*.  Well, preferably PC-compatible.  If anyone
has an ancient, battered portable that works reasonably well and is willing to
get rid of, I'm interested.  Even an ancient, battered PC.

Admittedly, though, I fall into the archetypal college student that does not 
have tons of cash to throw around (unfortunately.)  Were I able to afford a
late-model laptop, or even a basic 8088 with bloody CGA and a 5 1/4 drive only,
I'd get it, but alas.              ^^^^  sign of desperation

Yes, well, carry on.  I spose I'll go scan a Greensheet or something....
Someone might pay me to take an XT or something. (sigh)

You might consider lowering your selling price a bit there, mastro.  It seems
to be quite evident of the current going rate for a nice, new 486 for well

Last time I checked... 4 meg SIMMS were as good or better of a deal than 1 
meg SIMMS, so I doubt that you are going to get anyone that wants to give 
you more for less unless you find someone out there that just doesn't need 
some 4 meg SIMMS lying around.
	If I were you, I'd try a little incentive...like maybe 9 1 meg SIMMS
for two 4 meg's... even though no one could probably use 9 or throw some 
cash in or something.

	Why would anyone want to give you 24megs of ram for 20 megs??
	Think if you added some cash in there,  You might get a replay.
	Just a suggestion.

Close.  (Trivia Question #2:) Where were S&G before WLUP?             

???? -> WLUP -> WLS -> WLUP-AM -> WLUP-FM

I was watching some TV show on A&E a while back on the history of (gasp)
Disco music, and they give S&G credit for starting the death of disco in the
US.  Cool!

Cliff Mercer of WGN radio/TV.  He was a staff announcer who for a while did the
"The Bozo Show."

Actually they will deny that Cliff is Cliff Mercer since the character evolved into
the sponsor of "Cliff's Radio Camp for Boys" and friend of "Andre the Chef."

Jack Taylor almost Ka-boshed the bit when he told Steve that the real Cliff was
having a bad time with his personal life.

Let's not forget that John Drury got his start in Chicago courtesy of WGN.
If memory serves, Harry Volkman started his TV weather career in on WGN as
well.
