| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Feb. 01 | Every time I hear this song, I think of the movie Real Genius with Val Kilmer. by Tears for Fears Welcome to your life There's no turning back Even while sleep We will find you Acting on your best behaviour Turn your back on mother nature Everybody wants to rule the world It's my own design It's my own remorse Help me to decide Help make the most Of freedom and of pleasure Nothing ever lasts forever Everybody wants to rule the world There's a room where the light won't find you Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down When they do I'll be right behind you So glad we've almost made it So sad they had fade it Everybody wants to rule the world I can't stand this indecision Married with a lack of vision Everybody wants to rule the world Say that you'll never never never need it One headline why believe it ? Everybody wants to rule the world All for freedom and for pleasure Nothing ever lasts forever Everybody wants to rule the world  I believe in the Faith... that can save me. I believe in the hope and I pray... That someday it may raise me... above these badlands Over The Limit | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jul. 01 | (From Mystery Science Theater 3000) If chauffeurs ruled the world-- It's what I'd like to see 'Cause everyone in the world Would take a back seat to me. I wouldn't have to drive-- I wouldn't have to steer-- 'Cause all would bow down before me In total abject fear. All the gorgeous dames Would worship at my feet! Why--I could have any one of them I want! Even Meryl Steep! I'd have complete respect Of everyone on the planet Including intellectuals, Even David Mamet. Tell me, why do I have to take Orders from this guy? I'd like to drop him a bucket of boiling grease And watch him slowly die. (That's enough, Frank.) If chauffeurs ruled the world-- (That's enough, Frank! FRANK!) It's what I'd like to see-- (That's enough!) 'Cause everyone in the world Would take a back seat to me--Mammy!

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Feb. 01 | In keeping with (my favorite) theme of GLOBAL DOMINATION... :-D (parody of To Dream the Impossible Dream) From the "Mouse of LaMancha" episode of Pinky and the Brain :Brain: It's not important whether he succeeded or not. What's important is... :Brain: To scheme the improbable scheme To plan the unthinkable plan To build when your arms are too tiny To walk in the suit of a man. This is my fate To conquer the earth To play with the big boys Though I lack the girth To reach for the stars On a whim or a dare I could climb to the top If I only could reach the first stair. And the world doesn't know what they'll miss If a mouse doesn't follow his dream To scrawl with his last bit of graphite To scheme the improbable scheme!  I'll conquer the world long before Kingpin ever finds "Pinky" Now, I must return to the Lab to prepare for tomorrow night... This message was edited by The Brain on 6-23-02 @ 9:42 PM | ||||
