So I've been gone from the US for 1 year and a half going back and forth between Denmark and Germany and I have no idea what is going on back home. I return in a couple of months and thought I should at least know what's popular. Some stuff I would like to know:
What TV shows are becoming "must sees" -- I am stuck in Germany and only CNN and MTV are in english, and I would be willing to bet that "A Shot of Love With Tila Tequila" and "Quest Means Business" are not attention grabbers. Seems like I've been hearing more about 30 Rock lately... I couldn't even name a movie that is coming out this summer except for Wolverine. What should be good? How are food prices/gas prices -- any major jumps in buying shit. How much for a Big Mac meal. NBA basketball -- I know the rankings but who are the "favorites". Anything interesting going on at Tech/Lubbock -- new buildings, is Marsha Sharp complete, etc...? What are the dumb ass fashion trends that I shouldn't be shocked to see -- huge ass sunglasses still in vogue? Anything else I should know? -------------------- ![]() |

Marsha Sharp construction still sucks balls.
Every thug and frat boy in town wears TapOut, Affliction, and Xtreme Couture clothing so as to put off a wannabe fighter image. Lubbock may go "wet" May 9th. It's the biggest push in a generation to legalize packaged alcohol sales within the city limits. So far the "pro" group has out fundraised & spent by a 2-1 margin the "anti" douchebags. Food prices went up with the summer gas spike across the board (because of trucking costs)...and they haven't come down all that much. "Public Enemies" ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1152836/ ) looks pretty good. Comes out July 1st. -------------------- |
