or at least those are the first 10 that always mesmerize me or never get old really. and if i could put an 11th, at this point in time it'd probably be GGD - God's Money.

Everyneurotic,i don't wanna argue or anything but your ranking of These days is disputable.

what? is it too high on the list?

your right, i'd put 7800° farenheit higher than it.

also, i realized i screwed up majorly...i like new jersey better than slippery when wet.
