NeejaHalycon 0 Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 My own personal one is being the only one who clapped when Williams' said CE3K was one of his favorite scores at a discussion after a concert.If you want to kick someone in the face for thinking John Williams is a guitarist.JustinCan I also want to kick people in the face who think Bette Midler wrote "Somewhere In My Memory"? Btw, iTunes actually has a Mason Williams album that pops up on John Williams' artist page. It's probably just a computer glitch, but it still makes me mad.

Chris ChrusherComix 46 Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 Great idea. If you are caught singing the lyrics to Something Wicked This Way Comes. Never heard it yet.If In your spare time you count off every score John Williams has ever done in chronological order. I'm bad at counting, so I just collect them, look at them, and listen to the ones I like. If you find yourself having another nightmare about the Prisoner of Azkaban score being delayed. I could care less about that. My nightmare is if Williams died before finishing every Star Wars and Indy movie. And composing a score to a film about Christ (Dammit for missing that latest opportnity!)If you hate Don Davis for scoring JP3. I don't hate him, but I don't like it either. JP3 sucked, so no biggie for not scoring it. Davis did do 1 great cue, so at leats we got that out of it. If you compare real life situations to John Williams track titles. I've done that alot. I also write and create my own stories to WIlliams music. This is why sometimes I prefer to heasr the music before I see the films they were composed to.If you pay $200 for an LP of Gidget Goes to Rome. One exists? If I had $200 to spend on it I still wouldn't pay for it. I'll trade for a copy of it though. If you know what Gidget Goes To Rome is. I think I have it on tape.If you conduct your stereo in a black turtleneck and khaki pants. No. But when I was a a 5-6 year old kid I did used to conduct the stero. Normal kid clothes though.If you can count off every nominated score by John Williams and what it lost too. Nope. I could care less about awards shows. They sicken me. If I want to see people win and lose, I'll watch sports. You can't judge the arts in such a cride manner as those awards shows do.If you want to kick someone in the face for thinking John Williams is a guitarist. Neither are well known enough amongst the plebians.If you're daily routine consists of 'get up, go on computer to JWFan.' Add coffee to that. I used to do that more bu then I got a girlfriend and work. That's not a knock, that's just the reason why I can't do it as much as I used to. If you skip meals to continue debates with JWFaners. I USED to do this, but when I realized how much time I was spending debating, I had to back off, LOL!If you display JWFan merchandise (such as T-shirts, mugs, hats) in your avatar. LOL! Should I scan my autographed pic of Williams? For me, I'll just keep my self-portrait for now. If you would rather see King Mark's latest 'Who is the *-----*est Poster' than go out with friends. Or, you had King Mark stay at your house for a week and went chick-hunting with him! (Well, 6 days before he outstayed his welcome with your mom! LOL!!! Love ya' Mark!) If you have over 6824 posts and live in australia He's disqualified because he doesn't buy anything.If you have a job and loving family and still would rather be on JWFan. Why not all three?If a power outage means possible suicide. Never been that bad. Although I did get mad at losing some rather lengthy posts a few times! LOL!If when Andreas closes the site for upgrades you spend the day listening to JW CD's with shaking hands and glazed eyes while mumbling "it's got to come back..." Actually, to me that means a break. If you spend most of your time pouring through the old records of previous threads on the EZ and Ikon board. Ah, that was my heyday.
