Wow I've been away for too long. But anyways, I've come across a NWOBHM band I think you guys may have heard of, Praying Mantis. They have many similarities to Maiden like twin guitar stuff and operatic vocals but they have a more melodic approach, and some past members like Paul Dianno and...

Sightings gotta prove somethin MIGHT exist right? Discuss.

Happy birthday man! Have a good one! :hbd:

My mom recently sold our Mitsubishi Lancer, leaving our Getz and Everest. Now that she's bagging for a sports utility vehicle between the sizes of our other two cars, we've had choices between Hyundai Tucson/Santa Fe, Honda CRV, and similar stuff. My personal choice is the Chevy Captiva, and it...

Its like every once in a while when I'm listening to my ipod, there's a time when I shuffle songs and the ipod plays the song in my head! It's like THE CLAIRVOYANT! Like once I remembered Nicko's funny burp and suddenly Still Life plays in my ipod! Or when I enjoyed Revelation's solo and the...

Well, the Phoenix has finally risen. NASA's next Mars mission is now set to find signs of life in the red planet's polar ice caps, and hopefully will open the way to man exploration and eventual colonization. Even though the previously sent Viking spacecraft proved fruitless, this new mission...

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070620/ap_on_re_as/japan_iwo_jima Apparently with films like "Flags of Our Fathers, and Letters from Iwo Jima", Japan took the last straw and changed ol' Iwo Jima to Iwo To. Iwo To was apparently the original name of this bloody WW2 battleground. Here's some...

When I read that article, I was dumbfounded. Well, this terminal woman's two kidneys will be donated, but one will be the grand prize in a game. It's kinda sad that people who NEED a kidney have to have some sort of "Survival of the fittest" just to win a kidney. It's kinda like toying with...

I have been considering owning a dog lately, we could use more companionship and fun around the house. Hopefully in the future I can get one, but I also one to know you guys experiences with dogs. Doing a little research, I expressed interest in the following breeds, which don't eat people ...

Maiden songs essentially tell a story from the start to finish, and the instrumental parts of songs WILL make your mind produce images of the theme. Some songs can be ambiguous to imagine, for example, when I listen to the Sign Of The Cross, I can't really know what to imagine. ROTAM is an great...

Damn. 32 students/faculty down. 1 killer dead. This in the deadliest school shooting in US history. Damn, I feel sorry for what happened, since I express disgust at the shedding of innocent blood. For now, they're not sure of the motives. I hope justice, in any way can help shed light.

Songs with numbers! Gogogogo! My personal favorite is Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son, with its awesome story like lyrics, ominous intriguing theme and wicked instrumental section!

There was Rome, Mongols, The Holy Roman, Spain, Carthaginian, Alexander the Great, Prussian, Byzantine, Napoleon, The British, and a lot of empires that span centuries. Well, I made this thread on your opinions on how these great empires affected history, say your favorites and such, and what...

Many people say that their actions are ruled by fate or destiny or some predetermined stuff, and often when they screw up, sometimes even say they were fated to do that. I personally think of fate as a scapegoat of some sorts, and all of us mold our own lives. I'm a Catholic but predermination...
