Hey everybody! I've got my trade-list on the hipfans server up & running. I was going to wait until I got all my live music listed on the page, but it will take a while. So far I've listed only the Tragically Hip shows, and most of my live DVDs. Time permitting, I'll get it fully updated over the next few weeks.....

Feel free to browse the collection, and contact me to set up a trade or b&p Smile

Don't forget to talk to Chris if you're interested in putting your trade-list online too :thumb:

Joseph Heath's new book "The Rebel Sell" contains a section on Freud's "superego," the part of the mind that suppresses our desires to do whatever we want, when we want. He details some of the societal pressures which shape each era's superego, and how they, and we, have evolved. (He also notes that Pink Floyd's "The Wall" refers to the superego... nifty huh?)

Anyway, here's some helpful hints that are sure to impress:

13th Century table manners book:

- Those who like mustard and salt should avoid the filthy habit of putting their fingers into them

- It is unseemly to blow ones nose into the tablecloth

- Do not spit on or over the dinner table

- It is bad manners to keep your helmet on when serving ladies

15th Century table manners book:

- Before you sit down, make sure that your seat has not been fouled

- While seated for dinner, do not touch yourself under your clothes with your bare hands

- Do not offer anyone a piece of food you have bitten into

16th Century manners booklet:

- Let no one, whoever he may be, before, during or after meals, foul the staircases or closets with urine or other filth. Direct them to the subscribed and suitable places for such relief

18th Century handbook:

- If you pass a person who is relieving himself, you should act as if you do not see him, as it would be impolite to greet him

- If wind from the body can be purged without sound, that is best. It should be done alone, if not, it should be in accordance with the ancient proverb, let a cough hide the sound.

By the 19th century, spittoons in front hallways were common in colonial Canada. An 1859 publication ended the fun for all of us: "Spitting is at all times a disgusting habit - never indulge in it." However, another pamphlet advises that it was acceptable to spit on the floor during dinner, "as long as the foot covers the sputum."

And from the zany and backward days of 1979: "A lady should eat before going out on a dinner date, so that she will be able to nibble delicately on her food at the restaurant and not look like a pig."

"Rice will close his career with 38 NFL records, including those for career receptions (1,549), yards receiving (22,895) and touchdowns receiving (197)"

Not only was Rice the best receiver ever but he was also a class act all the way. Are you paying attention Moss and Owens? This is how a football player is suppossed to act.

What an outstanding career, look at his numbers in 1996 Confusedhock:
