lever-age ... points to ponder

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Anyone remember the 80s hair/glam metal band Vixen?

A few of the members were pretty hot stuff, not quite Nancy Wilson, but still... not too shabby.

You nailed glam metal in one sentence :D

Easier than transitioning. No buyer's remorse.

The originator of the group died, Jan something.

I think the rest of them still play.

Met Cyndi in a bar/restaurant in Belize, once you get past the accent, she was cool.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Yeah....i find it cool that Ravi Shankar is Norah Jones father.

I guess it's a Beatles thing for me.

Cyndi did some nice things beyond the '80's pop, WWF stuff.

With Jonny Lang for instance.

Well, now you have to add Madge to the list... whether you think she is a virgin or not.
