"The boy had removed his shirt, revealing golden, tanned skin taunt against sinewy muscle. The cutoff shorts he wore rode low on his hips and came to his mid-thigh, showing off long, slender legs. He looked like a super model straight from a woman's magazine, a beautiful creature posed to seduce the eye." |

| 2. | Cameo | ||
|
An outlandish, in-your-face stage presence, a strange sense of humor, and a hard-driving funk sound that criss-crossed a few musical boundaries earned Cameo countless comparisons to Parliament/Funkadelic in their early days. However, Cameo eventually wore off accusations of being derivative by transcending their influences and outlasting almost every single one of them. Throughout the '70s and '80s, the group remained up with the times and occasionally crept ahead of them, such that they became influences themselves upon younger generations of R&B and hip-hop acts. By the time the group's popularity started to fizzle in the late '80s, a series of R&B chart hits -- ranging from greasy funk workouts to synthesized funk swingers to dripping ballads -- was left in their wake. Further separating Cameo from their forebears, they didn't have a diaper-clad guitarist. Instead, they had a codpiece-wearing lead vocalist.

That vocalist was Larry Blackmon. In 1974, the ex-Juilliard student and New York City club-goer instigated a funk band with a membership of 13 called the New York City Players. Blackmon, Tomi Jenkins, and Nathan Leftenant formed the group's nucleus. The Casablanca label signed the group to their Chocolate City offshoot, and shortly after that, the group changed its name to Cameo. Their excellent debut album, 1977's Cardiac Arrest, was highlighted by four singles. Three of those hit the Billboard R&B chart: "Rigor Mortis" (number 33), "Funk Funk" (number 20), and "... |

| 4. | boner pool | ||
|
Playing pool, except replace the pool cues with the quivering, burning hot boners. Invented by several college students when they realized that the pool cues had been misappropriated. Before each shot, the player rub their sweating, urgent boners with blue chalk as a lubricant. If the player scratches, the it is termed a busted nut. Bouncing the ball off one or more of the walls is termed boner banking or more popularly the money shot. When one ball blocks another it is called a cock-block. Condoms are not allowed in boner pool. Only the man's raw, tense, sweating, sinewy boner will suffice. The winner of boner pool (or boner billiards in professional tournaments) is crowned King Dick. James: Dammit. Ouch. I got chalk in my boner-hole.
Tyler: You got blue chalk in your moist boner-hole? That must burn. Brandon: That is panty-moistening boner pool event. Josh: My boner is so unwieldy. Ian: Let me give you two hands. Josh: You grab my boner towards the stalk, and I will maneuver my boner with both hands on the head. My thick bulbous mushroom head. Tyler: Thrust with your ripped tight pelvis. Brandon: You're very skillful. Where did you learn to handle a boner like that? James: Church camp. |

The NW is a forum found on the internet tragedy neopets.com It usually has a group of hyperliterate people that visit regularly, hence their group name, "Regs" These groups faze in and out, with only a few people consitantly visiting for more than a year or so. The Regs come in cycles. The NW also has(or had) a wide variety of flamers who have pretty much cleaned out the closet of spammers, noobs, and just plain idiots. However, in the last few months, the flamers have abandoned the NW and the bad people are seeping back in. At one time, the NW may have been on topic, and there were topics about writing. Most Regs refer to the time as "A load of bullshit" but it existed, way back when Neopets got it's start. History of the NW: Five years ago, I joined this online community. Back then, I was younger and I don't remember it so well. However, I do remember that it was slightly on topic and I could post my writing there. Then, after a year or so there, the big flamers made their entrance. I went through that and wrote a history on it. Here it is: Flame Wars: A History In the summer of 2005, a new user came unto these boards. The NW boards. He called himself Vaspim, and was to change the n00b riddled NW boards forever(well, for about two months). He started o... |

--------------------------------- NASCAR spokesman Jim Hunter, a vibrant 60-something known well for donning sweater vests and blazing Salem Lights, moseyed into his Daytona Beach office one morning last month and noticed a peculiar picture tacked to the wall opposite his desk. His head was positioned atop a sinewy frame of shredded muscle. "It was great, but I've never even dreamed of having a body like that!" Hunter howled. "But it's nice of Carl to work so hard for my benefit." Carl, as in Edwards. If you're a NASCAR fan and have so much as a faint pulse, you've seen Edwards' ridiculous physique on the cover of ESPN The Magazine. Dude is ripped. Quite honestly, this very column is Edwards' biggest fear. He chuckled when I called to bust his chops about the David impression. But he also requested I express his concern that the photograph would be viewed as shameless self-promotion. He wants it to speak for itself, just hopes it doesn't say, "Hey, look at me." It wasn't done out of haughtiness or pompousness. That wasn't the intention at all. "Knowing Carl, as laid back as he is -- he just doesn't care, so it wasn't meant to be cocky. Not ... |
