I Saw U2 Live Twice's definitions
1. a stone
2. a piece of crack cocaine that is smoked
3. AKA "rock'n'roll". It's the ultimate form of musical expression. It's roots are in American, British and Irish folk, country and western (the classic stuff - NOT that poofy crap of today), jazz, blues, bluegrass and other sources. Pioneered by Ike Turner, Johnny Cash, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, King Elvis, Bill Haley + the Comets, the Beach Boys and many more. Expanded, further defined and influenced even more by British bands like the Beatles, Rolling Stones and the Kinks and German bands like Kraftwerk. Now rock music is listened to any performed by people in every nation. It's an American cultural phenominae that has shaped the world.
4. to be cool. To rule, to be bad.
5. In the U.S. Navy this word is jargon for flunking an academic test.

1. Billy threw a rock at a glass house. Next came the sound of glass shattering.

4. The Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame is located in Cleveland, Ohio supposedly because the music got its name from a Cleveland slang term for sex.
5. Rise up! Gather round! Rock this place to the ground.
6. at a Rush concert someone behind me yelled, "GEDDY LEE, YEWWWW RAWHKK!". Because of the distance to the stage and the volume Geddy Lee and his Rush-mates Neil and Alex couldn't hear that, but they've been rocking for many years - they know.
7. Seaman Vincent: how did you do on the first Propulsion Engineering Basics test?
Seaman James: I aced it.

Get the rock mug.quite simply, it's a "portable keyboard". It's a small portable synthesizer (with keys of course) that has a handle similar to that of a guitar. The neck is usually kind of thick but still can be gripped by one hand. It may sport switches and buttons to alter the sounds being played. Keytars are convienient.
Jan Hammer of "Miami Vice" and Mahavishnu Orchestra fame glued a handle on his Probe keyboard for ease of walking around on stage while playing. This may be an example of an early keytar, but it wasn't called by that word yet.
Keytars first got notoriety in the 80s but are certainly not restricted to that decade by any means. Notable keytar players include Howard Jones AKA "Hojo", Jean Michel Jarre, the members of the Moog Cookbook and more. Hit videos by artists as diverse as Don Henley, Michael Jackson, Herbie Hancock, Janet Jackson , John Parr and even Shania Twain have featured backing musicians playing keytars.

Get the keytar mug.1. a refreshing bubbly soft drink that is loaded with jet fuel!
2. the reason why the Beatles changed the name of their epic album to Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
3. said soft drink company that made a bet and did their best to weasel out of it.

1. I'm a Pepper, he's a Pepper, she's a Pepper, we're a Pepper, would you like to be a Pepper too? Be a Pepper. Drink Dr. Pepper.
2. Dr. Pepper got promoted to Seargeant.
3. Last year I got to listen to the entire Guns N Roses catalog online, including the too-often-delayed long-awaited-and-overdue new album "Chinese Democracy". It's a really good album, it kicks some major ass and has a lot of diversity in the songs. Just don't take so long next time, OK fellas?
After hearing the last track there was a link taking me to "drpepper.com". Dr. Pepper made a bet: if the new GNR album was released last year then EVERYONE in America would get a free drink. There was a time limit window for this, however. You had to hit a link to register in order to get a coupon (to be printed) good for a FREE 20 oz. bottle of Dr. Pepper. I couldn't get ON there! I was on hold FOREVER. Apparently so were many other people. The corporation heads decided to "extend" the time window by a few hours. When I FINALLY got on the desired page there was a message that said that I was too late - the window of opportunity had expired by 15 minutes! Lemme see, we have over 265 million people in the United States so that would mean how many drinks...

Get the Dr. Pepper mug.1. In the liner notes of Jimmy Buffett's new CD ("Buffet Hotel") Jimmy explains the stories behind each song on the disc. For the number "Surfing In A Hurricane" he describes his early career on the Alabama shore yet having a strong desire of playing in California - "the Mecca of songwriters and surf culture." He compares the Alabama surf waves to the bigger ones in "Califuckinfornia".
2. you can also use the term to express amazement and delight for the State of Cali.

1. My last year in the military was spent in various commands in Northern California. I've been in San Francisco, Sausalito, Mount Tamalpais, Napa Valley, Monterey, Sacromento, Alcatraz and other exciting places. Califuckinfornia is a state everyone should go visit. I love it.
2. Huey Lewis and the News, Green Day, the Tubes, Tommy Tutone, the Grateful Dead, the Doobie Brothers, the Eagles, Van Halen, NWA, Ratt,the Beach Boys, Hiroshima, Dead Kennedys and many more important music acts come from Califuckinfornia, dude! That's where's it's at.

Get the Califuckinfornia mug.an obnoxious blowhard who pushes his/her ideas on others in an overbearing way, usually knowing nothing about the topic. Such person often thinks that other people are ignorant and stupid, and they often slam and belittle people who know the real facts. They think they are experts but they know zero.
1. AM radio used to have good music and radio plays and such. Since late 1992 it's been polluted with extreme political hateful loudmouths like Rubbish Limberger and other dummies. The morons have hijacked the AM dial.
2. You're a loudmouth baby
You better shut it up
I'm gonna beat you up
'Cause you're a loudmouth babe
RAMONES

Get the loudmouth mug.the middle finger, the bird, flipping off, it's an obscene gesture used in the United States of America and Canada. It means basically "fuck you".
I got gas at a Sunoco station and as I drove around a corner there were stupid soccer moms holding up signs to support a school district levy set up by a bunch of greedy-ass corrupt asshole pukes who never gave the tax levy money to the schools that needed it - (during all the years I was in school we NEVER got any new updated textbooks until my senior year!). The school board is always crying for more dough and when they get it they boost their salaries. I gave those manipulative bastards the Finger Award as I drove on by. There were some propped-up children on the grass holding up some propaganda signs as well - that's child exploitation! That's wrong.

Get the The Finger Award mug.1. a modern art sculpture in Texas that resembles the famous British Stonehenge except that Cadillac cars are buried front down at an angle instead of large rocks. Since this is an art display, its statement could be interpreted in various ways by the viewer.
2. a popular song by rocker Bruce Springsteen from his double album "The River" which hit in the early 80s. This album became the first of many Number One albums for the Boss.

In the liner notes for "The River" there is a picture of the Cadillac Ranch sculpture. Ironically enough, the song "Cadillac Ranch" delves into the themes of maturing, maturity, aging and death. Pretty heady stuff. Bruce's version of this tune live is even better - check it out.
