    okay!  here's something different... a TRIVIA question!  we were just
    discussing this for some reason this morning at work, and figured id
    post it for everybody.
    
    name the 5 original VJ's from MTV.
    
    

    
    	I'll start ...
    
    	Martha Quinn
    

    Adam Curry, Mark Whatzisname, Martha Quinn,...
    
    Hey, I wanna see if I can set a record for the first line with
    the least number of words/letters from a lyric.
    
    Ready??? 
    
    Here it is:
    
    
    
    
    
    
    		...yeah.

    
    db's not doing well, adam curry is not one, and mark whassisname isnt
    good enuf :')
    

    
    this whole discussion sparked up though over the fact that adam curry
    was on the internet last night in an IRC channel.
    

    
    	Mark Parenteau?
    
    	RE: db
    
    	That'd be "Shine", wouldn't it?
    

    JJ Jackson...
    um ... Black... the blonde chick with dark roots...
    Martha Quinn
    The guy with dark curly hair...
    The guy with blonde, straight hair (not Adam Curry; he was much
    later).
    
    Geez... why can I only seem to remember them by their hair?? :-)
    
    -b

    
    haha!  yeah, jj jackson is one of them....  
    the "black" is close...
    
    so we got 2 so far!
    

    Actually, the more I think of it, the other chick's first
    name was "Anita"... Anita Blackwell maybe?
    
    -b

    
    	Rita Blakemoor?
    

    
    	Curry was doing the internet thing again huh?  A friend
    	of mine was "talking" to him on the chat thing the other
    	night.
    

    
    	Ahah!!  Just remembered her name ... Nina Blackwood.
    

    
    I believe the final two are ... Alan Hunter and Mark Goodman.
    
    I knew all that MTV watching would come in handy sooner or later.
    
    -Dave

    COOL!!!

    
    alan hunter
    adam goodman
    jj jackson
    martha quinn
    
    and nobody has QUITE gotten her name right, but its
    
    anita blackwood
    
    

    
    oops, i meant mark goodman... i knew a kid named adam goodman in high
    school
    

    
    
    Isnt it barry goodman?

    
    OOPs collisions-- Mark  is right !

    Wow, it's been more than 2 years since anyone's entered a trivia type
    question!
    
    So here's a fairly difficult one.
    
    	The band now know as "The Barstool Prophets" were once known as
    "*** ***********" but had to change their name because of it being the
    same as this just recently popular band.
    
    Hints- The Barstool Prophets named their first album "Deflowered" in
    memory of the groups first name.
    
    	J

    
    	Well, that's a tough one.  8^)
    
    	I had no clue what the answer was until I got to your hint.  And
    	the least you could have done was not replace every letter of the
    	answer with its own asterisk.  8^)
    

    
    re: .19
    
    interesting or sick p/n there buddy! ;-)
    
    And I was thinking air supppppply but that doesn't quite do it, and as
    for Deflowered.....I can think of virgin for some strange reason, but
    doesn't fit in either! ;-)
    
    

    Well the answer is (and I know Slab got it) "The Wallflowers".
    
    Mike, my p/n has to do with Jungian Theory which is some pretty wierd
    stuff that I won't go into detail about.  And more accurately, it's a
    line I stole from TOOL, from the song 3rd Eye.  FYI of course.  [^;=
    
    	J  

...which was "borrowed" directly from Bill Hicks comedy bits, ie.
"squeegieing my third eye" which is accomplished by taking hallucinogenic
drugs.

    
    re: last couple
    
    Just from that p/n I'll leave it alone! ;-)  Jungian eh? I'll leave
    that alone too!!! ;-)
    
    

    Beneath his hat the strangeness lays
    take it off
    he's got three eyes
