  1. Koch got it done yesterday when it mattered. Meanwhile Shingo's on the ropes here.
  2. The questions that try men's souls...
  3. Did I tell you I hate Jacque Jones yet?
  4. I was there and it sucked mightily...
  5. Uh... didn't we lose in Tampa Bay on the 4th last year???
  6. I get the point of CW's post, as do you I'm sure Kap, and sure I also see that it might be unfair to say people in tha Administration are looking for a literal Armageddon (sp?). But, it is quite true that many in the Administration are the same scary PNAC crowd that have signed off on a document HOPING for something like a 9-11 (hoping, not planning, this is not conspiracy theory it is there on page 66 of the PNAC blueprints, I am not making it up) - not because they revel in tragedy of this magnitude but because a 'catalyzing event' loke a 'modern Pearl Herbor' would remove some of the impediments (the pesky former will of Americans for justice and justification of action over vengeance) to the Pax Americana they so desire. Perle, Rove, Rummy, Wolfowitz, etc. are, to a man, very dangerous people with very dangerous idaes about what the world should look like. Baby Bush is a dangerous person because he is of like mind (such as it is) and has surrounded himself with coldly calculating advisors who do have bigt plans for the world and care not if the world happens to object.
  7. What is Tom Selleck? Sorry.... couldn't help myself. And I guess it was a gerbil in that particular urban legend, huh?
  8. LOL! She should probably keep her handle then, or should she ditch it and tell Michael Jackson it is available?
  9. If anybody other than Baby Bush was in office we would not be in a war with Iraq. People on both sides are dying for Bush Family Vendetta and Neo-Con Ideology. The Bush Administration has marginalized the futures of my children because it is going to be hard growing up American in the world for the next couple generations.
  10. Nuking a nation doesn't trump murder a few million times over? I realize you are PO'd by the Berg murder as are most, and that is why you're writing in such an incendiary and hyperbolic fashion as are many here. And I know nobody really wants to live to ever see the US repeat the most vile act in the history of human wartime by again using indiscriminate nuclear force on an enemy.
  11. This one was probably too easy for Hammerhead to chime in on... John's story is that Julian brought hame a crayon drawing he did in school of his friend Lucy, drawn in a sky full of diamonds. Insists teh LSD acronym was unintentional. I always believed the story since John (or any of them) never really denied when there was a drug influence in a composition. John said the three verses of I am teh Walrus were written during each of 3 separate acid trips (and the inspiration for the song was a kids schoolyard rhyme that he remembered had a line about 'yellow matter custard'. She Said She Said (here it is again) was based on a tripping Peter Fonda telling everybody "I know what it's like to be dead" at a party. The Dylan-turned-us-onto-weed influence is all over Rubber Soul...
  12. Cool description of the mix. That Tibetan Monk on the Mountain aura was popular with John around that time. Tomorrow Never Knows was recorded and mixed to gave essentially the same feel... "Turn off your mind, relax and float downstream..." Rain and She Said She Said are John at his best I think... fully open to suggestions from George Martin on arrangement and also for letting Paul and George really collaborate add their vocal fluorishes and their instrumentation as they saw fit. George's giutar on She said is signature work as is Paul's bass on Rain. Nobody worrying about being overshadowed and the result is near perfect music. I'm Only Sleeping is right up there too in that regard.
  13. One of mine too. Mother Nature's Son and Rocky Raccoon are the two Paul White Album songs I have always kept in the performance rotation when playing out acoustic.
  14. DJ just noted that Diaz gave up one more HR this game than he did all season so far in Charlotte.
  15. LOL!!! Felix starts trotting off after the second strike to Raffy... and the break-in music starts, so he fooled somebody!
  16. Cool, you're famous (almost).
