    Section 1. No Time - Guess Who vs. White Room - Cream While My Guitar Gently Weeps - The Beatles vs. Free Bird - Lynyrd Skynard vs. Strawberry Field Forever - The Beatles Ticket to Ride - The Beatles vs. Like A Rolling Stone - Bob Dylan The Boys Are Back In Town - Thin Lizzy vs. Sympathy for the Devil - The Rolling Stones A Day in the Life - The Beatles vs. All Along the Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix Section 2. Surrender - Cheap Trick vs. When the Levee Breaks- Led Zeppelin Dream On - Aerosmith vs. Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen Street Fighting Man - The Rolling Stones vs. Thunderstruck - AC/DC Stay With Me - The Faces vs. Pinball Wizard - The Who Crazy Train - Ozzy Osborne vs. Baba O'Reilly - The Who I don't know how others are voting, but I was basing this on "classic rock" not favorite song. I would have switched in some cases, Free Bird seems classic to the point of being a parody of itself, SFF is my fav in that group.
  2. QUOTE(YASNY @ Feb 10, 2006 -> 02:00 AM) You speculate this. I'll speculate that. You speculate a response, then I'll do likewise. People. Nobody here KNOWS a damn thing about what was or was not there and what our, and others, intellingence reports were saying. Saddam was a brutal dictator that was playing hardball with UN inspections and he was shooting at US planes assigned to enforce UN sanctions. He was giving the impression that he had WMD's. These things are facts. All this speculation is meaningless and petty. We do know, Bush and Powel told us. Remember the addresses to the UN? That is what they told the world to gather support for an invasion, most of the world said they were wrong, we invaded, then talked about Saddam being evil when none were found. Are you saying we can't believe what our government tells us? This just in http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/conte...&referrer=email
  3. QUOTE(kapkomet @ Feb 8, 2006 -> 02:25 PM) There's been a lot of speculation since before we went in that they moved the stuff to Syria. But that can't be true, because Bush has to pay for the WMD's not being there like the liberals knew all along. Damn those liberals for disagreeing. Thank God that conservative STFU when a Democrat was in the White House. No criticism there BTW over 2,000 Americans dead >>>>>>> a b.j. to express concern and protest about. And remember after they didn't find any, the official WH spin is a regime change was necessary to protect the Iraqi people. WMD was not the primary reason. It is tough to keep up with party spin. I don't have an answer to this but, how many American lives and money to we invest to save a life of a foreign national? Have 10 soldiers die to save one? Do we go trillions in debt, possibly bankrupting this country, to save another? What is the limit to our generosity?
  4. QUOTE(YASNY @ Feb 10, 2006 -> 01:44 AM) \ Second, the first response is the responsibility of the state, not the Feds. Not specific to this, but isn't it the ultimate responsibility to the Feds and the WH to assure the emergency response was happening, no matter from who? We created FEMA for a reason. What is really sad is people's opinions of what the Feds and especially the White House whould have done seem t hinge on wether or not you voted for the current imhabitants.
  5. QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Feb 9, 2006 -> 10:52 PM) Yeah, but he f***ed up everyone else's flight plans. WHich seems kind of dumb, why not just fly on to your destination? It's not like he's going to know the difference.

    QUOTE(Rex Hudler @ Feb 9, 2006 -> 07:15 PM) The cool thing about women in the South is they LOVE football. Super Bowl Sunday includes women. Hell, every Saturday from late August to January, includes women. Friday Night Texas High School Football is a big date and family night. They love NASCAR also Southern belles

    Aerosmith was a great concert, The Dead was a great weekend.
  9. Nice touch. If someone is going to kill themselves, I like someone that doesn't make a huge mess, and is unusual about it. Don't just slit the wrists in the bath tub, hanging in an airplane lav, that's cool. Too bad, I bet he had a great sense of humor.
  10. Congratulations

    QUOTE(Mplssoxfan @ Feb 9, 2006 -> 03:14 PM) Rock -- agreed -- any and all Marley. Klaus -- agreed -- any Dick Dale. The Robert Gordon version of "Summertime Blues". Sorry Tex, but I gotta go with a bunch of Buffett. I will do a bunch of Buffet, but that one will not be included. Changes in Latitudes is perhaps my favorite beach tune. Beach Boys Boys of Summer? I think I can do the old guy stuff, it's finding stuff for the 14-30 crowd that worries me.
  13. Of the low end beers, Miller is my favorite. Give me High Life. I'm just not a Lite fan. I always thought of Hamms and Old Style with the Cubs. Royal Crown >>>> Coke >>>>>>>> Pepsi

    If you were putting together a one hour beach mix, what would be on it? All genres. Must be PG-13 rated, so Parrotheads I don't care that you have a water bed filled up for me and you, we will not get drunk and screw

  17. Current US and International Law prohibits the assasination of foreign leaders. With current world events, including terrorism and regimes with WMD, should these laws be repealed and foreign leaders be targeted for assasinations? Rex Kickass has said no, they should never be targeted. W & O believes yes they should, but as a last resort. Please follow the following post order.

    I quit riding when I moved to South Texas, too hot, too many idiot drivers, too windy, and it is the only place you could wear out the middle of a motorcycle tire. If I ain't leaning, I ain't grinning. I had a Kawasaki Vulcan 1500. Sweet ride. I do miss it from time to time.

  22. QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Feb 8, 2006 -> 02:10 AM) Normally I to side with the majority opinion so it's glad it ended in a 29-29 tie. I didn't vote so I guess I break the tie & majority wins. But the ignore feature at the site puts a spin on this debate. What's an ignore feature analogy in the real world? I would say a degree of censorship as to what can be said in public. I would consider the right to say whatever you want in private or amongst private groups would be a fundamental minority right that the majority would always approve of. So the vote is meaningless because everyone has the right to censor another her at SOXTALK. When you respond to a person's post you have freely choosen to read it. No one compelled you & the person writing it certainly isn't posturing themselves to get notice. They certainly aren't saying it to get accepted either. They are just sharing what's on their mind. BS'g in the kitchen at work if you will. Good points, however, is an analogy that looks at society as a whole valid? Isn't this more analogous to a private party? If someone is at my house, at my party, and I want that person gone, even if the majority of party goers doesn't, isn't it my right to say adios? We are talking rights when in reality, we should be talking responsibilities. When someone throws open the doors and picks up the tab, don't we have a responsibility to be a good guest or, if we are unhappy with the rules, excercise our rights to leave? The guests righst shouldn't supercede the hosts rights.
