Yeah, I probably will go. The venue is really small and intimate so pretty much all bands do well there.

I like what's on their MySpace page.

Oh absolutely!!!! .....hey....did you move out west??

Yeah, I've been out here since October of 2007. There are so many more good shows out here, but I guess that comes with moving to a town that's 13x bigger than where I lived in PA.

Yeah, Beachwood Sparks are coming to San Diego in a couple of days. Are you saying that I should go to the show?

Ask Bob Dylan for one of his. He uses them as lyrics stands.

Seriously, though, they are cool instruments. I would like one someday too, but I'm not sure how much use it would actually get.

That said, good luck!

What about the second question? That one seems like there should be common etiquette. Is it Bride's bother-in-law or Future brother-in-law?

If you don't want to put "Friend" (or whatever you'd put for a friend), I guess put "Bride's bother-in-law."

Groomsmen

Groom's brother

Seconded. Sorry to hear that you lost your brother. My brothers are going to be my groomsmen too, and I get a little choked up just thinking it.

Try Firefox, Safari, or the latest version of IE. I've heard a few limited reports of people having difficulties since the site was redesigned.

Kid. Charlemagne.

He was prepared to take the party down with him if he'd gotten the nomination.

Exactly.

Yes, it's worth it.

Too bad Katie Holmes didn't do this one.

That's a pretty strange song.

Thanks! And I totally agree with you on your assessment of the last two installments. This one I'm reasonably excited about. Hopefully it will be good.

If you look at the main page it says "Free Song... Sign up..."

So I did that, and then nothing happened.

For the life of me, I can't figure out how to get the free song. Can someone direct me or send the goddam thing to me?

Yeah, I know, but I guy can wish, can't he?

Poor old Ted, may he rot in a Federal pound-me-in-the ass prison.

Anyone ever read (right hand man) Paul Watkins' My Life With Charles Manson? A riveting, creepy book.

Wikipedia was plenty for me.

I am against the death penalty in general, as I do not think an imperfect system of justice can be trusted with the ultimate sanction. In the case of Manson and the family, however, I am willing to make an exception. It has been a tremendous waste of time and money to keep these people alive.

I agree that people shouldn't be put to death as long as there is any margin of error, but her death penalty had already been commuted. I tend to think that someone given the death penalty in the first place--commuted or not--shouldn't be released unless they're proven innocent.

What's your take on this, Bjorno?

Only if I can go by the name Lee Baby Simms.

I'm doing my part to combat global warming. I turn my AC up all the way all day, open all my windows, and leave the freezer open all day.

:lol

Damn, you're kind of not in a good mood today, huh?

Sorry if it seems that way. I am a hypocrite in (edit: at least) one way, specifically. I want to help save the environment, but at the same time, I have no faith that humanity will strike a balance with Earth before we're extinct.
