My feelings too. I think the only way it would work is if you were a rock artist and the song was played at your funeral OR the actual artist who recorded the song played it at your funeral. I was at a funeral a few months ago and someone sang "Amazing Grace" but Michael Boltoned it all up. Many people were moved, and the singer did very well, technically. I was left biting my tongue to avoid laughing at the overwrought experience.

Just googled that. I thought I knew Simon & Garfunkel well enough to recognize all their song titles. Guess not.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/07/06/AR2009070601197_pf.html He may be more responsible than anybody for the escalation of Vietnam, but anyone who has watched Fog of War knows it's a disaster that haunted him the remainder of his years. If you haven't seen that movie, do yourself a favor. It covers much more than Vietnam. Basically the end of WWII through the Cold War. It's an important historical document.

Frost/Nixon. Excellent! Didn't even know Sam Rockwell and Oliver Platt were in it. They usually make anything they're in better.

Borg, Sampras, Federer in a round robin each at their peak using the same equipment. That would be something.

That guy was one tough QB. A shocking, sad loss.

Benjamin Button. Meh. Some nice moments and I'm not sorry I watched it, but it left me underwhelmed for sure.

Yeah, kinda weird. Eclectic indie artists, MJ and Prince, hmmm...

Good point, re-reading the NYT question, it was a pretty blunt question to ask and maybe deserved that blunt answer. -

Pretty blunt answer compared to his interview in Time which I'm sure was posted elsewhere. -

Glad to see you giving SBS some much needed love here, but better than ST?? Wow! Mine will change because I need to give W(TA) more time to settle in. YHF ST BT SBS AGIB W(TA) AM BTW, all are excellent albums. Well... AM is VERY good.

Just got an e-mail, it's good on Friday only. If you don't get their e-mail coupons they will often honor them if you ask (and belong to their free rewards program).

I like the quote... obviously (even though it stopped being true about 5 minutes after he said it).

Kaelin's Restaurant claims to have invented the cheeseburger and serves pretty good ones. Last time I was there I went to a more upscale restaurant that was something of a Louisville classic. If I recall it was on Bardstown Rd. or in that (cool, old) neighborhood. I thought the name had dog or cow in it, but google hasn't helped me find it. If Churchill Downs is still in season, that's a fun place to people watch. You have all classes represented.

I haven't read the book, but I think it's very courageous to tell a story this honestly that's intended for younger audiences.

I am an SBS defender. I think it's a solid album. I've only listened to W(TA) a handful of times, but I think there's more stylistic diversity than SBS, so I voted W(TA). I'd like to revisit this poll in 3 or 4 months.

Still not fixed. I get weekly new release e-mails from AMG. I actually clicked on both the Paisley and Wilco albums to read their reviews. I read Paisley's then started reading Wilco's (alphabetical order, not importance). I figured it was a bug in the site or my browser!
