Wow, first you correct my Judd Parker reference, then you take a jab at my new handle... I might need to start complaining about all the mean people on VC!

Oops

1st saw that commercial in a movie theater and was disgusted, but... sacred?? Judd Parker is in it!

Fans of the 97s will appreciate the first letter in this segment.

It was time to for a change. Not too hard to figure out the new one. (The Artist Formerly Known as pifin01)

ALTWYS!!

Belated review of Blame it on Gravity on NPR Not a lot of love for this album on the board, but I gotta agree with the reviewer. It's on heavy rotation for me right now.

While I agree that trying to label the Beatles' as "conservative" is pretty ridiculous, I think this statement is equally ridiculous. Was Taxman a joke? The Beatles were being taxed by the British government like crazy then. Why? Because they were rich.

Ken Follett - Pillars of the Earth Because Oprah told me to. Honestly, everyone I know who's read this has said it's a great read, if not great literature.

Sounds A LOT like Pink Floyd's The Wall to me.

2 Great Norm MacDonald SNL Moments. 1) About a dozen times he said "...and that just proves my theory that Germans love David Hasselhoff." 2) Every time there was a list in Forbes or similar magazines about best & worst jobs, he'd quip, "and again, for the 10th year in a row, worst job: crack whore."

Doesn't that make you an agnostic?

Okay, so I work part-time at a bookstore. Tonight, a guy comments that we sell a lot of witchcraft books. "I wouldn't want to be responsible for that when Jesus comes." Later he comments, "Hmm... Dragonology. Do people think that stuff's not real? I mean, you sell that stuff to kids!" Turns out the guy was buying a calendar and picture books and using a check from his Baptist Mission. I don't know if that's how people imagine their charitable donations being spent, but who am I to judge?

Last day for me to post here with any frequency. My 111 7th graders start invading my space tomorrow.

To me, this is the arrogance of humanity. The evidence may be all around us, but we are simply unable to comprehend it. For 10,000+ years, there were fairly advance civilizations that could not determine that the earth revolved around the sun. FAITH is the key to my beliefs. You are welcome to be an atheist based upon the scientific evidence, it's hard to argue with you. You (like Hitchens, Dawkins, etc.) might believe those of us who have faith are deluding ourselves and maybe we are. So what? Edit: I meant to also say that atheists aren't any more or less arrogant than fundamentalis

Never mind. Did it on my own.

Okay, now I have it. Has anyone who has it bothered to break it up by song? The reason I ask is that I have a friend who just lost his mom. Even though "Goodbye Sweet Prince" is about a father's death, I know many of the lyrics will resonate w/ my friend and I want to put it on a mix CD for him. PM me if you have it. I don't really want to take the time to download Audacity, etc, etc.

No longer available.

I agree, best thing I listened to today (w/ possible exception of 49:00). And I've listened to some good stuff today.

My observation in the short time I've been actively on this board is that threads like this usually happen on Fridays. It's a pretty good Monday!

You may have a point. I bought that soon after it came out, but haven't listened to it (or Monster) for a long time. I just began to associate Monster and NAIHF with the post-Berry era, but I do recall liking several songs on each CD when they 1st came out.
