Replacements - Tim Let it Be is so damn iconic and they follow it up with that. I'd put it up, but I'm on an iPad and it's a pain.

This is why the 2 party system sucks. I have done many of those things, but a handful of party leaders set the agenda. We saw a little compromise last month, and maybe more will be on the way. Of course, the biggest key to deficit reduction is a growing economy.

Did you read my post? I am a registered Republican and a fiscal conservative and for some tax increases. Granted, I'm in the minority, but there are others of us out there. We just get ignored because we are not too loud and not too interesting. That and we go against both the left and right wing's media narrative.

Fact: every dollar spent on interest on the national debt is a dollar we can't spend on other things or wipe off the budget altogether.

I think we're stuck in an awful Catch-22. Protectionism won't improve the economy, and manufacturing jobs aren't coming back. To your first point, as a fiscal conservative who thinks the top has been able to slide too much for too long, I believe part of the solution is increasing taxes for the top wage earners AND those who make a living of capital gains. Capital gains taxes being lower makes sense to encourage investment, but when your prime source of income is capital gains, then a good chunk of it should be taxed like everyone else's income. The Bush tax cuts made sense when he in

Unfortunately, the LP the did together sucked. Would've loved to seen that show. Glad to have seen Crazy Horse on the Ragged Glory tour with Sonic Youth opening and some other 90s alt act (Social Distortion?) opening. Loved the baby boomers' reactions to SY.

A great park. I haven't been there since the remodel.

Absolutely agree. Love the mixing of the 2 guitar parts of the title track. So damn good.

Not the Boston Gardens nostalgia thread I was expecting.

Also, it's killing the larvae of the Emerald Ash Borer which is killing Ash tress all through the midwest.

I think the Rolling Stones sound way better in the studio. After reading the Keith bio, I feel that opinion is validated. The guy experimented like crazy. Might say the same for The Who, but when Pete, Keith, and John were in form, probably not. There are lots of other band who sounded so different live and in studio that it's hard to pick. Sugar comes to mind. Bob Mould produced Copper Blue and Beaster like crazy and I love listening to those as loud as possible. Live, they played them as loud as possible, but completely stripped down, raw and in your face.

I love American Beauty and Workingman's Dead. Never understood why people are so down on their studio output with those 2 gems. It's been a long time since I listened to it, but I remember really liking Blues for Allah as well.

i have another day off tomorrow. I teach in a different district than my kids. Kinda hoping they have to go to school.

Have you heard Iggy's remaster?

Just walked my daughter a block to a friend's house here in Des Moines. On the way home, I noticed she dropped her doll's hairbrush along the way. I ran it back to the friend's house. That extra 90 seconds or so of outside time nearly killed me.

Right..... NOW!

Leaf is probably a bit strong. Time will tell this wisdom of this decision. I'm a Vikings fan, we have quarterback issues well beyond the Bears. Having said that, I am glad to see the Bears hitch their wagon to him.

He's more of a head case than a leader. Talented, but then again, so were Jeff George and Ryan Leaf. He's not as much of a headcase as either of them, but it will be a factor in his success.

Yeah, but maybe not for 5 1/2 years, unless you knew him personally.

That sounds awesome.

Your are an evil,evil man.

I believe you know a helluva lot more than me about sports, but I suspect time will prove you wrong on this one.
