Yes - Earl was in a coma in the hospital, and they were trying to wake him up. I guess the biggest surprise was - Paris Hilton was in the episode. Speaking of Paris Hilton in the episode of My Name Is Earl that I thought of while looking at a thread about The Office, she still looks like a 12 year boy to me.

Interesting - maybe Solace can do something.

Speaking of The Office, last week, there was a new episode of My Name Is Earl on - I did not know that - I almost missed it.

I disagree - but we have already had this talk about a thousand times on here.

What we should do is let the people of Tibet have that place in Texas and send those child raping polygamist (so called christians) over to Tibet.

I think he did just that - before he joined Wilco.

I could see having such a deal - if you lived in the mountains - but I don't see a need for one in an urban environment.

I noticed that the other day - when I was trying to find Autumn Defense set lists.

I think you are right. I actually see at least one Hummer just about every morning.

This one?

People seem to prefer starting the same thread over and over again here instead of adding to an existing thread. Plus - if you make a section for one thing, everyone will want a section for something. I agree with you - but I just don't see it happening. It would be cool to have one Ryan Adams thread instead of say, twenty of them.

I was sticking a WIlco lyric in there - because like Ryan, I am not right in the head. I rather like your idea - and I think I have asked for such a thing before - but I believe the idea was rejected.

I don't own a car - but I often wonder how people afford to fuel all the Hummers, Cadillac Escalades, etc. that I see the college kids driving around here.

The force is strong in this one. Although, I doubt we could all come to a unified theory of every band that should go in such a section.

I find half of this post funny - the other half not funny.

That's what she said.

I suppose I am being too general in my comments - I know someone who once exchanged actual hand written letters with Pete Townshend. I can't see Jay Farrar doing that. As far as Ryan goes, he does post on the Ryan Adams Archive message board - so that is something. Also, Ian Hunter, Richard Thompson, and (some others I can't think of at the moment), have a section on their websites where they actually answer fans questions. I think that is pretty cool.

Exactly

I am used to larger than life rock stars - that is rock and roll to me - swagger, ego, sexual energy, etc. It was not until I got into country/alt. country that I ever viewed musicians as so-called normal down to earth people. OF course - sometimes we think bands are a certain way - "for the people" - and it is later revealed that they are money and power mad just like whatever band they just put down in an interview last week. Case in Point: Nirvana. I don't see Ryan as being the way people here are describing him - he seems down to earth to me.

Most people I know - only listen to whatever the current hit of the week is - and I doubt they ever think about the quailty of the Mp3 they got via Walmart or iTunes. I once tried to explain to someone I know the difference bewteen WAV/FLAC/Mp3 files and what the deal was with Mp3 bit rates - and they looked at me like I was making the shit up.

Doh!

I sometimes snag stuff - mainly new stuff such as the new REM album - that way I don't blow money on something I won't listen to again. I buy cds though - there was a time I use to buy a cd almost everyday - but I have not done that for a long time now. I like to go to record stores and look around - and those days are pretty much gone - where I live anyhow. I'd say within the next 10 years or less, cds will go the way of the record album.
