  1. which would be why this case was bad. essentially, the DA put the jock frat boy stereotype on trial - possibly because he felt the odds were good in convicting them for who they are rather than what they did (or didn't do).
  2. it's the only spike lee movie i've seen more than twice. i've suggested it to many of my students so that they might examine the "blackface on the inside" sort of phenomena. it was a heavy-handed flick, but had some seriously good acting and a very worthwhile message. good call.
  3. i like UT way more than wilco. you guys gotta get those UT records. unethically and illegally steal them if you have to, but now that they're back in print and not $45 a disc, you should get in on these discs.
  4. until americans have to sacrifice, this war won't end. a draft might be an exit strategy.
  5. it's a sad commentary that such behavior from three college athletes was so incredibly believable. these guys were innocent apparently and the DA will likely be disbarred. however, people are raped all the time all over the world and it never gets reported. this case was an absolute miscarriage, but i seriously hope it does not cloud DAs and prosecutors from believing a victim with even a shred of evidence. that would be the real tragedy.
  6. i didn't have him in this year's dead pool. he's one of the few people i couldn't bring myself to adding. he's the best. i use his stuff a lot in my classes and read his stuff frequently. i'm wearing my kilgore trout jacket in memoriam.
  7. this was a manufactured crisis to make imus relevant again. he's not. i think this was far more misogynistic than racist. he called them "hardcore hoes" before he said nappy-headed. the guy's a dick deluxe and a hack. he shouldn't be fired for his comment, but because he's a shitty broadcaster no-talent hasbeen.
  8. no alt was released before the rules changed on song licenses in 1996. as long as this guy has a used copy somewhere, he's legal to dload the song again. but in general, i agree with a-man on this.
  9. are you talking about the hawaiian lap steel?
  10. kiss - love gun van halen - jamie's cryin prince - darlin nikki twisted sister - stay hungry iron maiden - wasted years slayer - angel of death minor threat - betrayed black flag - my war minutemen - i felt like a gringo descendents - clean sheets snfu - painful reminder cure - lullaby jane's addiction - sympathy for the devil elliott - superstitions in travel nomeansno - big dick drag the river - get drunk i started taking this seriously, but this is way too hard.
  11. this has been the most expensive album ever made and you guys are downloading it? for shame! the biggest question on my mind is how long will "chinese democracy" be a culturally relevant punchline.
  12. watching this must be kinda like how FDR looked at the nazis and soviets shooting at each other during WWII. could they both just go nuts and hurt each other?
  13. the good shepherd was a big letdown. it was well acted, but flat in pretty much every other aspect.
  14. if you're stealing like i am, you're rolling the dice. i'll keep stealing and then buying because i'm tired of getting burned on shit records. since i got the napster running close to a decade ago, i've only bought like 5 shitty records. i used to get that many per month before the internet tubes delivered the hot rock.
  15. closed is the best one, but they're all great.
  16. half drunk goes well with drag the river (more like drag the liver).
  17. i only have songs to fix angels and the new one. if songs to fix angels is out of print, let me know via PM and i'd be glad to share the love.
  18. i endorse this thread. i love drag the river so much.
  19. i like the sole print on the JD shoes, but the fact they are white is off-putting. that said, it's pretty lame to have band endorsed shoes on the market. i'd still like to get the descendents vans though (i already have the slayers). i'm a trendy sucker.
  20. my favorite part: "Each package comes pre-sealed in a watertight and nanobot-resistant bag made of biodegradable corn-based plastic."
  21. i tried to get my free month, but it never happened. it wasn't worth chasing down for $20. i watched the anniversary party last night. it was good. the hot chick to normal chick ratio of that movie was off the charts.
  22. motorhead is a cool name. i have a friend who plans on naming his first son "Robocop" -- and he's serious. the only way that baby name is inappropriate is if the parents were accurate and called her "pre-justice metallica with cliff on bass or better yet with dave mustaine on guitar". that's a better indication of a REAL metal band, but would be difficult for a driver's license.
  23. suburban home records is selling the post-popes stuff (duvall, tribute album, mike's solo stuff) for $10. I thought some people around here might care. http://stores.channeladvisor.com/IndieHQ/I...smokingpopeslot?
  24. he's a vampire. nothing else makes sense.
