Oh, come on. You can't just instantaneously conjure up prose as good as Wolcott's. Give the man a little time. I'm sure he'll deliver.

Naw, # 9 was just album filler.


GravatarFuck U2. Unredeemably awful lead singer with worthlessly trite lyrics pretending to political sermons, U2 stood out because of a style and limited number of tricks they did with their guitars. They are like some of these other groups that seem to have been granted special status just for sticking around past a certain point.


GravatarOMG!! There's a David Hasselhoff encore on the Berlin stage! The crowd is rushing the stage!


Gravatar"Anyone think Pumkinhead will bring this up on MTP tomorrow?"
Yeah, sure. Little Timmeh will certainly NOT bring up Plame, Rove or Novak. He knows what side his bread is buttered on. He will most assuredly not bring up anything that reflects badly on BushCo. Gosh, if Tim-meh brings up the Plame investigation, me might not get Cheney, Rummy or Condi to appear on MTP.
He'll play stupid and pretend that he's never heard of Valerie Plame.


GravatarThe Scandal-Plagued Bush Administration....The Treasonous Bush Administration.... <

If a Bush scandal broke without the corporate media would it made a sound? Dozens of scandals and promotions and medals for all.


Gravatar# 9 was just album filler.

You have something against The Watusi?


Gravataromg -- cnn's next program coming up is called 'can we save them'. it's about eradication of poverty. how friggin tacky and a wee bit condescending..


Gravatar

Media Targets?

The IFJ is reporting that 17 Iraqi media personnel have been killed by U.S. troops.



GravatarFuck U2. Unredeemably awful lead singer with worthlessly trite lyrics pretending to political sermons, U2 stood out because of a style and limited number of tricks they did with their guitars.

Or maybe there's more to it than that.


Gravatarkei & yuri I second that! My dad sez Bono is a sanctimonious little prick.


GravatarRipley--when Mademoiselle worked retail, one of her regular customers was Hasselhoff's daughter. Dad, of course, was present with the credit card.


GravatarI liked U2 just fine until Joshua Tree.


GravatarWho's on Toronto? I have no background in rap....


GravatarGoing from McCartney to Destinys Child is like going from Eschaton to LGF. Yuch!!!!

"Germans love Davis Hasselhoff."


Gravataromg -- cnn's next program coming up is called 'can we save them'. it's about eradication of poverty. how friggin tacky and a wee bit condescending..

Dunno if anybody here listens to Chris Lydon on NPR, but he's got a new show called Open Source. Had a show a few weeks ago on this very topic: Jeffrey Sachs on Kenya.

He's got an associated blog, takes program suggestions from comments, and posts MP3s of the shows. Check it out.


GravatarHe was a sanctimonious little prick for using "free at last" to sell a better Britney pop track; he's an insufferable tool of the very power he imagines he resists by yelling at people for failing to accept the worst possible EU they can get.


GravatarWhat happens to Bush/Cheney/White House if Rove is actually (in fact) a traitor?

Nixon corrupted the integrity of US democracy for purely political reasons; Rove has corrupted US national security AND democracy for purely political reasons.

That's how I see it. Any thoughts?

GravatarAl Gore trumps the Terminator.

NYTimes on Villaraigosa inaugural:

When Mr. Villaraigosa introduced Mr. Gore, the crowd of about 2,000 gathered on the south lawn of city hall cheered heartily. A moment later, he acknowledged the presence of Governor Schwarzenegger, a Republican, who was met with a lusty chorus of boos. Mr. Villaraigosa quieted the crowd saying, "Excuse me, there will be civility today."


GravatarAndrew as you noted, this just goes to prove my theory:

Germans love David Hasselhoff.

And the worst job this year:

Junior Assistant Crackwhore Trainee.


GravatarOh, if anyone's bored now that the concert's winding down, and you haven't seen my earlier podwhore, you should really check out my latest podcast. No, really.


Gravatar4Legs--doesn't sound like you need to worry about Maxx. I've had new kitties get skitty like him, even after they'd appeared to initially adjust. He'll get past it and smother you 24/7 soon


GravatarThis quote from Capitol Buzz still concerns me:
So all they've got are notes indicating that Rove spoke to Cooper - not that Rove leaked Plame's name.

Is that really all they've got?


GravatarSallyh - I haven't been here very long today. I take it you didn't go to the inauguration?


GravatarHoly crap... Elliot Easton is playing All Along the Watchtower with these guys...


GravatarI GOT BLISTERS ON MY FINGERS!!!


GravatarYeah, U2 is so unpopular.

OYOH, his political stuff is pretty lame.

Paul O'Neill. Pshaw.

Anyone know what difference HE has actually made in ameliorating the African plight? Or would it have been similarly addressed without his *input*?

Not being snarky. Just askin'.


GravatarGoodnight atriots, I must retire to bed.

Keep things Free!

Ciao.


GravatarOr maybe he's simply among the many, many people who believe politics is a game of inches, and is willing to make hard compromises for long-term goals.

And then we have Ralph Nader.


GravatarNTodd and other debaters: consider this (for those who hesitate to click, a bunch of NY comedians set up a fake U2 impromptu concert on a local rooftop and people actually turn up and cheer.)


GravatarIs that really all they've got?

Sweetie, you seem to be behind just a bit.


GravatarI GOT BLISTERS ON MY FINGERS!!!

Is it 'my' or 'me'? Regardless, stop playing your fucking guitar and then you won't hurt yourself!


GravatarMena--I tried. Got up, started driving...major panic attack.


GravatarWhat's with all the Bono-pickin'? Y'all can bite my shiny metal ass. War is a great album by any measure in my book, and Bono's contributions to Wim Wenders' work are damn near perfect.

Besides, whether or not you agree with his goals, at least he's trying to do something constructive with his celebrity, which is more than can be said for a great many.


GravatarI'd like to see someone compile all the GOP and Bush Admin quotes regarding:
1. Lieing under oath
2. Treason
3. Playing politics w/ national security


Well some of the quotes on lying to a grand jury from the Clinton impeachment hearings here anyway from Graham, Frist et. al.

Will be interesting to see how they find this applies to Unca Karl now.


GravatarNow Joey Kramer is on with them and Todd from Buck Cherry... Walk This Way


GravatarNot sure what shit the Canadian feed has right now, but my understanding is Neil Young is gonna close it.

Hope it's soon. Real soon.

That'll teach me not to eat!

Tre cool.


GravatarSallyh - Oh dear. This thing seems to be intruding on you life more and more. I hope you can find something that will help. I have to say though, that some days a panic attack seems like aperfectly rational response to the world we're living in.


GravatarMena--I plan to seek medical attention for it. I nearly had one today on the way to Trader Joe's. I'm still leaving the house daily, but not comfortably.

GravatarWhat's the allusion to Helter Skelter? I'm a little slow today.


GravatarThere's a whole sequence in the backwards "Revolution #9" that starts with a car crash, a guy screaming as he's engulfed by flames, followed by a choir of heavenly angels.

Lennon loved putting those tapes together. It was somewhat more than album filler, as he did several entire albums of just this sort of stuff.

BTW, I like to think if Lennon were alive today, he'd be sampling and rapping like a motherfucker!


GravatarI can only imagine what a John Lennon/Public Enemy collab would sound like!


GravatarSallyh, you have my sympathy. I have bouts of anxiety myself. No fun.

SD


GravatarBTW, I like to think if Lennon were alive today, he'd be sampling and rapping like a motherfucker!

And every album would have two weird-assed Yoko songs where she's screeching like a chicken.


GravatarSallyh - maybe Tom Cruise can help you out.

Okay, seriously, sorry about the anxiety. Sending positive vibes your way.


GravatarSallyh - generalised or freeway-specific? With the latter I'm very familiar - I've lost the casual ability to drive curves on highways, but it's getting better. The former - drugs are the answer. Drug intervention first to break the cycle. Wellbutrin is best - no weight issues. Modern life's a bitch - modern life without wheels in LA is impossible.

Gravatardave™®© -

Sorry on the # 9 stuff.

I was jes talking IMHO.


GravatarI'd be a much happier person if I ever realized that it wasn't all about me. Most of my peers realized this at age 15. I still have not figured it out. It's tragic. Advice?


GravatarAnd every album would have two weird-assed Yoko songs where she's screeching like a chicken.

Hey, if it meant he was alive, I'd say, let's have a double album!


GravatarUSA Today tell us about the "last throes":

Pace of troop deaths up in Iraq

U.S. military deaths in Iraq increased by about one-third in the past year, even as Iraq established its own government and assumed more responsibility for battling the insurgency.

At least 882 U.S. troops died in the 12 months through Thursday, up from 657 in the preceding year, according to a USA TODAY analysis of Defense Department numbers. Iraqis assumed sovereignty a year ago this week, part of a U.S. strategy to lessen the visibility of U.S. troops and shift more responsibility for security to Iraq forces.

Lately, insurgents have made roadside bombs deadlier and deployed more car and suicide bombs.

Marine Lt. Gen. James Conway said at a Pentagon briefing Thursday that insurgents are increasing their use of the type of attack "that gives you the big blast and possibly causes more casualties."

"The insurgency is shifting all the time," Maj. Gen. William Webster, commander of U.S. troops in Baghdad, said recently. "This is a learning enemy."

In June, 79 U.S. servicemembers died in Iraq, about as many as in May.

President Bush has counseled patience with the mission. In marking the anniversary of sovereignty Tuesday night, he warned that there will be "tough moments that test America's resolve" in Iraq.

The insurgents' continually shifting tactics have frustrated U.S. and Iraqi military efforts to halt their attacks. For example, offensives in Fallujah and other insurgent strongholds deprived the militants of havens and forced them to scatter them throughout the country. The insurgents then regrouped in scattered pockets. The increasing use of car bombs may be part of the insurgents' reaction to the offensives that took away their secure bases.

Car bombs inflict maximum damage with minimum resources, Air Force Brig. Gen. Donald Alston, the chief U.S. military spokesman in Iraq, said Thursday.

"They've gone to more spectacular systems that could inflict more casualties per attack, likely because they can't sustain a high volume of attacks," Alston said.

The military cautions against drawing conclusions from spikes in violence. Attacks typically come in waves, and militants use the lulls between those waves to regroup, train and choose new targets.

For example, there were a record 140 car bombs in May and 135 in April. In June, the number dropped to 70, plus 18 that were discovered before they were detonated, according to the U.S. military.

Insurgents have also created more dangerous roadside bombs designed to penetrate the American military's heavily armored vehicles. "Shaped charges" are designed to concentrate the blast in a single area, increasing the chance of penetrating armor.

"We have lost soldiers and/or Marines to some of these devices," Conway said at an earlier briefing.

U.S. troops continue to train Iraqi forces. There are currently more than 168,500 trained and equipped Iraqi security forces, though not all are battle-ready.


GravatarHere's some "advice", go fuck yourself.


GravatarBTW, I like to think if Lennon were alive today, he'd be sampling and rapping like a motherfucker!

Someone once said if Jimi Hendrix were alive today, he'd be singing "Ebony and Ivory" with Paul McCartney at some Casino venue. I'm not sure, but maybe that's one case where artisically it's better to die young.

Lennon doin' a sampled rap version of "I Dig a Pony" might be fun.


Gravatar"Even though I'm a tranquil guy now at this stage of my life, I have nothing but contempt and anger for those who betray the trust by exposing the name of our sources. They are, in my view, the most insidious of traitors."
-- George Herbert Walker Bush, 1999


GravatarHey Sallyh:

Not easy. Wish I could help.


GravatarI plan to seek medical attention for it. Sallyh

Sallyh - I'm not sure what options you've explored, but CBT has been shown to be very effective at treating panic attacks. Being in psychology, I am biased toward suggesting trying therapy first over meds, but the main thing is to get treatment from a professional trained in anxiety disorders, preferably the Craske and Barlow program. Most psychiatrists and primary care docs are not.


Gravatarwell since we're in from the top or up from the bottom.

this is my apology to cs, DWD, and incog. or anyone else who may have been offended by use of the word {which will not be used by me again 'round these parts.) they probably aren't even here but "fuck it, hell, i don't give a damn"

and oh yeah, i hope this rove bus. opens the whole slimey can of worms. fingers crossed.


Gravatar"I have bouts of anxiety myself. No fun."

--Sarah Deere


I understand. Luckily, I rarely have to leave the house anymore, except to go to the grocery store, which I can handle. Working at home does have advantages that I had never considered before.


Gravatar I still have not figured it out. It's tragic. Advice?

Many people in this situation find that being forced to care for something other than themselves every day will help them grow up. Have you considered adopting a pony?


GravatarAnd every album would have two weird-assed Yoko songs where she's screeching like a chicken.

I don't know; by the time Double Fantasy was released, she was becoming less weird. Either that or the times were catching up with her: "Kiss, Kiss, Kiss" is one of the great new wave songs of the era.


GravatarWhy Bushco keeps desperately trying to redefine what "winning" in Iraq means.

But the studies consulted by the White House show that in the long run public support for war is "mostly linked to whether you think you can prevail," [White House counselor Dan Bartlett] added, which is one reason it is important for Bush to explain "why he thinks it's working and why he thinks it'll win."


GravatarThe former - drugs are the answer. Drug intervention first to break the cycle. Wellbutrin is best - no weight issues. Modern life's a bitch - modern life without wheels in LA is impossible.
GWPDA, Irate Scholar

Don't do what I did, tho.
Was on Zoloft for a while.
It helped right away, maybe placebo effect.
When a precription ran out with no refills I just stopped taking it.
Not a good plan.
I developed the very annoying 'Brain Zaps'. Like an electrical shooting Zap I could feel and hear in My head.
Turns out it's quite common when trying to get off the stuff.

Do it with your Doc.

GravatarEither that or the times were catching up with her: "Kiss, Kiss, Kiss" is one of the great new wave songs of the era.

Bingo! The B-52s made the world safe for Yoko.

"Walking on Thin Ice" is also killer...
