live AID was about the money. this is not. this is political. you're the idiot. But people are still saying that they're trying to change the world.

Are you serious? I never noticed that.

that publication ban was lifted after a few self-righteous americans thought they were doing us a favour and posted that information anyways.

;) True that. You really have to spend quite a bit of money to get a good Gibson... their quality control is just abyssmal these days. The cheap Gibsons these days are even worse than Epiphones. The expensive, custom-shop ones are still great... but everything else is really going down the tubes. Plus all Gibson's suing-everybody tactics really arent making many friends in the industry. They're really losing their market share to Asian imports recently. Yeah, my Schecter C-1 is made in Korea, and having played many, many guitars in the search for it, I can honestly say that it feels better than any guitar under 1500 bucks, and it costs only half that. Even those made-in-america fender strats feel shit compared to my baby. And I can't believe they actually sued PRS over their singlecut design, and had those models taken off the shelves. They should try making a guitar that's good enough to buy over someone else's than suing the competition out of existence.

And for that reason, conservative politicians are going to be up in arms about this ruling, using it as "proof" that the supreme court has been taken over by a bunch of liberals and appoint another version of scalia or thomas to the court once there's an opening. hey, maybe it's a conspiracy.

Eh, they had You Know You're Right released post-mortem.

Kids, that ain't a regular les paul. The top of the body is flat, not carved like the regular top-of-the-line les pauls. Probably one of the cheaper models that gibson puts out. Meaning that my guitar would definitely be worth more than it, especially if it were spray painted over.

as wrong as i would be if i went around saying mooses (???) walked the streets everywhere in canada. have you ever been to the south? do you know anything about it at all? where'd you get your information from, huh? you think that you can front when revelation comes? I actually have been to the south, and let me tell you, it was a huge self-esteem booster.

It may be a generalization, but tell me I'm wrong.

what exactly do you mean by that? I mean that at least 3/4 of all states are redneck states and will support shitting on the constitution to advance their own bigoted agenda.

The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Wait Until Tomorrow

Pretty sad that it only needs 3/4 of the states, and not states representing 3/4 of hte population? Damn, aren't 3/4 of all states redneck states?

Why was the Cold War better than the War on Terror? With the War on Terror, not only are we allowed to blindly hate people who we are told to hate, but they're also brown, exposing our underlying racism! for example, from the www.whitehouse.org reader mail... You really have to wonder how these guys out-think their front doors in the morning.

I didn't even know they were on.

Not clever, ironic. Isn't it ironic when you've got 10,000 coffee cups, but all you need is a lid?

Avalanche actually had to grow on me. When I first got the album, I didn't really know what to make of it. I had only been introduced to some old MGB at the time, and when I read in the paper that a knew MG album was coming out, I didn't even know that the old mgb had split up. So I buy it, take it home, and it was entirely different from what I expected it to be. I evnetually came to love it, so no worries there.

She didn't actually strip? Aw dang.

Well, looks as though the organization was indeed MPH. There definitely is a problem when an organization is being used as a tax shelter for millionaires.

Most animals don't like to get wet. Stupid idea no matter what, and it's just another attempt to reinforce that mindset on children who have been taught what to think.

Just for the hell of it... Matt made a mention of a certain ngo who's interest was in eradicating poverty that was apparently being used as a tax shelter for millionaires. I then noticed that all links to make poverty history had been eliminated from the site, when not too long ago there was a link to that organization from the top banner. I also saw this article, to sweeten the pie: http://uk.news.yahoo.com/050529/356/fk0uy.html What are the odds that the org is make poverty history? Any other guesses? Come on, we'll make it a complete media circus, a la michael jackson.

Paul Martin was actually a good finance minister. Would he be where he is without his dad? It's debatable, but he's still a good enough politician to successfully handle the top cabinet position for 10 years straight. Brian Mulroney, you said, went from nowhere (in political terms) to being prime minister, so how was he undeserving of a cabinet position if he couldn't have gotten one? He's got to be the worst prime minister we've ever had, that ought to serve as a warning for people who'd consider voting for someone without political experience. But the fact that Belinda's dad is rich doesn't necessarily dictate that everything that happens to her will be a direct cause of her dad's wealth; rather, she would have been absolutely unable to run for leadership of the party had her dad not been the head of a major corporation, and so follows everything else. Part of her appeal is that she is oriented in the business world (a letter to the editor from the toronto sun a while back stated that this was her strongest asset), and would she have been a big shot in the business world were it not for her dad? Definitely. Like I said, she's the Paris Hilton of Canadian politics.

It's also the best part of sodium.

Nor should they be based on how rich your dad is. I'm all in favour of bringing in new, fresh cabinet ministers. But Belinda Stronach? I'm sorry, no. She hasn't proved herself in the field of politics in any way thus far, and is less deserving of a cabinet position than, say, my local MP who has been serving in the House of Commons since 1993.

Unfortunately, Jesus would drive one of those big-assed SUV's like those dang rednecks.

And I think we all know how people remember Brian Mulroney. It doesn't matter how common or uncommon it is, she's little more than a glorified Paris Hilton, and not a very experienced politician. Basically, the only reason she's famous is because she's a woman. There are backbencher politicians who have been in the gig for 10 years and haven't go so much as a cabinet post, but when Belinda Stronach comes out of nowhere to run for the conservative leadership, she's a media darling.
