Tommy D observations, Accuracy and Crichton the Who fan



A few more things I noticed about Tommy D: when the
window on my CD player displays the song and artist,
the artist shows as "Unknown." I have to wonder if
that's an inside joke, but when the CD is not playing
it does show as The Who. Second, I noticed a few sonic
imperfections: there is a audiable hiss in the right
channel on Amazing Journey, also on the right in
Tommy's Holiday Camp the organ is at times distorted.
Also throughout the disc the cymbals and most notably
Townshend's voice sound a bit harsh (when he's singing
lead).
This is definitely NOT the ultimate Tommy. I now think
it's the 2nd worst, coming in after the original CD
release. All it does is remind me of why I like the
remixed version so much. I'll stick to that one, I
think.

Let's be accurate, shall we? It's the quarterly rate,
which projected into an annual rate makes it 7.2%.
Divided by 4 ("quarterly," you know), it is in
actuality a mere 1.8% growth rate. I'm not impressed.
Remember the limping economy we had in 1984? I do.
Deficit spending tends to inflate the GDP but as I
said, rich people getting richer isn't an "economic
recovery." When people start getting back the 3.2
million jobs lost (so far) and wages start to return
to a decent range...then we'll talk about "recovery."
Besides, according to these people, we've been in
"recovery" for three years already. Where IS it???
With the WMD, uranium and Iraq/Al Qaeda link I guess.

Jo:

Hey, I'm sad Farscape (the best television show ever)
was cancelled too, but the first two seasons are out
on DVD boxed sets, the second of which includes the
episode "Won't Get Fooled Again" and has the infamous
Crichton line: "Meet the new boss, same as the old
boss." These people are clearly Who fans.

Just say Yes to Wes!
