Eggs-ACTLY.

Don't you think his continued interest might be a
result of hearing about it yet again? Don't you think
he wants to move on? What's the name of that worm with
the convolutedly spelled last name, tail in mouth?

AHHHH! I can't have ANY fun!

The apparent small inconsistancies in the words.

Yeah, yeah. Hand me my checkbook and I'll crawl off to
die.

Why does it matter if he's not a pedophile? Once you
grant that, then you have to grant his motives were
innocent. Right?

ESPECIALLY if it keeps getting brought up and even his
fans question him.

Not to me. He's innocent, end of line.

That's right, force me to quote Mick Jagger: Got to
scrape that shit right off your shoe.

With bad intent?

Or a better President?

No, I art a lot more like Eddie Vedder or Billy Idol.
So I guess this means your interest in science doesn't
include fiction.

No it's not.

I disagree. Although I'll grant you the "drum mix"
we're now treated to makes it hard to tell.

When the guitar is mixed properly, it's ferocious.
Daltrey is equally powerful. Keith, I need say
nothing.

> Hardly.  It has mistakes.

So does a lot of Who music. Remember the original mix
of the chorus on Eminence Front?

OK, Kit.

So? If it was the same, what would be the point? Is
the studio Substitute anything like the live version?
OK then.

Already done.

I think so too. About 1/3 of the album is great.

Kevin:

Et Too, you brute?

I don't know if I want to know if it counts.

I need a drink. And it's only 9 AM.

Good, I've already deconstructed his argument.

And Pete ALWAYS does what he's supposed to. That's why
we're discussing this.

> Who let you off your leash??

"Drop the leash, drop the leash..."

> But, I did think he was working through past demons.
> I hold no negative opinion on that.

I would hope not. Working past demons is a GOOD thing.

> GDP up 7.2%.

Consumer spending plunged to the lowest level all
year. Gas prices poised to rise significantly. BTW,
how much money does the GDP put in your pocket? Right.
Rich people getting richer doesn't count as an
"economic recovery."

When was the last time you really understood someone?
Even Tania? Really. Ethan, maybe you have a shot with
him for a few years.

I guess that no one else here reads Heinlein.

Clearly it's a String Cheese Incident.
Oh, and...Meterosexual????

Just say Yes to Wes!
