'Dark Side of the Moon' turns 30
For the 30th anniversary of one of the best-selling recordings of all time -- a recording that spent 741 weeks, or a total of 14 years, on Billboard's Album Charts -- EMI/Capitol has produced a gift for its fans: Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon." It is being released today for the first time in full 5.1-channel surround sound...more [MSNBC]

Many would argue that this is the greatest rock album of the last 40 years. There are a few contenders to that crown, but no other album in history has had the kind of staying power, and popularity that this one has had. Straight, high, drunk, or vegging, this album defined the experience of the 70's rock scene. It's a journey to a place far removed from this world, yet it speaks to many concerns in the human condition.

Us and Them
"Us, and them
And after all we're only ordinary men.
Me, and you.
God only knows it's not what we would choose to do.
Forward he cried from the rear
and the front rank died.
And the general sat and the lines on the map
moved from side to side..."

Breathe
"...Long you live and high you fly
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be..."

Long live Pink Floyd...mj

To be young, dumb, drunk, and horny!
It's party time in Cancun -- a little war isn't going to get in the way. I love the gator story. I wonder what the parents will think when they see the picture of their daughter. The party must go on...mj

Please Saddam, do it!
The story is out that Saddam has authorized the Republican guard to use chemical weapons if we get to close to Baghdad. All I can say is please do it! Nothing would help the US and British more then this. It would justify every concern that was denied by the French, Germans, and Russians in their desperation to protect the money they made doing business with Iraq. It would prove that Saddam was lying, and that the invasion was the right things to do.

On another front. I never agreed with how we got to this point, but I think protesting the war at this point is useless, and only serves to provide moral support for Saddam. If the war does not go well, if it drags on, then there would be a reason. I also want to applaud the morons I saw on TV last night with a 5 year old kid crying it's head off as they dragged to a protest. Think for a moment, what happens if the protest turns violent, what if the child gets hurt? The other good one was people arrested in San Francisco who complained about conditions in Jail. DUH, it's jail, it's not supposed to be fun. Blocking streets during rush hour is not a way to attract support...mj

A nice MS laugher...
A Microsoft ad was pulled for being "unsubstantiated and misleading". MS was claiming that their software "could bring about the extinction of hackers." Given the fertile ground that MS software is for hackers, this has got to be on of the funniest claims that MS has ever made...mj
