My ears are ringing thanks to that masterpiece. The second side is amazing with how it all builds towards the end.

His live stuff is pretty good. Has a lot of concerts similar to that one.

Ok, so she isn't to blame.
Should still be banned since she did 'cheat' even if she didn't know about it.

Reply to TIL about Sarah Josepha Hale. She wrote the poem "Mary had a Little Lamb" and was editor of the most influential women's magazine of the time. Helping to found Vassar College. Over the course of 17 years she wrote five different presidents urging them to make Thanksgiving a national holiday. by marmorset
What if she pushed Thanksgiving and turkeys just to keep people from eating lamb??

It's a bot.
I made a Facebook post about Canadian Geese and put the word "damn" in front of it because they were blocking traffic in the photo and it got removed for hate speech.
Bot just sees the D word and C word and assume you are being a bigot. Don't think anything of it.

Say what? Your post shows you know nothing about Bill Clinton and his background.
He was in DC visiting as part of an American Legion thing when he met JFK. Dude grew up in Hot Springs Arkansas, not exactly the same circles as rich boy JFK.

That is because the government can't admit to being wrong.
Their government is a dictatorship who claims ruling authority by being right about everything. The second they admit that they are not right all the time it undermines their entire reason for existing.

I thought it was great right up till the bad guy reveal and then it starts to sink. Still has some cute moments after that but it also becomes more and more absurd as it goes on.
It goes from this cool almost Matrix like vibe to hot dog fingers. I can see why some people would really like it and can also understand why others would not.

We did that in Republican run areas too
Just smart practice as the registers are usually worth more than any money that might be inside them.
So remove the money and leave them open so no on destroyed the register looking for a few dollars.

Exactly. Every retail store I worked at left empty registers open like this because the registers are dang expensive and dont want them destroyed by some idiot looking for money.
You keep the money in a safe if you have any brains.

The difference between today and 1990 is not really that big.
Cell phones and the internet are about the only really revolutionary life changing things to happen in that time. Everything else is just an improvement on things that already existed at the time.
Better computers, better TVs, better cars, better medical tech, more access to information. Otherwise my day to day life as an adult today isn't much different than it was as an adult in 1990.

Does seriously look like something from LOTRs
We owe those movies a lot for showing us some insanely beautiful (real) places that most of us will never get to see in person.

I highly doubt many of the people he was recruiting were also being recruited by SEC schools. Maybe he snagged a few people who were going to be bench warmers at the bigger schools and convinced them they could play at his school, but otherwise very different talent levels.

I guess the question is how much of his success at Jackson State was due to him being a big fish in a small bowl?
Now that he is competing with the big boys for talent how will things work out? Will be interesting to see how it works out.

All I remember is how insanely attractive Natascha McElhone was in that film.
Bonus points for being one of Viola Davis's early roles.

Good choice. Red Rain is an amazing first song. The high hat followed by the keyboards and then the full drums and finally his voice. Just amazing.
Whole album is amazing one of the best of the 80s.
