I'd call it good sword control.

He even performed Islamic ritual punishment while defending himself!

I auditioned 804S and CM9 speakers from B+W yesterday. There is a world of difference between them. I liked the 804S much more than the CM9.

The prior Mosh thread was "Visit to Mikey's" (the record demagging thing), the current one is 'New Angle to an Old Discussion'.

What will the next Mosh Pit Thread be?

Kanye disrupts an entertainment award ceremony and the country goes off on him.

Joe Wilson disrupts a Presidential address to congress and gets a million dollar windfall and the love of the Palin worshippers.

Kanye gets to go on Leno, Joe Wilson gets Glenn Beck.

At least Serena was classy enough to offer an honest apology.

Maybe Wilson was astute enough to be trying to court the hip-hop vote?

Very much enjoyed the review (thanks, MF). While I was reading the Artemis Lab TT review, I couldn't help but think how much of a bargain the TT is, then I totally hit myself on the head: it is still $7K+! One thing that took my breath away was how MF put the price of Artemis Lab TT in perspective: it costs 5% of his Continuum Caliburn. Wow.

I don't know what time it is in France, I must confess. But Sarkozy just announced that "GDP should no longer be a measure of wealth." I saw this with mine own eyes on the oracle known as "CNBC Europe." Wherever the fuck THAT is...

No shit.

Now, who is going to come forth and announce that "wealth should no longer be a measure of happiness"?? Or the meaning of life??

I am not sure whether M. Sarkozy is a follower of Bush, Obama, or any of the lesser demons or angels. In his picture, accompanying this brave announcement, he looked worried. Or is that just me?

Does Mahler's antisemitism matter?

Do you care if Ted Nugent is conservative, or if Bruce Springsteen is liberal?

Dixie Chicks?

Alice Cooper is a Republican, and I hear so is Kid Rock.

Does it matter?

For that matter, does Sinatra's beating up chicks affect your listening habits? Michael's pedophilia? Elton or Freddie Mercury being gay?

_________

To try to answer my own questions...

Dixie Chicks went beyond the call of duty and came off as low class and it affected my opinion of them.

Jim Carroll was an interesting cat.
