How would anyone know yet when and if Windows 7 "works?" More examples of people blabbing about things they know nothing about. Gates retired as CEO; Steve sat out a keynote. Not quite the same thing.
I remember some Mac "journalists" claiming at first glance that Vista looked "fresh.." then we all quickly found out what a mess it was. Windows 7 may be better, but there's a much bigger problem, one that will persist- it's still spray-painted DOS. Unlike Mac OS X, which is a completely different OS than Mac "Classic," Windows is still Windows. And it requires annual subscriptions to the best and most anti-virus and spyware utilities you can afford.

CBS6 News
Liz Bishop and partner seem to think that "She Loves You" is the gold standard by which all other Beatles recordings, past and newly discovered, should be measured. Therefore, why would Paul McCartney even think of tampering with our memories of this one, great hit by releasing this 14-minute previously unheard experimental recording done by the group. I really doubt that hearing this new song will alter She Loves You's place in history, and certainly won't change our way of hearing A Day in the Life and Eleanor Rigby. Might be nice, actually, played back to back with Revolution #9.
Sigh. Sounds like "Smallbany" TV News.

More on tattoos
I find tattoos repulsive. They literally hurt my eyes. They're not exercises in rebellion or individuality- they're a moronic fad that quite simply, LOOKS trashy even if the person isn't. As an artist and painter- I am appalled by the defacement and mutilation of God's creations. Philosophy aside, I just think they're ALL ugly- the plastering of ink on rock musicians, the little butterflies on ankles, the horrible distractive symbol on a woman's back, belly, or hip- no, what turns me on are the gorgeous, unmarred curves and expanses of unmarked, unpierced, virginal flesh that we were all born with, whatever the color, size, or shape. That blotch of ink, no matter how meaningful to the misguided soul, is simply ugly as hell.

Palin sucks
First of all, Mr. X is full of crap. If he's a democrat or a
journalist, I'm Joe the Plumber. And Joe the plumber isn't even Joe
the Plumber- another pathetic joke from the McCain campaign. "Mr. X"
is as full of hatred as all the other pro-Palin and anti-Obama morons
and bigots. People aren't jealous of Sarah Palin- they're terrified of
her and McCain running for president! Otherwise, who cares?
Interesting that the people bothered by attacks on Palin could care
less what others are saying about the Obamas. And I hate to break it
to you, kiddies, but you and your parents need professional
counseling for your bigoted hatred and a more effective education.
White trash smells. Or you're all sociopaths, like Mr. X.

Dylan review
As a musician, I can relate to the comment that dancing energizes the
performer. They pick up on the energy and enthusiasm, and are inspired
to give even more. As a listener/fan, I'd like to drop-kick some of
these mindless, inconsiderable deadheads who block my view and disrupt
my concentration and enjoyment. That's why I'm more likely to buy DVD's
these days than pay a fortune to subject myself to that frustration.
And, yes- it's true- as the journalist Al Aronowitz once said, Dylan is
the Heavyweight Champion of the World.

American idiots

It occurs to me reading some of these hate-filled idiotic, racist, sexist rants that as far as I'm concerned personally, "the Enemy" isn't necessarily a terrorist from another country, but a despicable, illiterate moron who thinks he or she is an American patriot because of his compulsive use of the word "liberal," which is acceptable to use as a weapon whereas the "N" word is not. MISTER-ALL-CAPS!!! Shut up!
