Predictable Bush response: "So I suppose that everyone is entitled to 15 minutes of my time?" Not everyone, dumbass...but how about a grieving mother (thanks to your bonehead war) who has been in the news every day for the past week. And what then? What if he did talk to her? Would that really make...

Bite your tongue. "In My Time Of Dying" is one of my favorite Zeppelin tracks I LOVE In My Time of Dying. When I listened to that in high school I thought the earth was going to open up and swallow me whole. I agree. IMTOD is one of my favorite tracks from PG. It's long, but there are few songs wit...

But I'd still rather listen to it than Coda. Coda is actually one of the first LZ albums I heard, so I guess I have a better opinion of it than you do. Every once in a while I break it out to give it a spin. I prefer the Coda version of "I Can't Quit You, Babe" and I also enjoy "We're Gonna Groove,...

And it was an EP, I'd even break it down to: Good Times Bad Times Your Time Is Gonna Come (as above) What Is And What Should Never Be Thank You Ramble On Ok, so that's a long EP. Especially at the lengths of some of those songs. I'm going to guess, then, that from LZIII you might like "Friends," "C...

I honestly don't know too much about III. I'm not sure what you'd go for on it. It's the album that pissed a lot of fans off, because it was so different from LZI and LZII. Only three blues songs on the album: "Since I've Been Loving You" (love it), "Gallows Pole" (a rework of Leadbelly's "Gallis P...

Actually, I think the NRA was trying to imply that the Constitution gives a protection to those specific weapons/all weapons. Functionally, those weapons probably have little, if any, difference from their non-banned counterparts. The only differences are likely cosmetic: materials and styling. I d...

If you ban something, isn't it no longer "perfectly legal"?

If you're going to argue semantics, then yes, that's true.

However, I think the point is that the weapons that are now banned were previously legal.

Random thoughts on LZ II: - Whole Lotta Love is too fucking long I rather like the song, despite its length - I never hear either on the radio these days, but back in the day stations seemed to *always* play Heartbreaker followed by Living Loving Maid. Always the two together. In fact, those were p...

I'm sure the cremation industry is facing similar problems and having to build ever-wider ovens. My dad had always wanted to be cremated. When he passed away, he needed a larger casket (he was about 5'10", but around 350 lbs.), and there was a question as to whether it would fit in the cremation ov...

Critics say that education needs to be coupled with safe-sex education to be effective. "If adolescents only had sex in monogamous, married relationships, by definition there would be no STDs," Brueckner said, echoing President Bush's remarks in last year's State of the Union address. "But the majo...

"Unless he offers a better explanation for that decision, people will assume that customer Clarence Stowers cared less about another person's loss of a body part than about his chance to squeeze some bucks out of the custard stand."

I know that's how I see it.

As they say on Fark, "Asshat."

- Speakers are incredibly subjective, so you're best off listening to a bunch and deciding what *you* like. (FWIW, I like NHT. STAY AWAY from Bose -- they are overpriced and underperforming.) I would *highly* suggest not getting all five channels at once. Instead, spend the same amount of money on ...

See http://forums.lukpac.org/viewtopic.php?t=1396 Thanks. That was very helpful. Should have done a bit of research first. Heh. - Decent home theater receivers are plentiful and cheap. The brands you list should all be fine (though I'm not partial to Technics myself). Other good ones are Onkyo, Yam...

My current stereo is a Sony shelf system that is currently adequate for my needs right now. Realistically, though, it's going to die at some point, and I'm going to want something with more capabilities. To start with, I'll only be looking for a receiver, CD player, and speakers. Surround sound woul...

In case it wasn't abundantly clear, that was my take at sarcasm.

Apparently it wasn't. Perhaps my brain was not properly engaged.

I feel dumb now.
