And this is all anyone has to say about it?

I just sent an e-mail to C-SPAN 2's "About Books", which is a weekend program on American cable TV ("Television for Serious Readers") and requested that they broadcast a reading. I had nothing to lose but a few seconds of my time. https://www.c-span.org/about/contactUs/

Mr. Stanley was born with one normal ear, and one that for whatever reason didn't develop, and he just had a tab of skin and cartilage on that side.

Are you aware that Paul Stanley only has one ear?

King's X were My Other Favorite Band in the early 1990s, but when the band started to lose their Christian faith, the quality of their music also took a nosedive, and subsequently they pretty much fell off my musical radar. However, I have long thought that the perfect double bill would be Rush and King's X, but sadly, it's too late now for that. My two favorite bands, BTW, had several things in common. 1. Underweight, left-handed, sometimes bald lead singers who have had body parts ridiculed by Beavis and Butthead (and incidentally, are both gay). 2. Songs titled "Fall On Me" and "[The] Burning Down." 3. Their bass players have both said on the record that the bands have endured because the band members loved each other like brothers. 4. Both were trios, eventually. Can you guess who the other band is? You can't? Okay, it's another now-defunct band, R.E.M. The songs I've heard so far sound pretty good. I'm glad they're back, especially because they've had some tumultuous times in their personal lives.

A cynic might say the whole trend is simply making a profit off pretending to like people's favorite songs. And he wouldn't be far off. He'd be spot-on in most cases. This is frequently all about building up a big enough subscriber base to monetize one's channel. Well, his political videos have very few views and seem to garner equal hate and praise. His reaction views are much more popular, and they seem to revolve around a specific type of music and a few artists. I didn't see any political commentaries on Doug Helvering's channel. Who are you talking about, Goose?

Here's a link to the "Xanadu" reaction video. I just discovered this guy a couple days ago; his identification of notes boggles my mind. When I was in college, I dated (and briefly thought I would marry) a wonderful man who had perfect pitch, and he'd do things like hear a glass breaking in a restaurant and say, "That's a G!"

Who has the virus?? Tell us when you get it.

I believe I had it before the disease was formally identified; I had a mild cold that lasted a few days, went away for a few days, and then came back, and when I heard about the returning symptoms, that's when I began to suspect I had it. I have not had an antibody test, so I just don't know.- 1715 replies

I remember when Jerry Falwell said that he was offended by Hustler because he was a Christian, and Jay Leno said, "Pagans and Druids are offended by Hustler!"

RIP Screech 44, dead from lung cancer

Jodie Foster's done really well for herself too. Based on what I've seen on other boards, this man's death was like the anti-Neil response. I haven't seen one negative comment about Neil, and conversely, very few positive ones about this man. Okay, I don't think I ever saw "Saved By The Bell" and never heard of him until he died, but c'mon. Show some respect. Save the negative dead-celebrity comments for OJ Simpson, or better yet, just forget about him. -
I know this is a zombie thread and I'm new to the board; oh, well. I first heard of Rush ca. 1978, when I was 14 years old and my Bay City Roller fanatic friends kidded me because they weren't cute enough. Anyway, around that time, they did a show at the local Enormodome and one of the cheerleaders bragged, in the days that followed, that she Did It with Rush's lead singer. Someone finally brought a picture of Geddy Lee to school and said, "You had sex with THIS GUY?!?!?" She sputtered, "No, it might have been someone else." Or most likely nobody at all, Miss Pants On Fire! :oops: My first show, I should add, was 4 years later at the same venue, on the "Signals" tour.
