Am I chumming empty waters.....
The spirit of the whispering waves confirms your isolation, amplifying sunlight to a horizon wide glare as if your ship slid along upon an undulating plane of white hot glass. The blood and viscera of the fish you poured overboard pool aside your hull, a gory embrace marking you as the last hungry heart in this world. Sleep eternal, Tobus Neth.
Woah I heard the Phil Lynott Whiskey In The Jar this morning on the radio. I was almost crying, man.
Love that song... by them. The Metallica cover, though good enough, doesn't have the same heart.
By them I meant Lynott's Thin Lizzy... not Van Morrison's group Them. G-L-O-R-I-A GLOOOOOOOOOOOOORIA!
Yeah; it's the first time I heard the Lynott version. Wow.Woah I heard the Phil Lynott Whiskey In The Jar this morning on the radio. I was almost crying, man.Love that song... by them. The Metallica cover, though good enough, doesn't have the same heart.
Heathy- I am jealous.
Here's Opium Trail and Dear Lord from the Bad Reputation LP. Not much on visuals, but amazing vocals. Link and link around, you'll find his collaborations with Gary Moore; especially on the Black Rose (a Rock Legend) record. My Sarah, Get Out Of Here, Waiting for an Alibi, and my fav--Got to Give it Up.
sound is meh.....but I love that song, man.
I played a cover of Moore's version onstage when I 17. Listen back to Jeff Beck's earlier version, and then to his earliest version with the Yardbirds. Tracking those three versions of that song is like watching This is Spinal Tap... going from some Ferry Cross the Mersey type 60's Brit pop through a more soulful period, finally winding up at the front step of metal.
Kill da wabbit!
...to be continued
BLASPHEMERS!
Thin Lizzy RUINED the song. You want real Irish music? Listen to the Clancy Brothers. They do a MUCH better version. More, you know, ethnic. Less glam rock.
Thin Lizzy wasn't trying to be Irish. They were trying to rock. I think they more than suceeded. If Lynott was alive to slam all over Danny Boy I'd probably like that as well. When I want traditional Irish music I just listen to traditional Irish music and I don't understand the rigidity of the suggestion that there's only one devout way to do take my melody.
Thin Lizzy inspires me. They make me feel good.
Thin Lizzy inspires me. They make me feel good.
...And thats all that matters. Music is personal to people, it's in the soul/heart of the listener, someone else may hear it as noise or dislike a certain version...

Meh. I like Thin Lizzy, I just don't like that song. To me, 70's rock and Irish folk music don't mix. And I do like the Thin Lizzy version more than the f@!$ing S*@~tallica version.
Metallica was definitely covering Thin Lizzy's cover of the folk song.
I guarantee you that five hundred garage bands out there are covering the Metallica cover of the Thin Lizzy cover of the folk song. If one of them get's signed in six years... yep...

*shudder*
I wonder how many people think that Metallica wrote that song. Judging by the number of people that think Green Day and Marilyn Manson are *new* bands, probably quite a few.
As to the five hundred garage bands covering the cover of the cover, If they get signed, I will hunt them down, kill them, and take their guitars.
Sorry. I guess I'm just an anal-retentive music purist.

Rogue black holes are not observable except by their interactions with other, observable, objects.
Because their hide and move silently is CRAZY high.

I guess I'm just an anal-retentive music purist.Heh... I first read that as "priest".
Now, that was an absurd observation.
Oh, but I AM a music priest. I preach the gospel of Brian Warner, Trent Reznor, Brent Hinds, and Ozzy Osbourne.
For those of you that ain't into THE METAL, I also preach the gospel of Liam Clancy, Peter Mulvey, Elliot Smith, Jesse Lacey, James Adkins, and Claudio Sanchez.
May the Rock be with you, my son.
The first car that I owned was an '83 Toyota Camry. I have many fond memories of this vehicle, as this was the one that I grew up with. My dad bequeathed it to me, and it served me well, despite its many issues. One of such issues was that it had a bad habit of popping out of gear. I learned to drive with one hand on the wheel and one hand on the gear shift, to push it back into place should it pop out.
Years later, and I'm driving an automatic, and I'm still keeping my hand on the gear shift, despite the fact that it's completely unnecessary.
Not my absurd observation, but my hubby's. "You know you don't have to do that anymore."
*shudder*

LOL.
I remember when 15 year old girls thought Ugly Kid Joe wrote Cat's in the Cradle.
BTW, Id's sneak attack got me. Well delivered.

That's like when prisoners are years out of jail but they still shield their food with one of their hands as they used to in order to prevent other cons from taking it.
As a person with some professional experience in the matter. That was a nice punch.Agreed. One looks much tougher avoiding fights one is likely to lose... publically... on youtube.
As someone else with some training I would say it was a nice punch, but not spectacular. Not quite a roundhouse, but definitely elbow up and arcing. Still powerful, however, and I certainly wouldn't want to be on the receiving end.
You'll probably be interested to know that Mr. Danzig does have some training as well - in Jeet Kune Do, of all things. Why anybody with any training would start something by pushing someone, and then to make it worse, keep their hands down afterwards, is beyond me. Although I love the Misfits, I think Glenn expected his evil persona to overwhelm the guy and he would just run away. Stupid, anyway you cut it.

Drunk? Or maybe that ridiculous haircut got in the way? Who knows...

I heard this on the way in to work on BBC radio (yeah, I admit it, sometimes the music all sucks so I switch to news). Apparently, the odds are like 1 in 1 quadrillion per day we'd interact with one in a noticeable way (smush). I like the reporter’s response, "So, it's still a possibility then..."
Speaking of quadrillions; some knob is attempting to sue to US for 3 quadrillion for his pain and suffering over Hurricane Katrina.

So does this mean that black holes
Speaking of quadrillions; some knob is attempting to sue to US for 3 quadrillion for his pain and suffering over Hurricane Katrina.
I hate people. What kind of jackass thinks that it's the U.S's fault that he suffered through Katrina? Or that he should get four quadrillion dollars from the government for it? It's a natural diasaster! S$*% happens and you don't need to sue someone every time it does. Lots of other people experienced 'pain and suffering' due to Katrina, but they aren't being idiots and trying to sue the U.S for it. FEMA maybe but the U.S government on the whole? Maybe he should try suing good ol' mother nature over it.
So does this mean that black holes
Man... I just got caught out clicking on your ooc text in the hopes it was a hyperlink.
Maybe he should try suing good ol' mother nature over it.
I sued mother nature for sexual harassment and won. I rather selflessly used the money to train storms in human awareness that they leave our erogenous zones alone when whipping past us. Have you noticed than in the last five years even strong breezes never feel as good as they used to?
Yep. That was me.
Very little of the email that comes to my website email address is about, you know, asking me to do art for someone. Most of it is spam centered around offering to give me a newer (presumably better) wang. I don't know what it is about my artwork that says I need a new wang, but I think I have at least a few years left on this one before I need to trade up.
I found one today that says,"Your new cock is waiting for you" and I was like, "Oh, snap! I forgot to pick up my rooster from the bus terminal! He's going to be FURIOUS!"
They're still sending that one out?
I haven't recieved that particular spam in about seven years but the amount of c0ck cream they used to try and sell me...
I wanted to snap off a shot of my bare nethers next to a sign that says "before" and submit it for their approval.
My thoughts are with you during this trying and schlong-tingling (that's how you know the cream is working!) time, James.
I sometimes get the ones that say "Christian singles are looking for you!" and such. That and ones offering fake rolexes. You'd think they'd give after a while; I never reply or even open them.
I think it was yesterday that I got one that was offering my better virus protection and a spam blocker. Keep in my that this was a piece of spam mail.

I've lost more relatives on dangerous African roads than I knew I had. Its a good thing those nice barristers want to get their money back stateside to me.How far removed from "King of Nigeria" are you?
I don't know, but by now I could probably put my feet on his coffee table.
My boss once said "if you saw my e-mail inbox you would think I am a small-penised, serial home refinancer with bad credit."
That's quite funny.
I keep winning the Irish lottery.
Why do they keep letting me enter for free?
Thing is, you really did win... just not money. The Irish lottery is actually run by Lucky Charms cereal and they're merely liquidating a forgotten warehouse full of lil plastic toys from '77 that never made their way into cereal boxes. I won a Reggie-Jackson-as-leprechaun car and a shamrock-shaped reflector that attaches to my bike's spokes! Yay! I'm lucky!
Did you ever notice that if you blow in a dogs face the dog hates it, yet when you take him for a car ride he sticks his head straight out the window?
