    HOT OR NOT: Grown Man in Pub(l)ic Pool

    thats the thing, I dont wanna swim laps or anything. It just would seem so nice, on those rare hot summer afternoons that you have to yourself, to go cool off in the pool and lounge around with a beer or something. Im worried for three reasons: 1. Human excrement and disease 2. Lots of kids...

    Crash is the ”best” film.

    Here's my belated thought on Crash: When I was watching, I was gripped, caught up and pissed off. I left the movie thinking and feeling there were insoulble problems or problems that could only be solved with violence. BUT, I saw this movie on hottest day of summer. One of those 105+ days...

    HOT OR NOT: Grown Man in Pub(l)ic Pool

    Im gearing up for summer and in the park across the street there is a gigantic public pool. Am i delluding myself to think that I'll use that pool? Are they really as bad as i think? If I was 12, no problem, but 26 it may seem strange.

    Harp (instrument related)

    my girl just bought a harpsicle. It sounds made up, but its not. Its a bit smaller than a full size harp which are impossibble to tune and cost $$$. For good solo harp music, check Liz Kelley (she played with the great Steve) and Joel Andrews among others.

    Finding Your Roots and Heritage

    thats a cool story and one that seems to be fairly common (their names getting changed.). Can you trace what part of China your maternal side comes from? My family names have been changed on countless occasions. So it makes it very difficult to trace anything with certainty. Also, on my Dad's...

    Finding Your Roots and Heritage

    I just just watched like all five hours of that program on PBS -- I just blanked on what its called. i think its called African American Lives, where the Hravard guy traces like Chris Tucker's and Oprah's roots through genealogy and genetics back through the states and into Africa. Since SS is...

    So, why not an Enlightened Despot in the States?

    dude....come on. This is beyond simplistic. Really, Im not so sure it is. Most leaders would fall into the category of barbaric. Probably 99 percent. Then there are the Ahkenatens (Moses?), the legendary Arthurs, the Martin Luther Kings, the Bobby Kennedys and so on who were peaceful...

    Whats the worst music magazine?

    from my understanding downbeat represented a fairly conservative and un-adventurous (and also, more importantly, white) view of jazz, particularly into the 70s and onward. throughout the history of jazz criticism there has been a pretty important amount of tension between black jazz artists and...
