Now We Rise, And We Are Everywhere. For Sat. Night.
« on: June 19, 2010, 08:41:02 PM »
There used to be a singer/songwriter named Nick Drake. He died in 1974, in his 20's.  Far too young for his talent. The header is a quote from a great song, and has made a resurgence as of late.

I have been a fan since I can remember, (thanks Mom)....and thought, a deep breath of acoustic, before going at it again would remind us of the important things.

Have a great weekend DRTV.  And Never Let Them Beat You Down...

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

I never heard of the guy but the song sounds familiar. Maybe I heard it on tv.
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington. Letter to Alexander Hamilton, Friday, May 02, 1783

At least someone at AT&T has decent diversified tastes in music, not some mindless Lady Ga Ga, or other mindless crap that is so prevalent these days.

The sad thing is, unless I'm mistaken, Lady Ga Ga, was / is a musical prodigy and studied at Juliard.  That kind of talent and the only thing that produced by it is "mindless crap"  as you so aptly termed it.   :(

Obama went to Harvard also,.....Outcome turned out great there too. Last time I heard 15 seconds of a Ga Ga tune (all I could stand), I must have missed the Juliard influence... :-\

I think the Gaga went to Tisch School in NY, not Juliard.  Either way, she's just another pop star who's shining brightly just before flameout!

Due respect boys. As Tom pointed out, Ga Ga gets the green, and fame (for the next 15 minutes) and Obama is the President. Sometimes you do get what you pay for education wise. ;D

The problem with the latter is, no one knows HOW he paid for Harvard!  We know how he got elected.....the "ignorant dumbass" vote outnumbered the independents!
