Yeah, the Beatles are just amazing.

Have you listened to Criminal Minded (the song)? It starts with KRS singing to the tune of Hey Jude :smile: Actually they have this part on youtube (and I posted it previously: deleted) I think the song Jimmy (off BDP's second album) also has some Beatles/Lennon influence; I think the idea behind the chorus, or maybe it was some other part of the song, was taken from a Beatles (or Lennon) song. I think I remember an interview with KRS talking about how he was a huge fan of the Beatles and really thought they paved the way for music production and lyrics.

The Scifi channel offers a number of scifi movie classics for free including one of my absolute favorites, Metropolis; though I do prefer this with the modern soundtrack by Georgio Moroder.

I LOVE Bill Maher!

BOOF! BIFF! POW!

Tell it like it is Bill! Now for Bush's 843 other offenses we'll need about two season's worth of Bill Maher.

I agree with most of what Maher says, esp about the Mormons, but as for religion in general, I could and would take him down with one sentence. :biggrin:

Flooding in our area this past week.

Flooding 4-16-2007


At about 1:50 there is an interesting effect of the reflection of a traffic light in the water flowing over the road. In most images, the water had receeded somewhat from the maximum height during the early morning.

The last part is near my house. Fortunately we live up hill, but then I have several acres of hillside uphill from our property, so we got a little flooding in the basement which kept me occupied all day Monday and Tuesday morning, just pumping the water out as fast as it was flowing in. The hydraulic pressure of the water forced it through whatever cracks/pores there are in the basement wall and floor.

Other people weren't so lucky, and several homes are damaged and some trailer homes have been condemned since they were contaminated by a flooded septic system. The people in the local trailer park were given 10 minutes notice before they were forcefully evacuated.

Professor gets mad at cell phone


Can't say I disagree with the prof's decision. (Probably not the best course of action but what the student did was pretty disrespectful :o)
