"Mind you, I quite agree that twice-two-makes-four is a most excellent thing; but if we are to give everything its due, then twice-two-makes-five is sometimes a most charming little thing, too."

We still great power! Our elements heavier!
Russia might not be so great for journalists who don't wish to be murdered right now, but they have some damn fine scientists, who've synthesized Element 118.
I wonder if they're still working on those anti-gravity shoes to make Putin seem taller...

Another edition of Ceeeeeee-lebrity Ceeeeee-Corner...
* The big guy is back! I'm glad to hear it, I saw ol' Roger when he did his famous shot-by-shot workshop at the Virginia Film Festival (it was "The Birds" that year). Hope those thumb muscles are workin'...
* Thanks to C.Franz for pointing out Robyn Hitchcock has a new album out, with Peter Buck on guitar no less! It's 1991 all over again!
* I thought it was because he was a boozehound, but apparently Mel hates the Jews because of...South Park?
Yeah, I don't get it either.

"Appetite For Destruction"? Please. "Use Your Illusion"? Utter crap.
Axl had to get these juvenile recordings out of his way in preparation for his masterpiece. It's taken fourteen years, the firing of Slash and Daffy...Doof...whatever his name is, the quick rise and spectacular fall of Buckethead, but it's finally here.
Certain works always come up when great music is discussed, Beethoven's 9th, the Ring Cycle, Sgt. Pepper, It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back, but Chinese Democracy may, just may, mind you, be a hundred times better than all of those works put together.
Hope the first track's an instrumental...

You...bastards.
On behalf of gambling degenerates everywhere, I say go to hell, Congress. I just cleaned out my PartyPoker account before cashing out became a crime.
Hope all you libertarians who vote Republican because you don't want the government interfering in your life and think this South Park ep is funny are watching...
Well, at least with the priorities of this Congress we know our children are safe.
