Word of the week there, word of the week.

1) MONEY - Pink Floyd
"Money, get away.
"Get a good job with good pay and you're okay.
"Money, it's a gas.
"Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash.
"New car, caviar, four star daydream,
"Think I'll buy me a football team"
I identify with it because of our damn, frickin' society with its preoccupation to define lives by everything we've acquired through monetary means

AND

2) TIME - ALSO Pink Floyd
"Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
"You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.
"Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
"Waiting for someone or something to show you the way."
This just makes me think "Dammit, people. Pick your asses up and start running."


Me likes Pink Floyd B)


OHHHHH! One more!

3) TOO MUCH - Dave Matthews Band
"I've got it coming to me
"Because I'm not satisfied
"The hunger keeps on growing
"I eat too much
"I drink too much
"I want too much
"Too much"
Hopefully, this one is self-explanatory. People don't need cars, phones, computers to live. HANG UP... YOUR STUPID... CELL PHONE!

Have a happy day! :)

Their reunion performance at Live 8 was pretty good...only reason I decided to watch it.

Live 8? Who's performance? What? Ahhhh, this confusion *weeping*

Live 8, A massive concert put together to raise awareness of Africa's troubles and to persuade world leaders to relieve Africa's debt and send aid. It was this weekend and very awesome.

The members of Pink Floyd set aside their differences and reunited to perform, along with many other major acts.

It was everywhere here, and there wasn't even a performance in this country. How can people NOT have heard of it?

Obviously some people just aren't hip enough...they probably didn't even watch Bob Geldof's original mega-concert, Live Aid.

Accept it, most Americans are retarded and never made it past Kool-Aid.

Which you would probably keep a whole case of if Mommy bought it for you. No, it's not a matter of inbred America, it's a matter of stupid, naive me. I don't watch TV, I don't listen to the radio, I don't read the newspapers. Yes, from here you can draw the conclusions that I live exclusively in my own small world. Little bunnies talk to me.

So basically, you're a loser with no life?

You catch on quick!

My life consists of nearly nothing media related, excluding the ocassional outing with friends. It's all in between work, school, babysitting, studying and attempts at having... fun time. And by gum, 'fun time' takes precedent over the boob tube any day.

You need an internet portal like my.yahoo or google.com/ig then. Should be enough to keep you uptodate while you check your email.

Um, Rahul, you just described every single SH member.

I sure ain't a loser with no life.

Nah, you're excused, you're busy and actually have a life...the rest of america spent the weekend with their heads up their asses wanking over who Bush's new Supreme Court nominee is going to be, That Natalee Holloway bullshit, and probably some dull and trivial thing involving reality tv to actually care about something as awesome and amazing as Live 8.

I mean damn, the thing was completely free, and the organizers threatened to sue eBay because people were trying to profit from tickets.

EDIT: Speaking of Live 8:

I barely do any of those either, and I still knew about it...

The sad part of this response is that it's going to strengthen my claim of naivety... but who's Natalie Holloway, and what's going on? The last thing I ever heard about involving the president and an unrecognized woman's name was the Monica Lewinski account.

That naivety is awesome. That is honestly the best thing I have heard today. Which is good, since today has been a day of bad news galore. (Seriously, that wasn't sarcasm.)

And now I'm goin to ruin it by telling you the situation. Basically, the country is trying to find this girl who went missing in May at the end of her post graduation trip to Aruba, it's the typical oversenstaionalised missing woman case that the country needs since the Laci Peterson thing was all wrapped up.

Sure, hundreds of people go missing all the time, but when it's an upper class, good looking white girl who goes missing in Aruba, the nation obviously needs to stop what it's doing and let the mother run around like a psychopath in Aruba accusing people and going on national worldwide television begging the world to treat two non guilty suspects with not a shred of evidence to incrimnate them, like criminals.

Oh, THAT Natalie Holloway. I heard my mom speaking in disbelief while watching the TV, so I watched for long enough to see a man in camouflage and a woman pleading to help search for the girl. That's all I knew, though. And my guess on this? You're right on with how biased it all is in the appearances, but it's also probably because someone had enough financial swing to make them go national about it.

The story broke on Fox News, and they're pretty much the ones perpetuating it, broadcasting "Live from Aruba", even when there's nothing new to mention.

The mother's tantrum's are starting to backfire, and just recently about 200 Arubans held a protest against her.

Fox news should be blown up.

Tell that to those wanker terrar-ists running around London-town.

They're just learning what most Americans have learned: People from Alabama are best ignored.

And now, because the past posts have catered to my naivety and I'm going to further that, what happened in London that I heard about bombings? I heard my dad gumming the words "Bombs," "Alabamians," and "cheese," although the last my be irrelevant.

There was a terrorist attack in London on thursday, around 50 dead, hundreds injured.

You crack me up, Viajera.

Which must be why I'm a Badass VIP. B)

But I'm still Lord Buttmunch! You can't take that away from me!

I still don't think that makes sense. It should be "Lady Buttmunch".

And it's true; Lady Buttmunch would make perfect sense, but only if you didn't know me personally. Almost like Rachel; to know her, you wouldn't dare call her a lady to her face. She might fart on you. :mellow:
