    Hedgpeth Fest

    http://www.hedgpethfest.com A nice little festivale in Twin Lakes, WI...near Lake Geneva in the southeast part of the state. Flaming lips and Primus headline the 2 nights (Jul28-9) with They Might Be Giants, Minus the Bear, Peeping Tom, Freshwater Collins, more. Thoughts?
  4. Are you seriously comparing Kelley circa Dec'97 to Kostya Tszyu last year?
  5. Ugh.
  6. Hamed never beat anyone on Kostya Tszyu's level. Both guys fought alot of B-level talent and aging fighters...when Hamed stepped up to the world class level (MAB) he got beat up, Hatton stopped Kostya. Luis Collazo is also probably just as good as anybody Hamed ever beat.
  7. That last little bit on the end of the razorblade wont do a damn thing for a backache.
  8. Under this administration, youre probably getting $50 less a week than with that Damn Liberal Clinton. Another interesting thing - The more overtime you work, the higher your tax percentage...what was that about not penalizing achievement etc?
  9. No. You should vote GOP because they are less likely to raise the taxes your currently pay. I didnt always pay 25% of my paycheck to the Big Republican Govt...
  10. Hopefully Castillo gets around to making weight this time.
  11. Its funny how the more overtime you work, the more taxes you pay...incentive!
  12. So I should vote Republican...so then at least really rich people can get a tax cut and I can pay a little extra for it?
  13. Why are people who work in factories, department stores, etc being penalized/taxed so heavily then? Are you saying they dont work hard?
  14. People I hate, as an ultra socialist wacko: 1.Uncle Sam 2.The Troops 3.Jesus 4.Matt Parker 5.Trey Stone 6.Toby Keith 7.Dale Earnhardt etc...
  15. I punched a window when I was younger...ended up with 16 stitches in my hand/arm.
  16. Goddam.
  17. Allen Keyes...the jobber of American politics.
  18. Plus, he doesnt sound nearly as mindlessly spineless as most of this party brethren.
  19. After reading the debate here about Catcher/Rye and Seperate Peace I decided to reread them both...but after finishing Catcher/Rye I didnt feel like stopping the Salinger flow and am now reading 9 Stories.
  20. As the Myspace Turns.
  21. I also enjoyed their live show.
  22. No. He labeled himself a 'doctor of gonzo journalism' but never actually earned a doctorate.
  23. Well played.

    Bonnaroo 2006

    We are proud to announce a very special late night performance. Dr. John will resurrect his Night Tripper persona for the first time in over three decades for his performance at Bonnaroo. Dr. John is universally celebrated as the living embodiment of the rich musical heritage exclusive to New Orleans. In the '60s, he developed the charismatic persona of Dr. John The Night Tripper. Adorned with voodoo charms and regalia, a legend was born with his breakthrough 1968 album Gris-gris, which established his unique blend of voodoo mysticism, funk, rhythm & blues, psychedelic rock, and Creole roots. The Night Tripper phase of Dr. John's career, featuring his unique fusion of Mardi Gras jubilation and spiritual mysticism marked, altered and broadened the scope of popular music forever. This special performance will be part of a New Orleans themed event that will also include Ivan Neville's Dumpstaphunk which features an all-star cast of some of the city's finest musicians. The Rebirth Brass Band will also join in, lending their celebratory brass band sound to what will be an unforgettable night. -bonnaroo e-mailing.
  25. The libertarian goal is to have no income tax...but, obviously, this will probably never happen. But it is very possible to have much less of an income tax. Conservatives are supposed to be for a small govt, and thus less need for heavy taxation. Unfortunately there is no fiscal conservatism now so the working people are being brutally taxed. Yeah...what I want (low/no taxes for working class that desperatly needs the funds...some taxes, though not '50% or more', for the very wealthy) is a progressive idea, but with the libertarian/real conservative idea in mind. What we have right now is a system that enslaves the vast majority of Americans to corporations/govt control...not too much unlike Communism. I wonder if Ann Coulter will make the connection between Americans working to run the big govt and Communist people working to run their big govt. I doubt it.
