Several. Many more to go though...

You should pass this avice on to wildpegasus.

"The next afternoon a visitor to the White House with an appointment to see the President was directed by mistake to the 2nd floor. As he approached the Red Room he heard a voice hoarse with anger and on enetering saw Harding throtling a man against the wall as he shouted: 'You yellow rat! You double-crossing bastard! If you ever...' Whirling about at the visitor's approach, Harding loosed his grip & the released man staggered away, his face blotched & distorted. 'I am sorry,' Harding said curtly to his visitor. 'You have an apt. Come into the next room.' On leaving the WH, the visito asked a doorman who it was who had just gone out after he came in, and the doorman replied: 'Colonel Forbes of the Veterans Bureau' -Shadow of Blooming Grove, WG Harding in His Times Francis Russell, pg 558

At least its not Avenged Sevenfold...the 'new GnR'.

Harding was a great man. When he found out about the scandals of his Veterans Bureau secretary he kicked his ass in the White House. He died before he could get to the rest of the idiots in his cabinet. Nixon is worst by default...he stepped down in shame (along with our Uncle Agnew), and nothing can be worse than that. Yes, LBJ was that bad. Vietnam was remarkably horrible...thousands of dead Americans, so many injuries (and an Agent Orange problem that will persist for a long time yet), a draft that split the country, huge amounts spent (this did more to damage his 'Great Society' than Nixon as LBJ refused to raise taxes as he felt such a move would show the country there was a serious problem in Vietnam), a bad result, etc. "I wont send American boys to do what Asian boys can do themselves," was the worst broken campaign promise in American history. He was personally corrupt, wheras guys like Grant and Harding were damaged by their own cabinets. Ran some of the dirtiest campaigns of modern times.

The Radiohead tour ticket prices really makes the Bonnaroo fee seem not so bad.

Worst presidents ever... 1.Richard Nixon 2.James Buchanon 3.Lyndon Johnson 4.George W Bush 5.Herbert Hoover I strongly disagree with anyone who puts WG Harding in the top 5 worst presidents ever.

The swearing/self-inserting guy is Matt Taibbi...an awful Hunter S Thompson impersonator. Normal RS articles are fairly well researched and written, but definitly biased.

I havent been bored by a DLH fight since his pride was hurt with the Trinidad debacle. I used to absolutely loathe Oscar, and Im still no fan, but his batles with Shane Mosley, Vargas, and moving up to middleweight definitly earned a lot of respect. If you find DLH boring then I suggest you either actually watch some of his fights...or just dont bother with boxing.

I dont think DLH-Mayorga will be boring.

Hes socially conservative.

So this Saturday is the boxing ppv headlined by Oscar De La Hoya vs. Ricardo Mayorga. Oscar is on the otherside of a legendary career, Mayorga is an entertaining/erratic puncher. Mayorga will be making his first defense of a 154lb belt, a belt that DLH once held for 2 years. The big rumor is that if DLH wins...he could face Mayweather in a SuperFight later this year. Undercard -Two of Golden Boy Promotions' hyped prospects fight each other...Kassim Ouma vs. Marco Antonio Rubio in a ten rounder. Jorge Paez Jr (7-0) vs. Lowell Brownfield (7-0)...4 rounds There might be another match added. Thoughts/predictions? Im taking Oscar by decision. Ouma by late stoppage in a fight-of-the-year candidate. Paez Jr by ko.

Our friends in Congress (such as Doctor Frist) have no problems with the manufacturing and prescribing of OxyContin...which is basically heroin in pill form.

Keeping it illegal allows for a bigger govt...Big Govt has become the goal of the current Republican Party.

Radiohead's US 'tour' is only playing a few small venues and tickets will sell out in minutes (already have for some). The soldout shows are up on ebay now at over $100 per ticket...really makes Roo look like a good deal.

How much of the current audience even knows what D-X was?

Is Live at the Fillmore in there?

Would 'Better Than Ezra' be considered wuss-rock?

This is definitly not the board to frequent for intelligent hiphop discussion.

I had Slanted, Enchanted on my x-mas list at age 9.

a**?

Good Charlotte.

David Mccollough's 1776 is a pretty compelling narrative so far.

Since we made a "no PBPs" rule. Yeah I don't get it either. Awful. I hope TSM doesnt make me un-ignore johnson.
