    "think and grow rich"

    I was given a copy for my high school graduation years ago. Basically it shows you how you can make any amount of money that you want - you set the goal. The book is entirely about the mindset, which makes it a timeless classic, rather than specific investing opportunities. It's a quick read...

    Everyone who had GA for the tour

    I don't really understand exactly what you mean by "cutting." I held a place in line for a buddy, but two of us got there around 11 and he showed up at about 3. Was that cutting??

    my sister's eating paint chips again, maybe that's why she's insane...

    So was this song released with different lyrics? I apologize for not knowing a damn thing about 3rd Eye Blind outside of Semi-Charmed Life, but these lyrics are amazingly good.

    What is your official U2 Summer Song?

    You crazy southern hemispherers. What??Christmas in summer. That would screw me up if I moved down under.

    Question on single 'Staring At The Sun'

    That part was played by Bono when it was performed live, so I assume he did it in the studio too. But I don't have the single version (is it different?), so I'm not completely sure what you're talking about.

    Brian Eno

    I think Eno-Lanois were just too involved in other projects to work with them (I'm not positive about this though). As far as Eno-Lanois doing a "new" album, I've heard that Lanois wants to move away from producing for a while and work on some of his own material. The band may want to wait for...

    U2, Inc - Money in Today's Music Industry

    Lyrically, ATYCLB is very, very weak and often borders on just plain cheese. Take this groaner for instance: In New York summers get hot Well into the hundreds You can't walk around the block Without a change of clothing or perhaps this one: The last of the rock stars When hip hop drove the...

    U2, Inc - Money in Today's Music Industry

    I wouldn't exactly know that since I haven't really been here over the past six months. Sorry about this. It's just been on my mind lately.

    U2, Inc - Money in Today's Music Industry

    Perhaps this was a bad example to include because they did not achieve "major" success with this album. However, I do feel the album had more of a pop sound than their earlier material.

    U2, Inc - Money in Today's Music Industry

    Many artists have been going to a poppier sound lately, with a great deal of success. R.E.M.'s Reveal, ATYCLB, Sheryl Crow, Alanis Morisette have all gone in this direction. Pop = high album sales. High album sales = lots and lots of money. Nothing profound there. With U2, everything has...

    Vote for U2's next "city song"

    I really hope that they don't do any more of these - it can get pretty cheesy pretty quickly. New York made me wince when I first heard it and now that it's become "meaningful," that makes it even worse. Personally, I really do not like the lyrics in this song at all. Instead, they should do...

    Apparently someone once thought this about me. Oh well.

    For the UK Wim Wenders film "Until The End Of The World" on BBC1 tonight

    It's a very interesting movie. However, I'm supposing that the version they're going to air is the commercial release which supposedly is not the way Wenders wanted it released. The director's cut, which has only been screened on a very, very limited basis and may (hopefully) be released when...

    The Report Of My Death Was An Exaggeration

    I think people falsely reported my death too.

    A Clockwork Orange

    I may be wrong about this because I've only seen this movie a few times and it's been awhile since the last time, but I believe that when Alex picks those two girls up in the record store, he does not proceed to rape them - it appears as though they willingly go with him ("You're invited!") and...

    Digital Filming + Projecting

    I have no doubt in my mind that digital filmmaking is the future and anyone who is interested in becoming a filmmaker must go this direction. Projection is still going to be primarily film (at least for a while longer) and actually that's perfectly fine. To an aspiring filmmaker, this doesn't...

    This is quite good. Great addition to an otherwise blase thread.

    What do you call a person who only speaks one language?

    An American. Apparently this is what a little girl (who was trilingual) answered when a man in New York asked her the other day. Cute.

    A question on the hypocricies of religion

    And about science not having any explanation for the "healing" of your father - that does not mean it was a divine power. People used to pray for good weather before we explained the weather with science (and subsequently became able to predict it with a high degree of accuracy). When the...

    A question on the hypocricies of religion

    I have one question about the virgin conception of Jesus - Why does the Gospel according to Mathew give the geneology of Jesus on Joseph's side if he was not sired by Joseph? This doesn't make any sense. Also, what kind of complications would occur during pregnancy and childbirth if the hymen...
