Thanks for the tip Jeff. I must admit to feeling just caustic enough to stir the pot when I wrote that post. I commend 'buddy for getting the "gates of delirium" in such a timely manner. I also wonder which struck more of a nerve; the genesis part, the bad musician part, or the non-musician part, lol.

You calling me a liar? [] I never heard the rest of the words on that site...but I remember doing it in my room like it was yesterday. I also remember it was the part of the song close to "There are two paths you can go by but in the long run..." and that web site shows the reverse part in that same spot. Seems like too big of a considence. Who knows if it was on purpose or not...but I remember hearing it for the first time and not sleeping all that well that night. Oh to be young again. Back on topic...I'll put in a 2nd choice for Misty Mountain Hop...hey whoopie cat! "Take a good look in the mirror and describe what you see(and baby baby do you like it?)." I'm not calling you a liar, lol, or even a fundamentalist nazi. Plant had this to say about it: "To me it's very sad, because 'Stairway To Heaven' was written with every best intention, and as far as reversing tapes and putting messages on the end, that's not my idea of making music."

Point taken. I did listen to Genesis back then , when acquaintances tried to show me that they were gods. Didn't buy it then either, but what can I say I was a real musical snob back then with impossibly high standards, bless my heart. They just never held a candle to ELP or Yes. Obviously I have a problem with saying how I really feel---or so I am told quite often.... Stolen fruit always tastes twice as sweet, so I have heard.

I can hear the whip from here buddy....

Agree about the history of flooding concerns, even so, if you do it this way run the wire through conduit and seal the ends as best you can. It is easiest to run the wire up through the wall and across the attic and back down to where you want it. Do it in the winter when attic temps are coolest.

Past performance may not reflect future returns. Your mileage may vary. You can be right 90% of the time predicting the weather by saying that it will be just like yesterday, but you will miss every important change. You are not buying a "stock" you are buying equity in a company. Charts are great at telling you what has already happened. Your risk tolerance is best expressed by how well do you sleep at night without worrying about your investments. Watergate does not bother me, does your conscience bother you? Sweet home Alabama. Your rate of return for your stock investments since 12/01/02 should easily be over 16% annualized with a simple dollar cost averaging 3 fund portfolio. It's not rocket science, it's commitment and discipline.

K-Mart had a big K too, but even rain man came to realize that K-Mart sucks.

That stuff about Zep and Satan was debunked a long time ago. Just some jealous fundamentalist nazis looking for the next "book" to burn.

I know what I like - Genesis I know what I think is inferior in the art rock genre of the time----Genesis. It always seemed then that the guys who liked Genesis were either bad musicians or not musicians at all--JMO of course.

A mind is a terrible thing. To waste beer is a terrible tragedy. Just say no to accidents involving beer.

I would say classic case of coincidence. With 85db of sensitivity and no horns, what's to like?

Here's one for dedicated Art Rockers: Stand and fight we do consider Reminded of an inner pact between us That's seen as we go And ride there In motion To fields in debts of honour defending

Under My Thumb--Rolling Stones

Yeah I love that one too. It is almost determined by the mood I'm in for choosing only one favorite. "Close the doors, turn out the light......no they won't be home tonight....

For something completely different try The Steeleye Span Story--Original Masters(2lp set). Old English, Irish and Scottish folk tunes set to rock. The track Fighting for Strangers is especially compelling.

The Graduate Forbidden Planet Enter the Dragon Dr Zhivago are a few worthies yet to be mentioned.

I read the book, so I will not be going to the movie. The book is not a bad read, though not great like Ludlum can be, and it also ends in that disappointing way Jeff reported. You are left with a "so what?" kind of feeling. It was probably designed with a sequel in mind, yet with nothing in mind for the sequel. "Digital Fortress" by the same author is an even more disappointing read. Stick with the big guns for thrillers.

Agree. Also Nobody's Fault But Mine, with it's awesome drum beat, an innovative application of a snare drumming rudiment to the drum set.

That is why untrained personnel are forbidden to touch my lps.

Thebes, try Fourth World Vol.1--Possible Musics, by Jon Hassell/Brian Eno.

Ahh, the Ginger or MaryAnn debate....

Yeah but they are so tame compared to Raider's fans.... I can't get enough of the playoffs because when it's over it seems like forever before the next season. Even though it is less of a break than most sports get.

Gowdy was great to listen to. For radio sports, the Dallas Stars team of Rayzor and Strangis are really good, they do radio and the same broadcast is for television, the best of both worlds. I remember listening to some old guy in the sixties on radio calling the Tacoma Cubs games after bedtime. He was great, but now I can't remember his name.

Of course it does depend on the church it was used in.....

And after that, walk on the rice paper without leaving a trace. Then you will have learned....
