  1. Everyone has heard this song with a bass guitar intro that is unmistakable. Huge song --here;s all the lyrics with the title lines taken out--

    (talk about spoonfeeding!) ring some bells?

    Times have changed and times are strange
    Here I come, but I aint the same


    Times gone by seem to be
    You could have been a better friend to me

    You took me in and you drove me out
    Yeah, you had me hypnotized
    Lost and found and turned around
    By the fire in your eyes

    You made me cry, you told me lies
    But I cant stand to say goodbye


    I could be right, I could be wrong
    Hurts so bad, its been so long

    Selfish love yeah were both alone
    The ride before the fall
    But Im gonna take this heart of stone
    I just got to have it all


    Ive seen your face a hundred times
    Everyday weve been apart
    I dont care about the sunshine, yeah


    You took me in and you drove me out
    Yeah, you had me hypnotized
    Lost and found and turned around
    By the fire in your eyes

  2. A time lapsed exploding pill in the brain that's installed through the nose -- that'll get your attention.

    Alot of elements that are just too much, over the top, silliness --but well acted, perfectly executed so somewhat believebale for the story. Tom doing the rope swing around buildings and landing in the right place at the right time is comical but riveting--

    A stuntman's dream, this one --

  3. I just saw this documentary about the Police and their rise to fame all filmed by their drummer Stewart Copeland. Its one of the best and most interesting rock movies I've seen.

    I was and am a big Police fan, and this is so much more than a "Behind the Music". Copeland narrates in a laconic tone over all the footage taken on his Super 8 from very early in their career and stops awhile before their break-up. There's no new news about them, just more of a feel about what it was like on their way up. Its cool to see Sting carrying his own Samsonite and instruments--

    Andy Summers had me laughing out loud with his quips, Sting seems grouchy and self-involved, and Copeland self-deprecates throughout all the fun they had. Alot of interesting footage of scenery out Copeland's hotel rooms in time lapse backed by Police jams really gives a feeling of the isolation of the road, and the roadies, crew, and handlers all add alot of comedy and atmosphere to the proceedings.

    Alot of the music is remixed and sounds great. and once you get past the graininess of the film quality, you realize how special this footage is--you could never get this story in crystal clear film --Copeland's narration is also a tad wooden, but that adds to the "regular guy" aspect of the film--this is so far from a Hoillwood production that it makes it a triumph.

    If you want a movie about a bare-chested Sting singing the biggest Police songs, this ain't it -- if anything, this movie shows how important the other two were to the group, and not just musically--

  4. Once formidable teams, Pitt and TB -- TB went 11-5 last year and made the playoffs. They held the Skins to around 100 yards total offense yet lost in the first round--but that was last year--

    TB has been playing Allstott more and the rookie is getting better. The defense is very dinged up. Romo and Dallas sliced and diced the secondary for our last game 38-10--Alstott was hurt--

    I think it should be a great game--Will Evil Knievel Roethlisbereger start?

  5. Being that a feast is upon us in a couple weeks, got a fave recording about oral fixations?

  6. Funny -- I saw this and thought it might be about The New Cars, the re-formed Cars with Todd Rundgren in front and Elliott Easton and Greg Hawkes with two others -- killer stuff--
