]]>Can I just say that Al Gore is AWESOME. Congratulations, Mr. President.
Yeah, that's right. I said "Mr. President." 'Cause we all know he won the 2000 election. I voted for him then and I'd be proud to vote for him again.

Tribute to War Dead
Heaven on Earth, we need it now
I'm sick of all of this hanging around
Sick of sorrow, sick of the pain
I'm sick of hearing again and again
That there's gonna be peace on Earth
And it's already gone too far
Who said that if you go in hard
You won't get hurt?
Jesus can you take the time
To throw a drowning man a line
Peace on Earth
Tell the ones who hear no sound
Whose sons are living in the ground
Peace on Earth
No whos or whys
No one cries like a mother cries
For peace on Earth
She never got to say goodbye
To see the color in his eyes
Now he's in the dirt
Peace on Earth
They're reading names out over the radio
All the folks the rest of us won't get to know
Sean and Julia, Gareth, Ann and Breda
Their lives are bigger than any big idea
Jesus can you take the time
To throw a drowning man a line
Peace on Earth
To tell the ones who hear no sound
Whose sons are living in the ground
Peace on Earth
Jesus sing a song you wrote
The words are sticking in my throat
Peace on Earth
Hear it every Christmas time
But hope and history won't rhyme
So what's it worth
This peace on Earth
Peace on Earth
Peace on Earth
Peace on Earth
(music and lyrics by U2)
]]>Do you own all the albums of any particular musical artist or group? Who?
Submitted by dutterman.
U2
Coldplay
I just realised something. If you count all the Best Ofs, I don't actually own all the U2 albums! I didn't buy their most recent release because it only had two new songs and I wasn't about to shell out that much money for songs I already owned. I'm not feeling the U2 love lately, I guess.

A successful coup d'etat affects not merely the history of a nation but may change its very power structure. With the killing of John Kennedy, the very position of the Presidency was drastically reduced in status. Henceforth, the President would be a broker for the war machine. He would be an advocate and spokesman for the Pentagon. All Presidents that followed Kennedy would have to know of their impotence, no matter what their public role.
And:
If we cannot have the truth once and for all about the government's murder of John Kennedy, if the warfare interests in our government are so powerful that they cannot be questioned about such things, then let us have an end to the pretense that this is a government of the people.
If the American people choose to do nothing about what was done to John Kennedy and about the subtle conversion of their country from a democracy to a thinly disguised version of the warfare state, then the republic is lost and we shall never see it again in our time.

Who would you like to trade places with for one day and why?
Submitted by Nathalie.
And only on January 20, 2009...if she wins. :-)
Why? Because I always wanted to be the first woman President of the United States.
