Plugs.
Check out the funny ass video the Angry Piper posted at the WoW. Also, no plugs today for RubberSuit Studios, sorry, I promised some, but I am busy with client work.
Also if you live in the New Bedford area, check out The Furniture Place for furniture. Not your typical low brow New Beige furniture discounter. Some mid range to high quality pieces at very good prices. Right next to Flagship Cinema on King's Highway.
You are listening too . .
One of the most beautiful musical anthems ever made, All You Need is Love. Among the most significant, beloved, and famous songs by the group, it was original played for a 2 hours live television special called Our World. It was specifically written by Lennon, with some McCartney contribution for the special, which aired in over 400 million homes in 1967. It was republished as the closing track on Magical Mystery Tour.
Lennon was asked to come up with simple song, that all nationalities of the world could understand. Lennon worked off a song from Rubber Soul, The Word, which has a similar theme. Many were immediatley amazed by the song, the fact it would not be misunderstood in any culture or language. Lennon also considered it a propoganda song, like many of his later solo works.
Ironically it was the last song recorded and released before Brian Epstein death, and perhaps the high point of the interpersonal relationships between The Beatles.
Because of the international feel of the song, it was given a worldly flavor. Hence the opening of the song with La Marseillaise and several other snippets of song during the long fadeout (2-part Invention #8 in F by Johann Sebastian Bach (transposed to G and played on 2 piccolo trumpets), Greensleeves (played by the strings), Glenn Miller's In The Mood (played on a saxophone), one of the Beatles' seminal hits (particularly in Great Britain), She Loves You (spontaneously ad-libbed by John and Paul), and Jeremiah Clarke's Prince of Denmark's March lilting off at the end).
The songs structure is acutually a bit complex. The background repeatedly sing's "love, love, love" while Lennon's verse are in 7 /4 time, and the chorus in 4/4. It is one of only two songs to every reach the top 20 US in 7/4 time (if you can guess the other one correctly you get a prize). The only difference between the album and live recording is that Lennon rerecorded some of the vocals he was unhappy with.
The song message endures today. All you need is love.
That ends our look back at Magical Mystery Tour. The White Album is next, but because it took so long to record, The Beatles had a number of their most famous hits in between, we will explore those next.

Hey here's some shocking news.
The majority disagrees with Dubya about his veto of the Iraqi funding bill. How much longer we got with this idiot?
MMMMMMMM

Hey Jeffri Chadiha, of ESPN.com
You sir, are a moron, for this article. The Patriots were not about to give in to Deion Branch. Do your research. The Pats were more than willing to sing Branch. Problem was, Branch was already signed to play 2006 with the Pats. He decided he did not want to wait until 2007, when his contract was up, and then go for the money, he wanted it, when he was signed already.
The Pats have never, nor will they ever deal with a players contract when they are already signed. Branch was going to sit out his last year, so the Pats, being the smart team they are, traded a mid range reciever for a 1st round draft pick. They only payed a 4th rounder for Moss. You are stupid, and since you don't list contact info at ESPN, you can follow backlinks here, at least my contact info is right on the page.
So.
How much whiskey was need to accomplish this? Or, how much whiskey to tear it all apart?

UGH!

There is a new 8 1/2 by Eleven up, and I must say, there is not enough Theramin comedy in the world . . . most of you might not know what a Theramin is, unless you are a fan of the Beach Boys. Listen for the strange whistling sound.
Also, there a couple on funny posts up at the wow. This one, I am a Marvel . . and I'm a DC is hilarious. Malach also put up some new undercover video of Otis Serungis, and a Top Ten Terms for Defecation list.
UGH!
The Kombucha Mushroom People lost thier first game today. The site is updated mostly. We never play well under the lights, and that is what happened today. And Papelbon just blew his first save . . see it is all interrelated.
Bush Veto.
So Dubya, evidently did not get the message from the last election and vetoed the Iraq Bill. This is going to be a VERY interesting showdown, especially since 70% of the American People want out. If we are going to stay into Iraq, there needs to be some major changes, included the possibility of conscription. Remember how long Japan and Europe were occupied after WWII? What, yeah they still have a US military presence.
Immigration.
There is a huge push to possibly legalize all illegal Americans who have been in this country for 5 years. This is getting closer to reality. Malach works for an organization that does extensive work with illegals and undocumenteds. Here what you need to do to be prepared. Get everything you can find to prove you have been here for 5 years, employment record, land lord letters, etc, and wait. While waiting protest.

You got to love MSNBC headlines . . .. Waterfowl wage genital warfare . . and of course the sub headline . . . . 'Arms race' has resulted in longer phalluses, more elaborate vaginas. Seriously though, is this science, can one go to graduate school and study duck genitalia?

I'd love to turn you on.
No Plugs.
See I told you it was a day of rest.
Randy Moss.
So, for those of you that did not know, Randy Moss was traded to the Patriots today for a 4th round draft choice in this years draft. Needless to say I am pretty speechless. Many were shocked. But before I begin on my why Randy Moss will fit into this team argument, let me give you two things. 1. Moss restructured his contract to come play here, instead of the $9 million he was owed, he cut that to $3million plus incentives, so does this show a change of attitude, time will tell. 2. Bellichick has NO ISSUES cutting any player, no matter the talent, who does not fit in . . see Jonathan Sullivan, Doug Gabriel, Lawyer Milloy, etc, etc.
The Patriots, who have already had a killer offseason, have added the following players beyond Moss. Adealius Thomas, Donte Stallworth, Wes Welker, Kelly Washington . . . Remember also, they were 1 first down away from going to, and probably winning another Super Bowl . . they did this with Rodney Harrison and Eugene Wilson out, Lawrence Maroney hurt, and a 3rd reciever (Reche Caldwell) as their number 1, and 4th reciever (Jabbar Gaffney) as their number 2.
Why will this work and what will it do. Well, Stallworth and Moss now become the best receiving tandem in the Bellichick era, and have the potential to be the best tandem in the league. The Pats have taken plenty of malcontents: Rodney Harrison, Corey Dillion, Brian Cox, and turned them into team players. Dillion is perhaps the best example. Dillion quit on Cincinnati when he was no longer the man, he was sick of losing, and had a bad attitude. That changed with the Patriots. Even now, when he knew he was being replaced by Maroney, he did not put up a whine fest, he just asked to be released. Moss, has quit on teams, he has been on a really bad team in Oakland, and in Minnesota, they couldn't get anywhere deep into the playoffs. One thing about Moss, he wants to win. Imagine to, Moss made Culpepper, Culpepper has not done it without Moss . . . Imagine if Moss can do the same to Brady, already one of the best quarterbacks of all time. The Patriots player police themselves and guys on that team, don't put up with malcontents
Again, here is the Bellichick system. You play hard, you play for the team, if not, you get benched and eventually discarded. Everyone is the same . . the man has even benched Richard Seymour. This is Moss best chance to help cement his hall of fame status.
Only time will tell, but I am damn excited.
Some more Beatles stuff.
We will be moving out of Sgt. Pepper tomorrow. The Beatles get very interesting. They start to break down as a band, and there are many causes for it. They also make some of the most innovative music of all time.
After Espstein died, their business affairs began to unravel. They spent a bit of time healing in India, and upon their return, McCartney and Lennon formed Apple Corps. Dissention began to really develop in the band, and their were many factors: Lennon and McCartney different ideas about the Beatles musical direction, the introduction of Yoko Ono into the band's dynamic, Harrison want more of his own songs, and the division between the band about who should now manage their affairs. We will go more into this later.
