The catchiest song about the King of Bongo ever made (That's Manu Chao, in case you wanted to check out more/blame someone for the song.)

HE WORLD ACCORDING TO BUSH
Sunday October 17, 2004 at 10pm ET/PT (2 hours)
repeating Friday October 22, 2004 at 10pm ET/PT
If you're not yet having nightmares about the world being in the hands of a circle of crazed zealots, this should do it. The World According to Bush, a two-hour documentary about the inner-workings of the Bush administration, will frighten even the most hardened Washington-watchers. Fans and critics of the acclaimed Fahrenheit 9/11 will want to see this thoughtful and damning investigation of the U.S. administration.

U.S. MEDIA BLUES
Airing Monday October 25 at 10pm ET/PT
French filmmaker Yves Boisset asks what has happened to the combative nature of journalism in today's America? Have reporters covering the White House, until very recently, been acting more like stenographers than journalists? Has the American media turned into courtiers at the White House and the Pentagon?
U.S. Media Blues offers a provocative and often disturbing look at the current role of the print and electronic press in the context of the fiercely fought Presidential campaign.

Hey MARY, yeah i didn't go to the SOHO shorts today, but unfortunately i've got to work this Tues and will not be able to attend the second show..ahh whatevs. but if you end up going tell me how they are.
Lastly here's some recent record reviews/recommendations from the LISTEN gang. Burwash knows his stuff! and yeah...obviously this really only pertains to Taylor
*Blood Brothers - Crime - V2 - CD
- The best hardcore-spazz band on the planet returns with "Crimes." Schizophrenic noise jacked up by frenetic guitars and wickedly warbled vocals create a mind-blowing and non-conformist punk album that's so good it's criminal. Get your ROCK on.
*Boredoms - Seadrum/House Of Sun - Warner Bros. Japan - CD
- Japanese only release of the new Boredoms studio album! [no scheduled release in the US] "Shaking! Amazement! A Thundering Blast of Fresh Air! Tears of Gratitude! Astounding! It's been a long time since their last release back in 1998, but a new work under the name Boredoms has been completed! The members have individually been playing in innumerable other bands over an incredible range, but finally the real thing starts! With the Boredoms' following of hardcore fans not only in Japan but overseas as well, what type of album is coming? This is an album to look out for!"

By the way, NetGear stuff is so much better than Linksys. Futureshop is running routers for 60 some bucks after rebate. I wouldn't go for their AOL pushin' though. They're offering 20 gift card bucks if you sign up for AOL and surrender your credit card to them. BLAH!

Hold up a second here! All I said was that he had some kind of hat-trick record where he was the only player in the league to achieve it. I clearly stated that I didn't know what the exact record was, and I believe I used the example of "something like 3 hat tricks in 3 games" as just that- an example; an example used to signify the general nature of the record. And considering that the actual record was "2 hat tricks in 2 games, being the only player to score", I should say I was pretty close.
Man, I jis' can't get no respect!!!

Yes, but I already apologized for that. Moreover, I'd kind of like to know exactly how many bets are being settled here...
