npfr: the war pre-game thread

I love you, John. NQ.

So, I can't wait for the halftime reporters to grab the coaches and try to ask them a question or two.

'Oooh, you can't be happy with your offense. What will you change in the second half?'

Seriously, this is a dark time for the US. Bush is either a complete incompetent or simply evil. I waver between the two.

And I feel even worse for our citizens

Except those of us who are berating France because they are just as reponsible for short-circuiting diplomacy as anyone else. Or berating them because we're sick of people acting like they're doing it out of the goodness of their little black French hearts.

Oooh booga booga.

Didsn't take much, as everyone got in line to scream about how stupid he was from the start.

Steven Sullivan wrut:

I'd just like to jump in and state that it's refreshing to read a piece of Internet correspondence that actually uses the word 'debacle' correctly.

That's all. Carry on.

Yes, I have, actually. You'll notice that I've been pretty quiet watching you and yours insult people whose opinions differ from yours. I've been ruminating, but I've avoided jumping in because there's little room for sensible discussion on Usenet anyway, and especially during such times. And I already regret giving my little opinion to ya'll. Although, it should be noted that you were among those I referred to earlier, re: France. Why aren't you out heckling the Dixie Chicks or something?

Most likely, although 'evil' is a bit strong. I'm sure he thinks he's doing what's best, but, it seems to me, what he's doing is evil. I suspect some of this *does* flow from his incompetence

Probably. I mean, we've a long way to go. We've gotta see if the DVD will even look good first (although initial viewings look good.) The CD would probably be only about 10 songs or so, and the DVD would be the entire show. There's always the possibility of releasing an anhanced CD as well, instead of a DVD. I'm not sure what the market for a CP DVD would be, anyway, whereas i *know* we can sell a boatload of CDs.

Are you familiar with the new band, Zwan? It's Billy Corgan and Jimmy Chamberlin from the Smashing Pumpkins doing inspired, positive, great music, and their new CD has a DVD on a seperate disc included with merely a $2.00 increase in price over just a regular CD release.

It's like a 'bonus', and a great promotional tool.

Hmmm. I'll have to consider that.

Don't y'all just love how changing the subject to music just took all the heat out of that part of the thread? Gotta love music.
