  1. A teacher that likes The Joshua Tree and Rattle And Hum is great news, whether he likes Zooropa or not.

    To me, that's a classical example of:

  2. I have to get up in 5 1/2 hours, and I'm still up and awake this inet in my private room already is a curse
  3. In a month dominated by racism in football, we have a TV broadcaster allegedly referring to Queens Park Rangers as Coons Park Rangers...debatable as to whether it was his scottish accent or not...



    I don't want to condemn him just yet, but the two words don't sound alike...

  6. In need of some help here!

    I'm taking a music and gender class, basically about women in music and how they've been objectified in a lot of music and left out of music history, as well as gender differences in music in general (doesn't have to only be about women).

    I have an essay proposal due TOMORROW and I still don't have an idea. Any help?

    And I'm not doing Rap, it's been done to death!
  7. Well I doubt this'll help you that much because it's already "tomorrow", but on the off chance you see this...

    -You could talk about an artist's music creating a movement that allowed women to break through a little more. For example, Pete Seeger's folk music of the earlier half of the 20th century inspired people like Joan Baez to get out and perform, who in turn inspired countless women through social beliefs and activism.

    -Aretha Franklin's emergence and the birth of the "diva"-- that could be REALLY interesting as you carry it through history and talk about "divas" like Donna Summers and the Supremes, all the way through Madonna in the 80s, Mariah Carey/Whitney Houston in the 90s, and what diva means today (pop superstardom? or heart & soul singers like Adele?)

    That's all I got bro.
  9. So in other news I just finished the most fascinating book I have read in a long time.

    Scorpion Down by Edd Offley. In 25 years of research the author has found a large amount of evidence to suggest that the U.S.S. Scorpion was lost not to and accident as widely accepted, but in combat with the Soviets.
