This place is botulism-free, I gather.

mmmmmmm.... botulism.

food forum please.

Bigos Bigos Bigos!

To me, those choices demonstrate good taste.

"Do you love me now Mommy? DO YOU LOVE ME NOW?!?!?"

Absolutely. I'm not dismissing the rest of your post but this is precisely the direction we should be heading in.

#338 Songs by Canadian jambands that are currently broken up (playing once a year doesn't count...) 1. j'moor - The New Shady Groove 2. Dynamite - Blue Quarter 3. Fists of Funk - P.F. Station 4. Something With Feeling - Freeway Band 5. Horses - Rheostatics 6. Gypsy Sol - Leakin' Out The Bottom 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.

of course, all of these songs are on official releases right?

they're cool because they: -are running a music camp this summer. -are recording three albums in 2008, accompanied by unique tours and performances. -and will be playing three nights in Tel Aviv. and not only that they just rock, period.

I am picturing all of you butt naked.

you all must be heartbroken, an instrument is personal thing! I hope for you all that you recover your belongings. I also wish painful, glowing, incurable herpes upon those who purloined your shit.

Couldn't they have signed an agreement stating that chocolate chip cookies are freakin' delicious?

I disagree. Religion doesn't provide a doorway to decent and just behaviour(s) for the sake of being good in and of itself but for the sake of either entering the imagined kingdom of Heaven or avoiding the imagined cauldron of Hell (replace with parallel beliefs accordingly). If anything, religion allows a whole set of prejudices, injustices and hatred that too often stand in the way of these good and decent acts. On the other hand, who/what would the elimination of the Lord's Prayer hurt? It certainly wouldn't evoke a complete breakdown of society and has already been suggested, those who wish to recite it can still do so. It's not so much indicative of a "culture of entitlement" as it is reflecting a culture in perpetual progress.

HOW YOU FEELIN'?!?

There is nothing of any value that religion can offer us, not morally, certainly not factually. Now that the average Grade 12 student knows more about the nature of the natural world and the universe than most 19th century academics, it is absurd to draw upon the insidious and hypocritical tents of any strain of religion in order to better ourselves as individuals or as a nation. Religion and the fallacy of "God" are manmade products well past their due dates. Forgiveness, empathy, charity...... take religion out of the picture and all these principles still stand strong. If anything, the absence of religion make these principles easier to access. Therefore, we shouldn't even think twice about excising the Lord's Prayer not only from the Ontario Legislature but also remove the very hint of "God" from all public institutions, especially schools, where it ultimately borders on child abuse. The argument that "hey, it didn't do me any harm so why not?" is subjective to the point of insanity.

I think people would be better to look at Led Zep for 2009 Bonnaroo, not this year. From Plant to Page to the promoters, everyone has made it clear that nothing will progress on the LZ front until at least September.

in honour of phishtaper having the greatest avatar ever, I am declaring the current topic dead and done (sorry c-towns) and inviting phishtaper to start a new one. We shouldn't do this as a matter of course but maybe - for the first time ever - we should just cut our losses and move on. This thread is now 1 year, 1 week old!

Happy Birthday Margaret! Have a great one!

quite frankly, Vince Gill.

Brian - all the best to you on your birthday brother. I shall enjoy a cold one in your honour! Happy Birthday dude!

Peter Tosh, Legalize It
