Brilliant Form of Criticism

Although I personally think bashing the Bush administration has become extremely boring (and also largely irrelevant now), the clever use of the wikipedia page for FEMA to make a point is too smart to be just let go without a snapshot (Click on it).

Some Solitude

Solitude is a slow mellow song by Black Sabbath from their ‘Master of Reality’ album. As I remember mentioning once, the beauty of the song comes from the awesome solos and the flute (which I obviously do not cover).

Ozzy Osbourne is a strange man. On one hand, his on stage “occult” persona is obviously fake (which self-respecting satan worshipper shouts “god bless you all” at the end of a song?) and on the other hand he did bite off a dead bat’s head! It amuses me that someone would think the best way to impress a bunch of record executives is to (once again) bite off a live dove’s head (different from the bat incident) and the same personality could also pen lyrics that go,
You just left when I begged you to stay
I’ve not stopped crying since you went away


I guess satan gets senti too!
