Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Shoot. I thought you meant a PARTY. Cake and balloons :(
"A stupid despot may constrain his slaves with iron chains; but a true politician binds them even more strongly by the chain of their own ideas;...despair and time eat away the bonds of iron and steel, but they are powerless against the habitual union of ideas, they can only tighten it still more; and on the soft fibres of the brain is founded the unshakable base of the soundest of Empires."

Jacques Servan, 1767
New That is July 4th at BP's house

New Yeah! Let's hold our convention then.
For pres I nominate boxley. And for VP? Who else but BP.
Don Richards,
Proud recipient of the ABBA.
New do they generally disagree?
Because that has to be a prerequisite for our ticket.
We have to fight the terrorists as if there were no rules and preserve our open society as if there were no terrorists. -- [link|http://www.nytimes.com/2001/04/05/opinion/BIO-FRIEDMAN.html|Thomas Friedman]
New Well.. since that's at Eastern Corporate-HQ territory
Can I send a surrogate?

I nominate George Carlin for, Honorary Minister of Propaganda and Tactical Guidance Counsellor.








(And I believe that, if he thought we *WERE* Tragico-Comico-Satirically Serious enough about the project?)






He. Just. Might. Come.*

And as world's keenest BS-detector - who better to edit our planks for accuracy, clarity and Just Plain Goodness, I ask?

Proposals for wording that Invitation ???




* Seriously [um.. Really!]
New Mr. Chairman,
Ashton sez:

"I nominate George Carlin for, Honorary Minister of Propaganda and Tactical Guidance Counsellor."

I move we strike the word "Honorary" from that proposal.
Regards,
Ric
New Mme. Chairman, per Roberta's Rules of Order
The nominator agrees to proposed amendment: strike 'honorary' - consider substituting, 'Lifetime' ...



Party of the First Part
New Not a born in, cant run :) Ventura might be available?

New Also we need to find out requirements on how to get on the
ballots in all 50 states. We can hold a convention with all members not able to attend to vote via the web on a platform, build state parties first then go national. No reason it wouldnt work but it is a LOT of work.
thanx,
bill

New Typical...
I come up with the idea and you don't even think of me for "vice"... I'm hurt. But if we will be nominating folks, I'll put Alvin Toffler for Secretary of State, Kurt Vonnegut Jr. for Secretary of Education, etc...

We'll call it the Third Wave Party? (TS Elliot, this ain't no beach party neither... no cake, no balloons - unless of course you want them?) No wait, maybe we should make Rodney Dangerfield secretary of State....
Just a few thoughts,

Screamer

"I'll tip my hat to the new constitution, take a bow for the new revolution, smile and grin at the change all around, pick up my guitar and play, just like yesterday..."

P. Townshend

"Nietzsche has an S in it"
Celina Jones
New the party on the left is now the party on the right
my alltime favorite song with behind blue eyes being the second.
thanx,

New Part of "Lifehouse"
Hi Bill,

You may recall that on ezboard I said I was going to review the 6 CD boxed set [link|http://www.eelpie.com/products_music.html|Lifehouse Chronicles] I got from England quite a while ago... :-) Unfortunately, I haven't had time to listen to the whole thing more than once, so I don't think I can give it justice in a review, but I'm glad I got it. It would be nice to be able to buy it in the US - the shipping was something like $30+...

Lots of the great Who songs were conceived with Lifehouse in mind. Seeing how many were part of the project gives me more perspective on what he was trying to say.

See how many of these songs you recognize.

Teenage Wasteland
Goin Mobile*
Baba O'Riley*
Time is Passing
Love Ain't for Keeping
Bargain*
Too Much of Anything
Music Must Change*
Greyhound Girl
Mary
Behind Blue Eyes*
Sister Disco

I Don't Know Myself
Put the Money Down
Pure and Easy**
Getting In Tune
Let's See Action*
Slip Kid*
Relay
Who Are You
Join Together*
Won't Get Fooled Again*
Song is Over

* One of my very favorite songs.
** #1 of Pete's songs for me. It's on "Who Came First" (one of his earliest solo albums) too.

The boxed set of 6 CDs is 2 CDs of the Lifehouse Demos, 2 CDs of experiments and orchestrations which includes several instrumental versions of some of the songs, and 2 CDs are the Lifehouse radio play from the BBC from 1999.

The book with the set is interesting - 43 pages with an interview with Pete, the complete lyrics to the songs, and the text of the radio play.

Pete's one amazing guy....

Cheers,
Scott.
I.e. I'm gonna find a home on wheels see how it feels Goin Mobile...
