一篇被台湾网站封杀的帖子（写的特好没治了）此贴是一个大陆网友在外独会发的，20分钟后被台湾网管以今天中国的贴子太多为理由删除。这个贴子在20分钟内有超过200的浏览量，但只有3个台独分子回复，出奇的没有对贴子反映的内容提出质疑。1：大陆敢不敢对台湾使用核武器？有台独朋友说："大陆要是敢对台湾动用核武器那么世界将对大陆扔下核弹。"在这里，我只能对如此幼稚的问题表示嘲笑。试问，如果美国有一天用核武器炸掉北朝鲜，请问你认为中国与俄国会对美国本土发射核弹么？反过来说，如果有一天大陆用一颗核弹摧毁台湾，请问如果你是美国总统首先考虑的是给台湾人报仇还是首先保证自己民族的生存？别忘了，有两万枚核弹并不比几千枚核弹强哪怕那么一点点。对同样具备全球毁灭能力的中国动用核弹无疑宣布"同归于尽"你们认为美国人会为台湾与大陆同归于尽么？你们认为世界上有任何一个国家和政府愿意为台湾与大陆同归于尽么？同时必须告诉各位

So this morning I paid a visit to America's coffee imperialists, Starbucks, and was appalled by their daily poll question; Marvin Gaye vs. Smokey Robinson...much to my disappointment, Marvin Gaye held a 60-40 advantage over the man Bob Dylan once referred to as his favorite poet.Do you agree with the customers of Starbucks on this, or do you side with myself and Mr. Dylan.

On Talk of the Nation, Music journalist and author Greil Marcus talks about Like A Rolling Stone: Bob Dylan at the Crossroads, his new book about the recording of the 1965 hit.From the other side of the pond, the Guardian gets behind the movement to award Leonard Cohen he Nobel Prize for Literature.

for linking this. Too bad the official release sucks donkey balls. The vocals aren't the same (ok, so maybe Mike Love isn't a total douchebag, he sounds amazing on the 1966 tapes) and the production lacks the same warmth as the original. Nonetheless, the album serves as a template for Wilson's original vision for the album. Still, if you want to hear it right, e-mail me and I'll burn you some

"Andrew, why do hate Top Gun?" and the answer is pretty simple. Aside from being the second cheesiest movie ever made (behind Beaches), my disdain for the film stems from its mockery of one of the greatest songs of all time. People often overlook the genius of Righteous Brothers, but to openly mock "(You've Lost) That Lovin' Feelin'" is downright shameful. Bill Medley's vocals are as good as it

and I noticed a bunch of white guys with bad hair on BET. I immediately thought; "do they not know that the Insane Clown Posse are really white underneath that makeup?" But then, I figured out that it was the Mannheim Steamroller Christmas concert.

So what's new since my last ramble?! Well lots of things.... Most significantly, the new Morrissey single comes out today! That's right kids, the Pope of Mope is back, and doesn't disappoint. Also,

I snagged a promo copy of the new William Hung album for a listen, and I'm kind of up in the air about it. The first 6 or 7 songs are good, in fact Hotel California is MUCH better than the original, but then again, Thumper sounds better than the overproduced shite that is the Eagles. Anyway, I guess my point is the first few songs are fun, but then the novelty wears off about the time "Can You

So I've been reading this book, Sweet Soul Music for the past few days. It touches on every element of Southern Soul music from Solomon Burke, to James Brown to the Big O, Otis Redding, with of course a great deal of it focusing on STAX. At any rate, it comes highly recommended from Andrew 3000.

So I went to see Herbie Hancock Thursday Night down in Columbia, Missouri and it was well worth the drive. Easily the best show of 2004 so far.
