Is everyone not hearing what I'm not hearing?

I'm getting no audio right now, even though Winamp seems to think RP is playing...

what's going on?

Shhh - listen! Do you hear that? Me neither. It's quiet. Too quiet.

Yet another strong set from Bill -n- 'Becca.  (Rebbecca never gets her due here — maybe she should start DJing a bit!)

I have always wanted to use the "FACT" label that internet flamers use to 'add weight' to their idiosyncratic subjective opinions. So here goes. FACT #1 The last time there was a King AND Queen of England < assuming that the implication is that we are talking about the British Royal Family > was 1952. FACT #2 Bob Marley was seven years old in 1952 FACT #3 Construction of terminals at Heathrow Airport began in 1951, and probably would not have been finished by February 1952, when King George VI died. FACT #4 The King and Queen were well known for their appreciation of Dennis Brown, and always felt that the plaudits showered on the young Marley were an affront to the more talented Dennis Brown. It is unlikely they would have asked to see the seven year old Marley for this reason. FACT #5 There is a special offer available to all Americans; you can rent airspace over Heathrow Airport! Yes, for only US$10,000 a year you can own one cubic meter of space of the flightpath into and out of the World's busiest airport! Even better than that, you can levy charges on all aircraft movements through 'your' airspace! Be wildly rich! Absolutely no risk! Simply mail a check for $10,000 ( made payable to C.A.S.H. ( Civil Aviation Services Heathrow)) to me and I will send you BY RETURN the co-ordinates of your cube of airspace!

It's not that surprising, surely. Marley was a highly political man and wrote political songs designed to inspire, educate and agitate. I suspect that he would have been pleased that his songs polarised opinion and led to contention. I never got into his music much myself, but I do admire his songwriting and his very active commitment to social justice and fighting on behalf of the oppressed, from whose ranks he came.

An objective person would have pointed out that natural crisis first response is at a local and state level, yet I don't see you mention anything about the culpability of Kathleen Blanco and Ray Nagin, which leads me to think you are a sufferer of BDS.

Bob Marley's lyrics to this song deal with the rich getting richer and the poor poorer, but the poor get angry when they can't get their basic needs met. That's what the song is about. During Katrina, the poor were left hungry to die for days. That was a policy decision, never happened before in my lifetime in this country, ever. McCain was celebrating his birthday cake with Bush when this was going down. So Marley's song applies to what happened those days completely.

It always surprises me how whipped up some people get when a Bob Marley song is played. I guess I'm not that deep, I really just enjoy the music.

His belly full too. Your point?

Them belly fully, but we hungry.
A hungry man is an angry man.

... that you must do drugs to enjoy Pink Floyd, the Dead, the Doors, and Hendrix, too, right?

may the memory of Bob live on! I remember reading a story about Bob in the Heathrow airport. The king and queen where there for some reason or another and sent an escort to invite Bob for a meeting. Upon hearing this he told the escort "Tell them they can come to me". What a man

blah blah
too much praise

I never needed Marley in my life
I dont care HOW much you smoke

pass

the version that they just played IS NOT from the "Live at the Roxy" album. Does anyone know where that one is from?
