I just listened to 'My Humps' for the first time in years and it's kind of hard to believe Black Eye Peas actually got WORSE after that. Will.i.am's verse in that song is amazing in its total worthlessness.

Either!

Sky Blue Sky is where I checked out on Wilco. I wasn't in love with A Ghost is Born, but I still thought it was good. SBS just bored me, though. I've heard their more recent albums have been good, but I just haven't felt like checking them out.

'6'7' is a pretty awesome single, though.

This is basically what happened with me and all the punk bands I liked in my youth. Sorry, entire rosters of Hellcat, Epitaph, and Kill Rock Stars, I'm old now.

I can see that, even though I thought it was alright.

Well, both go well with drugs.

'Centuries' is a song that drives me up the wall. I guess somewhere along the line their singer decided just straight yelling was the best way to go about the vocals.

It's the album that made Mike Mills a nerd hero to the very young me. I remember seeing him play 'Near Wild Heaven' on Regis and Kathy Lee and thinking, 'that guy looks like me!'

I know a lot of people don't like REM and especially don't like Michael Stipe, but I find it hard to accept there are people out there who don't like 'Nightswimming'.

'BM in the PM' sounds like it could be a Blowfly song, but he's dead now.

I'm imagining what the pie would be like with maple syrup instead of corn syrup, besides damn expensive, and in my mind it would be too rich (though a touch of maple might be good).

I agree. I really enjoyed reading this. The description of ham made me long for ham and lima bean soup, which I grew up hating, but now love (the case with so many dishes involving lima beans or green peas, two staples on our family dinner table).

Maybe the author meant 'required'

What is the core problem? That it is a leisurely played game that is meant to be enjoyed at the fan's leisure?

Why, MLB? You're too late for the BIG TV market anyway. If the people who run the game are too bored to watch the game, they should get out of the game. Or I guess just ruin your game like the NFL did.

After living in Baltimore the past three years, I've seen too much of the Maryland flag. I like Colorado, it looks like a rejected Converse logo form the '80s.

It would probably rate top five among nations, if such were the case. What state do you think could beat it out?

He was the only one who was believable as a metalhead! I've always appreciated Michael McKean's delivery of the phrase 'dick cheese' in that movie.

It would also dramatically, negatively change our GDP, but I'm guessing they're probably not thinking about that.
