Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

'Underneath'


Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

How much do I adore the band SNOG?

"I'm chewing the chewing gum of hate
I chewed it long I chewed it late
I'm chewing the chewing gum of hate
Munch munch, great great"

They're so WEIRD.

Of course "Christmas Everyday" is a grim, visceral condemnation of the Bush White House, in no uncertain terms ("It's Christmas, every day, for those murdering freaks in the White House") - so I adore them even MORE.

That's hilarious, Jon! And cool!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Awesome, Jon!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yay Jon!

ION, has anyone tried LyricRat? You enter what lyrics you can remember for a song you want to find, and it searches for you....

I searched for "just like sister ray said" and it correctly flagged that as the VU's "Sister Ray." OK, maybe that was too easy as I used the song title in the search. Am now searching on "two cats in the yard" and it's been running the search for several minutes without returning results yet....

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

My first hit was [link]

I tried "i want to walk around with you" on LyricRat and it failed to find the song ("Summertime Clothes" by Animal Collective).

I had to rerun the search on "two cats in the yard" but this time it did find the song.

Because books.

Yeah, Google always works fine for me with lyrics.
