    They're going to call it "racism"

    Mark my word, discrimination against transgenders will be called Racism in the near future. Yes indeed, if you ridicule or harass trannies, you will be accused of racism. I'm pretty sure transists (I guess I'm inventing a new variation of feminists) will label it as such. What else are they...

    The belief that God has "perfect timing"

    Have you ever heard the expression that God is "never early and never late, he is always on time"? Isn't that open to interpretation? It's up for debate. After all, who's to say that his perfect timing is the perfect timing. If his timing were so perfect, would suicide really exist? It...

    Fun Bo Jackson

    Was Bo Jackson overrated? It seems to me that the main reason he's considered one of the top 50 athletes of all time is for trivial matters. He would hit 20-something homeruns, and there was one season when he hit 32, always with a so-so batting average. Football-wise, it was more of the same...

    Fun Spices

    Spices you eat daily? I eat Oregano, Paprika, and Chili Powder daily. If you have year-round allergies, you probably know black pepper is mildly effective. However, the aforementioned spices are quite good, perhaps much better.

    Fun Strange things on the side of the road?

    We've all seen strange things, on the side of the road, while traveling. What's the strangest thing you've seen? When I was fresh out of high-school, several moons ago, my uncle and I were coming back from a larger city. We were coming back from my having taken the TASP exam, when we saw a male...

    Fun Any quotes you don't care for?

    "Everything happens for a reason." Not at all. If I'm posting at the library, and some nut decides to blow me away just because he lost his girlfriend, lost his job, and wanted to make the headlines, I fail to see a legitimate reason, per se. "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger." I may...

    Fun Under-Rated Bands?

    I think Styx was incredibly underrated, easily one of the best bands of the 70's. No disrespect to Stairway to Heaven, but Suite Madame Blue is my fave 70's power ballad. Renegade, Too much time on my Hands, and Crystal Ball are also great songs. Even 'Come Sail Away' has grown on me a bit...

    Controversial What constitutes "selling out"?

    What (in your opinion) does "selling out" involve? For example, Metallica began being called sell-outs from the Black Album onward. Is it simply because the album appealed to a larger audience, or is there something more to it? Then there's the Load/Re-Load albums. Did the "die-hard" fans not...

    Review Your top 5 Metallica albums?

    1. Re-Load: All the songs are great. I think "attitude" is the only song I don't consider above-par. 2. Ride the Lightning: Great hits/non-hits, and "trapped under ice" is the only weak-link here. 3. Master of Puppets: I think "orion" is overrated, but it's their fastest album, and "battery" is...
