By the way, the notable, memorable Charles Ives was an insurance salesman... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EU85bUyDPWs -- Nothing quite like enjoying serious music over the high audio quality youtube network. Perhaps that is better, though, than herring's usual methodology...stealing musical intellectual property for playback and encouraging others to do so, too. A few years ago, the lawyer that handled the corporate legal affairs for my manufacturing concern let me borrow his external hard drive to transfer the music, .wav, .wma, .mp3, to my own. He had about 300 gigs of an eclectic collection ranging from Pete Seeger to OMC. I didn't ask him where he got the music... -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service -------http://www.NewsDemon.com------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access |

And compassion has lost its meaning as well. What did you expect with big fat over weight over spending government? Goverment of size never has cared about people, it is about giving the people the minimum to be happy, while supporting the big government. That isn't compasion or caring, just the way they operate. Understanding this helps one understand government. Case in point, with debt spending so high, and the economy in such sick shape, why does the government not defer health care for 10 years? Or why did they not do this 10 years ago? Why now? Simple, tax greed. If government gets the revenue, they can slide the service levels down, inclrease your taxes as the rouse and government has a big time new source of money from the people. In effect, skiming health care cash flow for fat government. Government know it can't into perpetuity create ponzi money and they want revenue! The real reason why health care comes up now is revenue. Government wants more of your wealth. And what were you saying when Bush was starting dubious wars? Yes, those are good investments? Actually, that would make a good bumper sticker. It would go something like this: "I realize that this is an informal fallacy called a red herring argument, and I understand that it is an illegitimate argument because it is not germane to the argument at hand; however, being that it is a convenient argument capable of effectively diverting from the argument at hand, and I'm too lazy to (or it's too much of an inconvenience, or I'm not a deep thinker), I must ask with all due diligence and with little respect to sound argumentation, 'And what were you saying when Bush was starting dubious wars? Yes, those are good investments?' Honk if you love red herring!" I do. John Herring Now please stop taking my name in vain. I'm sorry, John. I'll flail myself thoroughly before I retire to my bed of nails this evening, when I quit for the day. It won't happen again... You say that, but when someone throws another red herring out there you'll pounce on it like a starved cat. That's OK. I'll just go honk. I think you've done figured me out. :) Turn your volume up, sit back, and listen to this. It's got to be the most spectacular finish ever to a symphony. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4U0y8zZm28 As my daughter would say, "Cool beans!" That piece has quite the fanfare, for sure. Being the "smarmy" dilettante of tortured prose that I am, though, I think this allegro by Charles Ives is more in keeping with this thread and my accentuated foibles. I'm certain that JPS and Harry would find rewarding parallels between this piece and my bloated bloviations, if I may exercise some patented turgidity in saying so. By the way, the notable, memorable Charles Ives was an insurance salesman... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EU85bUyDPWs The first part sort of reminds me of a semi-coherent part of a John Cage concert. I went to one many years ago and fell asleep on my date's shoulder. The last thing I remembered was a baby crying. It was part of the performance! You're an insurance salesman? That's almost as bad as a lawyer. :) I know. And to add insult to injury, my sister's a lawyer. (University of Iowa.) Gurl power! -- Nom=de=Plume |
