That's just the Mohave Desert. We really didn't put a rover on Mars.

I wanna go there...Mars that is...not the Mohave.

The project that I'm currently working on will land on Mars in 2008. (crosses fingers)

Phoenix Mars Lander

Damn compos...you stole my line....It is just a sound stage in the Arizona desert.

Master of None,

I hope you have some Sun Devils working on that project. We do want it to succeed after all!

:)

that looks like a beer can way over on the left

Can the discovery of Martian trailer parks be far behind?

Nice. Now someone throw up an open thread. I'm gonna go to the store, get some beer, and I think I'd like to comment drunk tonight. Thank you.

Corn in the fields, and listen to the rice when the wind blows cross the water.

King Harvest has surely come!

How come there isn't more ELO on the radio? They had some good shit. Everytime there's a cool song in a movie, makes you say "Yes, haven't heard that in the longest time" it's always ELO. Almost always. Shine a little love, Everybody all around the world, the list goes on.

Ray, yu shouldn't om=ent runkt.

turst my.

I know dear Laura.

But I haven't in the longest time. And today I got way too much sun. Something in that makes me wanna get drunk and be sociable. Please understand.

Were I George Martin, I would have forced the Beatles to cut out the shit on the White album and distill it down to one kick ass platter. The world could have continued its existence without did not need Savoy Truffle and the ild.

If the good stuff on 'White' were one album, it would be regarded in the same league as Pepper's. No joke. Shame.

Both McCartney and Lennon were excellent songwriters and it's astronomicallly improbal tha they should have found each other. Jealousy and pride pushed each other to acheive, constantly attempting to outdo each other and reach for more (witness the solo careers when the pressure was off)

That said, McCartney was the better. Desprite his sappy oversweetness, his songs are just better. That's not to say Lennons aren't amazing, but McCartney's are just flat out better. This became especially pronouned in the later Beatles.

Lennon gets overpraised because he was a broken individual who adopted the 'bad boy' person while Paul remained the nice guy who tried too hard to please. Everyone likes the rebel. Those personality traits aside, Paul wrote the better stuff and, I think, Lennon knew it and he retreated to atonal howling as a way to avoid competition.

It works, too. That's how I used to get out of gym class.

King Harvest-

No question. Paul was just better. John could write a great song, and Double Fantasy was a great record, but when I think of the Beatles, it's always Paul.
Penny Lane is better than anything John ever wrote.
The late great George Harrison wasn't bad either. Not a great guitar player, but rock - solid.
