Play Alternative Tag Radio – Last.fm

Play Alternative Tag Radio – Last.fm
.
I’ve written about the stranglehold the RIAA has over our listening of music. I embedded a radio station tuner in this blog. I will admit my mistake, the RIAA are a great evil but the tuner I embedded was only half-ass at best. I use a plugin for Firefox for awhile but recently learned about Last.fm. I’v put FoxyTunes in my web browser of choice (Firefox) and will go out on a limb that using Last.Fm with it makes browsing the web a joy. I’ve embedded another radio tuner to give a chance to listen for yourselves. This is my favorite until the next big idea comes.

I had found Joost before and I couldn’t get in, it occurred to me that if I want an invitation (and I do) I should ask the most brilliant people in the world namely you. I don’t offer anything but my gratitude. Comment to this post and I will grab it as soon as it is posted and everyone that comes and reads the posts will see how great you are.



Is he live or Nixon?


Last night I saw the documentary (my wife hates documentaries) “US vs John Lennon” and I was struck by the similarities of the conflicts. Both were mismanaged, both saw too many American servicemen loose their lives, and both resulted in loosing face for America around the world. What really struck me (besides my wife watching after watching another documentary) was Nixon’s quotes used in the documentary and bush jr’s attempts to weasel out of the latest bad news. I couldn’t find the quotes on the internet to show you but I recommend the movie (I do want to mention the Yoko Ono still has tributes for John Lennon here in Japan were she lives) and read over this link I found that quotes a Nixon speech that sounds so similar to bush jr.
