Too long!
 
 Besides, I was just being facecous (sp?) after listening to some black lady who's a "history revisionist" and was trying to say the statue of liberty was really modelled as a black woman but 'the man' changed the shape of her nose to make her appear to be white! It just made me laugh...and  she was harping on about loads of other crap like that.

words and words and words........ what do they mean?
 
 Lets get this straight..... You will go on a five hour 100 mile bike ride, but you will not read a five minute article?

i'll have to say that louis jordan did some pretty rockin stuff...  it's shame that contemporary groups can't get that same early r n b, rockin' sound.  most contemporary r n' b/soul leaves me cold and rock could sure use a little boost in the jump/swing feeling.  everything has to be so cut and dry these days.

I used to say the same thing about women.
 
 Hell, I still do, but with only one in particular.

Buckaroo Banzai & The Hong Kong Cavaliers do a super-cool version of Rocket-88 in the movie.
 
 For me: The ultimate rock'n roll tune of olde is Jack The Ripper. (http://www.towerrecords.com/product.aspx?pfid=1202757)  It's killer.  In fact, Link Wray kicks major rock ass!  Check out RUMBLE too.  ACE OF SPADES ain't bad either.  This is a must-own disc, IMHO.

Mel Gibson's dad will tell you there was no holocaust.  Most of those "missing Jews" are in the Bronx and Boston and Chicago....
