Sorry... they have some good songs... however, every radio station like Kiss FM gets the brilliant idea to randomly throw in green day songs in their day. It would be fine if it was once in a while, but it is like every day.

I'm seeing both of them friday, and i was curious what the crowd is like. I saw Alkaline trio at warped tour a couple of years ago, and it exausting. People were shoving and there were times where my feet were not touching the ground.

I've also rage at lolla this year.... i lasted up front for about a half hour.

Compared to those concerts how intense is it. How easy is it to get up front and stay there? How early should i get to the theatre?

Thanks

How hard is it to be close to "front row"?

I saw Alkaline trio at warped tour a while ago, and i the crowd was pushing so much that my body was moving, but my feet weren't touching the ground...

I saw rage at lolla, but i didn't last long in the front.

Im going to the alkaline trio/ rise against concert friday. Thanks

I believe that the bailout is a necessary evil... unless you don't want to be able to take out a loan in the near future... or if you want the stock market to crash.

Yes... there are some dumb@ss CEO's and rich people we are bailing out.... but both candidates are working to hold those companies more responsible... meanwhile....

If we didn't bail out these companies.

BANKS would be affraid... Banks WOULDN'T WANT TO LEND OUT MONEY FOR ANYONE!!! Andy they would eventually Fail !!!

You've seen the stock market... it thrives off of whatever is happening in the government.

ex: they didn't agree on a bail out plan... stock market plundged almost 800 points in one day

Ex2: Bush met with countries to adress the crisis... market shot up around 900 points.

Finally... what the source of the problem is:

- People not living within their own means

- Government deregulation of the banks

- banks making bad decisions

- Housing bouble: people relying on their house as their major asset/investment

Sarah Palin's husband is a member of the ALASKAN INDENDENT PARTY!!! Sarah Palin, although "not a member," has attended the party conventions, has adressed the convention... saying, "Keep up the good work."

The founder of the Alaskan Independent Party, Joe Vogler, stated(AIP):

"I'm an Alaskan, not an American. I've got no use for America or her damned institutions."...

"The fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my HATRED FOR THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT. And I won't be buried under their damn flag."

Sounds like a pleasant guy who loves America... Why is Obama criticized for his "associates", but not Palin???... just boggles my mind.

McCain and Palin have no problem bashing Obama for Ayers or the "terrorist ties"... but why didn't he confront Obama to his face during the debates?

If Ayers and Obama's so called terrorist ties are a major problem... why didn't he call out Obama to his face?

I respect McCain... but come on... here are some reasons why i'm not taking him very seriously

1. picking Palin; the unusual

2. Saying "We are all Georgians" and posturing against Russia and drumming up old Cold War sentiment among Republicans

3. saying if he was president he'd fire the chairman of the SEC... during this economic crisis

4. Suspending the debate to "help" out the Economy... when he admitted the economy was not his strong point.

5. Refusing to let Palin to be interviewed

6. Taking Credit for the bail out bill... before he even knew if it was going to pass.

I respect McCain as an experienced senator.... however... does he really need to be this extreme?

Sorry lately it seems like McCain is being way to desperate. He seems like he is over reacting way too much... what are your thoughts.

1. picking Palin: the unususal...

2. Saying we are all Georgians... and we need to back Georgia

3. Partially cancelling GOP convention because of hurricane Gustav

4. Calling to fire the chairman of the SEC... during this economic crisis

5. Suspending the debate to "help" out the Economy... when he admitted the economy was not his strong point.

6. Refusing to let Palin to be interviewed

If you have seen the latest. News both Clintons are not giving their full support of Obama... when asked if she thought Palin was a qualified VP she diverted the question, because she doesn't want to upset hillary/Palin supportors. Lately neither of them clearly states their for Obama.

What a self centered *****

Don't support her next time she runs... cause she will stab the Dems in the back.

hahaha....listen to the republican audience.... (how could you) looks a little guilty... doesn't even deny it.... just diverts the question saying that is not for town meetings

Instead of Blaming republicans.... or dems read this article...

United States House of Rep. Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, Hearing on the automotive technologies for fuel economy. 2318 Rayburn House office Building Washington, D.C. Automotive Technologies for Fuel Economy. Washington: 1991

In an effort to solve the arising problem of fuel efficiency, the House of Representatives held a hearing to “review potential for fuel economy, and the status of the auto industry’s efforts in this area” Many executives from car companies, engine companies and environmentalists attended. One statement was repeatedly stated. More than one company had the ability to make gas efficient cars, but this was not consumers’ desires. According to David L. Kulp, Manager, Fuel Economy planning and compliance department, Ford motor Company, stated that “companies produce vehicles today that obtain over 40 MPG; however, it is obvious that such vehicles do not meet the needs or provide the utility for most consumers, since these types of vehicles represent less than 3 percent of U.S. sales.”(19)

At one point, Cindy playfully twirled McCain's hair and said, "You're getting a little thin up there." McCain's face reddened, and he responded, "At least I don't plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you ( unt."
