    Something I tripped on...

    I don't know that you could really measure that, but maybe. I suppose some scientists could measure the amount of nitrogen being released into the air from an average sized lawn and perhaps estimate how much gets into the atmosphere versus simple dissipating, if it does either at all. Calculate...

    Something I tripped on...

    Ever heard of William Randolph Hearst? Yeah and I was also told it takes more food (Corn) to feed cattle to feed people than it would take to simply grow corn to feed x amount of people. It also takes several more quarts of oil for the machines to run to feed the cattle. Watch Food Inc...

    Pretty Badass

    Yeah you know I though that " Thor " was pretty badass too. Fuckin awesome actually. No one else seems to have seen it, heard of it, or really cares though. Thanks Steve.

It's a dangerous thing to have only point of view and that's what bothers me. That and the fact that usually the people...

    Whoa, I feel that's way out of line and disrespectful. Burton was great, and I could argue this all day. There were biographies written of him surpassing his teachers and spending hours learning Bach and Stanley Clarke. He may not have expressed the styles of playing you describe but I am very...

    This is bullshit!

    I feel those articles are pretty shallow and pointless. Every bass player has something different to offer. A good groove is a good groove, even if it lacks technical dexterity. Pete Wentz is the best bassist in some kid's mind, but maybe that's what makes him happy the same way you feel when...

    Learning how to think

    i guess i wasnt too clear but it really isnt that hard of a question to understand if you take another look at it. no one here has to be an intellectual jerkoff. simply put, do you have more control over your thoughts, feelings, actions, etc. or does whatever force that lay deep within the mind...
