'Heart and soul'? Look, DLR is an incredible storyteller but Eddie's guitar playing is what put VH on the map. How many people can't instantly recognize the opening riff of "Ain't Talkin' Bout Love", "You Really Got Me", or "Panama"? And "Eruption" is probably the most recognizable guitar solo EVER!
It is growing on my quickly. There are a couple of tunes I don't care for but others really take me back to the late 70's and early 80's. It's worth the $9.49 I paid for it.
There isn't a guitarist in rock music who can hang with Vai. He thinks so differently. And Vai didn't kill ANY bands. He rescued a lot of them. Just because you don't understand Vai's music doesn't mean it isn't 'relatable'.
I find that analysis rather biased. What else would Sebastian Bach, a lead singer, say? There are egos throughout music regardless of position in the band. And yes, I am a guitarist.
I rarely watch TV. However, this season I am watching two shows. POI and Last Man Standing. I like to watch shows that don't mock men and that celebrate doing what is right. No shoving homosexuality in my face and making it appear as though 50% of the population is gay. No "Look at the stupid white guy!" crap.
I loved the reference to The Count Of Monte Cristo in which Jim Caviezel played the Count. Just watched that movie again last night. I've seen it about five times and I love it.
I agree with you about the ending of Episode 4. If you have the opportunity to kill someone to save the lives of others, do you have a right, or an obligation to do so? You can't really answer that question unless you have been in that position.

Love "Born Yesterday."
The Man Who Came To Dinner is one of my favorite movies. Montey Woolley is fantastic, as is Bette Davis and Ann Sheridan. Kings Row is another favorite of mine. Probably my favorite role Ronald Reagan ever played.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. You have put into words my feelings about The Incredibles. This has been my favorite Pixar movie since it was released. You also used my favorite line from the movie: "And when everyone's super, no one will be." What a great image of what mediocrity does to a society of free people. If you are more successful than me, congratulations. If I am more successful than you, get over it. Work harder.
Tell Joe Johnston I'll be keeping my $40 for tickets. His liberal BS is gonna cost him. This makes me want to vomit.
This is simply a matter of basic economics. Sam Walton saw a need and he filled that need. Don't blame Wal-Mart for the economic woes of American business. One person touched on part of the problem and that is Americans wanting to pay as little for something as possible. A second problem is American unions. If it costs an American company $10 to produce a product and a Chinese company can produce it for $4 (the other $6 being due to wages and benefits), who is more competitive? We had better wake up here in America or we are all going to be looking for jobs.
Second, I take issue with the stab at the Wal-Mart CEO's salary. This is a class warfare tactic used by the liberal left. He runs the largest retailer on the planet. His decisions affect millions of people. He works more hours than any hourly employee. He lives, breathes, and eats Wal-Mart. If he wasn't worth it, Wal-Mart would not be paying him that much.
