They were Gods!!

I can't say Led Zeppelin was the greatest Rock band ever, because to do so would imply that there was some other band worthy of comparison. Led Zeppelin is 1st on a list of one. When one speaks of great rock bands, and there are many great rock bands, it should always be assumed that that individual is speaking of great rock bands not named Led Zeppelin.

Anyway, here for your pleasure is a live track off of Zeppelin's finest album. Recorded in 1975 when they were at the apex of their greatness.

We should all be glad we weren't at this show, because it would have ruined every other show for the rest of your life.

All Lawyers should be shot! (except my wife)

Sorry, I have no link on this. The source is the St. Louis Daily Record, October 8, 2008.


The story goes like this: At some time, Lambert airport (St. Louis) officials decided it would be a good idea to install defibrillators throughout the airport. There was no law forcing them to do it. They did it because it might save someones life and there is a general consensus in our culture that lives are worth saving.

On May 27, 2005, a fellow name Ted Satos suffered a heart attack while at the airport.

Quoting from the article

He was found by a maintenance worker, an employee of the city, who notified Southwest Airlines employees to call 911. A nearby traveler, a nurse, assisted the employee in CPR until paramedics were able to arrive about 10 minutes later, said Satos' daughter's attorney, Matthew Casey, of Casey and Devoti.
The employees failed to use any of the (defibrillators) in the terminal to treat Satos'

Well, in a society with as many attorneys as ours, no good deed goes unpunished. A wrongful death lawsuit was filed. The claim is that although the airport was not compelled to put in the defibrillators, once they did they became responsible for ensuring that all employees knew how, and when to use them.

What a crock!! The airport workers didn't cause Mr. Satos' heart attack and they did the best they could to help him, but sometimes people die and nobody is at fault.

So, let's go through some scenarios. No defibrillators, no lawsuit. Defibrillator used, man dies anyway...probably a lawsuit based on having a maintenance worker operating a medical device.

The net result will be that fewer airports, restaurants, museums etc. will provide defibrillators and people will die who otherwise could have been saved. Why would they risk the lawsuits, they don't have to put these things in.

When that blood is spilled I say it is on the hands of Matthew Casey.

I wish no harm to anyone, but perhaps Mr. Casey should imagine himself in the grips of cardiac arrest knowing that if it weren't for him and scum sucking lawyers like himself, a life saving defibrillator may have been just a few feet away.

I agree with Hollywood! Don't vote!

Don't watch more than a minute of this video. It is as predictable as all the other garbage put out by Hollywood these days.

It did get me thinking though, and I have concluded that I don't want you to vote. In fact, I am openly pleading calling on a vast swath of our citizenry to just stay home. It is your patriotic duty. (And yes, I did say "duty.")

I have come to believe that most people are ignorant of history, civics, politics and government. In other words, they are as knowledgeable about governance as I am about the latest Hollywood tramp that looks like she could use a Big Mac and week in the Biddle.

So please, do us all a favor and don't vote if:

1. You can't name at least three justices of the Supreme court and identify them as liberal or conservative.

2. You get a good portion of your political news off of PerezHilton.com and think Obama's new grey suit is "fagalicious!"

3. You watch Deal or no Deal. For the love of God that is the most mindless show in the history of television! The contestants don't even have to be smarter than a third grader! Turn the damn channel or you will end up as stupid as Howie Mandel before you know it!!

4. You believe Rosie O'Donnell to be an expert on steel forging, or anything other than cheesie poofs and unsuccessful mental health treatments.

I could go on, but I'm afraid if I list too many more, I might have to singlehandedly choose the next president. I would choose my wife. She is one scary gal!! I don't think even Ahmadinejad is crazy enough to cross her.

Speaking of crazy, He and Rosie would make a nice couple. They would have to live in America though because we all know there are none of the homersexuals in Iran.

Actually, I have to take that back. As despicable as he is, a life with Rosie is a fate I can wish on no man.

Besides, judging from the jacket he wears, isn't being the last member bad enough?
