I just want to inform Amateurist that I followed up that joke by typing out a half-set of new lyrics for "Half a Person" -- sixteen, indentured, and manacled / I fled the Carolinas and I / I tried to hook up with the Underground / Underground Railroad / I said "I'd like to make it to Canada / I'd like to make it to Canada / Do you think they'll have a vacancy / for some unskilled labor?" -- before deciding that that might be slightly off-topic for a thread about PBS.

Alex,

What is really funny about the way a major label conquers an indie label? Could Steven Marriott have been the genius to beat Steve Winwood? We will never know because his label could not promote in order to have an album on the order of "Back in the High Life."

If you want to laugh, pick out a topic that doesn't affect artist's lives.

Grime is a musical message performed by artistes like Dizzee Rascal from London. It is less about having a tight, tight band then being a real bear behind the microphone, carrying the crowd with you through the night.
One particular hotspot is where no tourist in London will ever take their tube: EAST LONDON. The poverty of East London is all up in the lyrics of such magicians as The Streets and Slaughter Mob.
Like the "no escape" attitude that runs through these streets, you also can't escape grime charging the pop charts of the US like the Beatles or Herman's Hermits. Lil Jon has expressed interest in being a part of this grime scene, even with so little money to be had, because there is that renewed purity that you can only hear in the sound of a true Englishman.

Last sentence only:

Man... I feel like I've gone into another dimension. All last night after eatnig dinner I had bad pain in my right side (I'm starting to wonder if I have some gallstones), bad acid reflux and was a bit trembly with tired stress. Got home, tried to hook up the work laptop to do an oncall job and NOTHING WOULD WORK, it was a fuckin' comedy of errors. First I couldnt get the lappy onto the 'net at all, til (duh) I realised I had to change the IP and netmask to work on my own lan. Then that worked, but I couldnt run the secure client thingy to connct to the work lan. THEN after ringing Dom in a panic I discovered it was due to a username being a bit wrong (heh whoops). THEN I didnt know what my workmail password was and THEN, best of all, I discovered that the latest IE helpfully blocks popups without bothreing to make it clear it has done so - meaning I wasted an hour and a half fucking with a java app database yelling at it like I was Bernard doing his taxes.
