Four is way to narrow. I was thinking 8-12 would be about right. A good mix of teams and conferences and a reasonable number of games.

What problems? The South Eastern Conference champion is number 1. No problem.

The first giant hit from Yes was the Yes Album in Feb. 1971. It hit no. 4 on the UK charts, #40 on the Billboard 200 and certified platinum. The Yes Album was so unique and different from what was being done that it would stop people in their tracks. It's rare when a new sound comes along and even rarer still when its allowed to flourish by an industry that is traditionally known for me-too sound-a-like whoredom.

In 1966 a rock manager impressed by the young guitar genius Jimi Hendrix, helped him form his band, the Jimi Hendrix Experience and record the album Are You Experienced. The chemistry was magic. The album exploded on the UK charts and soon made inroads into the US market which finally accepted a rock band with a black front man. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vqf9FxaMIsI Because of his unique style, the combination of blues, jazz, funk and pioneering new techniques with feedback, amplifier use and innovative technology, Hendrix has been one of the most influential guitarists of all time.

Listen to her. She's getting off on it.

Listen to the girl who is the ringleader. Notice how she is emboldened to go even further when the victim shows pain. She's excited in a way that almost sexual. I suspect that she has been sexually abused and has lost the normal empathy response that most people feel. She is excited by the pain of others- very, very high on the sociopathy scale. You typically see this in prisoners with long sentences for torture/murders. This girl is headed for deep trouble.

If you are going to represent gay people, dare I suggest that you NOT act like an ass hat.

From now on when somebody does something fucked up, I want the media to say something like: Canadian heterosexual porn star cannibal on the lamb... Seriously, if he wasn't gay would we have even heard of this without the sensational headline?

Supertramp c.1978- Doug Thompson, Rick Davies, Roger Hodgson, John Helliwell and Bob Siebenberg In 1979 Supertramp, an established British arena rock band, released their sixth album. Breakfast in America became an instant hit providing three hit songs in the US and two top 10 hits in the UK. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5k3JVfxluFU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0VjNxQgxNU Well some they do and some they don't, Some you just can't tell. Some they will and some they won't, And some it's just as well...

What happens when you put together a group of classically trained and very talented musicians? You get Yes. Yes was, at its high water mark, Jon Anderson(vocals), Chris Howe(lead guitar), Chris Squire(bass), Rick Wakeman(keyboards) and Alan White(percussion). Yes circa 1972 left to right: White, Howe, Wakeman, Squire, Anderson In 1971 Yes was flying high. Their breakthrough album the Yes Album was gathering fame and awards for the band. When they released Fragile in November, they became one of the biggest acts in arena rock. Yes filled a rare niche in the rock world. Their music was tagged as progressive or art rock and compared with Emerson, Lake and Palmer. Yes simply refused to cataloged or categorized; their sound was completely unique and superbly executed by exceptionally talented musicians. Yes has enjoyed a long association with the artist Roger Dean :>>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Dean_%28artist%29

Linux is embedded in a lot of stuff. Android is the big one but you find it in other places too. Kind of under-the-hood you might say. In the cash registers that I install, they run Linux and load Java programs to communicate with the Point of Sale systems.

There is an eternal debate: who is the best guitarist ever. Jeff Beck and Jimi Hendrix get a mention. So does Jimmy Page and others. Only one has actually been deified by their fans. Eric Clapton is certainly one of the most influential guitarist of all time. He has been inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame three times: once as a Yardbird, once as a member of Cream and finally as a solo artist. His career began in the sixties and continues. My favorite album by Clapton is called Slowhand. Released in 1977, Slowhand came at a time when punk, new wave and disco sounds were beginning to dominate the airwaves. Clapton's album brought back the classic power trio sound.

Some Girls by the Rolling Stones

It's 1978. Punk bands are singing about the death of rock. Disco is a huge media creation and corporate move to take over radio. So what happens? Rocks old guard steps up and blows them the fuck away. In June of 1978 the Rolling Stones released what many people think is their best single album: Some Girls. Even for a band that had been around forever and done everything, it was a tour de force. The original album contained 10 tracks: all of them were hits. Miss You When the Whip Comes Down Just My Imagination Some Girls Lies Far Away Eyes Respectable Before they make me run Beast of Burden Shattered If you've ever listened to a classic rock station, chances are you've heard a few of these. Is it the best ever Rolling Stones album? I don't know. They have a powerful body of work. It is certainly one of the best albums of all time and its songs will haunt classic rock formats for years to come. This album was re-released in November 2011. It now digitally re-mastered, all singing, all dancing too much sugar for a dime horse shit. It's worth having. Just remember: the original album had 10 songs. They were the songs that made an impact and mattered.

What is the definition of too much sex in a story on GA?
JamesSavik replied to Pete Bruno's topic in Writer's Circle
Read some of the cum-splattered epics from Nifty. Then read stuff here and at Awesomedude. The difference is at Nifty, sex is the story. AT GA and Awesomedude, sex is a part of the story. -
There is music that moves you. Then there is music that is fun. the Cars are, from the left: Benjamin Orr, Ric Ocasek, Elliot Easton, David Robinson and Greg Hawks. The Cars were fun packaged in a jam-tastic new age sound that tore up the charts with their debut album in 1978. You weren't looking for the meaning of life listening to the Cars. You were probably driving around, smoking weed and looking to get laid. That's what their songs were about. It wasn't just their chart-toppers either. Their first two albums had surprising depth and staying power. All Mixed Up is as haunting as Just What I needed and You're All I've Got Tonight are classic power anthems. When the Cars followed up their debut album a year later with Candy-O, they made a statement. Once again the Cars had released an infectious album that you could put on and just let it play. There were no bad songs. Just play it loud. It's music to drive dangerously fast by. Some might argue that the Cars peaked with Candy-O. The direction that the band went with their next album Panorama went to the new wave sound "whole-hog". Their fans still enjoyed a string of hits. They never caught that magic again. They did produce two albums that belong in any body's collection. Just remember to play it loud. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhfoyJt4TVE Can I touch you, are you out of touch I guess I never noticed that much Geranium lover, I'm live on your wire Oo come and take me whoever you are She's a lot like you The dangerous type She's a lot like you Come on and hold me tight Oo inside angel, always upset Keeps on forgettin' that we ever met Can I bring you out in the light My curiosity's got me tonight She's a lot like you The dangerous type Oo she's a lot like you Come on and hold me tight

Do You Get Preferential Treatment from LGBT Community?

young & cute is going to get more attention than old & non-cute add hawt and its pretty much a given -
Let us be lovers; we'll marry our fortunes together I've got some real estate in my bag So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner's pies And we walked off, walked off, walked off to look for America "Kathy," I said, as we boarded the greyhound in Pittsburgh "Michigan seems like a dream to me now Took me four days to from Saginaw They've all gone to look for America All gone to look for America." Laughing on the bus, playing games with faces She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy I said, "be careful, his bow-tie is really a camera." "Kathy, I'm lost," I said Though I knew she was sleeping Well, I'm empty, and aching, and I don't know why I'm Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike And they've all gone to look for America All gone to look for America "Kathy, I'm lost," I said Although I knew she was sleeping Well, I'm empty, and aching, and I don't know why I'm Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike And they've all gone to look for America All gone to look for America All gone to look for America the Diner the diner was nothing new I've seen its type in a thousand dusty places with all the same dusty worn out faces variations on a theme of a broken worn out dream I ordered from a super-model waitress Who was really going places as soon as she was done with cosmotology school and ber boyfriend gets out of the jail and she kicks the meth. I sat behind the village elite holding forth On issues great and small. The teacher of science in middle school had a far away look like a man on a hook with a fat mouthy wife and a lousey life. The sheriff came in to his free chicken dinner to see old lady Wilson and wonder if ever she would think that it wasn't his stomach that kept him coming back. And the preacher in this one horse town, arrived in his $500 suit and cadilliac a parasitic creature that comes from the dust that came with the rust when the towns falling down but the one building that is his shrine built on poor mens tithe. Alls well in Dustville. It hasn't changed a bit. Every time I travel there I die a little Its where I'm from. Its where I come. To see that nothing really changes. Times just rearranges. Different faces, different places.
