The word'pound'is abbreviated 'lb.'after the constellation'Libra' because it means 'pound' in Latin, and also'scales'. The abbreviation for the British Pound Sterling comes from the same source: it is an 'L'for Libra/Lb. with a stroke through it to indicate abbreviation. Same goes for the Italian lira, which uses the same abbreviation ('lira' coming from'Libra). So British currency (before it went metric) was always quoted as "pounds/shillings/pence", abbreviated "L/s/d" (Libra/solidus/denarius).
Rage against the machine did Bulls on Parade without any instruments during the Replican National Convention after cops took over their stage and PA.

Listen to your heart
I woke up today and this song was in my head. I have never had this song in mp3, and I have no idea when the last time I ever heard it. I can't even say that I think it's a great song. But it was repeating in my head.
Roxette - Listen to your heart

Were you there?
This has always been my favorite hymnal. It's emotional, it tells a story, it's literal, and it's simple. I didn't even know Johnny Cash did a version of it. I'm in love with it now.
Were you there when they crucified my Lord
Oh were you there when they crucified my Lord
(Oooh sometimes it causes me to tremble) tremble
Were you there when they crucified my Lord
Were you there when they nailed him to the cross
Were you there when they nailed him to the cross
(Oooh sometimes it causes me to tremble) tremble
Were you there when they nailed him to the cross
(Were you there when they laid him in the tomb
Were you there when they laid him in the tomb
Oooh sometimes it causes me to tremble) tremble
Were you there when they laid him in the tomb
Well were you there when the stone was rolled away
Were you there when the stone was rolled away
(Oooh sometimes it causes me to tremble) tremble
Were you there when the stone was rolled away

This song is stuck in head and I want it out. RIGHT. NOW. I have no idea when the last time I've ever heard this song, and I don't even know all the lyrics, i just have the "SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE Señora " part repeating in my head.

An indie store in Bellevue is wanting to have some acoustic/low-key musical entertainment on friday and saturday nights this summer. I told them i'd be interested in filing their Saturday, July 7th spot with some friends. Who's in?
It's a really hip store, they specialize in vintage clothes, comics, books, furniture, records, and even artist created stuff.
Stop by, check out the local music, check out the store, bring your own beer, bring your friends.
check out their website:
www.517521.com
www.myspace.com/517521inbellevue
Let me know if you want to play and i'll make sure it happens. They want to send out flyers, so tell me soon so i can throw you on it.
