..and the cafe across the street then sees something else unexplained that makes them glad: dollar signs!

His eyes turned into dollar signs right at 2:56.

I'll submit the lyrics below. Who is this song referring to? Bill O'Reilly? Dobbs? Rivera? Murdoch? Murdoch's sons? Maybe it is Stephen Colbert. I think this song and video are great. I guess I see more into it since I worked as a reporter for so long.

Dancing Choose-TV on the Radio

he's a WHAT? he's a WHAT?
he's a newspaper man
and he gets his best ideas
from a newspaper stand;
from his boots to his pants
to his comments and his rants
he knows that any little article will do!

though he expresses some confusion
bout his part in the plan,
and he can't understand
that he's not in command;
the decisions underwritten
by the cash in his hand
bought a sweater for
his weimariner too

now i'm no mad man,
but that's insanity
feast before famine,
and more before family
goes and shows up with
more bowls and more
cups and the riot for the
last hot meal erupts
corrupts his hard drive
through the leanest months
shells out the hard cash
for the sickest stunts;
on aftershave, on gasoline
he flips the page and turns
the scene

in my mind i'm drowning butterflies
broken dreams and alibis;
that's fine.
i've seen my palette blown
to monochrome-
hollow heart
clicks hollowtone,
it's time.

eye on authority,
thumb prints a forgery
boy, ain't it crazy what the
lights can do
for counterfeit community;
every opportunity
wasted as the space
between the flash tattoo

and the half-hearted hologram,
posed for the party
now he gloss full bleed
on a deaf dumb tree
cod liver dollar signs,
credit card autograph
down for the record
but not for freedom

angry young mannequin
american, apparently
still to the rhythm
better get to the back of me
can't stand the vision,
better tongue the anatomy
gold plated overhead,
blank transparency
in the days of old,
you were a nut
now you need three bumps
before you cut
not that i should care about,
nothing i ain't scared of, but
i guess you had
to
be
there.

in my mind i'm breeding butterflies,
broken dreams, and alibis
that's fine.
i've seen my palette
blown to monochrome
hollow heart
clicks hollowtone
in time.

i see you figured in your action pose
foam-injected axl rose,
life size
should something shake you
and you drop the news,
lord, just keep your dancing shoes
off mine

they give about $2000 to families of civilians killed by the army,right? so a house.....hmmmm, $100 ????


Hmm...let me see if I can figure this one out here...

Al Qaeda kills USA soldier = USA pays victim's family over http://www.cpms.osd.mil/icuc/attacks/Death+Benefits+Chart.htm">$200,000.00.

Al Qaeda kills USA civilian (9/11) = USA pays victim's family ~$1,650,000.00.

USA kills Iraq civilian (that was never, in any way, connected to Al Qaeda) = USA pays victim's family $2,000.00.

That's how you say "an Iraqi life means next to nothing to us" in dollar signs.

'Democracy'... 'Freedom'... 'Iraq'... 'Terrorists'

Of course, when its not a nation chock-full of oil as Iraq is. the US of A stands idly by and allows such brutal dictatorships to flourish.

Yeah.. its not about oil. Really. Moral crusade? I don't think so. Bush/Cheney would much rather rant/rave about Iran and start another major un-winnable war than strive to do some real good for the people, rather than seeing dollar signs.

don't like those gradients, but he having them means they can be edited
(didn't look at the code yet, but I guess he hosts a background file somewhere, and link it in the css?)

the logo in my mind is not very clear, but it could be a nice idea both to use the raiders (as a background maybe?) and the jennifer government logo (it really DO rapresents "commercial"). How this could be done in these few pixels, and in a non-horrible way, is far behind my comprehension

Not sure about the dollar sign but I like it. What I don't like about it is that, well, it is not, well, rapresentative of the world. I mean. Well you understand. But I'm against putting in lots of symbols. So I dunno. I'd stick with this logo, just with a background to be defined, for now.

Rand's funeral was attended by some of her prominent followers, including Alan Greenspan. A six-foot floral arrangement in the shape of a dollar sign was placed near her casket.
wowsers...

He started off well enough, making pretty challenging music that commented on pop culture and on rock music as live theater. But this song just sounds like $dollar signs$ to me... a repetitive, standard (inst-intro, verse1, chorus1, bridge into chorus2, verse2, chorus2, bridge back to chorus1, alternate-chorus, chorus1, outro) progression track with distortion on the vocals and guitar, and lyrics about being a rock star and how old people are tools (and he is not).

I guess I'm still upset that The Fragile never ushered in a golden age of heady, anti-pop rock like it was supposed to. Does this not sound like a distorted Blur track from, like, 1994?

Randi is the best!
HE's sure trying to keep it real.
I love the look on Hydrick's face when James Randi shows the check for 10,000$. You can almost see his eye turn into dollar signs.
