First time I've written a review for a couple of years - then I went and gave four out of five stars to the Stranglers (sans Hugh). There were some great moments but I should have stuck to my guns and given it three - which is above average. Seven-out-of-seven seems fair for Send because EvilSponge equates this to 'essential'. I'd give the same to PF and Chair Missing. 154 I'd find trickier to give a rating out of seven, for what it's worth, because its moods are more diverse... Had it been a rating out of ten then I wouldn't have given Send ten because that, somehow, is more like saying something's perfect (highly unlikely) and I'd have probably given nine (same for PF/CM and probably 154). We'll just have to keep wondering which track Derek doesn't like...

In the current climate, fostered by our prez and his legions of doom in full bread and circuses mode, where a single sad floppy titty is pubic enemy number one, and bad words are the source of federal legislative efforts, comes this gem from the bible belt. This is the downside of democracy... DAYTON, Tenn. (March 17) - The county that was the site of the Scopes ''Monkey Trial'' over the teaching of evolution is asking lawmakers to amend state law so the county can charge homosexuals with crimes against nature. The Rhea County commissioners approved the request 8-0 Tuesday. Commissioner J.C. Fugate, who introduced the measure, also asked the county attorney to find a way to enact an ordinance banning homosexuals from living in the county. ''We need to keep them out of here,'' Fugate said Another enlightened pronouncement from a country who's MINORITY government are disappearing somewhere to the political right of Atilla the Hun. Don't feel bad, Jack, I think we know that most Americans can no more be blamed for the brain-dead moron who's in the White House, than most of us,say, in the U.K. could be blamed for that bloodless harpie Thatcher, who to the world and his wife WAS the UK in the eighties, but whom a sizeable proportion of the populace are even now queuing to go and dance on the old witch's grave even before she's cold.

Right after that, though, the band broke into a full sprint with "Apologies To Insect Life" and they maintained that intensity through most of the rest of the show. Not bad at all. >> i thought they were incredibly. it lagged a bit in the middle (the songs the bassist sang) but on the whole was excellent. the endsong, which degenerated into chaos, was good loud fun. as an added bonus fo the evening, i almost creamed Kaito with my car before the show, as they were lumbering down Stokeswood gathering local foliage for the stage... << I was also quite taken with the second opening band, Kaito, who played a set of obtusely quirky songs that reminded me of The Slits or of some Kim Gordon-penned Sonic Youth songs. >> they were great as well. at first i thought, "Ah, a band influenced by Blonde Redhead" but they showed remarkable diversity in songs whilest still rocking hard. very very good. << I bought the album, Band Red, right after their set. >> alright Jason, you're starting to freak me out, since i did that same thing... hmmm.... maybe we are, in fact, the same person, and that is why we have yet to actually meet.

Subject: The Bible Tells Me So On her radio show recently, Dr Laura Schlesingersaid that, as an observant Orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22, and cannot be condoned under any circumstance. The following response is an open letter to Dr. Laura, which was posted on the Internet. It's funny, as well as informative: >>>Dear Dr. Laura: Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. ..........I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God's Law ........I am confident you can help.

Not necessarily, I will tell, but to be honest, I was trying to smoke out other people's thoughts on which track, (if any), should get the 'golden turkey' award for the album, but thus far nobodies volunteered either their own nominations, or guesses as to which track it is that fails to clear the bar in my estimation........

Sorry Bruce, if it's one of yours, but more than any other track on the album, it points up the possible shortcomings in the postal cut'n'paste modus operandi, in that it appears to be a single looped idea, with little or no structure other than pitch-shifting it progressively. Rinse'n'repeat. To these ears, it's unworthy to sit on the same disk as great stuff like "Spent" , "99.9" & "You can't leave now".
