OK I can't resist.
Over here in the UK, I am now imagining the guy who made this quote, riding
around in huge pickup, with shotgun rack, swilling cold beer that tastes
like dishwasher, looking for somebody to lynch.
Now he, I would assume does none of these things, but from a European
perception the image is there nonetheless.
Now this is obviously a personal opinion and I fully expect to get flamed,
but it appears to us here in Europe that most Americans (including the
"liberals") are slightly to the right of Attila the Hun. Certainly there is
a view that you can teach us nothing tolerance or integration in your
society.
Now you could say I am biased, which I probably am, but maybe what is need
is the rest of the world to invade the US and rescue it from George Bush,
before he upsets anymore people.
There you go, rant over, and absolutely nothing to do with Finale.

I'd be willing to bet that a generation or two ago, that most Brits were damned glad America was ready to do battle and do some rescuing. You do remember WW II? Yeah, yeah, I know, what have we done for you lately.

Para m�, la m�sica es la respiraci�n de la vida y del dios. Per me, la musica � l'alito di vita e del dio. Pour moi, la musique est le souffle de la vie et de Dieu. F�r mich ist Musik der Atem des Lebens und des Gottes.
