Theme? We don't need no Theme
So here it is... a random smattering:
The 10 best rock bands ever - I must admit that I don't think that I have ever heard of Sly and the Family Stone and would definitly remove them from the list.
An the musical note: There are some bands/artists that can only be listened to at certain times whether that be in the afternoon or evening. I must say though that Pete Yorn can stand at any hour. If you have never given him a chance and enjoy mellow rythm driven rock check him out. Seriously. Do it.
(aside: if I could I would try Pete's bushy hair for a day (don't worry Christie has more sense then I do and would make me cut it))
I like riddles:
"There are three things that amaze me--no, four things I do not understand:
how an eagle glides through the sky,
how a snake slithers on a rock,
how a ship navigates the ocean,
how a man loves a woman."
"There are four things on earth that are small but unusually wise:
Ants--they aren't strong,
but they store up food for the winter.
Rock badgers--they aren't powerful,
but they make their homes among the rocky cliffs.
Locusts--they have no king,
but they march like an army in ranks.
Lizards--they are easy to catch,
but they are found even in kings' palaces."
Ah wisdom, sweet wisdom:
"As the beating of cream yields butter, and a blow to the nose causes bleeding, so anger causes quarrels."

Sly and the Family Stone is a seminal FUNK band...
