Sorry to hear that Rage. But I'll admit I do enjoy a bit of RATM here and there.

he has a nice voice...
i didn't even know he was jewish.

Um, pretty much every awesome person ever was Jewish.

Case in point: Dave Mustaine, the lead singer, songwriter, and lead/rhythm guitarist for one of the most successful METAL bands ever, Megadeth.

I'll bet God is Jewish, too.

serenejaguar93 OFFLINE User	OK, so the name is lame but they have some decent music. I say decent because I side with Metallica in the Megadeth/Metallica feud. I really prefer "tallica. Check out "Nothing Else Matters" to see why (it's a ballad, not in-your-face-blow-out-your-eardrums metal). 'tallica is just more musical and their songs are more powerful. They have meaning. Oh, and Rage: You've actually counted?

I must admit to not being into very heavy stuff...although I liked meallica (during their alternative rock phase: puppets, black, lightning, load, reload), I only know one megadeth song (trust). These days, tohugh, my taste is a smidge lighter - I find myself being a huge fan of 3 doors down, and some of nickelback's stuff, altohugh some of it needs to be censored. But c'mon - has everyone seen the music video for "if today was your last day?" I thought it was brilliant...

Obviously, that's not what I want my whole life to be. But day by day, we're choosin what are lives are, and will be. As always, you have an ability to learn from the things around you the lessons that hashem wants you to see.

wake up people!!

i read a story today about a guy that was 100 years old and being released from prison this week after finishing a 10 year sentence. Hes been in and out of jail his entire life for sex related offenses. the last time he was sentences the judge said, "you will die in prison." turns out hes quite spry. in fact, the reverend that ran the halfway house in which this 100 year old dude spent the past few months is horrified at the fact that this guys gonna be out in the public...the revered is convinced this guy will strike again and claims the guy actually is very healthy and can pull it off. this 100 year old guy is gonna have to register as a sex offender and he will only be the SECOND youngest person (theres a 103 yo dude out in the west somewhere)...

so, yeah, most of us here are not anywhere near as sick as this dude BUT teh lesson to be learned is that you must address this kind of stuff early and its never too late to be considered early.... because it simply will not go away...and after 100 years on this planet we would want a better life to look back on than this crazy grampa has....

One of my rabbeim would always say: even when you get old youll still have the same tayvos you just wont have the feet to get you to them. Profound and Prophetios. If thers such a word. :D

Go grandma!

When I was back in sem we went and sang and danced in an old age home during Chanuka.

Because there were to be male residents too, we asked a shaila to our

Rav, one of the gedolaei hador then and now.

We wanted to know if it was okay to sing in a group, and dance in front of them;

after all, the average age was 80 plus.

His answer: Im around that age now. Still have natural teivos.

Come back to me at 90 and we can rediscuss it if things have changed!!

A bocher once told him that he thinks hes gotten past his yh and doesnt have tayvos anymore, therefore excusing actions that he was doing. R Elya answered him; "im in my 70's blind in one eye and can barely see from the other and i still have tayvos to look at improper things". Enough said.
