Why is this a big deal?



Yes, she is crying... a little bit. It's not like she's sobbing and had to leave the room because she couldn't pull her shit together. But it was fake and she did it to get votes, which worked because she won New Hampshire. But it's a sign of weakness and shows a woman is too weak to run the country.

I don't think it was fake. I think she's very tired and let out the secret that's she a real person. She wants to be President and Obama may stop her from it. Why is it okay to not be able to speak publicly without tripping over every other word, but horrible to get a little chocked up. Stupidity is better than emotion?

Emmy Noms!

I have a strange love of the Emmys, it's my favourite of all award shows... well maybe tied with the Globes.

I can't fucking believe this. Why would you trade a goalie that had the best January in team history for a goalie who has been sucking ass all season, oh and HAS A BROKEN FOOT?!?!?!

I'm so mad/upset/shocked I can't form a coherent paragraph.

The Devil Wears Prada

http://latinoreview.com/filmpreview.php?id=29

The Devil Wears Prada comes out June 30th! I'm so worried about this movie. I've tried to like Anne Hathaway, but I can't, she drives me nuts and I'm afraid she's going to ruin this movie for me.

At least Meryl Streep is Miranda, and she can do no wrong. And I've had a crush on Simon Baker since The Guardian. And I've read the book 6 times, so hopefully I can block out Anne Hathaway when I'm watching the movie, she's only the main character, it won't be that hard.

Your hair, it's everywhere. Screaming infidelities and taking its wear.

What is worse... some little twit listening to Good Charlotte and calling themselves punk, or someone listening to a Dashboard song (extra point for Screaming Infidelities) over and over and calling themselves emo?

Do any of these kids walking around in "Weezer" glasses and striped shirts know Rites of Spring? Hell, do they even know Rivers name or one song off of Pinkerton, or is he just the Beverly Hills guy?

I think the main issue I have with emo is what the fuck music isn't emotional? And why does the world obsession with placing a label on everything and putting everyone in a box have to ruin perfectly good things? There were people wearing the "emo outfit" and listeningh to the bigger emo bands for years before it bacame a trend, and now it just seems lame.

Nickleback sucks, Nickle back sucks, no Nickleback doesn't suck!

The subject of this entry is my favourite Chad quote EVER.

It brings me to the question how is Nickleback popular? Their albums sell off the shelves and they play to sell out crowds, yet have you ever met a Nickleback fan? I haven't. Most people feel the same way I do... they are horrible and get ill listening to them.

There are many things I would rather put my ears through than listening to the wondrous lyrics of Chad and the gang. The people who brought us the never answered question of what is on Joey's head. Britney Spears... well no. Good Charlotte... no again. But is that what musicians aspire to? Not sucking as hard as Joel and Benji (no homoerotic incest implied)? Or do they want fans that are too ashamed to admit they like them?

I read something about all the Nickleback haters just being because Nickleback are Canadian and popular in the States and around the world when there are much better bands to represent out fine country. While if that isn't a double handed compliment I don't know what is. You try to back the band yet admit there are better bands in Canada?

Sure, Chad is Canadian, but is he human or is he a talking lion like in the Care Bears? If not, why does he roar in every song?

I have come to terms with them being popular despite any talent or originality, but I would just like it explained to me. If they are so great and you will pay for their cds or get raped by ticketmaster to see them live why won't you admit it?

O Canada! Our home and native land!

Canada finished with 24 medal at the Olympics, if you go by total medals won that puts them in third place, not too shabby. I just hope they aren't setting themselves up top fall on their faces in 2010 and not "own the podium".

http://www.olympic.ca/EN/organization/news/2005/files/otp_final.pdf

The closing ceremonies made no sense to me. First off... Ricky Martin shaking his bon bon?? What was up with that? It made no sense to me, seeing as Ricky Martin isn't from Italy but had the longest set. Umm... why?

Am I a horrible person because I don't think kids are cute? Sure when babies are asleep and not making noise they can be kinda cute, but the second they wake up and start screaming, not so cute.

I'm sorry, but when I'm in a waiting room and a kid is running around singing at the top of their lungs I find them to be annoying. I don't care if you're encouraging your kid to be the next Bono, tell them to shut up in a waiting room. What if I was in the waiting room waiting on test results to tell me if I was dying... do you think I want to be listening to your kid?

Why are kids always sticky? Even if there is no candy anywhere near them they get sticky.

If I am sitting reading my book minding my own business why am I the rude one if I just smile at the little person talking to me and not talk back? Half the time I have no idea how to answer because I have no idea what the kid said. And really this isn't just little kids, do I have a sign somewhere on me that says "Hello, I give a shit about your life, please come talk to me I don't really want to be reading this book I'd much rather make small talk with a stranger."? If I do please tell me where it is so I can take it off.

I can't count how many times I'll be sitting enjoying my Starbucks and a book or writing something as I wait for the bus and random people just come and sit down next to me and start talking to me. (Of course they are waiting for the bus too, they didn't just come to talk to me). Once I was waiting for the bus in Toronto to come back to Niagara Falls, I was standing in line reading a book and listening to my cd player, there were about 30 people in line and this lady came up to me and asked me what bus I was waiting for. WHY? There were at least 30 other people you could have asked, plus the driver who would know for sure where the bus was going, why did you pick me? She was black, and I think she thought I was black so that might have had something to do with it, but that doesn't really make sense.

I think it's because I look so innocent. I don't look like I'll freak out or be rude of you ask me a question. And I'm not, I answer their questions or go along with the pointless small talk. So maybe this answers my question of why strangers talk to me, because I answer them.

I'm sick. I had being sick. I blame global warming, if it wasn't -13 one day then +7 the next I wouldn't be sick. And of course I made plans to go to the martini bar on Saturday, I better feel better by then, the last time I went there was for my birthday and I was so sick I switched to water after one drink. Luckily I caught my second wind.

I was reading the article on ifmagazine.com and Bruce Willis was basing Oprah and supporting James Frey. (http://ifmagazine.com/new.asp?article=2663)

'Hey, Oprah. You had President Clinton on your show and if this prick didn't lie about a couple of things I'm going to set myself on fire right now.' James Frey is a writer, okay? He can write whatever he wants.

Apples and oranges. You could make an endless list of people who have lied, but it's not the same thing, James Frey used Oprah to make money, of course she is going to be angry. Everyone knows that being named as an Oprah book club selection will make your book a best seller. Yes James Frey can write whatever he wants, but if it's a work of fiction it should be sold as a work of fiction not a memoir. It's a well wriiten book, and I'm sure if it was marketed as a work of fiction Oprah still may have picked it, it would be a best seller and everyone would be happy.

Bush in shot with Abramoff... Cheney just shoots a guy

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11310507/

“We now know that Mr. Abramoff attended this meeting,” Abney said Sunday. “The president has taken tens of thousands of pictures. This does not mean he has a personal relationship with each individual that is in those pictures.”

I will admit that the tiny head in the picture doesn't really prove anything except GWB was in the same room as Abramoff at one point, the quote from the White House makes me laugh. I seem to remember the footage of Bill Clinton hugging Monica Lewinsky and the White House pointing out there was footage of Clinton hugging many people.

And while the photo doesn't really prove Bush knew Abramoff, Abramoff himself saying he met Bush at least a dozen times is a step down the right path. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11261495/

Orthodox Jews cannot travel on Saturdays?? That must be a huge hassle.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11312757/

Whittington was bleeding after he was shot and Cheney was very apologetic. After you shoot someone the least you can be is very apologetic.

I know this was an accident and Cheney isn't the first person to do this... but isn't that the problem? When there are guns around people are going to get hurt. I have never been hunting and unless I'm trapped in the middle of nowhere and can't go buy food I'll never go, but honestly how much fun is it to shoot a bird? And what's the point of the bright orange outfits hunters wear, I thought it was so they didn't shoot other hunters. The guy was 30 feet away, how could you not see him?

Dear Douchebag,

You didn't "just seen" his car drive by.

You didn't "do good."

The word hello is pronounced just as it is spelled, hell-o, not hel-ah.

When you get into a fist fight because some bumped into you and end up falling and hitting you head, you should be ashamed, not showing off your stitches.

I'm so sorry that I confuse you when I use "big words" like tainted.

Since you're too cool to get a job, and want to free load off my sister you could at least go visit her in the hospital more than once every two weeks.

It's 2006, it is not okay to loose your temper and punch a wall because a male who was friends with my sister years before she even met you visits her in the hospital. Especially when you're not there because you're getting drunk with her money and going to the rippers.

We have a washing machine, you can now do laundry instead of just spraying half a bottle of Axe on your clothes and leaving your scent everywhere you go.

It isn't funny that you got angry at a teacher and dropped out of high school, it's very sad.

I hate you,
Amy

doot doot doot

I'm watching the Grammys. I watch the Grammys ever year, and ever year I make fun of what a joke they are. Of course most award shows are farces, but it's hard to take a show that gave best new artist to Robert Goulet over Bob Dylan seriously. Of course the AA gave Julia Roberts an Oscar over Ellen Burstyn... did they not see Requiem for a Dream???

Madonna is my hero. She's the coolest bitch ever, and is hotter at 47 than most people under 30 (myself included)


I wish Coldplay hadn't released Yellow as their first single so I won't have had to waste so much time hating them... because they are brillant. Chris Martin's fro is so cute, so is the fact he can't dance but still does.

Kanye West is wearing black leather gloves with his white suit... tribute to Mj or is he going to kill someone later? Oh can't win an award without giving a shout out to God. Kanye West went on tour with U2? When??

Gavin Rossdale is wearing a really stupid white scarf.

Is it wrong that I know the words to Kelly Clarkson songs? I think it's fine. American/Canadian Idol is my weakness.

Have I ever mentioned I want to have sex with Billie Joe Armstrong? Just to be safe... I want to have sex with Billie Joe. Gwen looks like a knocked up cavewoman. U2 just won... I would also bang Bono in a heart beat. Um... what the fuck is Bono saying? How can a man who is saving the world be such an awkward public speaker? Maybe he's drunk.

EEEEEE Paul McCartney... he's so dreamy! Darn he's singing a new song. I was kinda hoping for Eleanor Rigby... why would he sing that song? I don't know, but I like it more than this song. Oooo he's singing two songs... Eleanor Rigby? (He should never say Rock a bit again, it's awkward) OMG Helter Skelter... that's even cooler. Paul's cheeks look like that of a 4 year old. I think his drummer is also his body guard... he's huge.

I don't like the Black Eyed Peas. The restaurant in Orlando Flordia is also horrible. Fergie has Jessica Simpson lips. Everyone is BEP's man/hommie/ninja except Stevie Wonder. I'm sure Mr Wonder is proud. John Legend is cute.

Mariah Carey has an amazing voice. She clearly loves her breasts. And I saw Glitter and didn't think it was that bad... there I said it. What is she doing with her hand? I love that she always has a butterfly somewear on her. It's nice to see she's wearing clothes. The hand is going crazy again. Ooo here comes the choir. Even though I don't really listen to her music, I'm glad she made a comeback, she prefected diva far too well to go down with a case of the crazy. She looks very proud of that standing O, I guess that makes up for not opening the show.

Aw, Michael Buble.. let's all say his name aloud. Boobalay.. so much fun.

Lady's love Cool James... When the heel is Edison coming out? Morgan Freeman, KEVIN SPACEY, LL Cool J and Justin Timberlake.. I want to see that.

Didn't this Jay-Z/Linkon Park song come out 3 years ago? Sure feels like it. Jay Z is wearing a John Lennon shirt. Um, there was just a huge Ronald Regan head above them... why? Ew they're singing Yesterday OMG now Paul McCartney is too!! Maybe later he'll pop up and sing Eleanor Rigby.

Sometimes You Can't Make it On Your Own! I listened to this song over and over and over when I got HTDAAB, and now it won a Grammy... I'm sure I had nothing to do with that. Bono is wearing a cowboy hat... I'm shocked. He doesn't seem as drunk as he did before, he's being touching about his dead dad. Although his hand was in his back pocket the whole time and it looked like he was touching his butt.

hands in my pockets, hands in my pockets, hands in my pockets, hands in pockets... I hate this commerical.

It's the big bad Bessy with the M_I_L_K... I like that commercial.

Xtina is a dirrty whore, but she has a great voice and I love her. Plus, she's married now, so she's wear an entire dress, she's not as skanky as she used to be, and still 200% better than Brit.

Best new artist...Fall Out Boy? Fall Out Boy? Fall Out Boy? No... John Legend. Boo-urns. I think he's making people up to thank.

OOOO the In Memourium... that's always my favourite part of awards shows... yep I'm a sick fuck.

Bono is wearing his cowboy hat while he sits in the crowd.. i feel bad for Sting sitting behind him.

Yay! U2 won again. Okay, Bono is drunk.. he just thanked Paul McCartney for discovering America. I think Kanye is pissed he lost.

This music cares guy looks like Fred Penner. Yay! Another All Star Tribute. I hope it's not as awkward as Across the Universe was last year. No, this is kinda nice. OH! Midnight Hour.... man I LOVE this song.

I wonder what Edge's head looks like under his hat.

This wasn't as boring as it could have been. Mind you I walked Foxy, talked to my sister on the phone, went pee a few times, and had an uber boring conversation with my mom.

watching in slow motion, as you turn away and say, take my breath away

Tom Cruise's melt down on Oprah will be re-played this Thursday. I can't wait.

I think I should point out, I have an unhealthy and stupid hatred of Tom Cruise.** I used to be a fan. Top Gun, Risky Business, Jerry McGuire... you can't go wrong. But than I saw Vanilla Sky. Vanilla Sky is the worst movie I have ever seen. Now I have seen tonnes of really crappy movies, however, I didn't think they would be that good going in. VS on the other hand, I had high hopes, Tom Cruise and Cameron Crowe seemed like a great team, but I left the movie MAD at them. They made me waste 2 hours of my life on a movie that was impossible to understand until the last 15 minutes. Okay, I really need to get over this, VS came out like 4 years ago.

Plus, there was the whole Nicole Kidman thing. I adore Nicole and I can't stand Penelope Cruz, and I can't wrap my head around why someone would dump someone as beautiful as Nicole Kidman for someone as... well for Ms Cruz.

I was finally starting to like Tom Cruise again, and than the whole TomKat thing started. Like, did they not learn anything from Bennifer? All this over expose will make people hate you.

Plus, is it me or has Tom Cruise lost his mind? Maybe it's because he's in a cult. Now I'm not religious, but I feel people should believe what they want to, but Scientology is not a religion, it's a cult. Read up on it, it's scary.

And the whole comments on therapy were completely ignorant. I too am worried with how children are just slapped with the hyper label and given drugs like candy. ADD and ADHD are serious problems, and drugs are needed to help these people focus. But I worry that a lot of children are misdiagnosed and their natural creativity is being repressed. But this have nothing to do with a depressed person going to see a therapist. You wouldn't say I have cancer, but I'm going to give all my money to this religion and I'll get better. The way so many people view mental health scares me. But maybe that's just because my mom's a psych nurse.

** There are hundreds of more serious issues that I worry about in life than Tom Cruise.

With such confusion don't it make you wanna scream, your bash abusin' victimize within the scheme

So I'm sitting at work the other day,Monday I guess, and my purse starts buzzing, I get my cell phone and my sister had texted me saying "MJ is innocent!!!!" I was so happy. So I tell everyone in the office, we get into the same conversation we've been having for months about MJ"s mental health.

Not more than two minutes later the phone rings and it's freakn Vanessa calling to tell us about the verdict. LOL. The crazy thing was she was calling to make sure I knew. Huh? Am I known as a Michael Jackson lover or something? Cause that's kinda scary. Of course it could just be because I'm a media whore. Yeah, it's probably that.

So anywoo, I'm glad that Michael Jackson was found not guilty. Say what you will about the guy, but I really don't think he's a child molester. I'm going to take a moment and pretend I'm Dr Phil, but without the accent, and weird Texas sayings.

The weird obsession with Peter Pan, never growing up and all that crap, Michael Jackson has the mind set of a 14 year old boy. He never had a childhood when he was an actual child, he was to busy making money for his father, and helping his brothers get laid by groupies. When he's hanging out with these kids, it's because he can relate to them. He thinks like them.

And of course you have to discuss the nose. When he was little he was told over and over that his nose was so wide and big. So in his mind now it will never be small enough. When he looks in the mirror, it's like someone with anorexia who looks in the mirror and thinks they look fat. It's so sad that he found a doctor who would over look an obvious obsession with plastic surgery just to make money.

My guess is that Michael Jackson will move to Germany or something like that. People in Europe still adore him. And I'm sure he wants to get aware from Tom Sneddon or whatever his name is. I really hope the whole Vegas show is just a rumour, because IMO that would just make him more of a joke.

You say goodbye, I say hello

This is getting out of hand. It seems I am just not meant to go to a concert of someone who was big before my birth. First I couldn't get Stevie Nicks tickets, and than on Friday Paul McCartney tickets sold out before I could get them. I totally should have just stayed at home and tried online. I wasn't expecting so many people to be there. It was the random draw deal and the people who were at the front of the line took forever deciding what they wanted, and the dude at ticketmaster was waiting for all the credit cards to go through and people to get their change before moving on to the next person. Anyway the concert sold out before I could get tickets. Well that's not true, I couldn't get three tickets, but I could have gotten 2 floor seats, but the were $300 each and I didn't have enough money on my credit card for them.

I'm just hoping Stevie Nicks comes back. I really really want to go see her.

Work was so dead today. But I had my coffee so I was good to go. And I was working with chatty gals so it was all good.

I got my income tax on Friday. I got $975. I should pay off the balance of my credit card. However, I will probably spend that on shoes. Ha. I need new flip flops and heels. It's finally spring weather, and I have offically retired socks for the next few months.

Nip/Tuck season 3 doesn't start until Sept. 6th. That is so far away!! The wait is killing me the season finale of S2 was mid October, that's 11 months without new episodes! Ah, Tv how I adore thee. Season 3 of the Gilmore Girls came out on the third and I still haven't gotten it. I'm so proud of myself.

1 month till my birthday!! Woohoo

I know I could have loved you, but you would not let me...

Okay, I get the hint. My The Dance dvd is as close to seeing Stevie Nicks in concert as I'm going to get. Clearly, someone something in the universe does not want we to see her live and in person.

So this morning, I wake up early to get Stevie Nicks/Don Henley tickets. Well first off I thought they went on sale at 10am, since that's the norm for ticket sales. Well, no they went on sale at 12pm, so I could have slept in. Of course I could have slept all freakn' day because the show was cancelled!!! Fuckaduck. I mean I'm not asking much, just want to hear a few of my all time favourite songs preformed live. I'll even take seats in the very back row. I just want to go!!!!!! The reason for the cancellation was "scheduling conflict" so I'm hoping/begging/hell I'll even pray that they reschedule and I can go.



I've suddenly become obsessed with Bono. I'm not really sure where this came from. I've never been a huge U2 fan, basically just the singles. But I can't get enough lately.


I've been watching it for years, but Law and Order:SVU has joined the Gilmore Girls in the un-healthy obsession realm. I'm not really sure what it says about me that I'm obsessed with a show about sex crimes. But I can't get enough. I'm going to buy the first and maybe fifth season dvd on Monday. I don't understand why they skipped 2, 3, and 4 but whatever.

And Mariska Hargity is my new non-sexual crush. I love her. I want to be her best friend. She has the charity called the Joyful Heart Foundation, which sounds really cool about dolphin therapy for victims of sexual assaults. The foundation is selling a really funky necklace, but it's $100usd which is a little hefty since I'm broke right now, and I really need to stop putting things on my credit card. (Except Stevie Nicks tickets of course)

Okay, so this is far from heavy news, or even close to important. But it makes me laugh. Especially: MacKinnon was responsible for including My Sharona, the thumping 1979 hit by new-wave rockers the Knack. I like that there has to be someone to take responsibility for him listening to My Sharona, like of all things George Bush has done, liking a Knack song is what people would frown at.

Also: The songs on U.S. President George W. Bush's iPod have been revealed, and two Canadian tunes are among them. made me laugh. For those of you who don't often read Canadian media, no matter how irrelevalant it is to the story if there is some sort of Canadian connection, they'll throw it in.

http://www.cbc.ca/story/canada/national/2005/04/12/homolka050412.html

Karla Homolka will not be charged with killing her sister when she is released from prison this summer, Ontario's attorney general said Tuesday.
Well, why the fuck not? Everyone knows she drugged Tammy, and Homolka doesn't even deny it. Why not charge her and keep the douchebag in jail longer???

It'll be every interesting when she gets out of jail. My money is on her getting whacked before the end of August.

For those of you not up to date with Homolka. She hooked up with Paul Bernardo, but there was a problem he liked virgins and she wasn't one. So he raped young girls, and Karla gave him her sister as a present. Using drugs she stole from work Karla drugged her sister and let her husband rape her. But because they are dumb fucks and didn't know what they were doing, Tammy threw up and choked to death on her vomit. Bernardo raped countless young girls and murdered Kristen French and Leslie Mahaffy.

When they were finally caught, Homolka played the victim card and said she was scared of Bernardo and her forced her into helping him blah blah blah. IMO she's more twisted than he is. But because she played the victim card she only got 12 years because she made deals and testified against Bernardo. Watch an episode of Law and Order if you don't know how it works.

There is a movie coming out in the summer called Deadly. It's a movie about Karla and Paul the Barbie Killers or something stupid like that. Laura Pipron (Donna from That's 70 Show will be Karla) This movie is causing quite the debacle her in Ontario, and all of Canada really.

I don't really understand the huge problem with the movie. I can almost 100% guarantee I won't see this movie. I was 10-12ish when this entire thing was going on, and I lived in the same area. I lived what happened, I don't need to go see a movie about it. To this day Camero's scare the crap out of me if they are driving real slow. But at the same time I don't see how this is any different from any other movie based on real life where people have died. They were all movies making money off of real people's grief. That's why I haven't signed any of the petitions that are in my mail box every day.

On a lighter note, you can now get Smarties with peanuts in them... that's awesome.

We aren't fools to fall in love, but let "coupledom" die... ban marriage ban marriage

People are morons, and Stephen Harper is one of the ring leaders. There was a protest on Saturday of people against same sex marriage in Canada. About 15 000 gathered together in a convention of people who think like it's 1940.

"I am committed, when I am elected prime minister – at the next election, whenever that may be – to bring in legislation that will define marriage as the union of one man and one woman," Harper said.

Laws change people, it's what keeps the world moving forward. It was once against the law for a white woman and a black man (and vice versa of course), but people realized how stupid that law was and changed it. It's time to realize how stupid it is to keep two people of the same sex who are in love from marrying one another, and getting the same benefits and "perks" a married man and woman can have.

As hard as I try, I can not understand why this is such an issue for people. There have been gay men and women for hundreds of years, and there will continue to be gay men and women for the rest of time. If they can marry or not will not effect this.

The sanctity of marriage. What the fuck is that? That comes up in every debate I've heard. A gay marriage takes away the sanctity of a straight marriage. Okay, so if you're so concerned with this, make it against the law for pop stars to get married for 45 hours, and than a few months later marry someone else, at the same time their greatest hits cd comes out. Or pass a law from J-Lo ever getting married again if (when) she divorces Marc Anthony and wants to try marriage again. Straight people get married for money, for publicity, for something to do on a Friday night when they are drunk and in Vegas, this is legal, but has nothing to do with the fucking sanctity of marriage. Please try again...

Some carried signs with the image of the late Roman Catholic leader Pope John Paul II, while others carried signs with slogans such as "God defined marriage, the government defies God."

You know there is a reason there is a separate of church and state. And okay, your church is against same sex marriage, don't let two men get married in your church, the law says nothing about that. Let them go to a Justice of the Peace or City Hall. Or hey, I know let's just make up a religion that is pro-same sex marriage. It worked for Henry VIII when he wanted to get a divorce so he could marry someone younger and get a son.

And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills....

I'm not really sure why I just thought about this. It's weird when you just remember shit out of the blue. Okay, so maybe it's not out of the blue at all, I was listening to Rotten Apples by the Pumpkins and it has Landslide on it.

A few years ago I went to the movies with my roommate at the time (Rules of Attraction was the movie). Well we were sitting around waiting for the movie to start and there was some crapass station playing, the norm for public places. And Landslide, the Dixie Chicks version came on.

Well a few rows ahead of us are these kids who were probably about 16 or 17. Total I'm-a-punk-and-going-out-of-my-way-to-prove-it type. This is what the "head" punk said:

Man, I fucking hate when country ruins good rock songs. My Mom listens to country I hear this crap all the time. This is a Smashing Pumpkins song.

I so wanted to say something, but I just rolled my eyes and ate my pop corn. I was so not in the right state of mind to bring on conflict. However, after the movie when I went to call a cab and saw the above mentioned punk, I didn't keep my mouth shut. My response:

Um, excuse me? Hi. Um, I just wanted to say that Landslide is a great song, but it's not a Smashing Pumpkins song, it's a Stevie Nicks song. You see Billy Corgan is a huge Nicks fan so he covered it. And as much as I love Billy, his version kinda sucks, the Dixie Chick's are much closer to the original. You should really check out Stevie Nicks and Fleetwood Mac. Bye!

And than I walked away before he could say anything.

I by now means pretend to know everything about music, or really that much about music. I know what I like. However, when I talk loudly in public I like to know what I'm talking about.
