Hold the presses, folks, your Catholic God just told Pope Beanie that it's okay to acknowledge evolution as long as God is the guy doing the evolving. So let it be written, where the white teenage boys at, etc.
Besides the Government was pretty goddamn big in 1850 anyway. If big government is the singular reason then it took em over 150 years to raise the life expectancy a mere 35 years? that's slow as shit. our elected politicians suck. I want reparations for my grandfather who died in his early 40s
Yeah, some white haired bearded old dude in the sky created Alpha Omega Chronos-217 about 700 trillion light years away from earth just to fuck with us. _

Somebody mentioned something to me today about big government, basically it was the switch to the direct election of senators which ushered in the era of big federal government because it irrevocably altered the balance of power between state governments and the federal government and it gave rise national special interests that could and did and do wield enormous influence. Have to think a little on that.
There were huge national special interests before that. Primarily banking, mining, logging and railroad companies. I think the hypothesis that direct election of senators influenced the move to a big national government is a good one. Before that a senator couldn't do anything that his statehouse didn't want. After that he had more ability to buck the local interests in favor of whoever stuffed his pocket full of the most money. That's certainly the case now.
My Bro and I, back in the day, would hitch to the beach with a cooler. Roll up on the crowded sand...Blanket out, Crack cold ones...and throw on Motorhead, or Manowar...and gain half an acre of open space. (For the mathematically challenged, and acre is a Chain x Furlong)
Hobbes, you were batting .1000 until you mentioned Mötorhead and Manowar in the same sentence. Now you're batting cleanup.
That's why I love you bro. Did I ever tell you I hit over .700 one season? (Dark Avenger through the Bose Triports as we speak)
Manowar: The Undisputed Kings of Comedy Hobbes………..please tell me you didn't buy this album…… --wtf? The real deal
Eric Adams gauntlet on the cover of anthology is completely practical. Where else would the giant eagles land during Metal Warriors?
'Eric Adams' as in Louie Marullo? Fughgetabouit! There's cheesy power metal, and then there's Manowar Left to Right : Carole King, Caitlan Jenner, Ann Coulter, and Fabio Manoway: pioneers of homoerotic attire since 1980
Dress for the job you want. If you're gonna play football you wear cleats and pads. If ya wanna shred this 29 fret DS7 you gotta wear the man thong.
By moonlight we ride... 10,000 side by side ... with swords drawn, held high... our whips and armour shine... heil to thee our infantry... still brave beyond the grave how proud our soldiers stand with mace and chain in hand KILL.KILL... or He broke the laws of the elders So they plucked out his eye, Took his land and fortune, Left him to die Bound on the shoreline, Left for the tide, Sees his life blood leaving... Circling lower the vultures fly These bones may be broken But the spirit can't die And the Gods see his anguish And give him a sign From the floor of the ocean The ship of the lost souls rise And they take him where no one sleeps while the undead cry Where no one sleeps while the undead cry And in the world above The elders sing, On his land they live Let death's bell ring (P.S. This is Orson fucking Wells...not metaphorically, but IRL) He was met at the gate of Hades By the Guardian of the Lost Souls, The Keeper of the Unavenged And He did say to him: "Let ye not pass Abaddon, return to the world from whence you came And seek payment not only for thine own anguish But vindicate the souls of the unavenged" And they placed in his hands a sword made for him called Vengeance Forged in brimstone and tempered by the woeful tears of the unavenged And to carry him on his journey back to the upper world They brought forth their demon horse called Black Death A grim steed so fearsome in might and black in color That he could stand as one with the darkness Save for his burning eyes of crimson fire And on that night they rode up from Hell The pounding of his hooves did clap like thunder (/Orson fucking Wells) Burning, death, destruction raping the daughters and wives In blood I take my payment in full with their lives No one can escape me on Black Death I ride When kissed by the sword of Vengeance Your head lays there by your side I take the lives of all that I once knew The torn flesh of a slow death waits for you Burning, death, destruction raping the daughters and wives In blood I take my payment in full with their lives I spare not land or servants my wake is smoke and flame I take their wives and daughters They stand there watching, watching Hoping to gain their lives but when I'm through they know they must pay... Burning, death, destruction raping the daughters and wives In blood I take my payment in full with their lives Tom Petty ain't getting you a half acre on the beach like that, Manowar, some bad ass shades and a cooler will
No I did not buy Anthology. I own Battle Hymns,Sign of the Hammer et al. Best metal magazine quote from the80's 'Manowar owns every Marshall ever produced not named Tito or Dillon' Pretty sure I was the only guy that actually understood the quote. Manowar is like Calvin and Hobbes. If you don't like it, it's probably because you don't get it.
