Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.
When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Send Dan back to covering hurricanes. He started this weather as entertainment. He loved using his folksy Texas euphamisms.

He likes telling everyone he is a Texan. I like some of the interviews - Gene Simmons. Could do with never seeing Dan again

I love Floyd for the music and Waters for the thoughtful lyrics. I have to admit, Waters sometimes reminds me of a cat in heat at points.
Awesome artists, not gods.
I think Pink Floyd lost most of their soul when Sid Barrett left (crashed). "Shine On You Crazy Diamond," indeed.
You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

I think a lot of people are letting their hatred of Waters' politics cloud their opinion.
Pink Floyd being better after he left is legitimately laughable.
Pink Floyd needs Waters and Gilmore.

I tried to watch one of his interviews, can't stand the guy
however I'm recording all of the Rock Legends shows and while less in depth, far more entertaining

I would agree that Pink Floyd NEEDS Gilmour, but they've done quite well without Waters
but its moot now that Wright has passed away and Mason is no longer touring
I've never been a fan of Waters, mostly because of his persona but also because of his attitude towards the fans that made him wealthy
and we won't bring up his spitting on fans during a show
