Beatles Unknown "A Hard Day's Night" Chord Mystery... →
“The opening chord to “A Hard Day’s Night” is also famous because, for 40 years, no one quite knew exactly what chord Harrison was playing.
There were theories aplenty and musicians, scholars and amateur guitar players all gave it a try, but it took a Dalhousie mathematician to figure out the exact formula.”

Some ghosts I'd like to lay to rest this Halloween
This political “season.” It’s been interesting, but I’m over it. Especially the negative attack ads. I’d like an election where I can vote for a candidate, not against one.
The Bush administration. I’m tired of the United States being the laughing stock of the world political arena.
Sarah Palin as funny. Sad, not funny, people.

CNN: McCain to appear on SNL this weekend →
thedailywhat:
Two weeks after running mate Sarah Palin made an appearance on the late-night comedy show, a McCain campaign aide tells CNN that the Republican presidential nominee will appear on the NBC program tomorrow night.
If they bring in Tina Fey to do Palin we may be on the verge of witnessing the greatest moment in TV history.
My God, I may actually have to watch this.
