        Economy

        Thanks to Republican economic policies, the U.S. economy is robust
        and job creation is strong.

        Republican tax cuts are creating jobs and continuing to
        strengthen the economy,
        \_ Thanks for the reminder. I need to Google and Yahoo for Republicans
           and then click on their advertisements to support Google and
           Yahoo while draining Republican resources. Search for
           "conservative republican" and click on Recovering Republican
           and Newt Gingrich Newsletter and help the world!

1/22    When applying for a marriage license, is it better to do public
        record or private? If I do public, will we start getting spam
        and solicitations?

1/22    How's that "ex-gay" thing comin' Mr. Haggard?

        \_ The 'ex' is short for 'extra.'

1/22    I've had no luck trying to id this music.  The trailer for
        Slumdog Millionire:
        http://www.hulu.com/watch/44670/movie-trailers-slumdog-millionaire
        About 1:15 there's that instrumental music.  It's NOT part of
        the movie's soundtrack.  It's used just in the trailer.  I've
        heard it before in other movie trailers.  Anybody can id that
        piece of music?  Thanks.
        \_ isn't that just a Coldplay song?
           \_ after much searching I've found the answer to my own
              question.  It is Hoppiopolla by Sigur Ros
              http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EyI4p0yjDQ  It's an
              Icelandic Band.
              \_ You mean Putingrad Depression Sonic Weapon.
              \_ God, using the term "band" loosely, I saw Heima once
                 man their music is like iceland or eve, bleak, depressing
                 containing only one or two colours. ugh. So depressing
                 I supose Putin will make them Number One Soviet Band now.
                \_ this sounds like a paolo statement.  Did paolo not post this?
                   for those interested in reality, Sigur Ros is not actually
                   very representative of Icelandic music.   --brain
