Linkin Park

Contrary to what most people are saying on this site, LP are actually a good group. Yes they aren't as good as other Nu-Metal bands like Korn and Disturbed (I wouldn't even consider them Nu-Metal or any kind of Metal music really, more like straight up Rap Rock) but they are still a very creative, talented band that's a helluva lot better than most Rap/Pop crap on the radio today.

Linkin Park is not great, but still good. Too many people are just closed minded.

Government/Media fear

When the government or media (more often than not it's both working together somehow) drive fear of a new threat (often terrorism or a deadly disease) into the people of the nation and keep them from expressing all of their freedoms and/or views and doing the things they want to do

Notable stories/events that have been constantly attacked/used for Government/Media fear:

-Terrorism
-Communism (see McCarthyism/ Red Scare)
-AIDS
-Drugs
- 9/11
-The "Brain Eating Amoeba"

Grand Unification

The debut studio album from Fightstar. The album is a concept album largely based upon the anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion, as well as personal experiences of the band's members. Notable tracks from the album include "Grand Unification Pt. 1" and "Pt. 2" and "Hazy Eyes".

Greg puts Grand Unification by Fightstar as his all-time favorite album.

Persepolis

A fantastic graphic novel written by Marjane Satrapi based on her experiences growing up during and in the aftermath of the Islamic Revolution in Iran. Also made into an equally great animated film.

Usually Persepolis turns out to be required reading in school that is actually enjoyable

Airplane!

Hilarious 1980 movie. After the navigator and both pilots are among multiple people on an airline heading to Chicago from Los Angeles that get sick from some strange foodbourne illness, a doctor and two flight attendants seek the help from everyday man Ted Stryker (the ex-lover of one of the flight attendants) who has trouble just going near a plane since he made what he believed to be a bad move during an airstrike in the Vietnam War.

The movie is known for it's very random humor (i.e. a group of reporters is getting info about the crisis when one of them says "Okay boys, lets get some pictures". They then walk over to a wall with framed photographs of airlines and randomly start taking them down and walking out the door).

I got annoyed when my friend kept uttering the "don't call me Shirley" joke from Airplane!

Lebron James

The NBA's equivalent of the Black Eyed Peas.

Once a very respected and talented player. The longtime leader of the once-lowly Cleveland Cavaliers, actually leading them to successful playoff runs, even bringing them to the finals in 2007, though they lost to the San Antonio Spurs. During this time he was on par with basketball legend Michael Jordan, even taking his number 23 as a sign of respect. However, all the success and fame went to his head and convinced him that fame and money were more important than talent and respect. When his contract with the Cavs expired at the end of the 2009-10 season, Lebron used all the damage that fame did to him and decided to sign with the already dominant Miami Heat. They made it to the finals that year, but fortunately the Dallas Mavericks beat them, giving Lebron a reality check

Anyone who says Lebron James is better than Michael Jordan does not know smart from stupid.
