sarajevo

One of the worlds most beautiful cities that came close to destruction during the tragic Balkan War, the event we have to thank for the term ethnic cleansing. Sarajevo was home to all ethnic groups in Yugoslavia: Catholic Croatians, Protestant Serbs, and Muslim Bosnians. Then Serb nationalists started a war with the Bosnians, and also got the Croatians caught up in it. The city of Bosnia remained ethnically diverse, with many Serbs choosing to defend it alongside Bosnians, but relations have been strained by Serb war crimes (slaughtering thousands of unarmed civilians in the largest mass murder since the Holocaust) and Bosnian war crimes (burning of Churches, excecution of all Croatian and Serbian POWs). The city is being rebuilt, and has come a long way. Everyone should go there sometime.

Sarajevo is once again one of the greatest cities in Europe. It's got everything: sights, good hotels, good food, good booze, beautiful women, and friendly people. It's coming back. Hopefuly New Orleans can do the same.

top 40

The barren desert of music. To see a good artist in the top 40 has been unheard of ever since the breakup of Nirvana. Dominated by emo, the dregs of rap,pop divas, and poser-punk acts. At least the Boy Band craze is over. When Bob Dylan's new album reached the Billboard charts this week, I was amazed.

Dude, turn of that top 40 bullshit and put on this AC/DC cd.

the ONE and ONLY good thing to come from MTV since 1994.

mtv rock the vote may be liberal propaganda, but then again, liberals are usually right.

A wonderful ideal that is sadly no longer with us. Born 1776, died 2001 with the Patriot Act. RIP

Let us now observe a moment of silence for our dear late friend the first amendment.

kurt cobain

The great frontman for a great band, Nirvana. Was made a legend, whether he liked it or not. Excellent songwriter, nice guy, ok singer, ok guitarist. He in the end was driven to suicide by the strains on his shy, reserved personality that the rock-god life had.
Seriously, stop worshipping the man. He just wanted people to leave him to live a happy life, to not be stalked by fans and paparazzi 24/7. He wasn't "perfect." He had severe drug problems, which probably contributed to his suicide. There was his dumb feud with Axl Rose. And he wasn't a "prophet." He didn't view himself as one.

RIP Kurt Cobain. You will be missed.

nick mason

The drummer for legendary band Pink Floyd. He is an excellent drummer, and he has the distinction of being the only consistent member of the band.

I can't believe how underrated nick mason is!
