     "The problem with journalists (is) they think that their opinions
      matter. That's the problem with most rock stars and musicians; they
      think that their opinions really matter.  They don't. They're there
      for you to enjoy or throw out.  That's why ears have holes in 'em;
      music can go in and out."
				-Steven Tyler of Aerosmith in Music Choice

the Department of Transportation are 'peanut- head-free' zones." (Johnny
Robish)

The Purple One: There's apparently a report going around that the Artist
Formerly Known as Prince got into some kind of scuffle with the group Aqua
