In the spirit of giving credit where credit is due, here is a list of a few things I have recently accepted to be true and said truth's harbinger.
TRUTH/TRUTH GIVER
1. Say Hi to Your Mom is acutally a pretty cool band/Brandi Sessions
I was hesitant at first.There is very little "critical" cred to hide behind. And they do sound kind of like a wimpy Smith's cover band sometimes. And the vampire obsession is a little too cutesy. But I do like me a good pop song. and who can argue with Sweet, Sweet Heartkiller? Additionally, one of my absolute favorite local bands, Atherton, will be opening for them, or him I guess, at Kibly in March.
2. Stabbing a double stuff oreo in the stuffing with a fork and then dipping it in milk until the bubbles stop rising is the most effective way to get a completely even soak on your cookie/ Scott Jacobsen
This is true. I still find myself craving the fingers in the milk sometimes though, and a really, really soaked oreo will still fall off the fork.
3. Sleeping in a hoodie may help you get sleep better/ Ashely Connors
I was worried that it would be uncomfortable but I was wrong.
4. A blue tooth headset is a must have in construction/ Jared Parker
I think these things look really dumb and I am embarassed to be seen wearing it, but, I can install baseboard and talk to my wife at the same time. And it's more safe behind the wheel.
5. Once you have a DVR you will never view tv the same again/ Rett Jaques
true. The master/servant roles have changed. With this wonderful technology I get drinks, answer the phone, and get more salsa at my leisure. I make the rules now. But I find myself watching more TV, even amidst a writer's stike! I know there is no new 30 rock. I know there is no new edisode of the Office. But still I scroll through the guide. "OH, This is Spinal Tap starts in 2 hours, and World's Most Dangerous Jobs is on. He's cleaning a dingy in the San Franisco bay. I have the power to watch at my fingertips. I will make time later. Record. Record." And with each click of record the TV regains its control over me. My happy season as ruler will be short. I can feel it in the air already. Soon the TV, like the flat screened ring of power it is, will have it's way with me again. I am weaker than the hobbits. Yes, Rett was right. Regardless of whether or not the DVR will a great thing for me in the long run, I will certainly never view the TV the same again.
Among propositions currently being considered are:
1. Radiohead is the most important band ever. (or some variation of that.)/ Tyler Henderson
2. Rock Band is better than Guitar Hero/ Myself
3. Barack Obama is the best canidate for President/ Edward Kennedy and Common
4. Jon McCain is the best canidate for President/ The Terminator
5. Mitt Romeny is the best canidate for President/ owner of mini van next to me in traffic today
6. Hilary Clinton is the best canidate for President/ Maya Angelou
the truth is out there. here's to the quest.

"Radiohead is the most important band ever."
Quoted for truth.
Maya Angelou has come out in support of Barak Obama last I heard!
Henderson 1997 would have said that Tupac was the most important band ever. Would that have been true?
I rock! I knew you would succumb to Say Hi to your mom, however, I personally believe that John Cougar Melancamp holds the title of the most important band of al time, yes I said John Cougar, not that crap released under John Melancamp.
Tupac is not a band. Otherwise he would be in the mix.
1997 henderson does have a point. It's hard to argue with Tupac. Literally, it is a bad idea to argue with tupac, especially in 1997, which is the time 1997 henderson occupies. I mean, whose gonna argue with a guy who's "44 'll make sure all yo kids don't grow?" Pac, if you're reading this, you are the most important band ever. please, don't touch my kids.
