I'm so Republican, my first name starts with 'R.' I'm so right-wing - well, Randy Weber. You do the math.
Our thoughts have an order, not of themselves, but because the mind generates the spatio-temporal relationships involved in every experience.
We don't have time to wait for President Bush to change his mind. How many breakthroughs have been missed as a result of this policy?
Passion isn't something that lives way up in the sky, in abstract dreams and hopes. It lives at ground level, in the specific details of what you're actually doing every day.
A lot of political music to me can be rather pedantic and corny, and when it's done right - like Bruce Springsteen or Jackson Browne or great satire from Randy Newman, there's nothing better.
We all obviously need others to look up to, and be inspirational to us. Ford did a great job as far as putting the presidency back where it belonged, getting the trust back after Nixon. And President Reagan has been one of the most influential presid...
Great musicians, you don't just hear them, you feel them. When I listen to Randy Rhoads, I feel every note. I learned a lot from him.

I've never categorically been a banker. I had two internships while I was at university. The decision was more banking, or magic, and I went with the latter.
Randy: Hey Paul, tell us a joke! Paul: Fuck. Damn. Go to Hell. Ass.

Randy 'The Ram' Robinson: The only place I get hurt is out there. The world don't give a shit about me.
