Re: Happy 40th Anniversary to Gary Numan’s Debut Album ‘The Pleasure Principle’ Originally Released September 7, 1979

Release date above says 1999 but we know it was 1979... just a typo...

What's the record for most total weeks at number 1 in the UK for album? What about song?

Scott is dead on especially with the Civil War comment. Are you kidding me? If even one illegal is forced to go back the MSM and millions of SJWs would go NUTS.... 24/7 loop of ICE taking in an alien. So forget deportation folks. As an Italian Immigrant turned American Citizen we need to make it clear that there needs to be a legal path to citizenship. We need to stop the bleeding....of democrat voters.

Re: Crazy rare deal lowers Amazon Echo price to $130 from $180 MSRP

I can't find the link to get the discounted price. Did I miss something or can I not read English all of a sudden?

Re: Today, Reedsy changes the way millions of authors will create books

You might be right that I misunderstood this new platform because I'm still checking it out. However, from what I think I know about it so far it seems as if any professional can create an account as a freelancer and still provide their services for hire so I don't see how you are cut out of the loop. Yes, there will be some misguided authors who decide not to use professional services but their work will pay the price as the cream always rises to the top in the marketplace. Professionally edited/designed work is always clearly evident.

This reminds me of the time when 99Designs.com launched and there was massive outrage by graphic designers because it took away a great deal of business but clients were thrilled with the innovation. Yes this might sting for the professionals at first but as with all innovation the marketplace adjusts. In the grand scheme of things this is for the best for authors...and yes perhaps the owners/investors of Reedsy....but it will also improve the process with professionals as all projects will be centralized and thus make everything faster and easier. Let's see how it goes.

Re: Review: Charlie Kaufman's 'Anomalisa' will break your heart

Paisano® — Sun, 03 Jan 2016 10:23:23 -0000

Excellent review (ironic that I am rating a movie review, huh?). I've been thinking of this movie a lot since I saw it. I need to see it again. This reviewer does a good job describing the lead character and Lisa.... not sure how Charlie Kaufman always finds a way to write such realistic characters who seem unlikable but somehow, someway he gets us to pull for them. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is one of my favorite films of all-time so I am a big Kaufman fanboy... the mark of a brilliant writer is how deep and layered their work is. Each viewing exposing something you didn't catch the time before...which is why I look forward to experiencing Charlie's puppet show again real soon.

What a horrifying analogy... things did not turn out so well for the Native Americans did it? This could turn out to be Manifest Destiny 2.0.... Obama's legacy.

Re: Most Billboard 200 No. 1 Albums By Artist

Paisano® — Fri, 13 Nov 2015 13:10:31 -0000

Right...I was thinking of Adele but also Taylor did write a song called 22.... about her age so I got them confused. Adele won't release enough albums to break the record. Her pace seems to be every 2 or 3 years

Re: Most Billboard 200 No. 1 Albums By Artist

Paisano® — Fri, 13 Nov 2015 12:21:41 -0000

Most artists release an album a year so it will take a popular artist about 2 decades to top the Beatles' mark.... Taylor Swift will probably do it with her album called 45 (using her creative album naming formula which uses her age).

Re: Colorado man goes on murderous rampage after 911 dispatcher lectures panicked caller on open carry law

Paisano® — Tue, 03 Nov 2015 21:23:29 -0000

Agree. It stinks of reverse racial profiling... ironically, the racist mindset is way off base in these situations because statistics prove that in the majority of cases....mass murderers are usually white males so this should've sounded all of the alarms....even if it was proven to be wrong....it would've been the smart thing to do. Now three families have to deal with funerals...

That dispatcher needs to lose their job and face criminal charges... it's worse that the good sam law and refusing to help someone... hope this haunts them forever.

Re: Vote for the 2016 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees

Paisano® — Thu, 08 Oct 2015 16:00:59 -0000

I'd like to know how do non-performers get nominated to the rock committee? So many deserving people aren't in there yet. It seems like the luck of the draw if someone even nominates you and then your body of work can speak for itself.

I heard back from someone at the Rock Hall about this... here's what they said...

The recepient of the Ahmet Ertegun Award will be announced at a later
date, should someone be receiving the award.

Where's the list of nominees for non-performers such as songwriters? Holly Knight is rumored to be in line to get in after getting into the elite halls of the songwriter's hall of fame.

Re: A Brief History of the End of the Comments

Paisano® — Thu, 08 Oct 2015 11:43:26 -0000

There are just too many trolls out there. Period. They used to live under rocks and bridges and YouTube comments but now they're everywhere. No matter what you say, there will be a completely opposing POV but stated in an insulting manner with personal attacks. It's best when there are opposing viewpoints and both parties have an intelligent discourse supporting their beliefs and they display healthy level of respect and human decency...however that rarely happens anymore.

Microsoft might make the decision to make Wunderlist free for everyone. That would certainly open the flood gates.

Re: We’re gonna miss you, Goldie; R.I.P. Dave Goldberg

Paisano® — Sun, 03 May 2015 09:31:21 -0000

Beautiful tribute Jason. Moved me to tears. Everything you said about David came across in all the interviews I've seen of him. The silver lining in this tragedy of someone leaving the life much too soon (47 is much too young to go) is the fact that he lived and loved far more than most ever will in even twice those many years. Still... the kids and so many others will miss him forever.

Thank you for making this! I have always wished for something like this as I got tired of the tedious process involved. I've started using Clicky more than Point for links now. I did have one question though. For those of us who belong to multiple Slack teams, is there a way to switch easily from one team to another with Clicky? I know there's a logout link but then I have to enter the name of the team and login again... thus more clicks. :) p.s. I think Slack will want to acquire this so be ready for the call.
