(this version produced by Todd Rundgren) ‘There is no real Perfection. There'll be no perfect day…. There's no good revolution. Just power changing hands. There is no straight solution. Except to understand. So listen to my song, of life. You don't need a gun, or a knife. Successful conversation, will take you very far’. There is no real Perfection. There'll be no perfect man.

‘Some people think they were born out of wisdom. Some people think they were bred out of grace. Some people think they're alive out of glory. Some people think through the hole in their face.

Kings of Leon have crafted a darker, less pop-oriented and somewhat cerebral affair with 2007's Because of the Times. In fact, if Alan Parsons lent the Allman Brothers his spaceship, Because of the Times would be the resulting space odyssey.
December 28, 2007 11:30 AM PST
Given that I just returned home from Scranton, PA recently, after the Christmas holiday, I’m just gonna get right to my picks for NFL Week 17. But first: Hear ‘COME ALIVE’, ‘Statues’, ‘Erase/Replace’, ‘Summers End’, and ‘Let It Die’ by the ‘FOO FIGHTERS’ here! And now, since this next teams playoff hopes will, ‘COME ALIVE’ should the Titans lose to the Colts this Sunday, My stone cold Leadpipe LOCK for NFL Week 17 is the: CLEVELAND BROWNS over the San Francisco 49ers 26 – 16 (covering the Spread as the favorite, no matter what the point spread is.)
December 28, 2007 11:24 AM PST
And now to NFL Week 17. I Will Not pick Buffalo over PHILADEPHIA at PHILLY, not the way the EAGLES are playing right now. I also Will Not pick Miami over CINCY at Miami, although this appears to be a popular pick this week. However, I am picking GREEN BAY over the Detroit Lions at Home 23 - 13 as my BONUS-LOCK instead. The Lions have not won in Wisconsin since 1991.
December 28, 2007 11:19 AM PST
In my 50 - 50 games I’ll take WASHINGTON over Dallas 23 – 20, clinching a playoff spot the winning way.

December 21, 2007 10:33 AM PST
But first, these are my ‘BEST’ CD’s for 2007 (Part 2) (11.) VELVET REVOLVER - LIBERTAD – This record is more cohesive than their debut, partially due to the presence of Weiland's old STP producer, Brendan O'Brien. Hear ‘SHE BUILDS QUICK MACHINES’, ‘Let It Roll’, ‘She Mine’, ‘The Last Fight’ & Gravedancer, by ‘Velvet Revolver’ right here, right now. (12.) BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN - MAGIC – After hearing this, it's hard not to wish that Bruce would record this way all the time. No hillbilly Pete Seger sessions here, this is the E-STREET BAND.
** (BONUS) U2 - THE JOSHUA TREE - [20th Anniversary 2-CD/DVD] - Makes perfect sense that The Joshua Tree would be the first deluxe reissue as it was the album that made U2 international superstars. And now, since I’m just gonna, ‘LET IT ROLL’ with this next pick, My stone cold LOCK for NFL Week 16 is the: ARIZONA CARDINALS over the Atlanta Falcons 30 – 16 (covering the Spread as the favorite, no matter what the point spread is)
December 21, 2007 10:29 AM PST
And now to NFL Week 16. I Will Not pick Chicago over GREEN BAY since the Packers are still fighting for Home Field advantage in the playoffs. I also Will Not pick Carolina over DALLAS, for the same reason, do you know what I mean (Lee Michaels). However, I am picking the DETROIT LIONS at home over KC 26 - 16 as my Bonus-LOCK instead.

Minnesota Vikings Cheerleader Laura. http://www.vikings.com/CheerleadersProfile_laura_2007.aspx In my 50 - 50 games I’ll take MINNESOTA over Washington 24 – 23, on a last minute field goal by Ryan Longwell. I also like the GIANTS this week in a Classic 50 – 50 matchup, over the Bills 20 – 19, also covering the spread, whatever it is.
December 21, 2007 10:21 AM PST
My Fake – Out for NFL Week 16 is PHILADELPHIA over New Orleans 27-26. You heard me!

December 14, 2007 12:39 PM PST
But first, These are my TOP 10 ‘BEST’ CD’s for 2007 (Part 1) (1.) SLOAN - NEVER HEAR THE END OF IT – This cd has some of the eclecticism of The White Album, yet it flows like Rundgren's deliberate head trip, A Wizard, a True Star. (2.) QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE - ERA VULGARIS - One of the best rock & roll records released in 2007 — and the year sure needed the dose of thunder that this album provides.
** (BONUS) THE EAGLES - LONG ROAD OUT OF EDEN - An album meticulously crafted to fit within the band's legacy without tarnishing it….I’ll have my Best of the rest for 2007 cd list ( ‘Part 2’) next week. (Bob) And now, should I lose on this pick, you’ll, ‘NEVER HEAR THE END OF IT’, My stone cold LOCK for NFL Week 15 is the: TAMPA BAY BUCS over the Atlanta Falcons 30 – 13 (covering the Spread as the -11.5 point favorite)
December 14, 2007 12:29 PM PST
And now to NFL Week 15. I Will Not pick Detroit over SAN DIEGO at SAN DIEGO under any circumstances. I also Will Not pick St. Louis over GREEN BAY, at St. Louis, not this year. However, I am picking the CLEVELAND BROWNS at home over the Buffalo Bills 27 - 17 as my Bonus-LOCK instead, also covering the -5.5 points as the favorite.

‘You know the sun is shining; it's raining in my heart. I don't know what to do since we've been apart. Why don't you tell me, babe, what is going on? …….. They're tearing us apart, They're breaking up my heart. I knew it from the start: Your friends are tearing us apart’. (ERIC CLAPTON) These song lyrics above kind of remind me of some of the poor coaching decisions made by Joe Gibbs, Sean Payton, and Brian Billick in NFL Week 13, tearing their team’s playoff chances apart. With that being said, which teams playoff hopes will be torn apart this week? We’ll see! And now since this next teams playoff chances will not be ‘Torn Apart’ this week. My stone cold LOCK for NFL Week 14 is the: BUFFALO BILLS over the Miami Dolphins 27 – 13 (covering the Spread as the -6.5 point favorite)

I usually Never pick the Cardinals on the road or pick against the Bengals at Home. I’m also taking the Bengals with the points, no matter what the spread is. I also absolutely Will Not pick the 49ers over the Rams right now, especially with Trent Dilfer at quarterback.
