Second, as J.K. Rowling said, "Ah, music. A magic beyond all we do here." I, like you, find my soul's release in music: Playing it, listening to it, singing along with it, and occasionally dancing around my room to it. Songs and/or bands/individuals that NEVER get old (I have a playlist titled that... ): Somewhere in the Night and This One's for You by Barry Manilow The Beatles Bennie and the Jets by Elton John Don't Stop Believing by Journey Everybody by The Backstreet Boys Skillet Radiohead One World and No Ordinary Love by Toby Mac She's Not There by the Zombies Your Song by Elton John or from Moulin Rouge (Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman) (either recording is good) Take On Me by a-Ha Unchained Melody by The Righteous Brothers The Stroke by Billie Squire Mickey by Toni Basil Leader of the Pack by the Shangri-Las Hello Muddah, Hello Fuddah! by Allan Sherman Styx Katy Perry Van Morrison Beyoncé This list could literally go on forever so I'm going to stop here and just say that these are just a few (a few GREAT ones at that!). :) Enjoy looking up the ones you've never heard of (if there are any).

Was christianity ever blamed? No. But every time a Muslim commits a crime it is a strike against Islam. Why this double standard? I think most people can see that it is just plain racism.

Just how close is too close, how far is far enough? As I understand it, this proposed community center is 2 blocks away from ground zero. Would 3 blocks be far enough? 4? 5? 10? Or is there no distance that satisfies the desire to hate and discriminate for political purposes and fear mongering?
