Sunday?  Brother, on what planet?

Which reminds me, no P-lister has yet mentioned the recently published 
experiments which demonstrate light traveling faster than the "speed of 
light."  Einstein was technically wrong (maybe), but what are a few 
echnicalities between friends...

Thanks for the list.  Public Enemy deserves top billing.  Truly Mad and 
Cerebral Artists.   Flava-Flave doing "911 is a Joke" kills!!!

Beastie Boys have proven that white boys do have souls.  Who would've 
thought from their "You've Got to Fight for Your Right to Party" debut.  For 
a very nice unexpected pleasure try "the In Sound From Way Out."  All 
instrumental, Acid Jazzy but with their own licks.  Worth a listen.
