You Are Beautiful


So U2 just absolutely embarrassed Green Day in the Monday Night Football pre-game show. I know plenty of folks who adore Billy Joe Armstrong, but I just don't get it. Green Day fans can keep their self-destructive, gloom-ridden top-40 punk. As this New Orleans performance proved – along with the (less than 5 months post 9/11) Super Bowl XXXVI half-time show – sometimes exuberant, world-saving rock 'n' roll is the most beautifully healing sound in the world.

May God bless New Orleans.

But the real question is: Who looks better in eye makeup? Ponder that one.
