        it doesn't erase wife beating either, but we still noted Ike Turner's musical contributions when he passed. -- nm - Reagen Jun 25, 21:00 18
        
        For how long? About 30 seconds? -- nm - Stephen Jun 25, 21:02

        We did? - Spawn Jun 25, 21:01 6
        
        not to this degree, but there was definitely talk about how he basically invented some kinds of rock. -- nm - Reagen Jun 25, 21:02 5
        
        I honestly must have missed that day or hour on ST. -- nm - Spawn Jun 25, 21:03 4
        
        I'm not talking specifically about ST. - Reagen Jun 25, 21:05 3

- MJ? Whatever you might think of the guy personally, his impact on the music scene is undeniable. - Reagen Jun 25, 20:47 11

        DAN -- nm - nubby Jun 25, 20:54
      - Note: That correction was not intended due to his departure from the mortal plain, rather his departure from musical relevance. -- nm - Spawn Jun 25, 20:50 4
        
        well then, I must disagree. His impact is still felt even if he hadn't produced anything of note in a decade. - Reagen Jun 25, 20:53 3
        
        "a" decade? -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Jun 25, 20:57 1
        
        just picking a round number. -- nm - Reagen Jun 25, 20:58
        
        True, but his loss will not hurt and may actually increase that influence. -- nm - Spawn Jun 25, 20:55
- it would be much easier if people were completely one-dimensional -- nm - dug Jun 25, 20:45 13
  - If only musical talent was enough to erase the heinousness of child molestation... -- nm - Stephen Jun 25, 20:53 12
    - he can be both a musical genius and an (unproven) pedophile. people are complicated animals -- nm - dug Jun 25, 20:54 11
      - "unproven". heh. -- nm - Spawn Jun 25, 20:55 10
        
        the situation was a creepy one but that kid and his family were about as credible as OJ -- nm - dug Jun 25, 20:57
        
        he was found not guilty - Reagen Jun 25, 20:56 8

        batshit crazy at the very least. -- nm - loosilu Jun 25, 21:03 3

- ... and likes 311 (or even knows who they are) ... -- nm - Spawn Jun 25, 20:38 2
  - well, any friend of mine knows who they are, because I never shut the fuck up about them. - TFox Jun 25, 20:38 1

Watching a show on Discovery about Bull Sharks. Going 80 miles up rivers and attacking people? In the Amazon river up to 2200 miles up fresh water. - Redmond Jun 25, 20:33 9
- I really think you'd be interested in this. - Trish Jun 25, 20:40 7
  - They talked about that attack briefly. I did see an entire show on it though (forget the show or channel). Very fascinating. - Redmond Jun 25, 20:45 6
    - The New Jersey case was especially interesting because that shark actually travelled up small streams that were barely wide enough to accomodate - Trish Jun 25, 20:55 4
      - Chomp is right! -- nm - Redmond Jun 25, 20:59
      - They just talked about one that attacked a horse in Australia. It got over a 12 foot dam. They did research and found the area flooded one year - Redmond Jun 25, 20:58 2
        
        that would have been one surprised horse. -- nm - Reagen Jun 25, 21:13 1
        
        It was a racing horse, and the trainer had it in the river to build it's strength up. - Redmond Jun 25, 21:17
    - Oh wow. They had a bull shark attack in Lake Michigan. And as far up the Mississippi as St. Louis they sighted one. -- nm - Redmond Jun 25, 20:49
- One of them almost ate me once -- nm - Coach Jun 25, 20:36
