Filthy rich and making money by just being there

And apparently people like Paris get PAID to grace parties with their presence. Not just a fiver either but thousands of dollars...

Is this a weird world or what?

Remastered CDs 2009?

@jonathan keith:

As an article in Mojo Magazine states they've been busy remastering the stuff for the past three years and are now done, I guess it is up to the record company lawyers and PR-people to get those records manufactured and into the stores. As we'll get both stereo and mono versions of most albums the rippers will have a field day getting it all onto Pirate Bay and such.

@ Stuart Van Onselen: "The Big O"

Surely there's only one "The Big O". I am of course talking about Roy Orbison.

If Obama's actions proof to be the political equivalent to "Only The Lonely", "Pretty Woman", "In Dreams", "Crying" and a bunch of other classics he m-i-g-h-t earn the title.

@ Further off topic, but hey!

Good grief! From France they're less than seven hours away! My thoughts are with all people of the "free world".
