Another artist finds his way to my heart.
All I had ever heard from the man was Purple Rain. That quickly labeled him with all the other nonsense pop acts from the 80s in my eyes. Damn was I wrong though. After hearing a lot of praise these last years I decided to try him out.
I decided to start in both ends, so I acquired Purple Rain and 3121.
Yeah, it's pop to the bone, but yet so complex and masterful. Purple Rain is packed with good tunes, 3121 is also very good but a little less accessible. This man got what, 20 albums? Gonna be a ride the next few months.

Yeah sure...sorry not sure what happened to that link. This should work better:

Gonna have to get me something like this, soon.

I've read DYD by D'Angelo and The Dating Black Book by Carlos Xuma. The latter is far superior in my opinion, but D'Angelo's dvd set is gold too (costs a bit though), his book is a good starter.
You could always check out some of the community forums, they should have some additional tips on material.
Remember, trying is the cornerstone of success. Or in the words of Wayne Gretzky "you miss 100% of the shots you don't take".

DTJ: you might be 'immune' to this, but trust me, most women are not.
Immune? She married the guy! 
I'm into this, and as if it hasn't been said enough before, it does work.
It's not a game per se, although that's part of it (then again, what isn't?), it's about developing yourself. Setting limits and identify your desires, finding yourself if you will, and then go for it.
All through out life we've been conditioned to think that some things 'just ain't for me'. Throwing that mindset in the trash is step one. Take a look at the people who have all that you want; what did they start out with that you didn't? That's right, nothing, except will.
And like has been said, it applies to so much more than dating and relationships. Be it career, health, money, studies...anything.
Funny things is, after learning about this I see it everywhere. Biographies, personal development books, politics, business, warfare etc. etc. All who have gone on to do great things use this method in some degree or another. You ask me it's a law of nature.

#4577 Re: The Garden » Misunderstood Lyrics » 968 weeks ago
Actually there's 3 variants to the chorus. The first two are "war, children, it's just a shot away". Then it becomes "rape, murder, it's just a shot away" until it morphs into "love, sister, it's just a kiss away" at the end.
Fantastic song.

I could never figure out the chorus in Gimme Shelter.
Surprising to say the least when I found it was "rape, murder, it's just a shot away".
Generally, if I haven't read the booklet, I have no idea what people are saying in songs. Not even when it's my native language.
Lyrics are just syllables to me.

Fracture - Good first 30 minutes, but ultimately unfocused crap.
American Gangster - Major let down. Story that goes nowhere, lack of focus and superficial characters. How you can fuck up a Frank Lucas story like this is beyond me, especially when Ridley is in charge.
Sunshine - I was expecting the usual disaster movie, but this one actually had some cool angles. You're still left with an impression of a movie that doesn't quite know what it is, but the effort was immensely appreciated.
Rambo IV - Hell yeah. Nough said.
All in all, what has the world come to when legends like Scorsese and Scott flush out this nonsense?
