That's what happened in TN over the weekend.  A guy was threatening to commit suicide, so the cops shot him 6 times.  How kind of them.

I know some people are excited and that's great.  But even those people would be much more excited to hear something new rather than the 13th version of TWAT.  I really, really like the song, but I'm not at all interested in another version of it.  That's what I meant.  Even I would be excited to hear something new.  I may or may not like it, but I'd be excited about hearing it.

Really liking it is fine.  A few people might legitimately think it's the 2nd best (or best even) album of the decade so far.  I am 100% behind anyone liking the album.  I just didn't expect there to be enough people that liked it that much to have it make it that far even at a GnR site.

CD wouldn't even get nominated at an impartial site.  I just think overall we're a smarter site than to rank CD #2.  Maybe I'm wrong.

I voted Dookie, though I like Colour and the Shape a lot more.  Dookie was a defining album for the 90s and you couldn't watch MTV for an hour without seeing Longview or Basket Case playing for the longest time.  It may not stand the test of time as a musically great album (obviously it isn't), but it ushered a new type of alternative music that was lighter than Nirvana or PJ.  Without Dookie, we may never have gotten The Offspring, blink-182, and a lot of one hit wonders like My Own Worst Enemy .  None of it is the greatest music out there, but the music was fun and it was a nice distraction from the heaviness of much of the grunge/alternative era.
