I was stationed in Germany in the 1960's and bought the LP in a german store. The word on the german version was "I'm white" not "wear white" This version of the LP was banned in the UK.

Imagine Dragons is a four-piece rock band based in Las Vegas, Nevada, that formed in 2008. The group's name is an anagram of "Gonad Migraines," their original name that they regretfully discarded. [1]

"Though [Master P's} net worth was once estimated at $600,000,000, he has been ordered to pay just $271 a month in child support for his four minor children"

Surely they mean $600,000?

In 1969, Lucas married film editor Marcia Lou Griffin, who went on to win an Academy Award for her editing work on the original Star Wars film. George and Marcia adopted a daughter, Amanda, in 1981, and divorced in 1983. Lucas has since adopted two more children: Katie, born in 1988, and Jett, born in 1993. All three of his children have appeared in the three Star Wars prequels, as has Lucas himself. During the 1980s, Lucas was in a relationship with singer Linda Ronstadt. He has been dating Mellody Hobson, president of Ariel Investments, since 2006 and she has accompanied him to several events including the 79th Academy Awards ceremony in February 2007, an American Film Institute event in October 2007, the 2008 Cannes Film Festival held in May, and the 2010 Golden Globes.

The Return of the Jedi novelization introduced the term "jizz-wailer" to describe a musician, but the term "jizz" on its own, as the name of the musical style, was not introduced until the publication of Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina, twelve years later.

The packaging of the 2007 Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes action figure 5-pack refers to the band's music as "jazz", which may indicate that "jizz" is being phased out of Star Wars canon. However, it's more likely that Hasbro did not want the term, synonymous with semen, on a toy package.

Much more personal to add your own semen to the package.

Watson reportedly felt "ambivalent" about prostituting women, even though it "paid better" than music.

The high point, in terms of well-known candy, came during the ten years Rick Santorum sat at the candy desk (1997–2007). Being a senator from Pennsylvania, he filled the candy desk with Hershey candy and Just Born products (such as Mike and Ike and Hot Tamales).[1] During this time period, Hershey shipped roughly 100 pounds of chocolate and other candy four times a year for Santorum to fill the desk.[10] When Santorum did not win re-election during the 2006 U.S. Senate elections, Kirk Saville, a spokesman for Hershey, said about the company's no longer being able to supply sweets for the candy desk, "We were pleased to be a small part of sweetening up congressional proceedings."[1]

For the first time in their career the band members decided to write personal dedication notes on the album sleeve thus thanking the late Alex Sadkin who had been killed in a car crash in late 1987, the late Andy Warhol, who had died in early 1987 and David Miles, a childhood friend of Le Bon's who died of an illegal drug cigarette during the album's creation.

There are several common causes of poor quality conference calls:
People simply not showing up.
Lack of familiarity with behaviour and protocol.
Lack of familiarity with equipment and technology.
Background noise and disturbances.
Poor coordination by call-initiator.
Lack of moderator

Despite his father being Jewish[5] while attending school he was a speaker and leader for two Neo-Nazi groups he started.[6] His success was very limited.[7]

Dan Burros' Jewish heritage had been suspected by a number of fellow American Nazi Party members. Many of Rockwell's stormtroopers distrusted Burros not only for being Jewish, but also a self-hating Jew, and for his bizarre behavior. Burros would sometimes bring knish to the American Nazi Party headquarters and make such outrageous statements as: "Let's eat this good Jew food!"
