[Donald Lee] Leger -- awaiting death for murdering a stranger in St. Mary Parish while chasing his girlfriend, who escaped his kidnapping attempt -- will now have viewings of Catholic Mass and have private confessions with a priest.Oh yeah. I keep forgetting that Louisiana isn't an electric chair state, like Florida.
Nevertheless, we'll proceed with a "lightning round" between Megadeth vs. Metallica

And just for the hell of it a link to dead horse, a quasi-death metal band I often quote. How to put this? dead horse is so incredibly under-appreciated and underrated and several other underthings... it's difficult to fathom. They were so, so good. You had to be there, I guess. And for those of you who were there (and who understand what we're after, and where the pope is, and why we eat alpo and drink beer) this hourlong clip of dead horse in concert at the Liberty Lunch might be the best thing you ever see on youtube this month. Like I said, if you weren't into the horsecore in the early nineties, the vid will seem inaccessible (except for around the 28 minute mark where there are AC/DC and a B-52's covers, back to back). So you can either go pick up a copy of Peaceful Death and Pretty Flowers and feel like an epigone, or you can go back to your bars, your temples, your massage parlors...

Sunday evening
returning home from church
masses of people
their lives summarized
in a paragraph--
not much different than mine!
We're after the same thing,
we're after the same peaceful death
-- from "Peaceful Death" by dead horse (music samples here)
