Led zeppelin lyrics and The Lord of the Rings characters.

missak @missak (3311) • Spain 14 Apr 07

I've heard a lot of Led zeppeling lyrics are related to Tolkien books, inclusively they mention some characters such as Gollum. What do you know about this?

crispa Whilst not strictly containing any LoR references (that I know of anyhow), I think No Quarter (especially the live version on Song Remains The Same) very Tolkein-esque in lyrics and atmosphere.

What's the real rate of inflation?

crispa @crispa (18) 10 Jun 08

Where I live, we keep getting told that inflation is running at 2 or 3%, which means that public sector pay is pegged to rises of that nature. What I wonder is where do they get these figures from? Certainly for me, prices seem to...

crispa When you are young, you may well think that you'll never get married but, whatever your thoughts on the subject, when you meet the right person, you fall head-over-heels in love and think you can make it work with this person come what may. Then, years down...

Anyone else never play The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess?

Marcola @Marcola (2774) • United States 13 May 08

I've never played and I've got the urge to buy it. I wish the price would come down, but alas. I was also thinking about getting Super Paper Mario or Super Mario Galaxy. Super Paper Mario seems pretty good and I like the previous...

crispa The price may be high but its well worth it. The game is immense! The game world is vast and there is so much to it that you keep spotting things you have not noticed before as your character and abilities develop. We've had the game since christmas and my son...

Do you have any issues with your Wii?

ZephyrSun @ZephyrSun (7381) • United States 9 Jun 08

We bought a Wii 11 months ago, and a few weeks ago it started "not being able to read the disc" So my husband called the 800 number and started to explain the problem to them and before he could finish she said "yeah the hard...

Faith and Works

Pose123 @Pose123 (21635) • Canada 9 Jun 08

I have a friend who is a born again Christian, but he is very careful not to seen as doing a lot of what he calls "good works". He is afraid, he says, that people will get the idea that good works will get them to heaven....

crispa My understanding is that, if you are a Christian (i.e a follower of Christ), you want to live you life like Christ did. Since Christ himslef commanded the we "Love our neighbors as ourselves" then how can Christians avoid doing good works? It seems to me that...

Deep Purple versus Led Zepplin

Mark Hodgetts @MarkHodgetts (169) • Australia 26 Apr 07

In their heyday both these bands were mentioned in the same breath, but as time has gone on Zepplin have assumed mythical status (mainly due to superior management) while Purple although enjoying something of a renaissance have...

crispa Its funny you should say that Zeppelins songs were more appealing to the general population when they weren't into releasing singles and preferred to concentrate on the live format, much like Purple in fact. I think Zeppelin have the edge because their songs...

What's the best album ever released by the band?

crispa @crispa (18) 10 Jun 08

Each album is special in its own way but for me, perhaps contraversially, the best album is "Presence". I just love every track on it, especially "Achilles Last Stand" and "Nobody's Fault But Mine".

Kids and restaurant food..

ersmommy1 @ersmommy1 (12588) • United States 9 Jun 08

Have you noticed that several restaurants are offering healthier choices on the kids menu? Depending on the place you can get fruit cocktail. Fresh fruit, or steamed broccoli. This works for us, my daughter only wants fries once...

crispa My kids aren't really interested in the 'healthy' fruit and veg. when we eat out, which is OK because we don't eat out that often so I don't mind if they choose unhealthy but tasty food. We tend to see eating out as a treat and my kids just don't view fruit...

What's Wrong with England's Style of Play

crispa @crispa (18) 9 Jun 08

Why is it that whenever a defender gets the ball, his instinct seems to be to pass it backwards? I've seen this happen sooooo many times under Sven and McLaren and it doesn't seem to have changed even under the new boss. Every...

crispa I think they are the best band ever simply because each of its members is/was outstanding in their field. Its hard for me to come up with many better drummers than Bonham snr, Guitarists than Page, front men than Plant and lets not forget the multi-talented...
