Time marches on


For Whom the Bell Tolls is a novel written by Ernest Hemmingway. It is also a famous song by heavy metal band Metallica. This song is included on the album Ride the Lightning. As the book progressed throughout the 40's and World War 2, many people were suprised as to how good this book is. It describes a rebel named Robert Jordan, fighting with local guerillas against the dictator of the time, Fransisco Franco. The song istelf is loosely based on the book, but also does describe Robert. Death is a primary theme of the novel and song. The book and song describe the destruction of cities and people through civil war.

September 29

Incase you haven't heard, Metallica will drop by the American Airlines Center in Dallas to promote their tour. Recently, Guitar Hero released a game in their honor, so looks like Metallica's future is bright for now on. I've managed to find ticket prices and well, they are very pricy. The prices range from $50 to $70,(not counting the good seats). Well I hope I didn't destroy your chances of going.(well no not really), but really.
