 Take Manhattan
Trying to change the system from within,
I'm coming, I'm coming to reward them,
First we take Manhattan..., Then we take Berlin.

'First We Take Manhattan' is a song written by Leonard Cohen. It was originally recorded by Jennifer Warnes on her 1987 album Famous Blue Raincoat, which consisted entirely of songs written or co-written by Cohen.

 Bush Has Fun The Obama Girls Sing to George Bush in the "You're So Lame" video (3min 37sec) a sort of intelligent "street" view of how many, many people in America feel about George W. Bush. The 'real' people in so many countries know what 'real' life is about while the rich, well-dressed, but lame elite just acquire more and more. This little video makes fun of their 'ultimate puppet'.
You're so Lame...a holiday tribute celebrating the arrival of 2008, and the upcoming exit of President Bush. Directed by: Larry Strong and Kevin Arbouet. Music & Lyrics: Leah Kauffman. Featuring: Leah Kauffman, Amber Lee Ettinger, Jen Block, Sena Khoda, David Feingold, and a host of others around the country who sent videos.
Lyrics: "You're so lame. You won't get that this song is about you. You're so lame. You're so lame. The Republicans know they should doubt you, doubt you, doubt you. Doubt you. Doubt you. You were never very bright. Your judgment's even weaker. You can barely read our write. We were all very worried..." |

 Walken Cooks ...Today we're gonna make a dish that my crazy aunt used to make before she died in the bath. Chicken with popcorn shrimp.
But hey I gotta tell you, this ain't a health kick dish. It ain't gonna make a fat boy slim.
OK. The first thing you need to do is get youself a free-range chicken. I don't care how you do it. Buy one, Hunt one down with a knife..."

 Half Way There Comforting, well-balanced, and disarming aren't the adjectives you'd usually use to describe a morning DJ, but Matt McAllister_-_the number-one radio personality in Santa Barbara_-_is all of the above. As the front man and mastermind behind 99.9 KTYD's The Early Show, he's a complex man made up of calculated and unconscious contradictions.
On-air, he cracks crude jokes and pushes the masculine buck, while off-air, he's emceeing nonprofit functions up and down the coast and genuinely caring for the town where we live. What's not so complex_-_but what makes his competing sides co-exist beautifully_-_is that Matt McAllister is the undisputed funniest person in Santa Barbara. |
