How the Trump Campaign Spread a Dirty Meme About Protesters Paid by Clinton, Sanders, and Soros(...) Two days later, Stone laid out his theory again in a post for the Daily Caller, in which he also claimed to have confirmed it by “infiltrating” a rally against Trump in New York on March 19, and catching the protesters off guard. “Several admitted answering a Craig’s list (sic) ad paying $16 an hour for protesters,” Stone insisted.This “reporting,” from a political operative who has a long track record of spreading unsourced innuendo about candidates he works against — and claims to confer with Trump at least once a week — was quickly shared on social networks as absolute proof by one of Trump’s biggest fans, Ann Coulter, and his son, Eric Trump. Stone did not reply to requests for comment from The Intercept. Later the same week, Trump’s campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, came across what looked like definitive evidence of Stone’s theory: an article headlined “Donald Trump Protester Speaks Out: ‘I Was Paid $3,500 to Protest Trump’s Rally.'”
A screen shot of Corey Lewandowski’s Twitter feed. Lewandowski shared the article on Twitter — only to be informed by other people who took the time to read the full text, and the description of the website, that it was a hoax — it was not from ABC News at all, but a website with a URL that was similar to it. Like Ann Coulter, who also shared the hoax report, Lewandowski later deleted his tweet, but not before it had already been shared hundreds of times. The fake news report was written by a well-known internet prankster, Paul Horner, whose work in that genre has earned him millions of readers, tens of thousands of dollars, and a profile in the Washington Post. Horner, who actually attended the protest outside Phoenix, took all the essential elements of Stone’s theory and wove them into a fictional news report, even creating this fake Craigslist ad as “evidence.” (...)

I can honestly say that I was at the very first Hootie show at a little Marine ROTC hole in the wall called Pappys on nickel beer night; was packed with about 12 or 13 people with Darius belting it out on a 10x10 stage. Yes, they did suck but it wasn't their fault they are actually pretty good musicians and Darius is a fine vocalist, their music was just very generic obviously. I've heard that many times and it fits well with Scott's Theory of Pop Stardom: be nice. Nothing else will get you out of the bars.

The best year in music ever was 1729. Not only was this the first year that Eileen Aroon appeared in print, but the Rucker family of the Netherlands began producing their heavier versions of the harpsichord, which took the music world by storm.
Oh, about that:

I'm sure you know,as most people who are Biblical scholars like yourself do,that Luke 16:19-31 might have been the impetus for that song.
You made me go and look up the song on wiki, dammit and all these memories of my freshman year in high school when the album came out and which came first the song or the acid. Then all this stuff came flooding back into my mind about my first trip on white owsley, the next summer while it was still legal cuz Art Linkletter's daughter hadn't yet tried flying out a window while tripping, but that's a whole nuther story cuz, and are stories about sex, drugs and rock n roll really appropriate for a place like RP anyway ? damn hippies ... obtw ... the song came first ... an another thing ... 1967 was the best year in music, ever ...

Nearly every song would have a comment from from him in big green font saying that everyone in his crazy church was dancing on the tables (or something similar) to the song being played. Anyway if you look at his song ratings they are all either 1/10 or 10/10. Never in-between. I though this was common knowledge among old timers so cracked a joke about it.
