How Does One Become A Collaborator?

Answer:  do my laundry for a month.

You mean PA is military? You can get busted down in rank? Sounds like fun. I got forced into a desk job in the air force for too many  fast low passes including the one on my avatar.

many have been offered and refused.. knowing it isn't just a cute tag...  it means work.. and getting involved in putting your ass on the line.  Everyone has an opinion when it doesn't matter hahah.. when it does ..some don't want the headache.  Make no mistake... it is a headache.

The reason I don`t write that many reviews apart from not really having that much time is for the very reason that you mention above, what is my two cents going to matter when there`s, say, when there are over 700 reviews for Dark Side Of The Moon.  I actually wrote a review for it just for fun to see what would come out of my head. I did the same for Mike Oldfield`s Tubular Bells and Tales From Topographic Oceans and it kind of suprised me how they turned out. Now I try to review albums with less than 30 ratings so as not to become redundant. There`s at least 20 - 30 albums that have been reviewed by me alone on the site. I think I`ll just pull something at random this evening out of the dark recesses of my collection and review it no matter what it is.
