Another hit. Stones had some really great stuff going on, and the public couldn't get enough.

It's kinda funny. The former WWF - now 'WWE' seemed to change their name when they were becoming more 'lightweight' in terms of their approach to writing the wrestling, that was within the sphere of world wrestling. The 'federation' (f) of wrestling became the 'entertainment' (e) and it all went downhill from there, when things became more fake.

The wrestlers became more skilled as time progressed, but the writing and emotions of the wrestlers became emotionally sterile, and it has been in free-fall for a long time, since. Watching a bunch of highly skilled wrestlers in the modern era, who are way more skilled than WWF wrestlers in general, without the emotional context of political incorrectness, is a bit like watching robots' fight. It is boring & lifeless.


Stone Cold Steve Austin was a WWF superstar, who nearly had his neck broken by a 'move' of another wrestler (for real). Even though wrestling fights are/were essentially scripted, they pose very real risks to wrestlers, sometimes mortal risks - and people have died in the ring.

He was a fan favourite because even though he was broken & disabled, with a cast on his knee during fights from a real knee injury and harbouring a neck injury, even though he was small & bald and uncultured, he was a savage in the ring. He simply did what he had to do to survive the gargantuan odds placed against him and the crowd loved it.

Not a big hit. But It's surprisingly good.

Sometimes things happen, that turn your heart to stone. I suppose It's a pretty common phenomenon.

A melodic hit. Written about a redhead that Mick Jagger liked. (A groupie.)

I wasn't a big fan of this song in the past, now its one of my favorites.

For anyone who doesn't know, the Goa'uld in the 'Stargate' television series were an overwhelmingly powerful, parasitic alien race who sat in the literal gut of human hosts'. The human hosts were then bestowed great power in health & immunity, due to their way and style of thinking.

They were these ghastly little lizard-things - and depending on the Goa'uld, they could be so insanely evil, they were like overlords of the proverbial 'underworld'.

Then then implanted 'clones' of their thought processes and thinking style into a slave race (symbolised by actual physical lizard-thing Goa'uld's - called the 'Jaffa'), who executed the authority of their Goa'uld master's. They only had as much power as their psychopathic Goa'uld leader had.

The fatal weakness for the Goa'uld and which ultimately led to their own defeat, despite their overwhelming power - was that they were so arrogant and complacent that they did not believe they could be defeated.

All it took was a handful of special forces people to destroy them, despite the stupendeous numbers they (the Goa'uld) had, they still lost everything eventually and it was all of their own fault and making.

But even 'special forces' can be shaken, and sometimes almost defeated completely. This happens many times during the series to SG-1.

The iris was made of pure titanium in the SG-1 series, and I think they changed it to another material at some point? And then it became an energy field in Stargate Atlantis - more advanced, but with different strengths & weaknesses.

Worm > hole. The human species having sex as a metaphor.

White holes exist, also.
