just plain strange

Sort of related to my comments yesterday about the Obama and Daniels signs in the same yard: Anyone else weirded out that AC/DC has paired with Wal-Mart to distribute their latest CD? That's the only place you can get it. Wal-Mart. And Sam's Club. What's next: Disney's going to buy Family Guy and let Seth MacFarlane go as far as he wants with it? Show "When You Wish Upon a Weinstein" between Hannah Montana and one of their other kiddie shows (I'd throw out another example but since I cannot distinguish between Nickolodeon and Disney shows, I'd just embarrass myself. Don't the Jonas Brothers have a show? Then there's something about the Sweet (Suite?) life of Zach and Cody? I could be wrong. So I won't go there).

I'm just asking. I know AC/DC was on Tipper Gore's shit list in the 80s, and conservative groups across the country were convinced they worshipped Satan. Now they're being plugged by Wal-Mart? Has Focus on the Family started a boycott yet? They haven't had press for a while; looks like a good time for them to step up and make their ugly voices heard again. And they're missing it. James Dobson must be going senile.
