Note: This reviw I also wrote on the iTunes music store review system. I wrote it as king_for_a_day.
American Idiot is an amazing album. I could stop there, but there is alot more to talk about. American Idiot has a good range of songs, ranging from the punky American Idiot to the slow Bouelvard of Broken Dreams. It is good value for money, with two songs going for longer than nine minutes. The song has a storyline following the adventures of the charater Jesus of Surburbia.
American Idiot is the introduction to the album, with Jesus of Surburbia being the introduction for Jesus of Surburbia. Jesus of Surburbia ("Jesus") decides to move to the city (Holiday) and has a great time. He starts to feel alienated despite the City's croud (Bouelvard of Broken Dreams-Are we the Wailing.) He then takes on a dual personality as Saint Jimmy (St. Jimmy.) He soon turns to drugs due to the pressures of a dual personality (Give me Novacane.) Then, he meets Whatshername (She's a Rebel) and the start dating (Extraordiary Girl.) They brake up (Letterbomb) and after a hard September (Wake Me Up When September Ends) he goes back home (Homecoming.) He is then left with memories of the city, and if he stayed with Watshername (Whatshername.)
This album is fantastic. If you just buy a single\one song you are missing out on HEAPS. Buy the whole thing.

Tommorow: Day one of our two day look at freeware.
The Vought F4U Corsiar was one of the first, and best carrier-borne aircraft of all time. It was intally equipped with machene-guns and bombs, but bombs, rokets and cannon where soon added. The Corsiar was intally deemed unsutible for carrier-bound operations, It was first flowen from land on Guadalcanal.
The Navy took it on, and was the main fighter in the last year of the Pacific war. The Corsiar was also used by the Marines.
The Corsiar was used in the Korean War, as a ground attack aircraft and some knocked out MiG-15's!
The Corsiar was a stable workhorse, that was inportant to the final victory in the Pacific.

Tommorw: The Vought Corsair
The US Fighters Series has been cancelled.Anyway, now more informal articles will be produced. The A-10 Thunderbolt IIThe A-10 Warthog is one of the best ever USAF anti-tank aircraft. After the USAF's exprence in Korea and Veitnam, they asked a company for a propose-desinged AT aircraft. The company
designed the Warthog.
The Warthog was first used in the First Gulf War. They where used as a anti-tank aircraft. They took many Iraqi tank casuties and shot down 6 helicopters with air-to-air missiles. They took on a simmilar job in the Second Gulf War.
The A-10 is armed with a leathal depleted uranimum cannon, which can kill a tank in one shot, from over four miles away. The A-10 also can be armed with missiles, "dumb" bombs and "smart" bombs.
They are expected to leave USAF service in 2010, but with updating, they are going to be around for alot longer.
