What Would You Do If You Were Bono For One Day

Isn't it sad we will all be forgotten one day?

"Our generation passeth away, and another generation cometh; but the earth abideth forever... The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose... (1)

Understand. You cannot hold on forever. I don't know why you would want to stay here for eternity, you have to do what you can and move on. Don't grip something that's not what it was, it's gone and you must move on. Let go, "cause there's beauty in the breakdown" (2).

to be honest, I find no comfort in remembrance. I try not to be concerned with other's views of me in this life, so why should I change in the next. I am who I am b/c of me and my actions; not b/c of others conceptions of those acts. Try to look closer at what makes you important now, and maybe you can reconcile your fear of death.

Just How lame is Bono?

i can;t understand it . he works for charity, he's all about helping which i agree with but I'd love to kick the **** out of him . theres something so annoying and smarmy there. he gives me the willies

Why is Bono, the lead singer of U2, called this way?

Per http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bono:During his childhood and adolescence, Bono and his friends were part of a surrealist street gang called "Lypton Village". Bono met one of his closest friends, Guggi, in Lypton Village.[27] The gang had a ritual of nickname-giving. Bono had several names: first, he was "Steinhegvanhuysenolegbangbangbang",[27] then just "Huyseman", followed by "Houseman", "Bon Murray", "Bono Vox of O'Connell Street", and finally just "Bono".[4] "Bono Vox" is an alteration of Bonavox, a Latin phrase which translates to "good voice". It is said he was nicknamed "Bono Vox" by his friend Gavin Friday. He initially disliked the name; however, when he learned it translated to "good voice", he accepted it. Hewson has been known as "Bono" since the late 1970s. Although he uses Bono as his stage name, close family and friends also refer to him as Bono, including fellow band members.[4]

Is Bono a modern-day Prophet?

Well, let's remember what the word prophet means. Old Testiment prophets comminicated on a 2-way basis with God. He put the words in their mouths and the desire in their hearts. For nearly 30 years, Bono has written songs that in one way or another were inspired by God... either through Biblical passages or through Bono's own walk with God as a Christian. He then communicates his beliefs very fearlessly to politicians, world leaders, religious leaders and other powerful figures in order to achieve a more livable planet.

I think that Bono is a very good example of what Christianity should be and often times isn't. When the secular world hears the word "Christian" they usually cringe at the thought of this judgmental person condemning the world to hell for their unforgivable sins. Christ didn't preach judgment. He preached mercy and grace and love and kindness and most importantly, generosity. Bono personifies these qualities. He doesn't care if some people want to dismiss him and insult him for being involved. He doesn't care if his charitable work hurts his recording career. He cares about doing what's right because he feels God has instructed him to do so.

In short, if he's not a prophet, he's still the closest thing we have to one...

Where can I find a ghostwriter pro bono?

I will give you a proper answer. You don’t need a free ghostwriter. This is how it works.If you have an idea for a non-fiction book, this is what you do.Research comparables. What other books are out there like your idea? If there are any, how will yours be better? If there are none, why?Who is the audience for the book? You can’t say everyone. You need demographics and psycho-graphics. Research what those things are.Research literary agents and publishers who have done books in your genre and for your audience, be it “Yoga-Foodies” or “A Short History of Jazz”, whatever.Most ghostwriters are journalists or copywriters. Say a retired sports coach wants to tell his story, he probably knows sports writers, and he would make a deal with one. This is a very common practice.If it is a potentially high profile book, then the agent is going to want a say in who is the ghostwriter. I am familiar with a situation like this at the moment (political) and the agent is holding firm on getting a professional writer.Say your book is “A Short History of New Orleans Jazz”. You can research jazz magazines etc. This is not rocket science.Now this is what you do. You need to put together a package which will be a clear, concise presentation of the idea.your qualifications to write it (“I used to own a club in New Orleans, I knew everybody and have a notebook full of quotes. In fact Woody Allen promised me a blurb that’s not about incest.”)a sample chapter, preferably with period photos that you will need the rights to, and an outline of the rest of the book.a brief marketing plan (“Lips Larouche is a friend of mine, he has a new album coming out. We’re going to do a cross-promotion together on his next tour, I’m going to sit in the lobby and sell books before his gigs.”)This is where you make a deal with a journalist or copywriter you have researched to put together your sample chapter. Basically they do the initial work on spec, and if a publisher bites, they share in the advance and revenue. This is all negotiable. Or you can just write the writer a check, perhaps in stages as the work is completed.Nobody writes whole books for free except crazy novelists and we’re not talking about them.Nobody writes or publishes books “for a good cause”. They publish books in the hope they will be interesting and sell.Hope this helps.

Who is the better frontman Steven Tyler or Bono?

There is allot of Bono Hate here in RandP but I have to dismiss the possible bias from others in my decision.

Well I am not sure Bone is a better front man but Tyler's stage presence Grosses me out. Seriously, it makes me want to vomit when I see him perform. So I would rather see Bono preform.

I would much rather listen to U2 any day than Aerosmith. I am actually a big fan of the early U2 years. However, I would rather sit in Purgatory and hear Satan laugh at me for eternity than listen to Aerosmith for only one hour

What would you do if you came home to find rock superstar Bono ripping all the copper pipe and wire out of your home?

I’d probably feel exactly the same as I do every time I see and hear him begging me to donate to whichever charity bandwagon he has jumped upon this week.The guy’s personal fortune is in the hundreds of millions, if not billions. He goes to extraordinary lengths to avoid tax (and evades tax in the view of some people). He could easily solve whichever crisis he is promoting that day just by cutting a check. His only motivation is his own self-canonisation.

I need dentures but have no money or insurance. Does anyone know of an organization or a dentist who will do them pro bono in Louisiana?

I was in wreck in 2010 and was in the hospital for a year and 4 days. Yes I counted. I had to learn everything all over again. Anyway all the heavy drugs along with the dry mouth they gave me I have been losing teeth since. They don;t hurt they just break off. It would be nice to smile again without being embarrassed
