Check out this clip of Krist Novoselic deeply mouth kissing both David Grohl and Kurt Cobain. I had always heard this was some big joke, but this is the first time I've actually seen it. This happened at the end of their first big break through on Saturday Night Live, undoubtedly an incredibly emotional moment for them all. As if they would 'joke' or posture at such an emotional time for them. Don't forget, they went from the literal gutters of Aberdeen/Seattle to rock icon millionaires in a matter of what must have seemed like weeks to them. What would sear that realization more finally/certainly into their minds than finishing a live appearance on Saturday Night Live in New York City, and hearing those famous closing saxophones? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmChF_OfAjc&feature=related You see Cobain start to go into a narcoleptic collapse right afterward, btw. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-xxmC9Tjc8&feature=related in the above video, even Courtney Love's attorney thinks he wasn't suicidal and that the suicide note was forged. this one mentions that Courtney Love was the daughter of the manager of the band that became the Grateful Dead http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuQdKjDRB7s&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7JTAD0ZeKmQ&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sn4bmg17vwg&feature=related http://www.oldhandbills.com/images/060915-Albert/Grateful_Dead-Steal_Your_Face- Card.jpgblue/red , electricity applied to head, skull http://photo.sing365.com/music/picture.nsf/Grateful-Dead-Skeletons-From-the-Closet- Cover/48256C71003578A24825696100122D14/$file/Skeletons.jpg rose http://www.vinylzart.com/images/AlbumCovers-GratefulDead-AmericaBeauty(1970).jpg rose http://www.univie.ac.at/Anglistik/easyrider/data/graphics/GratefulDeadShakedownStreet.gif hookers, bikers, drugs http://political-analysis.org/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/.pond/dead-album.jpg.w560h559.jpg skulln'Bones, mushrooms, wings http://i6.tinypic.com/73bt4e1.jpg Golden Gate Bridge, most famous 'suicide' site in America.

In the mid 1800's the railway magnates built a network of Canadian and American rail hotels, some of which were owned by CN Rail (a governent/crown corporation) and some of which were owned by the private corporation CP Rail, as well as American railroad companies. Today all of them are owned by British Columbia Investment Management Corporation, including the Fairmont Olympic Hotel in Seattle , and the Banff Springs Hotel, in Banff, Alberta, Canada (near Calgary), among others: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairmont_Hotels airmont Hotels & Resorts is a Toronto, Ontario -based operator of luxury hotels and resorts. Currently, Fairmont operates properties in 14 countries including Canada, the United States, Mexico, Bermuda, Barbados, United Kingdom, Monaco, Germany, Switzerland, Egypt, Kenya, Tanzania, the United Arab Emirates and Singapore. Fairmont is known in Canada for its famous historic hotels and resorts such as the Empress Hotel (Victoria) and Hotel Vancouver in British Columbia, the Royal York in Toronto, Banff Springs in Alberta and Château Frontenac in Quebec. Many of these hotels were originally built by the Canadian Pacific Railway in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. As such, they were operated by Canadian Pacific Hotels and Resorts until CP Hotels purchased Fairmont in 1999 and changed its name to Fairmont Hotels and Resorts. The name change reflected the new international focus of the company. Fairmont's portfolio also includes several other landmark and icon properties including Plaza Hotel in New York, the Savoy Hotel in London and the Peace Hotel in Shanghai, which is currently under- going an extensive renovation. History The original Fairmont was built in 1907 in the city of San Francisco following the earthquake of 1906. It was later acquired by Benjamin Swig in 1945. The Fairmont chain consisted of seven properties in the United States when it merged with Canadian Pacific Hotels & Resorts in 1999: * The Fairmont (San Francisco) * The Fairmont, New Orleans (formerly Grunewald) * The Fairmont Copley Plaza (Boston) * The Plaza (New York) * The Fairmont Chicago * The Fairmont Dallas * The Fairmont San Jose In early 2006, after a contentious bidding war started by investor Carl Icahn. Icahn lost the bid and Fairmont agreed to be sold for $3.9 billion USD. Fairmont announced on January 30, 2006 that the company will be purchased by Colony Capital, LLC and Kingdom Hotels International. As a result of that purchase, Fairmont Hotels & Resorts is now a subsidiary of Fairmont Raffles Hotels International (FRHI). At the time of the purchase, FRHI also owned Delta Hotels & Resorts; however, Delta was sold on October 2, 2007 to bcIMC (British Columbia Investment Management Corporation). http://img.groundspeak.com/waymarking/display/1bdeeb4f-283b-4357-9cde-9e9952e0d9f4.jpg Fairmont Olympic Hotel, Seattle http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/ac/BanffSpringHotel1929.jpg/200px- BanffSpringHotel1929.jpg Banff Springs Hotel, October, 1929 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frances_Farmer Life after hospitalization On March 23, 1950, at her parents' request, Farmer was paroled back into her mother's care.

Second Street, and worked part-time as a maintenance man at the Polynesian Inn Resort at Ocean Shores to pay the rent.
