Just watcing the Today Show now... ABC, NBC, and CBS are doing a simulcast on sept. 5 to do a fund raiser to raise money for cancer. katie couric, brian williams, and charles gibson are on now talking about it. anyway during a promo spot, which i'm sure will air on all the networks, i heard those unmistakable strums of the uke! the theme is "stand up against cancer" or something to that effect. the promo has a nice chunk of the song with ed singing "rise up!"
My favorite Pearl Jam song: "Corporate Greed Boat Asshole Behind a Counter in the Oval Office"

    I don't want to be hostile. I don't want to be dismal. But I don't want to rot in an apathetic existance either.

    And no one sings me lullabyes
    And no one makes me close my eyes
    So I throw the windows wide
    And call to you across the sky....

    Crazy thing today ...... I heard this on the Today show right before work, I walked in and one of my employees told me he had been diagnosed with prostate cancer. Not only that but later in the afternoon another one of my employees mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. I`ve never been so close to cancer ..... even when it`s not you it is a scary word to hear
