Being in an industry where end-of-year bonuses are the norm, except at the company I work for.

Yes indeed. However, I'm remunerated above the going rate for my role so it is swings and roundabouts to some extent.

The odd trip interstate to "host clients" or overseas for a "conference" also add to the kickers/bonuses I get.

Got part of mine last week, pretty much a straight swap for a carton of Jacks and a 10 pack of Sommersby.

Every time someone puts one up on the roundabout near my house my son says to me "Look dad, someone's selling a garage".

Not at all, I'm huge Metallica fan. But by the time the Black Album came around Metallica IMHO had spent all their good creative capital. It's not a bad album by any means, but there are some songs with just rubbish lyrics, and Nothing Else Matters is just one example. It's not worth comparing to any of the other four albums that preceded it that had some great lyrics ("Kill' Em All" was a bit juvenile, but still cool in a teenage metalhead f**k you attitude kind of way). By the time 1990-1991 came around it seemed like Metallica (or Hetfield and Lars) had nothing really to say. The only upside was the 'groovier' production and the reemergence of the bass from "...Justice", although this doesn't outweigh the average lyrics and riffery.

I have all of Metallica's albums and I hate Nothing Else Matters because it's so overplayed. There's better and more enjoyable Metallica songs to listen too that are not thrashed to death.

Yep, good points. They've also written more heartfelt songs that aren't so overtly sappy (or commercial), such as "Fade to Black".
