Me and some of my friends use this word, "titanico", to mean a personal accomplishment. Like I lost a few pounds on my diet in the past week; that's a titanico. I snuck up on the Metra train and got the name of the conductor who threw my brother off the train; that's a titanico.

It is a weak man who tries to diminish another's titanicoes through weak rumors and murmuring. That is what we saw this summer with the so-called self-proclaimed "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth" when they were trying to diminish John Kerry's titanicoes of winning medals during the Viet Nam War. Does anyone really think these guys are heroic or something for this partisan sniping, or that they themselves deserve recognition of a titanico for it?

And yet we see the same sort of behaviour from the Beatlist propagandists and rock establishment traditionalists, attempts to diminish the titanicoes that Oasis has earned and are still earning. Oasis is the John Kerry of rock music, and the Beatlists are the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth.
