Maybe it's because Richard writes fabulous, intelligent, songs, but he doesn't give a shit about a hook. Some of his tunes <i>have</i> got great hooks, but he treats them like accidents. Also, he does have a fairly strong accent, which maybe makes it a little hard for Merkins to follow.

I dunno. The guy's a global treasure. I guess I like the fact that you can still see him in a medium-sized venue.

Occasionally, I think that if I had whacked my kids a little more, they would have had fewer problems with authority growing up. And then I think a little more, and figure that their problems with authority probably resulted from their observing my problems with authority, and no amount of coercion was likely to erase that observation.

Kids are a crapshoot. You try to guide them, and model good behavior, and they go ahead and grow up anyhow. Myself, I decided that I didn't want to act towards them in ways that would make me feel like an asshole, although I even failed at that sometimes. It's really a fucking mystery.

I am quoting this from Barbara's thread here instead of in said thread because I have just had a revelation...

"Suzanne Somers said that she feels diet and household toxins may have "electrified" Adam Lanza's brain."

At last I know beyond an angstrom of reason what the hell is wrong with our country. I don't know what we can do about it, but perhaps by naming our demon, we can begin eradicating it. Ready? It's a two part-er.

1. The US, as a country, HAS TOO MANY FUCKING "CELEBRITIES".

2. Because they are celebrated people, too many otherwise regular Americans citizens give credence to the feces like dribblings that fall from the mouths of these ridiculous famewhores.

I have spoken.
