I never really understood the importance of the conductor. Between you and me, what the hell is this guy doing? Do you really need somebody waving a stick in your face to play the violin? Does that really help you out? I can see how we need him at the beginning, okay? Tap, tap, tap. Start! Okay. I could see how you need that. But once we're going, okay. Once it's all happening... what do we need him for then? I don't see the cellist looking up, "I'm confused. I don't know what to do." And the conductor goes, "Do this. Like this..." (impersonating a conductor) "Oh, ok, thank you. Thank you very much."

Guidance For Teenagers
18-12-2009
"Another possible source of guidance for teenagers is television, but television's message has always been that the need for truth, wisdom and world peace pales by comparison with the need for a toothpaste that offers whiter teeth *and* fresher breath."
Dave Barry, "Kids Today: They Don't Know Dum Diddly Do" - US columnist & humorist (1947 - )

Through My Words
16-12-2009
All your eyes have ever seen
All you`ve ever heard
Is etched upon my memory
Is spoken through my words
All that I take with me
Is all you`ve left behind
We`re sharing one eternity
Living in two minds
Linked by an endless thread
Impossible to break
Dream Theater
All your eyes have ever seen

Just Plain Scared
15-12-2009
I have this idea about why people do the terrible things they do. Same reason why kids push each other on the school yard. If you're the one doing the pushing then you're not going to be the one to be pushed. If you're the monster then nothing will be waiting in the shadows to jump at you. It's pretty simple, really. People do the terrible things they do, because they're scared.

Mr. Time
13-12-2009
Stealing a moment from Mr. Time
He rocks in his chair like a shiny dime
But it's all for show, all for show.
Wearing your name and a number or two
When the minute's up so are you
But everybody knows, everybody knows.
Watching the hour from the light in his eyes,
He waits for your soul to come in from sky
But it's lost below, lost below.
Turning the wheel of your destiny round,
When the motion stops - no more sounds,
Does anybody care, anybody care.
Where's the man, where's the child
Wrapped together side by side.
Who can tell you what to do,
When Mr. Time has come for you.
See the truth, hear the lies,
Can there be no compromise
And who can tell you what they knew,
When Mr. Time has come for you.
Is it a feeling or deja vu?
When he points his finger calling you
Is it illusion? Just an illusion
Picking up seconds that fall to his feet
He blows them away as rocks on his seat,
Cool as his smile, his smile.
Where's the man, where's the child
Wrapped together side by side.
Who can tell you what to do,
When Mr. Time has come for you.
See the truth, hear the lies,
Can there be no compromise
And who can tell you what they knew,
When Mr. Time has come for you.

The Gym
12-12-2009
See, to me, at the health club, you see all these people that are working out and they're training, getting in shape but strangely, nobody's really getting in shape for anything. The only reason that you're getting in shape is that so you can get through the workout.So we're working out so that we'll be in shape for when we have to do our exercise.This is the whole thing. The other thing I don't get is why we're so careful about locking up our dirty towels and smelly jockstraps. What exactly is the black market on these disgusting gym clothes? I'll give my car to any guy in front of a restaurant because he's got a short red jacket. "Yeah, he must be the valet guy." But my stinking putrefied gym clothes I got one of these locks you could put a bullet through it and it won't open. That Stuff is safe.
