You would've liked the stadium – it was the Expos first year there. Call me nostalgic, but I think they should still play a few games in Montreal every year – I know I'd hop a train there.

Offline Speaking of old stadiums, get a load of this…
It's the old Hilltop Park back in 1908 where the NY Highlanders (later renamed Yankees) played. They used to allow SRO on the field!

*crying* I lost my cellphone, but that's not important. I got a new one and I recovered my phone number.
But I lost my little and beautiful Yellow Submarine that I had hanging from it. *massive sobs* My submarine… *sob sob sob sob* Awwwwwwwww….. *cries*

Offline Lol, the Expos. Who on earth chose those awful colors?
Beware Of Darkness …you know what’s weird? That there are no guidelines for life. A, perhaps weak, example would be one of my friends who sort of makes up stories about his romantic life and the players that exist within it. I believe that it’s all in his head, he’s created these fabricated scenarios and that’s how he lives his life, but no one is going to tell him to stop doing it. Even though it’s not real to anyone but himself, that’s how he gets by and no one is going to say boo about it.
It just seems like such a waste though. Why live out your life seeking an unattainable character most likely fashioned from a Harlequin or Danielle Steel novel when you can find someone real.
Maybe you need to lie to yourself though, I’ve stopped watching tv and have been meditating daily and I’m just in my head all the time which really frustrates and angers me sometimes, so maybe I need the tv just to let my mind drift into a comfortable nothingless for a while. I like to paint and play music to release, but sometimes it’s hard not to look at the page or hear myself and think “god I suck!”
I think it’s hard to avoid darkness if you’ve woken up to a completely backwards reality like the one we live in today, maybe we need a little of the darkness to keep us sane. If the opposite of darkness is light, and light means real truth, isn’t discovering that real truth usually a daunting experience? It’s pushing down all barriers, “no bullshit” for the Yoko fans, and most of us don’t want to go there. I feel like following the light is much more difficult than lying to yourself in darkness.
If my friend realizes how miserable his life is, isn’t that him seeing the light? If he sees the light, he has two options, either a) man up and better himself or b) ….I don’t know, jump off a bridge? I’m not trying to be cynical but seriously, what else could the second option be? Keep lying to yourself until when? When does the cycle end and how do you respond when that cycle is broken? I mean in real life, not some mumbo jumbo, in real life where you have real emotions like pain and misery and lonliness.
How did John deal with his real emotions? He screamed, that was the only thing that worked. Think about that, having so much pain that all you can do is scream.
I don’t know, eventually I want to bask in the glory of the light, but when you are actually going through your mind and are mentally trying to clear out the clutter, it’s hard not to keep yourself in the dark, even just a little. It’s those tough times that make me eternally grateful for my love of music because it’s such an easy and beautiful escape.
Sorry, had to rant, that’s probably not what George meant but that’s how I interpreted it.

Offline Don't apologize for the rant, Gnik. In my eyes, your rants get raves. Very well written, as usual.
Everybody has some form of release – if they don't, they should. Who is to say that one person's form of release is right or wrong? I used to know a guy who would tie a pillow to a post in his basement and beat the crap out of it. Silly? Maybe to some. But to me, I always thought it was better he beat up a pillow rather than take out his anger on a person.
This world might be a better place if more people did that.

Offline Zig – that last line is priceless. How many people have committed violent crimes, been caught, and ask for forgiveness because “I was mad and I wasn’t thinking straight”? Too many to count. If people all had a form of release, all these violent crimes that people regret so soon after doing would be done away with. The world would be a better place.

But I found this version of I Feel Fine of the Ventures, and I think the intro feedback sampled.
