I watched a show on it once, and if you think about it.........its hard shit.


Since we've already gone immensely offtopic:
English is by far the easiest language I've ever come across (especially compared to Greenlandic). Maybe not to understand completely with all the slang and expressions, but you can quickly make yourself clear in basic terms. Dutch, German, French and basically any other language are quite a lot harder, because they have more grammar rules and stuff.

English is pretty tough now that i think of it. We have so many cliches that we use all of the time.

Hm, I heard that English was the hardest because of all the exceptions to rules.

I'm stoked for the album closer, sounds kickin'!
"When looking up there, I just felt whole, like I belonged. Like one day I too would shine my most brilliant. Sitting there also made me think about sitting through services at my little country church back home. About that never-changing congregation of the same sixty-seven people and everyone has known you since before you were born. Now, out here in the real world, everything just seemed more vivid than when I used to sit in that little pew. That pew that was now so, so far away from where I was. I feared I had somehow left God behind there, too. I feared he was somehow just sitting there, saving my seat on the fifth pew from the front row, just waiting on me to come back. I left so quickly, I worried that he may not have noticed I was gone. And, now, I’m just too far away to find. So he’s just sitting there, patiently waiting on me to come back. I closed my eyes and prayed a moment. I hoped more than anything that he could still hear me." -an excerpt from my novella, A Sea of Fallen Leaves.

I think Michael Jackson said it best when yelling out "beat it!!!" and wearing one glove.

You know he sings back up on a few tracks, too, don't you?

wrong Michael Jackson. The Michael Jackson on the album is actually a former gong player from the university of Alabama. He does wear a white glove, but only because of a freak accident which occured back in his university days.

To be completely honest with you if OLP had a song on their new album called "The Impeachment of Howard D. Shrub" I would be ecstatic.

That song would have to be completely nuts :nod:
