I spent most of my day lamenting the fact that i wasn't around when bands like the blood brothers and cap'n jazz played (and yes, i do know they are back together. but its not the same).

i hope to whatever god you subscribe to that you never have the misfortune of having to attend a school that requires you to dress and act a certain way. it's one of the greatest evils of the modern world that human beings are having their individuality erased and their minds reprogrammed by self-righteous officials who claim to hold the moral high-ground. on such a note, i would like to add that i am in a state of entirely warrented ecstasy over the court decisions in california over the past few weeks regarding gay rights. sexual deviancy shouldn't be treated like a crime.

also, i recommend highly the album "People Without End" by an emo band called Tiny Hawks. Excellent music, great lyrics, and a technicality that seems far-out considering its a two-peice band. i'll post a download link when i find one.
