Another quote

And speaking of yahoo IDs and fav quotes, I used to have a line from the Pink Floyd song "Wish u were here" on a now-defunct yahoo profile. It went:

"...did you exchange...a walk-on part in a war; for a lead role in a cage?"

Here's the lyrics of the entire song:

WISH U WERE HERE

"So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
Blue skys from pain.
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here. "



Brilliant as the poetry is, it still doesn't convey the impact the music does. The guitar is magic in this number. If u're 1 of those unfortunate souls who haven't heard (heard as in tripped out/blissed out on-) Floyd, drop whatever u're doing, go out and buy their albums.

Light a reefer, inhale (unlike Clinton)- and LISTEN to the music.

Jeez, what am I doing?....32 yrs. old superannuated pseudo-hippie "daaktar-saab"advising junta to do what any normal curious youth wld've done in college. Guess its for the benefit of those who missed out on the sex-drugs-rock 'n' roll for 1 reason or the other.

U listening, Junior? Go out and DO IT!
