it's not really fair

not much happening in here, so i dare post another video. it's called 'just like a woman' (dylan cover). in the chorus we learn the song's recipient "aches just like a woman", despite being told right at the beginning "nobody feels any pain". in another song we are told ophelia spends her time peeking into desolation row even though her eyes are fixed upon noah's rainbow. sometimes i wish i wasn't a thinking person, so i could just enjoy the songs like everybody else. i don't think it's all that fair, you know.

lolol... yet, it's so you, g 8) :)

I'll listen to the song later, when I can take it all in... for now, I need to get off here with an overwhelming to-do project needing completion.

how interesting that your murderous attack is directed only at Thomas Dylan, the well-known poet and football player, when the most blatant parasox is Leonard Cohen, an American folk singer, who is charging ticket prices as follows for his upcoming concerts

New York $500
New Jersey $499
New Potatoes $5 per bag
New Age 6 Fairies

and yet in an unrecorded ditty of his so-called "Bird On The Wire" he claims

"I have tried in my way to be free".

Well, try harder, Missus. That's what I says anyways.

i don't know what the prices are, or if this is a joke. is five hundred dollars an awful lot? maybe there are cheaper seats, maybe you looked at the most expensive ones. i'm afraid i know nothing about finance. when i buy groceries and supplies at shops in the town i just buy what i need; i don't see the prices at all, but i know that poor people do have to be careful. leonard has nothing to do with ticket prices, i think. that's probably fixed by the management side. it's all to do with economics. the cost of hiring a hall in new york is certainly high, so that would make the tickets expensive, i would imagine. so you have to be fair with leonard, because he is not a person who 'rips people off' - as people who speak slang would say. -geoffrey

would you have such a b9 attitude if it was your nesmisis, Thomas Dylan? Point well made, Fish (sister of the famous tennis player, Mardy Fish)
