Is this song, kinda like Schism? Like a sequel? It kinda comes from the same place, maybe The Pot, is the other being blamed. Pointing fingers, tossing stones? This song is still sinking in for me. This albums really taking a while to 'whoa' me. That's partly because I don't have a decent sound system, or hearing ability, but also because I think Maynard definately draws inspiration from his life, but still within a professional context of really instramenting his vocals. To me, his voice is the fourth instrament. So, I don't want to delve too much into literate town, because I am really more often than not, blown away by some of the vocal performances on this album. It's a compliment. But also, I just wanted to make some dots and connect 'em and throw 'em in the bank. Next song!

Whoa, I misspelled. That defines me. That says alot about me. It could even be my epitath. My powder white body starched firmly in a mirrored casket with that generic dirge music playing, and old bags I fucked years ago just sitting there, waiting to pass me by and kiss my cold hands...flash forward a sixblock drive later to the the memory garden, and there it will be. My tombstone. Here Lies A Man Who Couldn't Get The Word Instrument Right One Time In A Message Board. One Motherfucking Time. It Was Too Much. But He Had The Satisfaction Of Realizing the Thing That Called Him Out On It Was AMAZED By It. Wow. Here's A Ball, Perhaps You'd Like To Bounce It.

hai, spellings never the eschew.

when people speak i don't care if they're spelling the words right in their head, but i did say a few times last week, 'spell that for me, you know, so i can grasp the usage within this context of which we are barely speaking here.' or something like that...

the whole time i was pondering the pot.

hai inner, aloha rolo.
