this isn't important

this really doesn't mean much of anything and such because i don't know what the hell i'm talking about but does anyone else think that it sounds like dennis leary saying:

"it's not a war on drugs, it's a war on personal freedom is what it is, okay? keep that in mind at all times, thank you"

because he says okay all the time and it just really sounds like him...

if this was discussed or stated somewhere else at one point in time, i'm truly sorry....

sort of

Re: this isn't important

All of the spoken word excerpts from the beginning of the song are from comedian Bill Hicks, a friend of the band and drawn in the CD artwork for the album. Check 'im out if you haven't heard of him.

Bill Hicks also says okay? a lot. S'a common speech problem, such as saying "like" and "or something" our culture seems to have developed. I say problem becuase they're as annoying as hell.

Dennis Leary often lifted from Bill's material. If you listen to Leary's No Cure for Cancer alot of Bill's images are used. But it is the great Bill on 3rd eye. Leary was just angry; Bill had vision.
