About Me

"People Suck" TN

"The light hasn't gone out, in spite of the knowing." Michael A.

"... But don't worry, cause I am leavin'... And don't worry, cause your thoughts aren't clear... And I'm thinkin' about you!... And your brother won't be found!... And you've stopped, and you've stopped, and you've stopped,..caring... But don't worry, cause I am leavin'..." James Graham

"But, I always say, the absence of evidence is not the the evidence of absence. Simply because you don't have evidence that something does exist does not mean that you have evidence that something doesn't exist... Well, what I'm sayin' is that there are known knowns and that there are known unknowns, but there's also unknown unknowns - things that we don't know, that we don't know." ... Gin Rummy

For a minute there I thought you were gonna hit me with, "lock and load"... Brock Sampson...The NIGHT, is still YOUNG!... The Phantom Limb

... And I, I'm feeling distant from myself ... I'm walking tired and out of breath. This is my way, I must confess... I must confess, I'm growing colder by the day. It doesn't matter what you say, I must confess." Shawn Smith
