Um...hyperbole is my bread and butter, even my fucking definition has "HUMAN" in it. Not universal extremes.

I thought you were an editor, Eagle Eye?
Human beings are products of a quantum universe. Acknowledge it, lepton.
Sophistry*. I'm using this term in a cultural sense, and you know it.



*in fact, I think you just cubed the sophistry shifty.
You're falling back on culture as a justification for flabby thinking.

Man, I can't win for losing. The "Mick Inner Circle" think I hate Mick because I like some Clash II songs. The GEER people down me for liking LC more. The LC diehards want to purge me because I still think GEER kicks ass. I can't coin an awesome phrase without the Canadian Crypto-grammar Fascists coming down on me...

What's a poor little Gutter Poet to do?

I suppose listen to the Clash.

Now that this is one a new page, let us ignore the previous GNDA and keep it to birthday wishes for Jonesy.

True dat. The guy's left is mark on multiple genres and is still having fun on the job. And I repeat my claim that the first two BAD albums in their own way stand up against anything the Clash did.

Happy Birthday Mick. You play an awfully swell guitar.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.
