Debbie Downer




Thom Yorke - Hearing Damage

I have posted this song before, but it has more meaning over the last 10 months.

"They wanna push you off the path
With their frequency wires
[...]
They say you’re getting better
But you don’t feel any better
[...]
You wish you felt better
You wish you felt better
[...]

You can do no wrong
In my eyes"

Reminds me of the call when my father was on life support and the paramedics indicated they had a heart beat. At that point there seemed to be hope. Wish you felt better.

We all have our faults but love seems to cover up those faults.

I find it amazing how sometimes we find our world very connected, and we quote "small world", this small rock flying through the universe. In our world a small task can seem like a mountain. Our perception of time seems like an eternity when we are young, and a second when we are old. With 4 billion people, there are very few people that are influential in your life, and when you lose 1 of those few people it feels like you are drifting a million light years away from Earth.












This poster hangs in my office, dated with the album release July 8th. The cover depicts King Canute failing to command the ocean. A reminder that we need to learn to accept the things we have no control over.
