Swell- Thomas Cunningham

Awesome song I just found on my iTunes. You know how they give you some free songs when you first download it? Well, this song came automatically on it and you know something, it's pretty damn good! So check it out. In fact, search it on your iTunes. I bet it's already on there.

The lyrics I liked especially were...

"Take that all from me, oh and/Try to call me free oh and/Strip me all I know and/Then turn to let me go/False ripples in all the intellectual pools/Fathom the facts that turn talking heads on their stools/Schools corrupt the mind/And waste my precious time, oh/Where's the value, value when you just don't need that kind/I'd sayWhere's the value, value when you just don't need that kind?"

I probably like this part becasue I've been reading too much Emerson... and Thoreau... and Fuller. But whatever, the Transcendentalist movement of the individual shouldn't die just because they did. All the hippies that treat Walden Pond as their personal mecca know what I'm talking about.

Anyway, it's going to be a low key Saturday night. I've rented Eternal Sunshine from the library so I'll be content for the while.

Oh, yeah. Found this picture online. Thought it was pretty good. Certain "followers" of this blog will appreciate it, that is, if they don't already have it.
