Hey, does anyone else remember the 80s German techno-punk song "Fred 
from Jupiter"?

"Fred vom Jupiter,
der Traum aller Frau'n,
du machst mich schwach.
Fred vom Jupiter,
Fred vom Jupiter,
bleib für immer hier,
geh doch nicht fort. "

Someone quoted Cobain's lyrics to "something in the way."  I don't 
think Cobain bought that line he quoted about "they haven't any 
feelings" in fact I think he had a very difficult time with his own 
feelings.  I think he felt like a fish.

Keith Richards said that heroin was a good way to insulate one's self 
from unpleasantness...

So I would like to take a vote.  Keith Richards is 59 years old. 
Have y'all seen him on those magazine covers promoting the Stones 
current tour, holding that tele with his shirt all the way 
unbuttoned, his chest exposed in it's weathered glory... what do you 
think about that?

I think it's great.  Rock on Keith!

Cobain said "I hope I die before I turn into Pete Townshend" --
see but he should have been thinking about Keith Richards instead.

Maybe Kurt couldn't get past the bisexual guitar smashing parallel 
between himself and Pete...

anyway, so Rudy, I have issues AND an agenda?  Only you could say so 
in a way that feels completely flattering.  Nice.
