> > > > > > You are responding to me on some level, and to the extent it is worth it you do bring about a part of discussion. But sitting on the fence between lack of thought and blind acceptance, as you call that which you do not comprehend, bullshit, is another thing. God gave us language for ourselves to use it, not to squander it. God gave us thought and senses for ourselves to exercise them. Combining the two may lead to some divine discussion, even if, at the end you still conclude your first impressions hold true for you. But we can't know differences if we live in one dimension. Maybe it is media, the fast-paced high tech environment of so much information that we accept we know it all, or all we need. But, as ignorant as any generation in the important things, we remain. Maybe Jim's life with mine, brought about a challenge to ourselves, and also to you. Maybe it is a challenge that you might benefit from. Jim's past telling lies in his life but you must understand that people tell lies not to be denigrated in some reputational hell, but to survive in an unsavory set of circumstances. As Jim the elder and the younger agree, lying is overrated as a vice. We should not fear the lies as much as our inabilities to see the truth. That is all that I am trying to say. Now, as for Surf's Up. The first time I heard it, I really loved the song until he got to the part of drowning in the bottomless sea. Then I put a frown on for the whole rest of the song. I still feel high anxiety with that line, but I try to put it aside for the other parts of it. It is a beautiful song, with erotic overtones, about more than what you read into it, and definitely not an unrequieted situation. Where it is seen in your mind as something one-sided, may be your projecting your own experiences onto it, for what the song meant to you. But, the song is about two who are deeply in love, with one who is approaching a level of growth that has uncertainties, not really knowing if he will get what he wants, and working so hard to attain it. I remember a time when Jim and I had such a circumstance. In some ways we still do. I remember moments that I hear in this song, and I also hear moments that have not yet come. As panoramic as a love song can be, this one is. It is full-dimensional, full emotion, and yes, fully sexual too. > However. On listniong to surfs up. It is erotic.
