And it's wrong...
Really strange up in my head
Some things are better left unsaid
I'll do you & you'll do me
We were better Enemies
And it's wrong...
You and I will live again
Things may just be better then
Somewhere between Sex & Sleep
And never the twain shall meet
And it's wrong...
What will be is what will be
I know you & you know me
You know I know myself, too
I know I'm long in the tooth
And it's wrong...

I had a dream the other night about Layne Staley. I was kicking it with him, Sean Kinney, and Jerry Cantrell. We all were walking around in a bright, sunny sky, and ended up going into an urban setting. The actual building we wound up at had a lot of spray-painted graffiti.
Layne decided he needed to shoot up. I guess he knew a guy there. I pretty much had to trust that he did, because I never saw it. Everybody in the immediate vicinity seemed to be "okay" with this, as they were used to it, but I reacted as I normally would.
I don't ever apologize for being who I am. If for some reason you can't handle that, then it's your loss. Layne had a hypodermic needle sticking out of his head.. I grabbed it, yanked it out, and started to say, "Buddy, if there's anything you need to talk about..."
"I DON'T want to fucking TALK ABOUT IT," he interrupted.
I quickly gauged the reaction of Sean and Jerry. Their eyes were darting about; as if to suggest that not only was this well-trodden ground within this particular company, but that they were also waiting to see how this scene was going to play itself out.
There was a few seconds where Layne's outburst dominated everyone. But some rock station was blasting through a nearby radio, and it happened to be playing "Paradise City" by Guns 'N' Roses. I rolled my eyes, sucked in a breath of air, and offered up my best Axl Rose impersonation. Layne busted up laughing, and so did everyone else in suit.
Then I'm walking down the street looking backwards at where I came from. I saw a school bus letting off children. Then I heard music, in the Alice in Chains style:
I want to live,
I want to be free --
I wanna destroy my noisy guitar
and sing in harmony
1. I'm sure we all know what your name is... so, tell us what your boss's name?
the Tao
2. Do you actually read your friend's surveys, or do you just copy paste them and fill them out yourself?
thanks, G.
3. Which is your favorite episode of "I Love Lucy"?
The one where they're married, but their beds are five feet apart. You know, because he's "colored."
4. Do you consider yourself a deep thinker?
think about my onscreen name
5. Name five colors you like?
color is frequency. Freqency is part of Inifinity. Infinity is part of me. How can I judge one part of me more favorable than another?
6. How many red shirts would you say you own, off the top of your head?
zero. I look dreadful in red.
7. No one cares whether or not you believe in love at first sight... but, do you believe in hate at first sight?
No one knows hate at birth. It is a taught emotion.
8. If you said yes to the last question, do you think that the reason you are so hateful and judgmental is because you didn't receive enough love when you were a child?
No, it's because the parents are misinformed about the nature of people in general. You can be misinformed while still effecting powerful love for your offspring. It's no more than a primitive phase in the evolution of societies.
9. Would you rather be tone deaf or color blind?
color blind, for sure.
10. When do you think is the proper time in a relationship to give the other person your business card?
Right after I run the sticky roller thing over my suit to collect any stray lent.
11. When you were a kid, which comic strip was your favorite?
Peanuts or the Far Side
12. You can only wear a sock on one foot for the rest of your life... which foot is it?
I reject this question, utterly.
13. How many words can you make out of the letters of your name?
too many
14. How do you feel about fake plants?
they're usually the most popular plants, while all the deep and intellegent plants sit in the corner of the greenhouse reading Star Trek novels.
15. What is your obsessive compulsion?
I don't know. Orgasm.
16. What do you think the odds are of the person who posted this before you becoming a rock star?
It wouldn't surprise me, but she probably would lose her ambition within minutes of toking up
17. Do you know what the heck the difference is between the statements "we're just dating" and "we're together"?
Yeah. One is a transaction -- food and material gifts for sex. The other is something the couple says to advertise their sexual claim to potential competitors. Yeah man, words are cheap.
18. When you think, do you see the words that you are thinking in your mind, as if they were being written down?
What I think very often cannot be contained by the limitations of the written English language.
19. If a person is brought up speaking both Spanish and English in equal amounts and equally fluent, which language do they think in?
I always wondered this, but about exchange students who learned the new language. Would they still think in their native tounge?
20. Does it make you uncomfortable when people ask you your shoe size?
Fuck no. 12. Make a poster.
21. Would you feel guilty about cheating on your taxes if you got away with it?
Research how the Federal Reserve and the Internal Revenue Service came into being, then ask me again.
22. You are walking on the beach when suddenly you find a genie lamp. You rub it, and out pops the genie. He proclaims that he is so thankful to you for letting him out after thousands of years that he gives you three wishes. What are your wishes?
i. Unconditional love between all members of humanity.
ii. Deep awareness of all that is for all members of humanity.
iii. That this lamp grant no more wishes. You are free.
23. If you had braces, would you put little diamonds on your brackets and call them your "grill"?
that's not how I roll.
24. You have 24 hours to live... what are you going to wear?!?!
nothing.
25. Which is worse... someone blowing cigarette smoke in your face, or kissing someone who has dip in their mouth?
I wouldn't kiss someone who chewed. Blecccch.
26. Had you ever answered any of these questions before?
Yes, but never in the context of a SG Survey.
27. Have you ever thought about getting your lip pierced?
Be who you are, but I won't be intentionally putting any holes in my body that I wasn't born with.
28. Who were you with last night?
All of you. Awwww.
29. What woke you up this morning?
A bizarre dream
30. Have you ever passed out on the bathroom floor?
I went blind on the shitter once for about 30 seconds.
