It's odd, but the older one gets, the faster time seems to go. As a kid, everything is just too far ahead, but I find now, aged 50, although feeling no different than when I was 17-18, everything seems to come round a bit quicker. It's an odd phenomenon, believe me. My generation is an odd one - take the music, for instance. The first music I really loved was Punk: I was a few years younger than it's target audience (I was 13 in 1976, when it all kicked off), but I had the records. I still have those records, and they still play. Punk was short-lived, and by 1978, was all but over, with the then 'Johnny Rotten' leaving the Sex Pistols in January, and never using that name ever again, preferring his real name, John Lydon, and forming the ever wonderful P.I.L. Hmm. Seemed to have wandered a bit... I think what I'm trying to articulate here, is that my generation is possibly the first not to have what I'd call 'Old fashioned' people.
By this, I mean people who are not bewildered by technology, or faint if somebody says 'Cunt' on television, or would be horrified at all the wonderful pictures of delicious girls in the nip on this great site. As I said before, I'm 50, but get excited by new, alien ideas. I have read comics since I was five, and still do, when I get the chance (favourites are Hellboy/B.P.R.D., Preacher, The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen, The Filth, Steampunk, Danger Girl, The Coffin, Powers, and early Spawn). Trouble is, there's never enough time...
