I cant think of a good title...

I think I had a good title, but I forgot. Well given as it's been a while since Ive updated you'd think I'd have alot to say. Which I do. But, as always, Im typing this from John's house cause I cant at my own, so as a result my "brain smahts" are choking up and I dont know what's good enough to spend time and say. I guess Taylor took one of the good idea's by saying that he, John, Ryan, and I went to see Ralph's band down at the college and what have you. So that's out. I could also tell you that I had deje vu' just now, but there's nothing much to say about that. God, Im a loser. I need my damn permit and my damn drivin tests and damn stuff. Why cant I be better than I am? Ill tell you why; cause my dad beats me, thats why. No, my dad's a good guy. Old, but good. Confused, but good. My cold still hasnt left me. The one that Taylor gave me over a week ago. It's getting better, but I still hate him. Anyway, Ill try to do more of this later, I apologize for wasting your time.

Free-form Jazz update!

I had a whole other update for that title, but it didnt have anything to do with Jazz. It was just a free-form update. Kind of like this one, only this one wont be nearly as long or obnoxious. Why? Cause I dont really have anything that I feel like typing. I have to do this from John's computer so it's not as personal if I typed alot here. I guess the only good thing I have to say is that Ive decided to get my permit/do driving lessons very soon. Ive saved up alot of money over the summer from doing painful physical labour and I dont feel like waiting much longer. Not for any particular reason, but I dont have alot going on right now so I might as well. That is all.

"The Face of God"

"I am convinced as many people are that we all have divine origins and that essentially everything is divine," he said. "We all come from the one, we all are in the one and we can never be apart from each other and the one. This is the personal conviction. It all comes down to the intellectual game in the end if you start to consider truth, goodness and beauty which are probably the essential attributes of what we consider to be God. If something is really true, it has to be beautiful. And music is beautiful, so it has to be true. God is the most beautiful of all the beautiful and the source of all beauty, so music has to be intimately acquainted with God in some way."

- John Mclaughlin

I thought that was a pretty interesting thing he said, of which I agree with. Anyway, that's all I got for now.
