The only time I experience fully each fraction of a second is when yesterday doesn't matter and tomorrow won't come if I don't pay attention NOW! Those moments in most adrenaline sports are short-lived. But when you travel as a minimalist at 50 and 60 below those moments are continuous.

It'sBetterToPutYourFootDownThanNotToStandUpAtAll
"This #&%!$ sucks...I'd rather hear nothing!"

Me to this guy at my house (about an hour ago when a friend had another dood over who wanted us to hear his awesome music. You know, I try, I really do try to be openminded toward music, but there's some really weak chit out there that just doesn't strike a chord. And even then, I don't criticise. But tonight I broke down and told this dood I couldn't take it anymore...cause I couldn't, and wouldn't let him play another tune.

I'm so weak.
