i looked this up because i was remembering it wrong.
i thought it was "do not go gentle into that dark night" and "rage against the dying of the moon" for some reason.
that was a little confusing because the moon has a rebirth and i was wondering what the author's point was.
amicus, if that's actually a valid critique, I'm screwed
Nothing I write late at night after downing half a dozen beers is valid. ;-)
I think the soldiers in WWI were far more disillusioned and bitter than Vietnam vets,
I agree. I know war period is nasty, but the trench warfare so many suffered through in WWI was nightmarish. It's a wonder any of the survivors remained sane.
after his long battle with cancer tony snow died today age 53 he left a wife and 3 children my thoughts are with him and his family...
The guy was the biggest whore one could imagine
Interviews with Scott McClellan were pretty interesting after the release of his book was announced. Who knows what Tony Snow might eventually have revealed if his health had been better. Sometimes people make bad decisions for good reasons. Hell, some of us here became Witnesses with the best intentions.
rule one:.
if you pull into my driveway and honk you'd better be delivering a. package, because you're sure not picking anything up.. .
rule ten:.
Be very afraid. It takes very little for me to mistake the
sound of your car in the driveway for a chopper coming in over a rice
paddy near Hanoi .
I love it.
I think you are going a bit overboard, but I'm ok with rules 1,2,3,5,7 and 9.
-Another father with daughters
i was watching an interview with a black american recently about barrack obama.
interestlingly he said that black americans find it hard to claim him as one of their own.
he said that black people would much prefer to have someone who is from the stereotypical upbringing of a black american to be the presidential candidate.
ultra-liberal
I don't think such a beast exists any longer. I remember reading a piece about Nixon a while ago, the author suggested that if Nixon was judged by todays standards he would be considered a Liberal.
Obama is conservative to moderate. We live in a time when extreme right wing conservatives make policy. I think the long view serves best when discussing politics.
under copyright law, any song can be legally covered, as long as the proper fee is paid.
so that means i could release versions of kingdom songs?
that would be kind of funny.
Why would you do so? Nothing comes to mind that I really would care to hear again.
have to admit he has a point.
Yep, I admit it...he had a point. But the time he lived in was probably suckier than ours. Another 100 years and we are all probably going to say, "Damn, remember when JD quoted Descartes to us"?.

Shouldn't poetry be timely though?
If the meaning is so obscure that we are lost before we even begin to consider it, what's the point?
this thread has probably been 'done' a million times before but as i am fairly new to the forum i would like to ask (quite seriously)......... if you still beleive in god do you also still believe in paradise on earth?.
my friend has realised that it's not the truth.....not sure whether her belief in the above will change though.. thenks bbinkss.
Paradise on Earth
Logic tells me no,
emotion says yes.

I think maybe one reason I dislike being read to
Yeah, but there is a groove that can be achieved by just listening. It takes focus, and good subject matter...but most of that is new to us x's.
for those of you that don't know me in person and think im a hateful grump, well that is not the real me.. .
the real me is a friendly,sociable person.
the real me likes to talk with people and laugh.. .
Well Amicus, you could be right about that. We could all be the proverbial springs wound too tight by JWism, just waiting to pop off and bounce off some walls
We both know most of us don't fall into this category, but some do.
