Name:
Location: Okinawa (Normally Thrilling Thiells), NY, Japan

I am a cool laid back cat that like to be all hip on the fun spots in big cities (I know hot spots in N'orleans and learned of alot in NY). I love to travel and meet new people and just chat for hours as if we are old reunited friends. I am also heavily into movies and AFI's 100. I might want to become a film historian or something like that. I LOVE baseball!! I just cant get enough of it, and there is plenty here in Japan.

New Music.

I have to quote something I heard Ron say from the Ron and Fez show about a few months ago when talking about music. He said that most people will discover new movies and books, yet will still listen to BTO like it came out yesterday. Something happens with music that we get caught in a time warp and we can't escape. I like to believe I am immune to that, but only time will tell.

My point is that discovering new music is almost tantamount to finding a new soul within ourselves. It is refreshing and invigorating, and makes ya feel like a million dollars. No, I am not at the levels of happiness I wish I was at, but I am at somewhat of a plateau level that I dont care. It isnt a placebo but rather a temporary fix that will never be satisfied by my insatiable quest to find what it is that makes me happy. New music is just great for the soul and makes you realize that there is stuff to fight for. That there is a beginning and an end to all things. That no matter what the fuck we did before it doesnt mean shit compared to the people that we can become today. Hence why the stuff we do in HS, outside of shooting up the school, never comes back to haunt us. Cause there is a beginning and an end to all our lives. Even if they come and go in cycles of style, no matter what who we are gets recycled. That is the lesson for today. Find new music. No matter the genre. It will invigorate you.

FIN.

When you are over 40, you tend to stick with the oldies. Old songs really are the soundtracks of our lives, and we have so many fond memories whenever we hear an old fave.
However, I am digging some of the newer bands since I've been with XM.
