I could tell you the wildest of tales
My friend the giant and traveling sales
Tell you all the times that I failed
The years all behind me
The stories exhaled

And I'm drying out
Crying out
This isn't how I go

I could tell you of a man not so tall
Who said life's a circus and so we are small
Tell you of a girl that I saw
I froze in the moment and she changed it all

And I'm drying out
Crying out
This isn't how I go
Hurry now
Lay me down
And I let these waters flow
Flow

Son I am not everything you thought that I would be
But every story I have told is part of me

And you keep the air in my lungs
Floating along as a melody comes
And my heart beats like timpani drums
Keeping the time while a symphony strums

And I'm drying out
Crying out
This isn't how I go
Hurry now
Lay me down
And let these waters flow
Flow
Let it flow
Flow
Let it flow

Son I am not everything you thought that I would be
But every story I have told is part of me
Son I leave you now but you have so much more to do
And every story I have told is part of you

La te da!

SpiderFilm has been in hiatus for almost a year now. But after today it looks like its heading towards being back in business. Someone called me up with a story idea and asked if it would work. I told him to write it up and give it to me. The idea sounds awesome. I'll tell more about it once it is confirmed.

I also researched some more video cameras today. Our poor old Sony is in the grave. I have actually only made 4 true short films. The rest have been experimental or just skits. So I'm excited that a bigger project may be coming.

Well, I just wanted to share that bit.

Vermont has been nice. It's been quiet and relaxing. I was changing my old guitar strings at 11 pm while watching Lost. Nevertheless, I got distracted, over-tightened the string, and POP! So frustrating. I got more and now it's replaced.

It's always nice when you are feeling down about something, then a good friend calls, you tell them the problem, and in 5 minutes you have completely gotten your mind off of it.

Eric had his first number 4 talk tonight. I was not present but I heard from my family it was fantastic! Great job, Eric!

You know this system of things is going downhill extremely fast when you read this headline in the news: "Twenty-five people were injured in an annual cheese-rolling competition, where daredevils chase giant cheeses down a steep slope in western England." Thank you, Elizabeth, for sending me the link to this news article. Apparently people from Australia, New Zealand, the U.S. and all over England come to watch this event. Sounds intriguing. No, no, that's a lie. Sounds stupid.

The clock must keep ticking if we are to sit."
