Once they hear the volume jump from (Track 2) to Mind Your Manners they won't be complaining about Sometimes to Hail, Hail anymore.

I really want to hear more songs off this. I mean, I want to hear this album more than I want the apocalypse... and that's a lot.

Yeah. Should've happened in 2010 but nope. Our Coalition got elected instead. Maybe the apocalypse did happen and I'm in hell now.

I usually try to stay in the mindset that there is always people out there that are having it worse than me, but lately I've been getting up in the morning feeling like I'm in a fog that I can't get out of. A lot of things have been driving me insane.

:roll: To be living a simple life off the land, and blowing zombies away with a shotgun, that's all I dream of.

People always think I'm crazy for saying it'd be cool the witness the apocalypse. I mean, it'd be the most significant event in human history. We're all gonna die someday, why wouldn't you want to see the biggest event ever?

Same. My only hope is that time passes and that one day we... could something else.

I guess this is why I'm in the right place for the MYM single at the moment. I've got older, but I probably want the end of everything more than I ever have. This world's no longer good and it makes me want to cry.

MYM and STBC are both No. 2 tracks. I just kind of realized that. Duh.

I really, really hope they lead into MYM with an instrumental on the album. I mean, that's something that'll probably win me over to the album right away. It's kind of thing that proves they thought about composition of the entire album as a piece.

I'd rather be alive right now than at any other time in history, that's for sure.

Well, I'd rather not be alive right now full-stop, but that's saying nothing about the past, because not too long ago I wouldn't have survived my birth.

That's true for a lot of people in recent history. One of my boys, and probably my wife, would have both died if it were a few decades earlier. But the sad thing is, things still go wrong for others, I've got a niece and a nephew that are both 'angel' babies.
