Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’

This is probably my favorite tune of the 21st Century.
I've purchased multiple CDs/DVDs of the album "10,000 Days" since it was first released in 2006, and on each, track #s 7 & 8 are uninterrupted. Since, however, those CDs/DVDs have either been lost, or gone to heaven (probably the latter)...and, in my digital media collection, I am relegated to going without track #7 (Lost Keys), or, as in this case, listening to someone's reaction/s...
In this case, the Reactor is pleasant, and her reactions aren't too interruptive...and...wanting to afford you the opportunity to get the full effect of track #8 (Rosetta Stoned), this is the best I can do this evening (goes well with my present mood)...(includes lyrics).
Songs - "Lost Keys & Rosetta Stoned"
Album - "10,000 Days"
Band - "Tool"
Reactor - "MetalMana" (on YouTube)

A little bit of something from my hoods... I used to live nearby, now a little bit more far away. Plenty of friends there. Good place. Real place. Well of course it is a real place but i mean that shit is REAL there!
