not literally next door. I lived in St Louis and visited the park many times. When we were in high school, we would drive there from Iowa-it was not yet protected as a historic site and hunted for arrowheads.

Really? So you lived there before, and know about all the neighborhoods that were built on top of them?

You had buried mounds nest door??

omg. yes. nest door neighbors.

Yes! You know of them?

Yes!

Okay, had toast instead. Going to bed right now. ;]

I should've been in bed at least three hours ago.... It's 4:30am but what the hell, it's Saturday & I've been on the Scotch. Fry up for me please...

what time is it for you? are you having coddled eggs and kippers on toast points right now? cuz I am in my cups

The music industry as it is? I'll never accept it. I love to experiment. I write music that I like - & music that makes me laugh. I try to push boundaries & only pay as much attention as is necessary to the mainstream ie. mixing techniques but that's about it.

just hitting this tonight. I'll give a better anal in the morning. are we talking about cahokia Illinois? burial mounds? jus checking

Good. At some point you either discover that being creative is more about the self than the acceptance of the art, or you become one of the zombies!

Unrealistic? BS! If what I read is the 'boring stuff' the rest should be a great success.

The Fountainhead is an amazing book. It - and Atlas, woke me up to the fear that our 'superiors' have of our ability to create. Both are controversial & encourage us to be bold in our ideas & disregard the rest.

I've written/co-written eight albums worth of music in the past decade & got nowhere so far. I'm still not giving up.

yes overman

My son-in-law has been after me to do it that way. You should see the "crazy" stuff............the action. I only put the boring stuff up. : )

Agents told me that it was "unrealistic." That stuck in my throat in very painful way until I read The Fountainhead. Then I understood why I was told such a thing.

I thought they might. Reckon it would make a good book. I read it as such & it had me hooked. ;]

I'm impressed that you took the time! Screenplays are different, but the story there has a message. And I had to do that. One of these days someone will put that project together and tell the whole story. But for Cameron, things work out well. : )

That was a good read. "Cameron is interested, but totally confused." Gah! You know how to keep people hanging. ;]
