Artists seek the edge of possible emotional experience and sometimes fall over the edge during the search. We owe them a huge debt for what they do for us, and it is always tragic when one passes before completing a journey. In a way though it is just a part of the risk in exploring anything wonderful. To not have gone at all would be more tragic.

Alrighty then...

Sounds like an excuse to blow your brains out on high powered drugs and booze. Ted Nugent is 100% correct on that subject.

You know usually your posts are pretty intelligent and informative on this board, but this makes me want to punch a bag of kittens.

there are plenty of "Joe Lunch Boxes" who have the same demons. At the risk of TOS, please change kittens to politicians for me.

He basically is very anti-drugs/drinking and talks down about all his contemporaries who didn't necessarily share the same philosophy.
