Was going to write a lovely post about intuition and the leading of the Spirit, but I'm much too tired to do any such thing. It's a shame, really, as I'm sure the post would have been much better than the essay I once nearly wrote comparing & contrasting Nine Inch Nails' The Downward Spiral and the Biblical book of Ecclesiastes. You folks just don't know what you've been missing, poor dears.

hey, i want to read the one about the downward spiral! please write it sometime. i think "the becoming" is a brilliant song. "the me that you know, he used to have feelings..." etc. ;)

i'd also like to read the one about intuition and the Spirit. that would interest me mightily. i hope you can get a good rest tonight. cool and rainy, should be good for sleeping and dreaming up essays!

Oh, it was a lovely night for sleeping. But I'm afraid that the only dream I remember involved Mafia-types chasing me through alternate universes while somebody gave me a make-up kit and tried to teach me how to use cosmetics properly. Please don't ask me how those two plotlines tied together!

Okay, two votes for the NIN vs. Ecclesiastes matchup. Voters: Vicki and Vicki.

Hmm, maybe there's something in the name Vicki that makes you guys deranged. ;-)

hey, i resemble that remark! :D

it really does sound like an interesting essay. no kidding. though i looked up the lyrics online last night and was alarmed to see i'd misunderstood ol' trent. i thought he was singing "i've become machine." acc. to the webpage, he's not. it's "i beat my machine." ooooooops. hee hee. well, he's a pretty boy, so it could be worse. [snickering] sorry 'bout that. back to applying cosmetics as you're chased by mafiosi!

LOL!!!

apparently we just recognize kindred brilliance when we see it *grin*

/me skips off shouting: "deranged! deranged!! lalalalala!"

*pause*
*returns to keyboard*

actually, whenever i look up stuff for meaning of names, there's always stuff about it being 'victorious'... i always thought that was a bit too militant for my liking...

/me marches off in search of my lance and armor

Uh..or how about?

Hi! Got to admit I dont know Nine Inch Nails or any
other current group(vaguely U2 and ,uh the Stones)
well it can be ,uh, generational that...
but one could do "Ecclesiastes and the Stones'
Paint it Black'"
or
"Ecclesiastes and Bill Monroe: or The Moon Keeps
Shining in Kentucky but Dang! it's Blue."
cheers!
