I dunno. The human spirit, playing amongst the ruins of
the rational ego after "the end of the world as we know it"?

As for the picture? I don't know. The people who used
to live in the house?

I was just thinking about that video, actually. Funny
you should mention it.

actually, having your rational ego smashed really
isn't any fun at all, it's fairly frightening, especially
if you've got a lot of scar tissue. I would not wish
it upon anyone.

Although: the stars in the night sky can be really beautiful
when you start to remember that they're there again, and that
the trees are really very green.

The boy is Noah Ray ( i've no idea how you spell the last name, but this
is what it sounds like ). He's a songwriter from Clark county and he was
fifteen when the video was shot.The guy in the picture ? no idea

Funnily enough we had a thread about the kid recently - someone here
(Lisa?!?) still knows him. His name was Noah... (I keep feeling inclined
to say Ark)

Oh well
