sometimes it happens, and when it does, it's always good. i've found myself on a 'gbv kick,' which basically means that i'm being guided by the voice of robert pollard. there's not much better than that. pacing the apartment, singing in my faux british accent 'senator sipping on gentleman jack' or 'proud brothers...do not fret...the bus will get you there yet' or 'decide now before you continue. the list is complete without your permission' and it's all so random but so wonderful. and you (or me, anyway) realize that, occassionally, contenders will emerge or new trends will have me singing neo-soul or british rap or the latest synthesized orchestra but when it's all said and it's all done, the last one standing will be the fading captain.

ahhh...how sweet it is.
