What a great world it would be if more folks remembered that in their daily lives. We have a choice at every corner, during every day, to view the glass half empty or half full. I choose to see the glass half full and hope to remind all your readers to do the same. It's a good place to be!

I'm going to see if the library has that one next. The one I read was <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0306809702?ie=UTF8&tag=dyersorg-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0306809702" rel="nofollow">Heavy Metal</a> by Deena Weinstein. It's a relatively in-depth look at the music and culture of heavy metal from a sociological perspective. Even though there are a couple of glaring contradictions, Weinstein brings up a lot of good points. @Erin: Thanks!

I'm going to have to get back out there one day. @N0ia: Try standing a couple of feet away from a crowd of people. It's bizarre. Wait, don't try that. @BonzoGal: Ooh that’s a nice offer, but it’s sort of like getting a concert T without going to the show. I’m going to have to get back out there one day.

I don't know how many times I've had stagefright and had to walk out of the bathroom with a still full bladder. Every once in a while it still hits me, but I think I've overcome it for the most part.

I live not too far away, and any excuse to go in there is a good one. If you need a new Amoeba shirt, let me know. I live not too far away, and any excuse to go in there is a good one.
