(12,132 posts)JUST so he could be an MP.
He wanted to be an MP so that when he got out of the Army he could become a cop.
He wanted to be a cop so that he could drive around and bust kids smoking weed.
And he wanted to bust kids smoking weed so he could confiscate it to make up for all the effin times we had cops come bust us and take our weed. (It happened pretty often in the early 80s Texas. Cops never took us to jail - they just took our stash).
I lost track of him after I moved away but I know he did join the army. Don't know for sure about the rest of his plan but I'd wager heachieved at least some part of it.
My favorite bands (Other than Led Zeppelin and Rush) are all underground death metal bands so most of them would be obscure to people not into metal but are probably all well known among people who are.
Here's one band I love that doesn't get much recognition:
Portal live at Maryland Death Fest in 2010 - This is a "you had to be there" moment because it's hard for some little vid-cam to truly capture how intense this show was - I was in that blackness somewhere.
