    Think for yourself...
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    question authority! right on!

    was that your point or were saying that by sharing the video I'm not thinking for myself? If that's the case then we should cease to watch all movies and videos, stop reading books, newspapers, articles...that logic doesn't make sense. There is nothing wrong with sharing opinion pieces. most of us here can watch whatever is out there is have the ability to process it and use our critical thinking to decide if we agree or not. Just because people may not share your opinion, that in no way demonstrates their ability to think for themselves.

    while salival is a great album, i prefer the studio version w/ the bill hicks quotes,but i guess i could be biased (ya see that skitch!?) :p
    standin above the crowd
    he had a voice that was strong and loud and
    i swallowed his facade cos i'm so
    eager to identify with
    someone above the crowd
    someone who seemed to feel the same
    someone prepared to lead the way

    It's probably a concept beyond your ability to grasp, but it is possible to read the bible and still think for yourself. Much like a person can watch a movie, go to school, read a magazine and still think for themself.
