    Evenflow is about a donut. and it's struggle to survive another day in the life of a donut at Dunkin Donuts. as his fellow donuts get taken away and eaten and dunked in 150 degrees cups of coffee

I saw the video (it kind of disturbed me), I like the song but I did'nt quite understand what it was about.Somebody help me please!I'd appreciate it. And I have to say that Pearl Jam has to be amazing to catch my attention!

    Every now and then you'll have a problem with the boiler, you have to hit it with a hammer, but it's a good job.

    Jeremy is a true story, about a boy who got bullyed and ignored by his parents. he end up shoothing him self infront of his class, fuking up everyone else life too. Read the lyrics to urself and think of what every line means to you.

    UPDATE: Photos from Jeremys yearbook at RHS 1991 now appear which show memorials to Jeremy and a photo of his English Teacher and other students.
    I appreciate the kind words about my site, http://www.sshep.com. A few Sundays ago I stopped by Richardson High School and took photos of it. I live about six miles from it now. These are photos of the school where Jeremy Delle committed suicide. Also, at the bottom of the page are two special versions of Jeremy done by Pearl Jam. They are mp3's you can download. The one at Red Rocks is intense and a high quality version of it can be downloaded.

    I now have photos posted of the yearbook for Richardson High School, 1991, that show 2 memorials put in the yearbook for Jeremy, as well as photos of his english teacher and all of the students who spoke in the news article about his suicide. In one reference they specificially mention Jeremy by full name, Jeremy Wade Delle. Also, the original DJ who interviewed Eddie and Stone in 1991 about Jeremy stopped by my site and dropped a note which appears on the page as well.
