    Asking people sarcastic questions like this one:
    Do you know why adults always ask little kids what do you wanna be when they grow up? They are looking for ideas about possible career choices themselves. HA! HA!

Now, Mr. Whiley always refers to himself in the 3rd person. Bob hates this. Bob loves that sort of thing. Also, another forum member, Blood ON The Tracks, informed me that a character on "Seinfeld" named "Jimmy" used this comedic device first.</div><div> </div><div>Why do I do this? Simple really. I always thought that speaking in the 3rd person is a great comical device to act as though a person is observing life's events from a distance above it all like a near death experience almost as if you are watching someone else live vicariously through you. In a nutshell, I am paying homage to Bob & Jimmy because I have a fondness for brilliant comedians that make you think & are kind of like the protest singers of my generation George Carlin, Bill Maher etc. etc.</div>

      Great selection RR7! Amen. :thmup: 

       

      I respect individuals like yourself who view metal as an artistic artform rather than merely diss-ing it as a worthy genre to listen to frequently. 

       

      Too many critics think metal is just loud amps, shouting, & grunting, but what they fail to grasp is that the best metal bands know how to harmonize, use clever hooks, & deploy complicated drum solos, guitar riffs, & intricate bridges throughout. 

       

      You get it man. Thanks.

      Speaking of Zeppelin Barry, I love that line in 'Ramble On' where Plant sings the line: "T'was in the darkest depths of Mordor, I met a girl so fair. But Gollum, and the evil one crept up and slipped away with her, her, her....yeah."

       

      I'm a huge JRR Tolkien fan ever since I read his book trilogies--The Hobbit & Lord Of The Rings.
