Sloth Quoted Again
I love to see my name in print.
I just came across this one in my searches from one 2001 drunk night's cocaine ranting:

You said "Beat", that means Blondie's "Eat To The Beat" the album that forced me to finally undersatnd Blondie. I had wanted to understand for so long...
Let me tell a story to Paxacidus, a story I had kept back in my memory...
My dad...bought records. Lots of them. One day he took me to the local record store, a deteriorating building made of old wood...lots of vinyl there. In possibly, 1978, he took me there...I saw a big large poster of Elvis Costello there. I said "Daddy, I want something of him!" He said "But that's not Elvis..." meaning that wasn't Elvis as we all know him Graceland style. But if Daddy had just taken for granted that his own child knew that the man on the poster wasn't the Elvis everyone knew but was instead a whole new NEW WAVE phenomenon...how my life might have been different. Now, I was never a huge fan of Elvis Costello, but all the same, if daddy had just judged his child intelligent enough to understand...how might my life had changed.
Enough, I've shared more with Paxacidusers than I thought I ever would.
If Daddy had just understood that musical times were changing...if Daddy had just understood...
