I wonder what all these iconic, or not iconic, people who died at an early age would be like today.
Would they have just faded away, been caricatures of themselves, created greater things?
Jim Morrison, John Lennon, Jimmy Hendrix, Kurt Cobain, Jeff Buckley, Elliott Smith?
Watched a documentary about Jeff Buckley the other day. He only had time for one album. Died while recording demos for his second.
I don't care for is first album, Grace, that much. But there's plenty of talent there.
And how awesome is Pablo honey, compared to Radiohead's later releases? Not very awesome at all....
But in contrast to bands like The Rolling stones who are pretty ridiculous these days, what would the Beatles be like? Probably still broken up. Maybe it would have saved us from some of those McCartney solo stuff....
Or Hendrix?
The Doors had already started to go really stale.
Nirvana?
I like to ponder the impossible, it makes my brain tingle. And hurt a little....
But as the Unamuno quote goes: "Only he who attempts the absurd is capable of achieving the impossible."
And why do so many have names that start with a J?
Jim, John, Jimmy, Jeff, Janis.....

My dreams
I've had quite a few dreams of our forthcoming child.
It's always a girl.
Every time.
Is it a sign, or just dreams?
But in my dreams, she's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
In my dreams I wouldn't dream of having it any other way.
