"Mass-market nostalgia gets you hopped up for a past that never existed. Hagiography sanctifies shuck-and-jive politicians and reinvents their expedient gestures as moments of great moral weight. Our continuing narrative line is blurred past truth and hindsight. Only a reckless verisimilitude can set that line straight."

Or as depech mode say;
Come on and lay with me
Come on and lie to me
Tell me you love me
Say I'm the only one
Experiences have a lasting impression
But words once spoken
Don't mean a lot now
Belief is the way
The way of the innocent
And when I say innocent
I should say naive
So lie to me
But do it with sincerity
Make me listen
Just for a minute
Make me think
There's some truth in it
Promises made for convenince
Aren't necessarily
What we need
Truth is a word
That's lost it's meaning
The truth has become
Merely half truth
So lie to me
Like they do it in a factory
Make me think
That at the end of the day
Some great Reward
Will be coming my way.
Uncle, another good post. I can't imagine how you're able to amass all those videos that you show us, but let me say, thanks. I can't imagine watching all the crap you must watch before you find the gems you share.
Peace
