I was in desperate need of some creative new away messages, so I began googling fragments of old songs I remembered hearing my parents listen to when I could barely talk. I came across this:

Styx - Fooling Yourself (The Angry Young Man) Lyrics
(Tommy Shaw)
You see the world through your cynical eyes
You're a troubled young man I can tell
You've got it all in the palm of your hand
But your hand's wet with sweat and your head needs a rest
And you're fooling yourself if you don't believe it
You're kidding yourself if you don't believe it
How can you be such an angry young man
When your future looks quite bright to me
How can there be such a sinister plan
That could hide such a lamb, such a caring young man

You're fooling yourself if you don't believe it
You're kidding yourself if you don't believe it
Get up, get back on your feet
You're the one they can't beat and you know it
Come on, let's see what you've got
Just take your best shot and don't blow it

You're fooling yourself if you don't believe it
You're killing yourself if you don't believe it
Get up, get back on your feet
You're the one they can't beat and you know it
Come on, let's see what you've got
Just take your best shot and don't blow it.
They forgot most of the punctuation and put commas where they should have put semi-colons, among other things. I thought about fixing that. I thought about it. I decided not to.

I think I'm going to take a little break from the CoG for a while. I need to do some stuff in the real world. I don't really know what I need to do, but I'm sure I need to do it.

I'll accomplish whatever it is soon enough, or at least get one step closer to it. I know I'll be back here. Although I don't really know when.
 
All the best, Jason.
Yeah, I'll be taking a break for a few weeks as well.
I need to do stuff in the real world too & I really don't know if im still into YGO or not.
I think I need to step away from it for a while & see if the interest is still there. I also need to take a break from the PC & net.
Its screwing my vision up & giving me migraines.
It was nice meeting you for this very short time.

If by that you mean we'll side track less from the main topic for having to make declarative statements about punctuation, fallacies and straw men... I can live with that not being the same old grind day in and day out.

Sometimes, you just want to have a discussion that doesnt turn into someones Thesis on "The average intelligence of a Yugioh Player."

Now maybe we can serve the greater public, instead of getting caught up in daliy arguments over nothing that will benefit anyone, other than a individual ego/pysche, and maybe when he comes back he will have learned that its better to be less combatitive when we are all here for the same reason; to help people understand "YUGIOH', and not Psychology, The English Language, Brain Growth, etc...

Those things have a certain time and place, and while they may make interesting tidbits of information, Im sure many people would like to get on with the Original Yugioh topic after 2 or 3 pages of it.

While there are certainly a large number of very intelligent people here, it isnt really necessary to carry on and on and on and on when you really aren't gaining ground with the direction of your argument. By all means, speak your mind, but be mindful of your audience.
 
You don't use standard punctuation in sheet music and lyrics Just thought I should mention that. :rolleyes
 
Man, where is the love?

I know I'm a little latefor this, because he's probably gone already, but it is my sincere wish and prayer that Jason find peace and rest, so that in his return here to COG we might find greater insight, wisdom and grace.

Rest well, my friend!

.....who knows, maybe one day that mind of his will unwrap the mysteries of the universe.

<That Styx song was, like 5/6th grade for me....dang, I'm old.>
 
Should I add an "Amen" to that?? :lol:

Like DLoC stated, it's a little late, but hey why not?

Have a great time with whatever you need to do. We'll catch ya on the flip side.
