mightier? trousers. duh. technically. insides.

The pen is mightier than the sword.
But the pencil is mightier than the pen. (Cause you can write AND erase stuff with it.)

baggy pants.
Never has an article of clothing introduced more laughter into my life.
Once, I saw a young male walking down the street.
Every 5 steps or so, He'd stop to pull up his pants.
Right after he did so, they promptly settled back into their original position.
Things like this cause me to wonder why the heck you'd ever buy pants that are way too big for you and not at least wear a belt.
But then, I see a guy, with large trousers, and a belt.
But lo! and behold! The belt is just a tool, used to keep his pants right below his derriere.
A-mazing.

Things that are easy to lose: guitar picks and ipods.

Some songs make me happy.
Some songs make me really happy.
"Kick Drum Heart" by The Avett Brothers.
Have a listen here: http://grooveshark.com/#/s/Kick+Drum+Heart/2zrjED?src=5
I like it.
The drums are great. (duh.)
And, I think the piano is awesome.
 But Personally, I think the best part of this song is the vocals.  They killed it on this one.
But that's just my opinion. what's yours?

Words that are fun to say, but not technically real words: Ridonculous. and Hilarimous.

" I miss you" by Blink 182. http://grooveshark.com/#/s/I+Miss+You/1GJKqv?src=5
 I love this song.
The slightly, no, just plain creepy verses ,
The drum intro,
the steady bass/guitar line,
the strings,
the subtle use of a xylophone,
the really pretty piano interlude,
It just works.
This song evokes sadness, pain, and general melancholy feelings.
But you can't help but smile when you hear the line:
" And as I stared I counted,
webs from all the spiders,
catching things and
Eating their insides."

yup. that just about sums it up.
