Family holiday adventures now include: putting a plastic spoon down the garbage disposal! The dog breaking one of his nails and bleeding all over the apartment before being wrestled to the ground and field-bandaged! And a trip to the beach

Like if he stood there long enough that dog'd get up and run. The determination of the human mind to make things be the way it wants things to be never will be outstripped, y'know?

I think that verse of this song is the point that I realized I love Nebraska (and began listening to it more or less constantly for about a year, until it was replaced in my car by Greetings from Asbury Park; don't ask me. I just -- I get that feeling, a lot. I feel like that guy, or I feel like I'm trying to communicate with someone else who is that guy or . . .I dunno, I'm the dead dog and I'm like "GUY, STOP POKING ME, OKAY???"

Yeah, anyway. I don't think I've heard the live version and now want to hunt it down.

I'll upload it for you as soon as I'm back to my place and my CD collection. Curse my lack of foresight and ripping CDs to my hard drive.

I can never hear this (even at the concert the other day) without hearing Tim Hardin's Reason to Believe in my head and comparing. Which is hard, as the songs have nothing in common but the title. One day I'll have to do a music post along those lines, if I can think of some more different songs/same title. There must be lots.

Thank you for Brucemas - I've enjoyed reading your thoughts. Which sounds a bit creepy, put like that, and as though I were in possession of psychic powers. Thank heavens I am not.
