Articulate to the last....very well written as usual, and very vivid
You'll have to tell me about your adventures as a young adult at some point, I have a feeling the word "interesting" won't do it justice.
And lol yes on visiting Pompeii......I bet it's the sort of place that once you visit you never completely leave.
Nick Mason, the drummer, is definitely one of a kind and thankfully still with us, Waters and Gilmour too.
Richard Wright, the keyboardist we sadly lost in 2009, and Syd Barrett a founding member RIP 2006.
Weird time....I don't really know how else to describe it...surreal perhaps?
I'm doing pretty good all things considered. The news cycle is mentally toxic so I generally avoid it and find myself reading, listening to music and gardening.
What else is a crazy old guy supposed to do ?
I suppose I could discuss how Pompeii was not prepared for the volcanic disaster, how unaware and lost in our own devices we've become, forgetting how badly a civil war can decimate our world, how ill prepared Europe was for the Bubonic Plague...and on and on....how easily people forget that no civilization lasts forever. The vessels of collapse come in many forms.
But that'd be depressing
So instead I find myself listening to more Floyd under a starry sky, sipping a very flavorful 128 proof moonshine and counting my blessings
Your starry nights sound beyond cosy. I don't drink but right this moment i wish i did
Please have one for me too? At your convenience. Bless you
