RIP 3/8/11

Rest In Peace, Lucille Bunch

My Great-Aunt Lucille passed away yesterday around 8pm. When I was a kid, I used to think her name was Aunt Seal. :)  A bit of an ornery old lady for sure, but I have fantastic memories of summer vacations at she and Uncle Buddy's place in north Florida.

(RIP Mike Starr as well. Half of the original AIC is now gone.)

"The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this: A human creature born abnormally, inhumanly sensitive.

To him...

a touch is a blow,
a sound is a noise,
a misfortune is a tragedy,
a joy is an ecstasy,
a friend is a lover,
a lover is a god,
and failure is death.

Add to this cruelly delicate organism the overpowering necessity to create, create, create -- so that without the creating of music or poetry or books or buildings or something of meaning, his very breath is cut off from him. He must create, must pour out creation. By some strange, unknown, inward urgency he is not really alive unless he is creating."

- Pearl S. Buck

Love

Just listened to Joseph Merrick Was A Handsome Man.

God, I love Swank Sinatra. They make me happy. The world needs more music like this; there are very few bands on earth, much less locals, that can inspire me to dance across my office.
