Re: Concert experiences
I'm at concerts fairly routinely these days. I gave up doing big-venue, large-crowd shows -- just not my style. I prefer the mid-to-small venue scene.

Re: Gun culture in the US
I just know my views are not going to be popular, and yet, I will share them here. What is your attitude to firearm ownership? It is the natural right of all human beings everywhere to arm or not arm themselves however they see fit. Firearm ownership is just a subspecies of this general natural righ...
