well, was gonna start with how it was 6 years ago when we committed to opening our hearts –
a move that’s been amazing. So, happy 6th anniv, Blue Monkey Highlight – certainly a highlight of my life.

then how it’s less a kick to the gut, more a kick to the head, and for no good reason, when ‘wish you were here’ is played on my drive in to work … damn.
So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We’re just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have you found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

but the additional ‘wow’ of Grasshopper’s death, flooding memories of saturday afternoons watching a made up story of better human ideals – well, thanks for the entertainment, and thanks for the non-traditional philosophy courses, Kwai Chang Caine. RIP.
wow.
