D5L Newsletter Continued...

Friend, Hello again. Sorry about the "firstname" at
the start of my newsletter this month.. Just goes to show
how "personal" technology can be.

I just got back from the movies and saw "Heart Of Gold"
which is basically Neil Young performing live with a bunch
of band members. It was good, but not what I expected.
This was however, the perfect movie to chill and watch, and
relax. Not your typical overhyped, and over-produced movie
out today.

Neil Young sings a song about a time when things were
simpler.. someone would actually stop and chat with the
local police officer.. people got around more on bikes, and
things were slower. Today, so many young kids grow up in a
fast paced, and technological society. Technology doesn't
have to be a bad thing, but it can be.

I was talking with Sarah about how nice it is to have the
convenience of a mobile phone.. Since I washed her phone
in the washing machine, she mentioned how nice it was NOT to
have one. I can understand exactly why. Can you? We don't
have to be slaves to our technology, and impersonalize
everything from emails to bank transactions online. We can
still be who we are, we can communicate, we can say "hello"
to the person in our path. At least "excuse me". Is that
even a part of our language anymore? And if you do say
"excuse me" to someone, most of the time they don't even
look up anyway.

I'm calling my new CD "A Simple Life" by the way. It was
going to be called "The Simple Life" but I just don't want
my CD associated with the T.V. show with the same title. I
think "A Simple Life" sounds better anyway.

I'll leave you with some lyrics from the song
"A Simple Life" to be included on the new CD, when the
complicated studio recording finally comes out.

---A SIMPLE LIFE
You need tinted shades to cover up your eyes
To hide the expression
On your face lingering inside
Can't make a connection
When you try to say what you feel
The message isn't clear
Could cry out loud but they still won't hear
It's a busy world out there

Keepin' up with the pace
There's no time to hesitate
While love just keeps passing by
And there's no time
Have we run out of time

For the simple life
I just want a simple life

Don't have to think just do your part
Or we'll find a replacement
Fry your brain throw away your heart
And take a pill to replace them
There's a thousand things that get in the way
And the clock keeps turning
No closer to satisfaction than you were yesterday

Keepin' up with the pace
There's no time to hesitate
While love just keeps passing by
And there's no time
Have we run out of time

For the simple life
I just want a simple life

I don't need these complications
I'm 'tryin to find explanations
Well I got too much information
And I can't think anymore
I'll just turn it off ..

a great show come out to Lenny's Coffee and Gallery tonight

P.S. Sorry about the "getresponse" links in this months
newsletter.. I was trying to use some technology to track
how many clicks my web site got through this newsletter.
The link I meant to have appear in my newsletter was
actually: http://www.terrancedamian.com

Excuse me, please, thank you, pardon me, forgive me, may I,
and God Bless you!
