The Posies

Sombody is GRUMPY

Hi, I'm whimgrinder and I like to spend my time and energy being grumpy and negative. Because grumpy is new chic!

a message of compassion to whimgrinder

This from the words of Rumi

When your chest is free of your limiting ego, Then you will see the ageless Beloved. You can not see yourself without a mirror; Look at the Beloved, He is the brightest mirror.

peace be with you - ab

WTF?

typical Seattleite nonsense:

when someone emphatically disagrees with one's misleading, apodictic statement, play the ad-hominem game (oh, you must be a habitual party pooper!) and maybe throw in some patronizing poetry ta boot. jeez. LOL!

How totally lame.

Moreover, grumpy is not the new chic. And I'm not being negative.

Just telling the truth.

That ok?

Or would you prefer that all commenters simply burst at the seams with phony positivism/compassion/etc - no matter how uninformed your posts?

Can I just say that I consider the Posies to be the greatest band ever....to come out of Bellingham?

Being Apodictic is the New Black!

Or, like, something like that, you know?

Bellingham?

I had no idea. Or are you just messin' around? I thought the poetry was brilliant! Thanks for the change of pace Al! Whimgrinder is awesome because he or she gives me a lot of attention. I like attention. It's sort of like having a fan.

Good to be a Posie

Ken Stringfellow and Jon Auer love to make music. Now with Matt Harris and Darius Minwalla, they continue to play and the people continue to follow them no matter where they are. Who can forget their album Dear 23 and those catchy pop hooks?

Well, it ain't over yet kiddies! They literally feed off their audience and it seems to compel them to write more songs and play a lot. Which is cool with me. You could not find a cooler event to see this weekend (5/17/08 at Neumos) if you tried.

Fred Roth says: "You could not find a cooler event to see this weekend if you tried."

It is infinitely annoying when the ill-informed speak in apodictic terms. It is a symptom of insecurity revolving around a lack of knowledge. Check ur facts, and then check ur head (your statement is indisputably inaccurate).
