- You're having a life crisis. You'll be able to tell the mid-life
- crisis by the exponential growth in the number of guitars you own.
-
- You'll also note a sudden urge to form your own musical group and
- instead of complaining about pop music, you'll actually be trying
- to imitate it.
-
- Standard wanting of material objects, vaguely reasonable desires
- coming to life (riding a motorcycle, bungee jumping, etc) are just
- signs that although you are alive, part of your brain doesn't think
- you're living.
-
- life's a banquet, and
- most poor suckers are
- starving to death.
