If I told you how often that song gets stuck in my head, you’d be weirded out. It’s poetry for the times, and it just keeps adding layers of meaning, doesn’t it? Same as it ever was indeed. Great one.

I agree. I’m lucky to know so many folks online who are, deep inside, just exactly who they project. And I’m very grateful for that.

You totally weirded me out. I was living this song this week.

And you may find yourself living in a shotgun shack
And you may find yourself in another part of the world
And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful
Wife
And you may ask yourself-well…how did I get here?

Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/after the moneys gone
Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground.

And you may ask yourself
How do I work this?
And you may ask yourself
Where is that large automobile?
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful house!
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful wife!

Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/after the moneys gone
Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground.

Same as it ever was…same as it ever was…same as it ever was…
Same as it ever was…same as it ever was…same as it ever was…
Same as it ever was…same as it ever was…

Water dissolving…and water removing
There is water at the bottom of the ocean
Carry the water at the bottom of the ocean
Remove the water at the bottom of the ocean!

Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/in the silent water
Under the rocks and stones/there is water underground.

Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/after the moneys gone
Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground.

And you may ask yourself
What is that beautiful house?
And you may ask yourself
Where does that highway go?
And you may ask yourself
Am I right? …am I wrong?
And you may tell yourself
My god!…what have I done?

Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/in the silent water
Under the rocks and stones/there is water underground.

Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/after the moneys gone
Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground.

Same as it ever was…same as it ever was…same as it ever was…
Same as it ever was…same as it ever was…same as it ever was…
Same as it ever was…same as it ever was…

I put it as my status update on Facebook and Brett’s sister was the first to comment on it. (Brett’s sister is way cool by the way) So cool I named my second kid after her.

Anyway, all the folks who comment here are genuine, honest and interesting people. Don’t beleive me? Read their blogs.

And that’s why I maintain that “we are cool”.

Ah, Paris Hilton.

Best. Role model. Evar.

She warms my heart.

Being a blog author may be (somewhat) ahead of the pack, but it’s not cool, necessarily…

But I love the attitude idea. I think that really is it. You *are* only as cool as you think you are—and a little swagger does a world of good. Helps me get over the red-as-a-beet thing IRL, too.

I don’t think that Paris Hilton is cool, for instance.

But *she* does, and many people agree!

As the saying goes, “you’re only as young as you think you are” could be re-written as “you’re only as cool as you think you are”.

Attitude, perhaps. How you carry yourself.

If you think you’re mundane and boring, so you shall be in the eyes of others.

(I mean, you could say the same thing about obsessed Trekkies).
