I was thinking of death today. Don't be worried, not in an emo or depressing way. I just went through a bit of sad stress and grief, after a great musical teacher from my school passed away, after being in coma. He had a great life in any way, but a stupid moto accident just took it all away.
I used to have a great dedication towards the issue of dying. Once thought of it as a beautiful entity (obviously, out of a mix of depression and unbelonging to this world); in my literary notes, there's, of course, an angel of death - a mesmerizing glowing messenger, on top of the balance between good and evil, on top of the line between what needs to be forgotten and what is everpresent.
Since those thoughts, death happened more close than usually around the people I know - and my initial thoughts are easy to crumble. Since death, after all, seems like a tragedy - and nothing else.

I have something to talk about. People that put on masks day to day and never reveal their true self and hurt other people in the process. My dad got fired and I counted those people as friends because they were nice to me and seemed alright for the 4 years I knew them. Then found out what type of lying b*****ds they were.

This was last year but I'm still mad about it because it caused me to move 5000 miles away from friends and basically killed those friendships.
The worst thing was the fact that they called themselves Christians and did not show a Christian way of life. Hypocrites to the extreme.

Same here. My entire family on my mother side are christians. Luckily, most of them are nice people, but the rest is a bunch of sleazy, annoying and hypocritic b*****ds who are so brainwashed and into that "god/jesus" thing that if you say one "bad" word they'll doom you. I just ignore the bullsh*t they do, but it's still annoying.

I just recently strengthened my faith in the Lord, but I still am not a religious fanatic who will doom you to hell for dropping an F-bomb or two...

Well I've heard Montana before and it was great and one of my friends said this was his best album. I really like it. It's interesting and accessable (perhaps too accessable for Zappa)

Nah, 3 stars. Absolutely Free and Weasels Ripped My Flesh are the best in my opinion...but I never recommend Weasels to anybody.

Accessible it is, but Wazoo and Hot Rats are much better  I'd give this one 3.5 stars.
