I've walked the Andes in Peru to Machu Pichu
I've elephant trekked in Northern Thailand
I've sailed on a Victorian Schooner around the Indian Ocean
BUT.........
None of these experiences has given me the pleasure I get from sex!
Please discuss
(more substance in that mod? eh?)
What about a damn good wank, when all other options are closed?
Or are you counting that as sex?
A hole in one at golf, Bob Dylan live,Sugar Ray leonard versus Marvin Hagler, England winning the World cup, finishing a marathon, returning from a war and a good roast dinner!
all very well. but for me, until you've performed in front of a great big crowd of total strangers; had them join in, singing your own words back at you; had them feeling what you're feeling; hanging on your every movement, gesture, word, inflection; heard them spontaneously burst into cheers at the end and known that they've got it, they've understood what you meant and they feel it too... that's the thing, that's the drug, it's like heroin for your ego, it's fucking brilliant. and nothing else will ever hit the spot once you've had that, and when you lose it it's like having your arm cut off.
it's elusive like runner's high or the perfect pill, you can do loads of gigs and only get it on a few really special occasions. it's happened to me exactly twice: once at a festival in newcastle (who knows the fish quay festival?), in front of a plaza full of pissed-up geordies who i thought were going to hate us but who really really went for it; once at an event in germany where (to cap it off) i was playing on a steinway grand in front of about 900 people. look this might look like unseemly bragging and i'm sorry. really, my penis is nothing special. and i haven't crossed oceans or climbed mountains or swum the english channel. but if i ever experience a high like that again, i will probably just want to stop the tape there.
oh, sex is really nice as well.
havin a whizz when you've been hangin on too long.
and a cart load of other stuff that I can't be bothered to .......'discuss'
the first gulp of cold lager after a hard day at work...priceless
what the hell is a one mile black?
yes your right there isn't really the right smiley for that, need a sort of 'lost eyes' smiley. I find it such a relief that me eyes dissapear right up into my head, I've taken to sticking some ear plugs in when I'm gonna do that so no light gets in through my ears cos the inside of a head is real messy......not a nice thing to see.
and your dead right about the laughter thing, as you say it don't happen that often ...call it getting the muttley's after Dick Dasterdly's dog, sort of a laugh that isn't a laugh more like some torn bagpipes being played by someone with asthma, whilst running up a flight of stairs.
