Man I'm ready for school to start just to have something to occupy my mind. All I've done this week is play games. Hell that's what I did New Year's Eve too. I went over to a friend's and brought two of my computers and my Nintendo Wii. Wii sports is a lot of fun when you have more than one controller. It was an okay night. We played Starcraft too.
Today I've been playing an old Sega Genesis game called Phantasy Star 2. Its neat. They do a lot of things that weren't the norm for a game in the last 80's.
I really want to go do something today but I don't know what. I'm kind of sick of people to be honest with you. Well I say that. I'm sick of some of my friends. It seems like there is this three year mark I hit with good friends and then they're gone. I really don't get it.
Man I'm too old to be single. I'm 26. Everyone looks like a high schooler or they look taken to me. That gets old.
Well I hope everyone had good holidays! I'm going to quit bitching now.

I agree they were revolutionary and excellent. To this day I find it amazing that Queen became famous by appealing to the hard rock guys, people that listen to Lynyrd Skynyrd and such. Queen helped bring a lot of theatrics and showiness into rock-and-roll and made it more interesting.
I am confused about if the hard rock guys that bought Queen records back in the 70's were oblivious to all the gay stuff or if they thought it didn't matter. I think a lot of them were oblivous to it, but that's hard to believe. But those were different times, there were no gay characters on television yet, etc. etc. I do remember when it became public that Freddie Mercury had AIDS (the term HIV+ was not common language back then) that sales dropped off here in the U.S. they all tried to keep it a secret because they knew this would happen.
Another related observation, when I was growing up in the 80's, where I came from, you were considered gay if you listened to Duran Duran but you were cool if you listened to Styx. But musically Duran Duran is less flamboyant. I guess it was the makeup that mattered.
P.S. Have you ever listened to Muse? They remind me of Queen.
