A Life Lasting Ego Trip.

I was reading in the news yesterday about this man who pleaded �entrapment� in a drug case cause the good looking undercover officer begged the man to �party� with him. The ambiguousness of the term �party� was at the heart of the argument. But here�s the thing. During the trial the judge was asked to making a ruling on the undercover officer�s looks. To which she replied �and for the record he was a very attractive man�� Which she followed up by granting a legal finding on the man�s attractiveness. Talk about an ego trip! I mean ok, so your bust gets thrown out. You now have the legal right to call yourself attractive. It�s a story that could get you free drinks and stoke you ego for rest of your life.


Well the best day of the workweek as arrived, Friday. Good ole Friday. And to celebrate the week�s closing we got a rather large going out dancing tonight at the Polyesthers in DC. Should be a supremely decent time. I haven�t been there on a Friday night, but their Saturdays are kicking after 11. And anyways we got a good crowd coming just in of ourselves.


Today�s Lessons

Quick meanings behind U2 songs

1. Staring at the sun -> an obvious allusion to the Plato�s cave allegory.

2. �40� -> (see Psalm 40)

3. Stay (far away so close) -> the title song the European movie (by Wim Wenders) which redone in the US and turned into �City of Angles�.

4. Numb -> among other ideas, supports the use of condoms.

5. One Tree Hill -> An eulogy for a friend of theirs.

Please note: U2 prides itself in producing songs with intentional multiple meanings and themes the above are just a sampling.

Take care,

-Fritz
