You're reading signs on Churches, 75Stingray. That's kinda sad in it's own way, isn't it? Not that I don't do it, too. There are, pretty much, more churches than houses in these parts.

There are Nerds and Geeks out of high-school. It's only because most of us have perceptions of what is cool and uncool that we understand that it is not nice to walk up to a geek (or a nerd) and call him/her a geek (or a nerd) to his/her face. It may, actually, be because of our acceptance of Politically Correct Values, though. Anyhow... I don't call them names to their faces, but I know 40 year old Geeks and Nerds when I meet them. If they like Mai-Tais, or have never had them and say they might like to try one, I might invite them over. Then again, I might not. Who knows.
Punks were just Geeks with cool shirts. WERE, of course, is the important word there. Does anyone who made enough money off of Punk to still be a Punk who is still alive deserve any level of respect or admiration? Yes! For what good music they ever created! Has any real Punk produced a good song in the last 20 years? Uh... No.
Why do you think we're all listening to Exotica?
