        Obsession?  Yes.  Unhealthy?  Hell no!

        Hey, it's what they teach us to do in English class at high school -
what do you expect us to do?  IT'S A LONG TIME BETWEEN CONCERTS, BUB!  Last
tour was, oh, 7 years ago - what do you expect us to do in the meantime?
Count sheep?  (That can't "possibly be fun"!)
        The point to a great deal of PT's songs is in the lyrics.  Yes,
"Slit Skirts" is kinda catchy, but there's a meaning behind the words.  If
you miss the meaning, the song is just a catchy tune!

        Oooh, yes, THERE's a great time - listening to Nicholson bleat like
a goat and watching Ann-Margaret flunce around the screen.
        Not that I don't like the Tommy movie, but I'd much rather think
about something useful and mind-expanding - like the intense lyrics for
which Pete Townshend is so *famous* <hint hint!>.

        I think that maybe the last snort destroyed whatever few brain cells
you had left.
        "SORRY!"
