Connecting With Dan O’Neil

Lyrics from Dan’s song, “Sleeping In”

Last week I had the strangest dream
where everything was exactly as it seemed
there was never any mystery
of who shot John F Kennedy
It was
just a man with something to prove
slightly bored and severely confused
he steadied his rifle with his target in the center
and became famous that day in November
Don’t wake me, I plan on sleeping
Don’t wake me, I plan on sleeping in
Don’t wake me, I plan on sleeping
Don’t wake me, I plan on sleeping in

Lyrics from “Soon You’ll See”

I used to dream I’d be a writer
telling stories about girls like you
About your imperfections
those beautiful things you never knew
if I were a writer
you’d be so flattered to hear my words
Record you with my pencil
memorialize you for all the world
Dreams may not be everything they seem to be
but you and I will be together soon, you’ll see.

Lyrics from “For The Taking”

I sit here and reflect on my week.
It’s clear that I’m so fortunate
The whole world is mine, mine for the taking
all this you see, belongs to me
It’s all mine, it’s all mine, it’s all mine
and I have nothing to worry about
I know that everything’s going to work out
I’m carefree and reckless and young
and life is just waiting for me
yes, life is just waiting for me

Dan was killed at Virginia Tech on Monday. For now, you can still listen to his music at his website, ‘Dan O’Neil Memorial Fund‘

Dullest Blog In The World

Just popping in to plug The Dullest Blog In The World, as an example of how concept can be a good substitute for content …

Standing in the middle of the room
I was standing at a central point in the room. The walls were all at approximately the same distance from me. I continued to stand there for a few moments.

Too much.
