Month: November 2025

My bithday is next month, it’s been twenty years since my University Graduation.

When you live in a big city maybe cycles repeat for students etc., with growing up etc.

So years later, when I see these big mobs outside like in Halifax…it’s reminds me of a metaphorical story.

The problem is, that it’s not true the metaphor.

I mean, these mobs remind me of my growing up then I’m past all that.

The joke is I won all these court cases about those issues.

I mean, I’m not facing some court blockage like people working and growing up today.

That leaves you stuck in some ruined income bracket.

So I see this metaphor outside, that must be what it is.

I mean, it must be a common occurence.

To try and say the point of it…

Can you imagine a band like Metallica or something, in their origin story.

People outside trying to live that story about them growing up in High School and playing in a band, assuming all these roles and pretending they are James Hetfield starting out in a band.

That’s the metaphor.

I get the metaphor, except the person doing it was never there.

Like, it was someone outside the class who heard about it third party doing it.

When in reality that was at K-tel’s music class over in Rochester.

I mean it’s your press for the High School.

The reason they do that.

Then I spent all my time at Action Park back then every summer because I had family in Rochester.

Then I get this…you’re sleeping around with all these people at the Park and partying all the time when AIDS came out.

My point is, how can you be Metallica without sleeping around with people at Action Park when AIDS came out?

Nobody cares that I know, excecpt people growing up today.

They hate all that, I mean I was emancipated back then as a minor like during Calgary ’88.

We used to drink and do everything back then on trips I went to AG Ballie Elementary School in New Glasgow.

My point is we had drinking money back then and people like metal bands didn’t.

So I used to party with them back then down at the park and used to bring licqour and stuff…like from my parents money for my allowance.

For the Ski trips and stuff, like at the rail road.

That’s why I was allowed drinking and doing all that underage because I was emancipated.

Then on my Ski trips bands and in the Summer bands used to hang off my allowance at the party…that’s how I got into Heavy Metal.

Headbangers ball was there all the time.

So the metaphor today, that sounds like a joke from James Hetfield for some magazine they are all copying.
