It is in changing that we find purpose.

We do not stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing.

May all your ups and downs be in bed.

The secret to success is to offend the greatest number of people.

Love me or hate me, just don't forget my name.

The only thing that is permanent is change.

Rock and roll all nite and party everyday.

The further one travels the less one knows. - Lao Tzu

I can resist everything but temptation.

I have hope and faith, and that’s more than just the name of a couple of strippers from Albuquerque.


Babylon A.D. - The Hammer Swings Down

We were riding the neon trail between
Heaven and Hell
And she acted like she loved me
But I knew her too well

But that ain't the end of the story
She thought that she'd just slide away
Don't ever hang a man by the end of his rope
'Cuz he's sure to explode and you know you will pay

When the hammer swings down!
Like the thundering sound
Of a ship hitting ground

When the hammer swings down!
Like a wild cat strikes
I'll be hunting tonight for you
Baby for you!

Well she thought she was something special
Better than me
And she danced with my heart and desires
Shattered my dreams

But that ain't the end of the story
Like a snake she thought she'd slide away
I was played for a fool for her emotional pleasure
Now I'm gonna strike, she's gonna break

When the hammer swings down!
Like the thundering sound
Of a ship hitting ground

When the hammer swings down!
Like a wild cat strikes
I'll be hunting tonight for you
Baby for you!

Whoa!

Swing, swing, swing, swing!

When the hammer swings down!
Like the thundering sound
Of a ship hitting ground

When the hammer swings down!
Like a wild cat strikes
I'll be hunting tonight

When the hammer swings down!
Like the thundering sound
Of a ship hitting ground

When the hammer swings down!
Like a hand through your heart
Gonna rip you apart

When the hammer swings down!
