This is what I look like while trying to understand Pete Townshend's Blog site.
Pete, look into my eyes!

About Me
- Dan L.
- In California, enjoy hiking & mountaineering. I work in the shipping dept. of a major automotive company. I have an A.A.Degree. I am a former aerospace inspector, multiple weapons systems. Am very much about teaching my children about life. They have been raised hanging around Edwards Air Force Base watching the SR-71 Blackbird in it's final years, visiting the Grand Canyon, redwood trees at Big Basin & Big Sur, Catalina Island, cruising up to the magnificent Sierra Nevada mountains, Sunday Mass at many locations -- a California Mission, monastaries, etc. My sweet & beautiful wife, Cruz, means the world to me. I thank God for bringing her to me and blessing us with 4 daughters. Listening to The Who has restored my interest in learning to play guitar. I really enjoy the style of Pete Townshend. That's where I am TRYING to go. I would like to thank Pete Townshend, a man I have only seen on stage, but NOW HAVE MET!..., for putting his novella on a blog. It has prompted me to enter the blog world...a strange, odd place. "Sickness will surely take the mind where minds can't usually go." -from The Amazing Journey/Tommy, by Pete Townshend.

Hehe, perseverance! Just popped in to thank you for the comments in my blog. I do agree with you on the lyrics of Christmas, that they capture childhood excitement and anticipation in a really fantastic way - though there is a disturbing element in the form of a judgement from the grown ups: Tommy is abnormal, why can't he be like the other children? I like a lot of music but can't remember many that can capture what is essential to childhood and growing up as well as Pete. I suppose they have forgotten the child in them.
