Age will ruin you

School let out yesterday at roughly 1:50 for me. I finished my last final, I said goodbye to campus, and I wondered around smelling of shit and happiness. The only thing I could really focus on was the scene from "Dazed and Confused" when the kids rush out of class to get home before the Juniors turned Seniors beat them senseless. That scene is enhanced by Alice Cooper's "Schools Out for Summer" and that song was just perfect for the moment. Being lost in the framework of an academic I began analyzing Cooper, and what thirty years has done to the legendary madman. Ozzy did the babbling idiot thing, Keith Richards is still as badass today as he was back then, and almost everyone else worth mentioning is dead, but what about old Alice? Well he turned to golf. Sadly our snake wielding, makeup wearing, satanic force from hell has become an old man, and has lost his way no matter what he has to say about it.
