    A good story should provoke discussion,
    debate, argument...and the occasional
    bar fight.

    40. Quote a song lyric that sums up your year:
    Depeche Mode's Dream On

    As your bony fingers close around me
    Long and spindly
    Death becomes me
    Heaven can you see what I see

    Hey you pale and sickly child
    Youre death and living reconciled
    Been walking home a crooked mile

    Paying debt to karma
    You party for a living
    What you take wont kill you
    But careful what youre giving

    Theres no time for hesitating
    Pain is ready, pain is waiting
    Primed to do its educating

    Unwanted, uninvited kin
    It creeps beneath your crawling skin
    It lives without it lives within you

    Feel the fever coming
    Youre shaking and twitching
    You can scratch all over
    But that wont stop you itching

    Can you feel a little love
    Can you feel a little love

    Dream on dream on

    Blame it on your karmic curse
    Oh shame upon the universe
    It knows its lines
    Its well rehearsed

    It sucked you in, it dragged you down
    To where there is no hallowed ground
    Where holiness is never found

    Paying debt to karma
    You party for a living
    What you take wont kill you
    But careful what youre giving

    Can you feel a little love
    Can you feel a little love

    Dream on dream on
