Neil Peart's 10 Rules for Success 1) Earn your audience. 2) Be restless. Find a way to not be bored. READ 3) Get out of your comfort zone. 4) Learn from others. 5) Create what you like. 6) Infect people with your fire. Inspire others. 7) Don't read reviews. 8) Create your ideal (imaginary) audience. 9) Find our inspiration. 10) Never stop experimenting.
I get sentimental whenever a brilliant mind leaves us. Neil Peart was a brilliant writer. If you didn't know he wrote the lyrics to all the RUSH music. He was a avid motorcyclist. He was a lifelong learner. We wrote several books too.

Question for @osnafrank, is it required in Germany to be a fan of Rammstein? Been getting back into them, I forgot just how good this band is! Yap, if you are not, and they find out, you have to watch a 24hour Heino (google it) concert on DVD. The new Rammstein album is great! Checked out Heino … man … that's hair alright! I wonder if he's a Rammstein fan.

But regardless, so do Pink Floyd and I love Floyd, but that might be me saying something about my own politics! Enough of this talk though, no hot topics allowed! Frank has spoken on this!

Question for everyone: is IT, the novel, worth having a go? I love Steve but I tend to avoid his more well-known works in favour of novels that I find interesting.

Across Europe, many protested Rush shows, mainly because on their 2121 album they thanked the writings of Ayn Rand, who was a right wing philosopher, and the album is inspired by her work.

Definetly a must read for King, I'd say it's a more character-driven coming-of-age tale that's also a horror novel. Great characters, word building, and one of his most memorable antagonists. Cluttered with memorable moments that'll stick with you.

I am actually going back to school next week. I have 2 degrees already. I'm just doing a certificate program at a technical institute. Going back to school is really easy when you don't have kids or a lot of distractions in your life. I don't have a ton of friends who would be begging me to go out clubbing when I should be studying. I'm a lot more mature and settled down now than when I was a teenager.

Going to a technical institute sounds very practical - hope you enjoy it!
