Have you ever been sitting in your car at a stop light when a deep deep base sounding boom boom began tickling at your ear holes? Then it continues to become louder and louder, so loud that it interferes with any thought process you might have running at the time and turning the up-curled sides of your lips to droop almost to your chin. As your mirror and some parts on your dash begin to vibrate a small car passes in front of you with all it's windows down, enabling you to determine the cause.

It's caused by some young person not wanting to face reality and to avoid such they spend what they can get their hands on buying speakers for their car. They then turn the thing up as loud as it will go to where they, nor anyone close, can possibly think. La la, without conscience thought there can be no reality.

Now if you can imagine sitting in a really huge room with about six of those cars down in front of you, all tuned to the same blasting sound and turned up to the max you might understand why I left the Rains show about to cry and with the fear of a nose bleed yesterday after only twenty minutes.

Went back to the car with an extreme headache and listened to the NASCAR race on the radio waiting for the pain to subside. Unfortunately, you can't dispel such an extremely induced instigator very fast. Such a huge load in, takes quite awhile to unload.

I did notice before I left that they knew that whoever stayed was certainly pretty stupid because they flashed applause signs so all the dumb-asses would know when to clap. Another sign was the $7 t-shirts that had a poor job of Rain printed across it that they were selling for $30 apiece. Geez, I even saw folks buying them!

I do think that subjecting a terriost to this show might be a better way to obtain information than water-boarding.

Overall, with the exception of the show, it was an enjoyable trip.
