I've got a Facebook page, but I've never put anything on it. I've got a presence on all the social networks, in fact, but I've never once sent a message. I'm there because, otherwise, someone's going to pretend to be me.

It's really nice meeting people after a concert. Still, it's very weird to be at the center of a group of 30 people all listening to what you're saying. When that group turns into 300 people, it goes on from weird. Some people revel in it, and I don't.

Reading is something I've really missed, not being able to enter people's worlds.
Robert Smith
Image
No, come to think of it, I don't think the Cure will end, but I can make up an ending if you want me to.
