I Felt So Painfully Isolated

At Least I Hate Myself As Much As I Hate Anybody Else.

As A Kid Growing Up In The 1950s I Became Acutely Aware Of The Changes Taking Place In American Culture And I Must Say I Didn't Much Like It. I Witnessed The Debasement Of Architecture, And I Could See A Decline In The Quality Of Things Like Comic Books And Toys, Things Made For Kids. Old Things Seemed To Have More Life, More Substance, More Humanity In Them.

The Bible Was Not Written For Entertainment Purposes, So It's A Real Hodgepodge And A Compendium Of All Kinds Of Stuff.

I Still Can't Spend A Lot Of Money On Records At Collector Prices. There's Something In Me That Just Won't Allow Me To Do That. But I Will Trade My Artwork, Which I Know Is Worth Thousands Of Dollars.

Yeah, I Was A Child Of American Popular Culture.
