    Ever been in a situation where you feel like an alien of sorts?

    I spent Christmas with my flatmate and his family. His family are older folk of about 70. They aren't at all dumb and are still very alert and active but live in a small town and live their own life and not much from the outside world in any real depth. So, when I woke up on Christmas morning, turned on my radio and found out that James Brown died I mentioned it over breakfast since in my world that is rather big news. They looked at me blankly and didn't really know he was. Eventually his mother asked me if he went by the stage name 'little Richard'. They are good people I just felt like I was a visitor from a different planet.

      Do you ever feel like you just landed
      On this earth?
      See the creatures all do their dances
      Back and forth
      You get restless and then you join them
      On the floor
      Suddenly it's tomorrow
      It's not today anymore
      You talk to the ceiling every day
      The speakers are shaking
      Why do i hear you okay?
      They're playing soul at the wrong speed
      It sounds right now
      What are you doing to me?
      D'you ever feel like what we call real life
      Is not so real?
      Tripping up on the same old problems
      You had last year
      Well we'll pretend it's another planet
      Not so uptight
      The stars are shining above the city
      Every night
      They come every night

              Walking down the street as a white guy in Lagos, Nigeria was one time. Also when I had finished beating up a mugger in a backstreet in Nairobi and I turned around to see about 20 locals staring at me....

              Both times I felt pretty alien.

                          My father taught me to never make the mistake of using myself as an example of normal. I'm passing this advice along to you.

                              Sometimes I feel like an alien, but then I remember this is MY planet and YOU are the aliens.
