"The Old Apartment"

Broke into the old apartment
This is where we used to live
Broken glass, broke and hungry
Broken hearts and broken bones
This is where we used to live

Why did you paint the walls?
Why did you clean the floor?
Why did you plaster over the hole I punched in the door?
This is where we used to live

Why did you keep the mousetrap?
Why did you keep the dishrack?
these things used to be mine
I guess they still are, I want them back

Broke into the old apartment
Forty-two stairs from the street
Crooked landing, crooked landlord
Narrow laneway filled with crooks
This is where we used to live

Why did they pave the lawn?
why did they change the locks?
Why did I have to break it, I only came here to talk
This is where we used to live

How is the neighbour downstairs?
How is her temper this year?
I turned up your TV and stomped on the floor just for fun
I know we don't live here anymore
We bought an old house on the Danforth
She loves me and her body keeps me warm
I'm happy here
But this is where we used to live

Broke into the old apartment
Tore the phone out of the wall
Only memories, fading memories
Blending into dull tableaux

I want them back

another friday already

science

One of the things that is thought as 'bad' science is actually superseded theory. That is, theories that were widely accepted at one time but have become obsolete as we learn more on the subject.

Our first example is miasma. At one time it was thought that many diseases were brought about by miasma..or vapours. This may sound rather silly today, but the concept of germs would have been considered silly at the time. And there is an innate human factor involved. People tend to be uncomfortable in heavy fogs, where vision is limited and sounds changed.So it made logical sense in an odd way to thing there must be a reason for it..that is the spread of diseases.
