this makes sense. i wondered how it'd affect things. if this is true, then
i'm glad they made the decision.

as one newly married and seeing how hard it is to balance his school life
which takes 3 hours of driving plus a full day against my working full
time, i know it's hard to keep a living relationship

must get harder being in the public eye....

this actually makes me respect them. before they wer ejust musicians i
liked the music they did and liked that they wrote it and aspired to true
art.

i respect them more as people now.
