				 In Closing, the final curtain 
 Well, it is indeed sad news, while I am not one to try to draw attention, I felt the need to express myself in the best way I know how...and well since I can't show you my art, or have you hear my music, I can share with you my words. 
 First off, let me say this site was a wonderful place, and I got the chance to see people's thoughts and ideas from across the world, in an open and non-judgemental way, a rare thing I think in this world.
 
 Second, I have gotten the chance to get to know a few of you very well, and I consider you (and you know who you are) my friends, and hope to keep in touch with you all. I only regret I was unable to get to know all of you in this way, as I find the Pixie's crew a great bunch of people. Now I will never get that chance, so I am sorry...
 
 With that I leave you with some words from Dave Pirner, from a song aptly named...without further adieu...*walks onto the bare stage, sits down on a stool and strums that intro G chord*
 
 I want to live with you
 In the fifth dimension
 In a dream I've never had
 'Cause I just can't live like this
 In a world like this
 I just want to kiss goodbye
 
 But we are not of this world
 And there's a place for us
 Stuck inside this fleeting moment
 Tucked away where no one owns it
 Wrapped up in a haste and by mistake got thrown away
 
 And oh, I am so homesick
 But it ain't that bad
 'Cause I'm homesick for the home I've never had
 
 And though I sometimes get annoyed
 I know just where I'm at
 This is my song of joy
 And now I know there are no secret tricks
 No correct politics
 Just liars and lunatics
 
 Though I would not take it personally
 It's just the child in me
 Who never really knew how much I had
 Woe is me, I am so homesick
 But it ain't that bad,
 'Cause I'm homesick for the home I've never had - "Homesick" by Soul Asylum
 
 This was a home away from home for many of us, for those I do not see, I wish you all the best, in all your travels. There is a home out there for all of us, may we all find it, take care everyone.
 
 *walks off the stage, guitar slung over the shoulder, and dissappears into the night*
