Moral of the story, be authentic, be your own artist, use your own voice.  Don't steal.  Anything.  Ever.  It's simple.  

Sunday is my favorite day of the week but I'm cranky and sleepy which irritates me after spending such a lovely evening with a dear friend musing about all of our favorite things: music, movies, writing, TV and humour.  I took a long, windy walk to try and clear out the cobwebs but it didn't work so well. Perhaps after a warm shower and some tea.  Given my mood it only seems natural I'd write something angst-ridden.  What better subject than plagiarism.  If you do it, you suck.  Write your own words, make your own music.  Keep your intellect off of what isn't yours.

In propinquity,

Nic
