Hope Neil's okay. He's an awesome songwriter and musician, IMO. One of the best of the 60s folk musicians, no doubt.
Discuss.

That has to suck.

I remember there was this girl at my school who died of a brain aneurysm when I was in the 6th grade.

Some very sad stuff... there needs to be more public concious about diseases of the brain.

Neil Young is awesome. He was the only musician to expose the racist south as it truly is. Sure, the North isn't so great, and there is a hell of a lot of persecution, but not nearly as bad as the south. Fuck the South and Fuck capitalists.

Maybe that explains his support for Reagan and Bush II, he just needed brain surgery.

Actually I think he'd recently recovered from that, hopefully this won't cause a relapse.



From the article:
During minimally invasive neuroradiology procedures, doctors insert a catheter through the groin and into the brain...

Are they trying to say that men's brains are in their groins?

No...that means they are taking a catheter trough the groin AND the brain, seperately, not as the same thing. Like; They're having two catheters, and not one going trough the groin up to the brain! Anyone could understand that? ;)
