?I never intended to have some kind of a mystery about us; it?s just that I didn?t have anything to say
in the beginning. And now that it?s gone on long enough and there?s actually a story, in a way-- I mean,
still I think every night that you leave, I think, ?God, my life?s so f*&king boring compared to so
many people that I know, we don?t deserve to have a book written about us??
?" Kurt Cobain in the beginning of ?About A Son?
