Pete Townshend

Besides an unlikable guy with lots of money and a talent for playing guitar (and not beating someone with one as a weapon, since that allegedly got him knocked out) who would Pete Townshend be without the Who? Is it somehow unfair to Pete Townshend to think or say any of that? It's possible to respect somebody's ability/talent (not underestimate their capability) while having no respect for who and what they are as a human being.

Roger Daltry makes it sound like he wouldn't be anybody in particular without the Who, but really the Who was still a likeable band with him as the face of the band (before the 80s). It hasn't been the same since Pete Townshend started convincing everyone else in the band that he was the best thing to ever happen to the Who, and that nobody else was good enough to question him. At least Roger Daltry seems like a guy who had some heart.

Example of respecting an ability but not the person with the ability- The subject knew the king/queen was capable of executing him or worse, and though he was cautious about what he said and did, he still knew he didnt owe the king/queen or anybody else any respect.

Home

Home isnt somewhere you have to establish, re-establish, prove, or justify anything. When you're home, you know where home is, and where home is not, the same thing goes for when you're away from home. You also notice where the true home of others is, and where it is not.

Home is home no matter how far you go or where you move to. There is no welcoming somebody to their own neighborhood, for the ones trying to be as inflammatory as possible. They are already where they've always belonged.
