Alternate Facts

Despite popular belief, an alternative fact is not a lie, but a fact derived in an alternate reality or parallel universe. These facts are often hard to verify as all data and analysis doesn't leave the alternate reality or universe where it was derived. Furthermore most people are not able to access the alternate reality or universe, as it requires special abilities reserved for those with a wonton disregard for logic, and zero cognitive dissonance.

One Alternative

A Pennsylvania based acoustic-fusion band beginning in 1983 started by Jill Haley, Mark Oppenlander, and David Bozenhard. As quoted from their website:

"ONE ALTERNATIVE describes its sound as an acoustic fusion that blends the compositional form of classical music with the spontaneity of jazz and rock."

They got their name from co-founding member Frank McDermott. It comes down to the thought that their sound is one alternative to whatever different sounds one would want to listen to.

They currently have 5 members of the group:
--> Jill Haley-French Horn and Oboe
--> Mark Oppenlander-Guitar
--> Dave Bozenhard-Guitar
--> Cooke Harvey-Bass Guitar
--> Tony Deangelis-Drums

They also have 6 albums:
--> Greenlawn (1985)
--> Take Note (1988)
--> Shadows (1990)
--> Yet to be (1996)
--> Changes (1998)

praying at the porcelin alter

Similar to Driving the big white bus, only this time you are on your knees in front of the toilet puking up your lunch, everything you had to drink in the past 8 hours and part of your small intestine. You are also swearing to God or Jesus or the Devil or whoever that you will NEVER EVER NEVER get so fucking wasted again for the rest of your life, but probably will at the next party you are invited to next weekend.

Altoona

A town in Pennsylvania that people from out of town call quaint and people from the area know it as hell. If you take the bad part of a small city like Pittsburgh that is roughly the size and appeal of Altoona. Yes, the best definition for Altoona is, other than the metropolis of Blair County, a town with the largest drug problem per capita of any city in Pennsylvania, and the highest depression rate. Though, Johnstown was deemed the most depressing city, it was only because the people in Altoona were far too depressed to get out of bed and vote. Furthermore, Altoona is the only place on Earth where drive-by shootings are so pathetic a person can fire fifty bullets into a car and cause no damage to the driver.
I thought about going to Altoona but decided casturation seemed more appealing.
