Permit Me This

Let me start by explaining something about permission. I asked for permission this morning to share some words of a co-resident. If that person didn't want to stand by her words, she shouldn't have given me permission.

To all you people who want to know what asking permission sounds like, it sounds like this: 'DAVID, CAN I HAVE YOUR PERMISSION TO RECORD THIS SONG?' If it's for music, you don't bring a finished tape of you playing my song and ask me what I think of it. That is not asking permission to record it. And I'm sure any lawyer would agree.

If it's for a blog you thought I deleted and forgot, it goes, DAVID, CAN I HAVE YOUR PERMISSION TO USE THIS BLOG?' You don't wait for me to hear the words coming from the mouths of TV personalities and for me to have to relive the often painful experiences that gave rise to my words.
