This is absolutely unbelievable, Kyle.  I don't EVER think about Brian Wilson, but today of all days, I was listening to Barenaked Ladies CD, and the song Brian Wilson came on.  There's a verse about "I'm gonna lie on my bed, like Brian Wilson did..".  I know he went into some sort of self-imposed hibernation, and I always thought after that perhaps he was schizophrenic or at least depressed, but clearly a creative genius.   Interesting post..and talk about timing!   Just on the drive in to work here this morning!   But then again, I'm not sure there is such a thing as "coincidence".
