The practice of medicine is an art, not a trade; a calling, not a business; a calling in which your heart will be exercised equally with your head.

William Osler

In many respects, Afghanistan represents a more difficult problem set.

Nor stony tower, nor walls of beaten brass,
Nor airless dungeon, nor strong links of iron,

Never lacks power to dismiss itself.

Saying you're a pop group isn't saying very much. Personally, when I think of pop, I think of instant, accessible, catchy songs - I definitely identify our music as that. I think that by writing pop, or instant, accessible or hopefully catchy music, it shoes you into bigger audiences because it seems that more people like that music. I think the possibilities are endless if you stick to a simplistic short song; the music can be as wild and bizarre as you want it to be, as long as at the core of it, there's something really strong.
Ed MacFarlane
