Why does Ginger Fish Take it Sweet?

We Answered:

This is my take on it... Ok, when you join MM, you have to be willing to go all the way. I think Manson incorporates the violence he did into onstage performance b/c it was essential to his philosophy at the time.

But why toward GF, you may ask? Well, from what I read, GF and MM didn't like each other at first, for whatever reason. Maybe MM was sort of challenging GF because he thought the guy was too weakwilled and didn't want another Daisy or Zim Zum. Maybe he was sort of saying,"Ok ************, you wanna be in this band with me? Can you take what we're about? Are you willing to go deep?" Marilyn Manson is something you have to live and breathe; MM expected everyone to participate in the band's ideology, which included all sorts of depravity and abuse.

I think GF took what MM dished out b/c obviously he knew what the band was about from the beginning. They abused each other, their fans,themselves. They wanted to see how far they could go in all aspects of things. Obviously Ginger Fish, a drummer that went to school for music and even played jazz at one time, didn't just decide to audition for MM b/c he likes hard rock with a dark bent. He is still in the band because he wanted to be a part of Marilyn Manson, and that is very different from playing in a hard rock, industrialish band. There are tons of bands he could have played with, but he chose MM, and that means that he expected the abuse.

I think Ginger Fish has some sort of a death wish. I see him as someone who will play and play and play til his arms drop off. I doubt he likes being hit in the head or being made to hop on one foot, but he obviously values the experience of MM as a whole and is willing to take the abuse. I think he feels the need to test himself in an extreme way. I don't think any other bands that made it as big as MM would pose the possibility of serious injury toward him every night. He likes the risk, he likes the extremism of the band. At least, that's my take on it.

On a further note, he seems very sweet in person. Manson is sort of a dick, maybe he likes messing with GF? Who knows! At any rate, GF is an excellent drummer and kicks total ***!!!

Personal injury lawsuit against the city of New York, How much more time am I looking at to settle?

We Answered:

This seems to be a long time for a lawsuit of any size. You are coming close to 7 years. If you are having questions regarding compensation consider the following costs and damages. Medical expenses, physical therapy, hospital visits, loss of wages, pain and suffering & ongoing med. expenses.

As for time line: if you are still getting ongoing medical treatment perhaps that is the reason why your attorney hasn't settled etc. Link below on steps: http://injurymaryland.com/personal-injury-lawsuit-funding/

Go to the middle of the article and it explains the different steps. It's case by case but I'm sure your attorney has a reason why its been going on for so long.

Good luck...

Exercise science is a common degree to apply for grad school for PT. FyI--The entry level degree for PT is a DPT not a PhD.
