in ohio, disc one, does the song [/I]b.p.d. stand for borderline personality disorder?

from the lyrics i can gather that
yes, it is actually describing episodes within a life
lived with b.p.d.

but, otherwise, i am confused!

anyone know the context

This might be a question better asked here. Although they aren't answering much while on tour, and in the middle of a move.

Interviewer:

On the subject of specific songs: What does the title of the first song "B.P.D." stand for?

Linford:

It stands for Borderline Personality Disorder.

That song is sort of a mental note that Karin wrote, but really it’s a note for both of us. We have a habit of trying to rescue people in ways that are probably counterproductive. It’s been a process of learning that not everybody who cries “Save me!” is interested in changing their life in any significant way. We’ve had to learn that through a couple of difficult experiences, but good and necessary experiences.

Our songs are in some ways moving away from the confessional thing and into more of a narrative approach. Music for us involved a lot of internal work on our records. Now some of that work is done and we’re looking around and coming to grips with the fact that all is not right with the world and we need to engage.

Thanks Keith.

thank you, keith

Wow, and I thought no one would know that without having read that. Crazy.

my "Border's Panini Disaster" post on the old Actwin list still cracks me up.

alas, that site is dead.
