I don't think taking anything from a song makes any logical sense in any sort of reasoning. Even in the theme song the order is different... Leo, Don does machines, raphael is cool but rude, michelangelo is a party dude... blah. If anything that would be a more logical age ordering mentally anyways. And yes... Leo is and always will be the "leader" of the group. He's always the most studious student, always is first to battle, and also uses the swords as his primary weapon which is symbolic of leadership... as compared to the bo, nunchucks, and sai...

I'm talking about society wanting things to be clear cut. And that is exactly why this forum is continuing (or was started to begin with for that matter).

What I meant was, when I said that Raph had middle child syndrome, you said that he didn't and then you referenced the song. The song had nothing to do with why I believe Raph has middle child syndrome. I was talking about the movie. But enough about the song and the movie.

You are right on all levels, things in life are not as clear cut as people would like them to be. However, that doesn't stop us from wanting and/or wishing things were. Structure, structure, structure. Who is the leader of the group? That is like saying who is the lead singer in a band (although picking out the lead singer is easier, even though he may not be the overall leader of the group but just the figure head.)

Any way, I gotta go study up for class now. Hopefully this discussion is going on strong when I get back online about 6 hours from now.
