Re: Two Tonys Revisited

I may have accidently posted part of this. If so sorry for the repeat.
In all the analysis of the coma/NDE, I keep coming back to the notion of a good and evil Tony (Kevin/Tony S). In this I am reminded about the real world two Tonys, i.e. Tony and Tony B.
Tony B has gone down all three of the paths that Tony S. faces.
- He went to jail (Tony S let him take the fall - he was having his first panic attack).
- He tried to go legit
- He was killed
It's interesting he is the one that showed up at the farmhouse. I think the entire Kevin F/Tony S issue is around what he did to his cousin. The dream sequence was because he knew he had to kill his cousin. That's how we saw how conflicted he was.
I also think his losing his teeth in that dream really highlights his losing power.
The young children in the coma/dream are more the age of Tony B's children. They need him. He may feel guilty that he's left Tony B's children fatherless.
I actually think Tony B. was the good Tony (Kevin). Their youths at the farmhouse; him holing up in the farmhouse and the reunion at the farmhouse with Tony B. as the man were interesting. That's where Tony B. (good Tony/Kevin) died and Tony S. came back.
I don't know if he will 'get' any of the spirituality of the coma/dream or just get more anger and rage for killing what was left about himself that was good.
Just a thought...I was traveling in Vegas (sin city) this week...and felt the power of good/evil. <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D">
