To quote Billy Jack, iconic badass from the 70’s. When I see a story about a cow actually being arrested and imprisoned for murder, I try and accept that sometimes news stories are about crime, politics, sports, and sometimes it is about arresting and imprisoning animals. Granted, it is in South Sudan, but come on.Continue reading “I Try”

Go Quietly Into the Night
Bullshit. With maybe the lone exception being an escape from murderous pain over which you have no control. Otherwise, you don’t go anywhere quietly. You fight with every single ounce of energy that you can muster, and you are not out (or gone) until you have given your all. This life is far too beautiful,Continue reading “Go Quietly Into the Night”
Miracles
You either believe in them or you don’t. I believe in them. There some clinical people who need a scientific explanation for everything. They must quantify everything they see. I don’t get it. There does NOT have to be a reason for something. I am definitely not proposing that we just throw our hands upContinue reading “Miracles”
Confidence
Have confidence. Sounds easy enough. Confidence has been both boon and bane in my existence. I got every single job I ever had on the first interview. I was asked (and went to) four high school proms. I won a Student Council election when I put my name on the ballot on voting day. IContinue reading “Confidence”
Mainstream Maddogg
I guess, in spite of all my efforts, I am now officially a member of the mainstream pet-loving community. What started out as a cool gesture of offering to donate tips I make from my gigs to the local Humane Society now sees Bruiser, Murphy, and Maddogg as faces of a flyer which will beContinue reading “Mainstream Maddogg”
Pure Love
I experienced it last night at the Lucky Star Brewery. It was not the crowd I had hoped for, but you will catch every musician saying that at one time or another. My friend Sarah Denny showed up. She is a trip (and a budding ukulele star). It was when there were just a fewContinue reading “Pure Love”
Throwing Dice
For me, it all started watching my brother and his friends tossing dice against the wall. I didn’t really understand the whole game, but I could see you could accumulate a lot of cash in a very short period of time. I was interested. Very interested. So, naturally, I started my first crap game onContinue reading “Throwing Dice”
Taking Memorial Day Off
Will post a good one tonight. Enjoy this day and remember why you have it. Stay well.
It’s Wrong
Somewhere in the Cosmos there is a Karmic force that never let’s a wrongdoer get off scot-free. I truly want to believe in this Karma thing, even when I see dumbasses seem to get away with doing the wrong things with no regard for consequences. They will pay. Sooner or later. The Senate House MinorityContinue reading “It’s Wrong”
Lesson Learned?
I just wrote only a few short days ago I was getting sick about all the gun violence that is plaguing this country. We are broken. We are sick. Now, I want to issue a qualifier that I have only watched one TV channel, the one that is most closely with Democrats, so I doContinue reading “Lesson Learned?”
