Can You Believe it?

She was one crazy bitch and I was nuttier than Cooder Brown. Oil and water. She was the very worst type of woman for me: a woman with a voice that insisted on using it and could not and would not, be ignored. I won’t be ignored, Dan! I like to think of her asContinue reading “Can You Believe it?”

Now Hiring

I see the signs everywhere. Everybody needs help to climb back up on the horse and ride again. I am infused with hope every time I see one. Hell, a part of me still reacts and that little stupid voice inside me says “you can still do it. You should apply.” I have been officiallyContinue reading “Now Hiring”

Thoughts on a Sunday

I woke up this morning to the song Old Habits by Hank Williams Jr. bouncing around my noodle. I fired up a bowl and played the song so the day just got better for me. I used to love watching the old CMT videos. I learned many a song from them. Learning and playing C&WContinue reading “Thoughts on a Sunday”

Jam or Jelly?

Okay, your toast just popped up all golden brown and warm and ready to spread. What is your choice? If it is fresh-churned butter, you might not use anything else before macking out. A friend of mine uses a loaf of French bread sliced in half, 1/2# of butter, poi, topped with chunky peanut butter,Continue reading “Jam or Jelly?”

Is NOTHING Sacred?

Mondays I play a song. Here is an Eagles song. An unruly crowd. Out of control people desecrating an iconic place. Old Trafford, the holiest of places in English football. What the fuck is the matter with you? Who do you think you are, Americans? I much prefer soccer (football) hooligans to the destructive idiotsContinue reading “Is NOTHING Sacred?”

Since I spent most of the day bringing my wife back to the land of the living, I did not get a chance to tape my next audio installment. So I am doing it now and as soon as I finish off this celebratory bowl of Sativa, I will read the Preface for the letterContinue reading “My Bad”

Happy Holidays

Today marks two special holidays: Karen’s birthday and 4/20. 4/20 you ask? The “official” day of celebration of the counter-culture. Oooooh. Sounds spooky. Counter culture. Since I am able to smoke pot all day and night if I so desire, it is no big whup for me to have a smoke session on a Tuesday.Continue reading “Happy Holidays”

WOMAN among women

My song today as promised is a Bob Dylan song, Don’t Think Twice, It’s Alright: Today we examine the female side of the music equation. The bar was set by a songwriter’s production, chart songs and hits, album sales, and also the scope of their influence on their audience. Lyrics were examined to see howContinue reading “WOMAN among women”
