Back and Motivated!

This will be my first post in over a week, so I will cover a lot of ground. A last-minute call from a fellow musician landed me an 8-11 gig last night at a local brewery. I quickly threw a playlist together of about seventy-five songs from all genres and showed up. It was aContinue reading “Back and Motivated!”

Legally Speaking

Just when I was starting to think our justice system had lost its balls, they dole out a whopping four-month sentence to another one of Trump’s sycophants. This is the guy (Steve Bannon) who told you to shove your subpoenas up your ass. I’m sure if he ever sees the inside of a prison, itContinue reading “Legally Speaking”

Holding My Breath

No new wars to report. No mass murders. No new charges levied against Trump. No stupid shit coming out of Marjorie Taylor Greene’s mug. I’m NOT holding my breath to see how many millions of dollars the next high school phenom will get to play football for one of the NCAA’s money machines. These kidsContinue reading “Holding My Breath”

Just Getting Started

In this, my seventieth decade on planet earth, I have decided to do something. Go figure. I will continue to learn the blues lead guitar and will play in several “blues jams” and open mics to see if I can put together one last band before I hang up my PRS. I will shave fiveContinue reading “Just Getting Started”

Fair Fight

I  was hooked watching some inane vid clip showing someone, I assumed to be Southeast Asian, and he was pouring what looked like kerosene on a net and then he lowered the net gently into the river. Immediately, he jerked his net upwards, and the damn thing was full of fish of varying sizes. WhatContinue reading “Fair Fight”

Squatters

People that inhabit a property that they have no legal claim to do so. Big news when we hear of squatters and the legal frustrations involved trying to extricate them. Aren’t we all just another form of squatter? We are here, free to live and do whatever we want until another more powerful entity decidesContinue reading “Squatters”

Maybe It’s Time

As of today, we have had forty-five presidents lead our country. Zero women have held that office, and the failed campaign of Hillary Clinton saved us all from just another one of the good ‘ole boys dressed in a Brooks Brothers power suit. In our zeal to show a fake sense of inclusion, we actuallyContinue reading “Maybe It’s Time”

What Did I Miss?

I just caught a glimpse of a picture of Nancy Pelosi and I love it because she always looks like she just set the doobie down and waved the smoke away with her hands, and then turned towards the camera. I really do like the salty bird, though. I like anybody who’s not afraid toContinue reading “What Did I Miss?”

Just a Hug

Sometimes the human touch, the connection made between two members of the species, is the answer. I have spoken of a mysterious young girl that lived across the street from my condo in North Las Vegas in the early eighties. I suspected she was in an abusive situation, but I had no concrete evidence. OneContinue reading “Just a Hug”
