Zoos

I hate them. Not for what they are, but what they represent. Man’s dominion over the animal world. Sometimes I get so stoned that I wish there were this benevolent large animal that has just had it up to here and has had enough. I hope this animal would spend a few days out inContinue reading “Zoos”

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”

Big Wind

Today’s post continues on with a reading from my book EMOTIONS: Not your Mama’s ABC’s! The preface for the letter “N” and a short story titled Powerless illustrating the emotion needy. Let me know… The title of my short story is another emotion which I find frightening…an inability to control your circumstances. Power beyond yourContinue reading “Big Wind”

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?”

No win situation

I’ll get this rant out of the way now, because, quite frankly, this is like going up against Iron Mike Tyson in his prime, like no way you win. As a business model, the oligarchy of pharmaceutical companies projects to well over 500 billion dollars a year, and with the global pandemic, that number isContinue reading “No win situation”

Swimsuits

I did it again. I got stoned and posted the wrong blog yesterday with a song that I play, so here is another one from The New Riders. You are wearing your original swimsuit as you are reading this blog. That’s right. No suit. Au natural. Your first opportunity to swim is sometimes by necessity,Continue reading “Swimsuits”

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”

Masks

We all wear masks; it just depends on what kind of mask. To fight this pandemic, we all need to be wearing protective masks until the virus is contained and eliminated. But what about the mask under the mask? I’m talking about the fake smile mask worn by disingenuous people. The wan smile frozen onContinue reading “Masks”
