Stupid people

I heard a folk rock song tonight about how god made stupid people too. I used to think the whole “I hate stupid people!” thing was funny, but then I realized that it’s not possible for everyone to hate stupid people. Statistically, some of the people who hate stupid people must themselves be the very [...]

Hot times

Well, I had a great weekend. I worked with the Sound Elevation boys on a sound gig at the Park Tavern all day Saturday. Five tribute bands, a packed house, and a long day for the sound crew. Money is money though, folks! I completed the fastest pack up of a huge PA ever, goading [...]

A power play

Good god, our power is out. Sweet Jesus, Nooo! Our apartment complex apparently was in the process of migrating a bunch of their users over from one power company to another, and they decided that the best way of doing that was just to turn off all the people who weren’t on the new system [...]

Scotland on the shitlist

Okay I am officially pissed at Scotland. I have been reviewing songs over at Garageband.com. You have to review 30 of them in order to earn the credits needed to upload your own song and get it reviewed. I have done about 10 of them. Some of the ones I had to review were pretty [...]

Mom passed away 12

True to his word, dad woke me up at 6:30 on the dot. He’s that kind of dad. I lay on the fold out bed listening to him and his partner Steve readying some breakfast for us. I got up and pulled on a pair of pants. It’s no use bucking for more sleep, I’m [...]

Mom passed away 11

Once I was in the car with mom in Atlanta. She was driving me to Target to buy me a rice cooker for my birthday present a few years ago. She pulled her big Ford Explorer into the parking deck, and swooped into the handicap lot near the door. She misjudged the distance, and bonked [...]

Mom passed away 10

I got through the viewing. I had to make two more trips out to the car for shots of whiskey, but I made it through. I thanked everyone who spoke to me for coming. Some of my oldest friends came out to see me, even though we haven’t been in good touch over the years [...]
