Friday Music Thread – Tax Free

Thank you Patsy…although, there are times I think I may be a bit too open with my emotions…:-) People just bail from misery…it’s hard to blame them, of course…

Thanks KQ, you’re great my friend.
Yeah, why not edit that out…that’d be best maybe.

Thank you, Lise. I’m not sure I know KQ’s email, but you can have mine.

I don’t how you could possibly help, but I never turn down a ray of light.

Oh Lise, …where do I start? Everyone here knows my story and trust me…I’m in a very bad place. Wife is divorcing me, miss my daughters madly, haven’t worked in over a year, and once my house sells at a loss I will be homeless if I can’t find work. That’s why this song is my anthem. I know you didn’t know.

and by ‘losers’ I was simply referring to the line in the song, …”and no one wants you when you lose”…

I’ve lost so…too much…

So, trust me…I wipe away the tears, too…

And I wanted to post this as Peter Gabriel is my favorite artist on earth and with employment and my situation personally, …I thought perhaps this extraordinary song might inspire, lift up and carry all of us ‘losers’ out of the darkness…

Please listen to this: This is my life…seriously..then wipe away that tear…

A new low for Christian crazies

Ya’ know…for the longest time, I wanted to open a franchise that simply offered Christian ‘deprogramming’ to kids that were smarter than their egg and sperm donors.
I mean, if they can can insist that with the right ‘programming’, even homosexuals can overcome their ‘affliction’, then why couldn’t we help the world out on the other end?
I understand the need for religion for many and don’t disparage the good works of many Christian endeavors. That being said, I believe that kids should be allowed to have access to the church and decide whether they buy the whole package by themselves and not be forced to attend of be berated if they choose to ‘opt out.’
So much brainwashing takes place in these institutions and generation after generation falls prey to the guilt, the confusion and the isolation of having to believe.

Animal House Rules

That’s why it’s one of my top favs…
It’s not a blockbuster, of course…it’s a crazy comment on our society and a brilliant B-Movie. We will look back on this film and declare it non-fiction history….LOL

Planet Music Night Dedicated to Fools

Loved this one too for a long time. I also hadn’t heard that song I posted until I saw the film and it just moved me. (they cut the opening twangy bit…LOL) The scene it’s in is truly amazing. Definitely an acquired taste that song…Haha~

I wanted to repeat my past post about the film, Flashbacks of a Fool starring Daniel Craig (007) that just blew me away and I recommend highly.
Here is Roxy Music (Bryan Ferry) playing the theme song from the film. Listen to the twangy, flirty opener as he sings his desire to be with his love…then the intense relationship stage where he tells her how much he loves her to the long instrumental stage of their love and falling out of love until the end where he reflects back on those years together…simply amazing…

Knowledge is Power, Ignorance is ____

I remember once being totally high with a group of friends pondering the imponderable of universal existence, like most stoners do from time to time. We started with the typical…’Hey, maybe we’re all just bacteria in a larger life-form’…sort of thing and then moved on to multi-dimensions and that all things that ever happened are still happening, etc….that’s why we see ghosts…certain conditions occur that allow the veil to be lifted briefly and we see into other dimensions…blah….blah…
Of course, the older and more sober I have become, I hold a bizarre cache of ‘what ifs’ and personal theories about just about everything. This genre of study intrigues me above all others. I, too, had years of Catholic school that totally filled my life with..’huhs?’ and WTFs?
Is it not conceivable that since we are on the cusp of learning big universal secrets through the work at CERN that since we have a ‘concept’ of time travel that this project is the touchstone for that information? Does it not seem plausible, albeit a stretch, that if all eventualities exist, we have and continue to travel through time to alter, adjust and amend history? Perhaps in the future, school students take field trips into the past to simply observe history..ie, UFOs, USOs, and the like? I feel that some individuals either stay in out times to effect change without exposing themselves, think, Da Vinci, Nostradamus, Cayce and my favorite example, the Man in the Balcony known as The Professor during the writing and ratification of our Constitution. This is a wickedly weird story about a man that appeared in the balcony of the house chambers from time to time to give advice and direction to our Founding Fathers and actually steered the wording of the document. No one present ‘knew’ this man. They only referred to him as The Professor and after signing he was never seen again. He had no residence, no background yet was considered an ‘angel’ of the House. Pretty weird, huh? There are countless stories just like this throughout history if you look with open eyes.
Anyone wanna break out the bong? LMAO

I really, really thought the same thing. Suddenly in te middle of it all, I realized that I was as stranger in a strange land and that if this were another time, perhaps…they would be coming for ME. The religious right is off their chain…

I kknow gang…I’ll try to write something up although i don’t know if I have the words to describe the throngs of Promise Keepers I ran into today. I just wish there were a larger presence of pro-HCR supporters…yes they were here…scattered and smaller groups. I wonder if those Rs had been bused in as groups…had to been. Now I have a 14hr drive back with nothing to listen to except NPR and the echoes of countless, horrible remarks and eruptions of profound ignorance. Waiting to get on the metro back outta town to my truck. Boy I love DC….and this country. Rare…I know.

Hey!…Took some time to check out a few favorite sites. LOL…Nothing is going on now…the crowds have faded and the angry signs litter the Mall …like their hopes of killing this bill. I’ve enver seen such a group of people in my life…it’s 1 thing to see them on tv but damn…these people scare the hell outta me. I argued with some…wanted to bash others…but I remained cool and took it all in…watched them all get back on their buses from wherever…all pink and bloated from the the sun and their ignorant fury…These people had no idea what in the hell they were screaming about in the least…just a cause to spout hate…tragic…
