Everything is a lie. Sell the car. Sell the house. Leave your family. Blow sh*t up.

Whoah, you motherfuckers would not believe the life I have lead. So mundane. So pointless.

ok fuckers

I may not get back to this pot of filth I once kept up.

The good news is I have a new pot of filth; that I actually started (before this one)but never followed through on...typical.

Kudos BlackBaby. I'll review the BSS first as I am listnening to it right now.

Imagine if an album was allowed to go into the areas it's momentum carried it irregardless of genre-ification by hack ass CD Reviewers? This CD reminds me of the importance of being an artist first. It wanders around with spacey smoothness. The unusul thing is that it still retains a 'sound' throughout the work that reigns in the tendency for the artists to have short attention spans. It whispers, it caws, it's a vocal pallate traced from J Mascis to Thom Yorke. It taps 22 feet in a well placed space.

I have to express my utter ignorance of 99.95% of these artists (I'd heard of Dr John, but I think it was in an 80's Schlitz Malt Liquor Bull tv commercial). Apparently the source for this was vinyl, which I found intriguing. Mostly all in great shape! Ah the bacon, reminds me of back in the day when my ears still worked pretty good. For a guy who has learned most everything he knows about funk from Terry Gross, and NPR this was a welcome blast of music I would have no doubt never ventured to on my own. I was a little concerned when I saw Iko Iko because I knew too many deadheads with dogs or children named that. But this rework of "Jock O Mo" is free of noodle-y hippy guitar and sticks to the percussion/vocal thang. Overall on all these tracks the guitars are more supa-fly than granoldies. It's got a beat and you can zoot to it.

BUSH ADMINISTRATION RESORTS TO LIES ABOUT 9/11


Here are four other explicit lies that the Administration has told over
the last few days:

LIE: National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice claimed that Clarke
"chose not to" (5) voice his concerns about the Administration's
counterterrorism policy. But Clarke sent an urgent memo to Rice in January 2001 asking
for a Cabinet-level meeting about an imminent Al Qaeda attack (6). The White
House itself admits top Bush officials rejected Clarke's request, saying they
"did not need to have a formal meeting to discuss the threat." (7)

LIE: White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan yesterday denied
Clarke's charge that the president ordered the Pentagon to begin drafting plans
to invade Iraq immediately after 9/11. (8) But according to the Washington
Post,  "six days after the attacks on the World Trade Center and the
Pentagon, President Bush signed a 2-and-a-half-page document" that
"directed the Pentagon to begin planning military options for an invasion of
Iraq." (9) This was corroborated by a September 2002 CBS News report which
reported that, immediately after 9/11, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld told
"aides to come up with plans for striking Iraq." (10)

LIE: Deputy National Security Adviser Stephen Hadley denied Clarke's
charge that there was an imminent domestic threat against America from Al
Qaeda, saying, "All the chatter [before 9/11] was of an attack, a potential Al
Qaeda attack overseas." (11) But, according to the bipartisan
Congressional report on 9/11, "In May 2001, the intelligence community obtained a
report that Bin Laden supporters were planning to infiltrate the United
States" to "carry out a terrorist operation using high explosives." The report
"was included in an intelligence report for senior government officials in
August [2001]." (12)

LIE: Bush National Security spokesman Jim Wilkinson claimed that "it
was this president who expedited the deployment of the armed Predator" (the
unmanned plane) (13). But, according to Newsweek, it was the Bush
Administration who "elected not to relaunch the Predator" and who did
not deploy the new armed version of it despite "the military having
successfully tested an armed Predator throughout the first half of 2001." (14)

errrrrrrrrrr

So this weekend I: (in no certain order)

• Tried to tell my friends my need for some type of pulse in ye olde band activity. It didn't work...may have backfired...
• Figured out to not only make both outputs of the beat up drum machine work... then I figured out how to program it (turns out reading the instructions works)...
• Also got it to MIDI to my old D-5 synth that has better drummy sounds.
• Recorded/mapped out SILK drums. Recorded the acoustic gtr part (mine)
• Did many vocal tries.
• Got indecisively diatonic and drunk.
• Asked mommy and daddy for $ to survive. (yes, I am nearly 40...)
• Yelled at my SO for no apparent reason other than being a fuqhead.
• Watched a fabulously funny DVD (SORDID LIVES).
• Read this Syd Barrett bio.

As one of my psychology profs once said, It's a shame we can't sterilize everyone and make people take a test to get the antidote... Yes, we both realized how fascistic that sounds but considering how many trainwreck parents there are out there...

I just found this CD when I was cleaning up my cubicle. My 4 yo liked it. I loved it.

Shel: "...sister for sale..."
my kid: "why is he trying to sell his sister?"
Daddy: "...she didn't eat her green beans..."

Good News

Liddy Dole Ch347z0rz!!

Earl Allen Haywood (former consultant to a fund-raising committee for NC Sen. Liddy's '02 campaign) pleaded guilty today to mail fraud in an embezzlement scheme involving more than $174k of political contributions. Haywood also raised $ for an entity known as North Carolina's Salute to George W. Bush that spread its funds between Dole, the NC Republican Party and Rep. Robin Hayes, R-N.C. HEY! Ole Robin just answered me back about the Akha-Thailand thing. Oh well, I reckon if he hadn't stolen the money Erskine Bowles would have taken a bigger whoopin.' I wonder how he'll fair this time if Edwards isn't going to run for the Senate again?..

Carlie's Law

Please email your Senator , your Congressional Representative and your Governor to let them know that you want these predators kept in jail.

Here's what I sent to John Edwards, Liddy Dole, Robin Hayes, and Mike Easley.

Once again, a grieving parent makes a plea to the public for help. The suspect in the abduction and murder of Carlie Brucia is a career criminal. Joseph P. Smith had served only 13 months of a possible 43 years for crimes he had committed. When he was arrested and charged in Carlie's murder, he was out of jail on parole.

This time, an entire nation saw the every parent's harrowing nightmare. Images of Carlie's last moments are forever present in our mind's eye. She has become everyone's child. The memory of her being led away and never seen again was a wake-up call to parents and law officials across the country.

Joe Brucia has been talking to lawmakers about proposed legislation to bring sweeping changes in our probation and parole procedures. His goal? Simple: Keep career criminals out of our children's lives.

From the vantage point of a taxpayer/voter/parent I see our “legal system” more inclined to keep non-violent offenders in prison for longer periods while violent animals like Joseph P Smith get to walk free and threaten our children.

Just as we will never forget Adam, Polly, Megan, and Amber; Carlie's legacy will live on. Please support Mr Brucia’s efforts in reference to CARLIE’s LAW.

Ok, so I got my own ax ground as well. But then these effer's work for me.
