Sweet tobacco helps you live long Keeps you alive when you do me wrong Sweet tobacco keeps me sane When the nicotine goes to my brain Sweet tobacco I love you How I wish you loved me too I spend my money on them cigarettes Better than woman when she’s good as she gets When my heart breaks and ...

My co-worker couldn’t make it in to work today. She’s having car trouble. It’s also raining; actually, it’s pouring! Luckily, I live close to work and have the luxury of being able to walk to work. It doesn’t matter to me if it’s raining. I have an umbrella. I’ve noticed that lots of people have car trouble when it’s raining. It’s an interesting phenomenon. I’ve known lots of people who can’t seem to make it to work because it’s raining. The car won’t start for some reason. Maybe there’s a leak in the hood and the engine got wet. Appointments are missed and dates get stood up. It’s amazing. How much does a car cost? I guess it’s better to stay home when it’s raining than it is to have to drive in it. Most cities have more than adequate public transportation; some transportation systems can be more trouble than they’re worth. The latter best describes the transportation in the city where I live. That’s why I like to work and play locally. Unless one lives in a city like New York where m...

"I'll keep this short and to the point: The reason that club owners continue to fuck over musicians and bands with money is that there are some constituents in our business that feel that it is OK to play for nothing, or close to it, just because they don't need the money, or for exposure, or to undercut the competition, etc. What they do NOT realize is that they not only hurt their colleagues, but also themselves, in the long run. CARDINAL RULE: IF YOU ARE PROVIDING A SERVICE FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE PROFITING FROM THAT SERVICE, THEN YOU DESERVE TO BE PAID, ADEQUATELY I MIGHT ADD, FOR THAT SERVICE. AS A MUSICIAN, YOU ARE ANOTHER VENDOR FOR THAT BAR, RESTAURANT OR CLUB, AND THOSE VENDORS DO NOT WORK FOR FREE, NOR DISCOUNT THEIR PRODUCTS TO SUCH A MENIAL LEVEL FOR "EXPOSURE", AND THEY AREN'T IN THIS FOR FUN. MUSIC IS FUN FOLKS, BUT IT IS ALSO A BUSINESS, AND NEEDS TO BE TREATED AS SUCH! Let's get real: Each musician on a gig deserves at least $100 at the end of ...

Contents of a Driver's License: Name, Date of birth, address, eyeglasses required, gender, height, eye color, organ donor, what class of driver, date of issue and expiration, a photo. All of this is no one's business but your own. "I only want to buy tobacco or alcohol or see my favorite band. Sure! Here's my ID. Take your time scrutinizing it and/or scanning it " xoxo hugs and loves . Contents of a Vaccination Record Card: Name, date of birth, date of vaccination. "If you ask to see my card, I will sue you!" When I am in an establishment where people are unmasked, I want to be assured that my fellow patrons have had their vaccine. Show your card and enjoy yourself. It is as much an invasion of your privacy as showing your ID before entering a club. People don't seem to have a problem with that, so why the problem with showing your vax card? Your ID contains more personal information than your vax card does. I will proudly show mine. Showing your va...

After reading Kafka's Metamorphosis, I wasn't sure if I was a bug who wanted to be a man or a man who wanted to be a bug. So I figured that the best thing to do was to not identify as a bug or a man or to identify as all or none of the above,. The problem was, which bug would I want to be? Did I want to be one kind of bug? Two kinds of bugs? All kinds of bugs or not a bug at all. OR...did I want to be neither a bug or a man? I solved the problem by looking in the mirror. It was then that I determined that I was not a bug, nor did I want to be a bug. I happily accept that I am a man and not a bug. I hope that Congress will not waste taxpayer money debating whether or not they should pass laws to ensure me the right to try to figure this out without discrimination. They have important work to do, and they had better get to it. It is my business if I want to think of myself as a bug, as a man or none or all of the above. Until I can figure it out, maybe I'll just come out and ...
