I'm over it.

Well, I am over it. I didn't quit my job and I really don't think anything bad will happen to my long term fiscal future. 'Cuz I don't have one. I didn't quit my job because it is the only place I can sit around all day and surf the webs and get paid (meagerly) for it. I didn't move out of the country because, well, it is my country and it would take a lot to ruin it. There is still football, bratwursts and rock n roll, so I won't complain just yet.
So there-I am not giving up hope just yet-everyone fears uncertain change but my life has almost always been about change.
Now it is time for me to change my answering machine message from "if this is a political phone call-I ain't answering. If it is a real phone call leave a message"

Unbelievable

ARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!! I'll be over it by tomorrow...or Saturday...or 2012.

At least I won't have to worry about putting gas in my car or the mortgage anymore.
I will quit my job tomorrow too.

Influential songs

I thought I would put some of the rock songs I have been influenced by. Most of the stuff that has influenced my playing & writing have been from people that I am related to or so far off the radar screen they might not have ever existed in the real world. Maybe I just dreamed them...Hmmmm. Most aren't even on u-toob.

Yep, the first rock I heard was the Freakin' Who. I Saw "TOMMY" at the drive ins with the "rents too.------Next is the first Queen song I ever heard-well maybe. Gotta love fat bottom girls. I know I do.-----
Man I could not get enough of this song when it came out-especially the live version. My Dad bought me the most killer stero that a 13 year old could have and I blasted it every day when I came home to an empty house. I present to you JOURNEY.
-----
If I could play like this guy, I would have it made. I still love me some "Emotions in Motion" ------
This song better be played at my funeral & Todd better be there, -----
This song led me to believe that you could do more with guitars than country or hard rock. -----
This song will also be played at my funeral. I have always loved this song. It is so fitting that I live in Ohio now. It is not the same without Bill Berry. Man love that song.-------
This song is very special to me. If'n you know the band you understand. It brings back good memories. It has about 7 levels of longing and ache in it. I'd have to splain it to you but you might not understand.
This is my alltime favorite GBV jam. Not something to be buried with but really close. My oldest girl would probably throw a copy of GLAD GIRLS in the furnace with me 'cuz it's the only one she knows, But this one is one of my favorite GBV songs. ------
I do not agree with the wording of this song-I do agree with the sentiments and the music is perfect. I love this song. I am really into this right now
SOooo....that is enough of the celebration of Sonnyfunk at the moment. I will do a regional recap of music if I feel like it soon.
Hope you had a productive day-I didn't

College football, more musical influenza, random poo

I gots the hum drums. I have had them for a while. I will not take medication for them. I am not like the enlightened one Tom Cruise, but I am trying to keep my brain from feeling any of the ill effects of chemicals. I have already done enough to damage it. Football, rockclimbing, college years, breakdancing....you know, too much head truama. So when I am down I look to the past and usually it comes up in the music I haven't listened to in a while. Well, I flat out dig this. Check this out by the Breeders. I met Kim once, shook the drummers hand and worked with one of the bass players recently.
I like it and if you don't, go to youtube and fire what you like back at me...Listen to this song 3 x in a row and you will be humming it all day the next day.

SO The Vols lost again, I have hope for the next year and It does not matter until my 12 year old gets to go to the Promised Land of Knoxville & I get season tickets, that they win and win like it is their job. Cuz it is their job, to keep that scholorship. Unfortunately, Bama is looking good to take the title game and make USC/OK pay for even thinking about playing the S.E.C. Man it stinks to be a redneck in a buckeye world.
