You Don't Know What You Got...

It's Wednesday, and it's 24 degrees outside. 24 degrees between the people we are and the people we want to be. Let's cut right to it, there's some things I need to discuss here.



On the eve of the shooting death of Sir Winston O' Boogie, It compels me to blog about a death that still resonates in the heart of the world as we know it 25 years later. Talk about impact. I think Time magazine sums it up with the cover. I could go on and on about what Lennon means to me, but that would be selfish. Lennon meant something to every one. Some good and some bad. I think the saddest thing may be that he was poised for what some called a "comeback." It's a shame sometimes that John Lennon's music to some took a back seat to his politics. Either way it's a tragic passing of an iconic being. Remember for all your rock and roll suicides, and burn outs John Lennon's life was cut short. Never forget he was murdered.

Some Quotes for good measure:
The reason why kids are crazy is because nobody can face the responsibility of bringing them up.

Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted

Possession isn't nine tenths of the law. It's nine tenths of the problem.

If being an egomaniac means I believe in what I do and in my art or my music. then in that respect you can call me that. . . I believe in what I do, and I'll say it.

Everything is clearer when you're in love.

Moving right along, (yeah kids we're touching all bases tonight) picked up the new Prince of Persia game. Hotness. Is that a word? Cause it is now. I'll be damned though if it isn't a lot harder than the previous games. And, Jigga says it's longer too. Always a winning combination when a sequel is more difficult and takes more hours to beat.

Ok and the holiday season is upon us and it's seems Brian Wilson is making the tv show circuit. Let me tell you about this guy -- He is a genius. Nervous breakdown and all (you got to have creds to be a genius you know). Here's a guy who wouldn't even leave the house, and then he releases Smile! the album to top pet sounds and now he has a christmas album that judging by the performances sounds pretty damn tight. Anyway, for a brief overlook on him, IMDB has a cool biography, although it's not so current.

Toying. That's what I've been doing with this site. I'm thinking of changing this blog for the new year. See folks, I found I like to read. I also found this blog sometimes lacks direction. So I've posed this challenge, why not read a shitload of books in the new year and blog about them here? Sounds like a case of academia or literati creeping in but who gives a shit? Leave me some feedback and tell me what you think. I'm even debating making a challenge and seeing if I could read 40 books next year.
I thought it was funny when Otto sent out his wedding invitations on rolling paper. Marge was all like "ohh and look at this fancy paper." Speaking of which top ten names for pot in 2005 :

Weed
Trees
Squeef
Gunpowder
Good Will Blunting
Al Green
Herb
Kind Buds
The New Coke
Aunt Mary

Yes some straight from Jiggas mouth to your ears.

Oh Right, I've update my pics in my gallery, check it out and don't forget to leave feedback.
Ok Ok I know it's not officially winter yet, but all this cold weather, I can't help but quote me some Robert Frost. I leave these parting words. Think about them. Cherish them and pass them along as a gift to others. Or not, leave them where they stand for some other to enjoy.

DUST OF SNOW
The way a crow

Shook down on me

The dust of snow

From a hemlock tree

Has given my heart

A change of mood

And saved some part

Of a day I had rued.

Robert Frost.
