More Pearls
Is anybody reading these?
Today I bought a new CD for the first time in...well no, there was the ELO CD about a month ago...okay, but aside from that one this would have been the first CD in almost a year. And what did I choose to serve with the honor of this privledge? Of all the possibilities among the vast, vast racks of Media Play, which single musical compilation did I select? Van Morrison "The complete bang sessions." This was in light of the fact that "Van Morrison Greatest Hits Vol. 1" was not in stock...as usual...and I grew tired of waiting. My review? Excellent disc. No greatest hits, certainly, and only covering the years 67-68 when Morrison was fresh off the boat from Ireland and working for the "Bang" music label, but what the CD lacks in "complete career sampling" it makes up for in "concentrated early Morrison R&B, Blues, and Rock combined."
In other personal media news, I finished reading "Last Exit to Brooklyn" today...a decent book, but not even close to as fuckin "amazing" as people like to pretend it is. Just a lot of graphic sex (straight and homosexual) and violence. Little in the way of creative plot.
Still laughing over the fact that Carter said we've lost all credibility. Oh, Jimmy, you'd almost be adorable if you weren't just a complete waste of existence.
If I ever throw a bid back into the musical business, I think I will select the harmonica. Seriously. There are few instruments that are cooler than the harmonica in the right song, and I already play one of them. Alright, maybe I'll take the guitar, but the harmonica can't be too hard to learn, so maybe I'll do both at once. Lessons on the guitar and self-teaching on the harmonica. Or maybe I'm just fulla shit. Never can tell.
RoyMunsun45 informed me yesterday that 98% of Americans either use or have tried pot. Maybe not that much, but it'd have to be pretty damn close. And yet its still illegal. This from me, a non-user. Okay, I'll spill about this for a minute. What really gets me about this shit is not whether its legal or not cause frankly I could give a shit. What bugs me is that its kept illegal because people say "its a gateway drug." Well, if the survey is even close to accurate, then that should mean almost every American in the country should have been steered in the direction of harder shit because they've stood at the gates themselves. Come on. That's what's wrong with this fuckin country. Nobody is ever held accountable for anything. If some junky throws his life away on drugs, we say "it started with pot." Come on. It didn't start with pot. It started with said junky being a degenerate fuck who can't say when's enough and cares more about having a good time then anything else. Fuck a person like that. But not in this country. Oh no. Somebody's feeling are lible to get hurt if you try to hold anybody accountable. Always blame the other guy, right? Fuck that. Okay, well that's enough on this, cause like I said, it doesn't affect me one way or the other anyway.
Does it embarass any republicans that the party has set up a "war room" to refute what comes out of the democratic convention. Okay, everybody knows the left has got a big mouth and doesn't always dwell in the realm of fact, but its their fucking convention. Setting up a war room is exactly the type of radical behavior they themselves like to resort to. Its this type of shit that makes me refuse to associate with either party. You get two parties, meaning two big-money war machines that could care less about anything of real substance and would rather spend their time subverting everything the other one says. Guess what - your life aint gonna be any different whether its Bush or Kerry, If more people realized this maybe all the whining and crying in this country could stop for five minutes and give us all a little time to breath. Then again, it does make for interesting news. Just hope that Cheney doesn't have his fiftieth heart attack and (god, oh god, please god, please, please, please) don't let Edwards' nails get screwed up at his next manicure. Yes, by the way, it is true...Edwards has his nails done. Oh, and he's always with the botox (or however you spell that).
Alright, I'm gonna wrap this up so I can go grab a juicy burger and some fries and eat it in front of a starving homeless person. So until next time, so long, and in the words of Michael Moore - "I'm a fuckin dipshit."
