News Stories and Video's

 I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong in a news article. When I see a news article that uses "video" in

 the title of the article I expect a video in the article. I can't find them. I open up the article online and there

 is no video. Yet they mention a video in then the headline to the article. If you're going to mention a video

 one assumes the video is in the article. It's like saying "hay check out this picture" you open the site and

 there's no picture. What gives? The distrust of journalism starts some were there. They try to lead you to

 open the news story, so they get bigger counts. Or hits on their story(clicks). This leads to more entries for

 them as a journalist but leads to distrust of the viewer on the role of journalist. That might be complicated

 to state, but I believe many people know what I'm saying. They are lying to the public just so they get

 more clicks to their news story. The least you could do is have a link to the video which on occasion some

 do.

Chopper

 My chopper in early 2000's. This photo is 2000 at Laconia bike week. Thats the parking lot of the King Birch Motor Lodge in Alton Bay. I almost hit two moose on the back roads going back to the hotel. I locked up both brakes and was about to ditch the bike by leaping off it. I could have touched one of the moose's rearend as I passed. They moved out of the way at the last moment. I rode 1500 miles that week. Built in mid 1990's. In 2007 or 2008 sold it. Needed the money to get out of a seriously bad relationship.

1958 Panhead motor with Paughco frame and frontend. Aluminum rims (Akront) with stainless steel spokes Started piecing it together around 1993. Bottom photo is Dess with the bike before installing the motor at Bill the Cop's house

Dog Bones

 Dog Bones©




This song is punk all the way. It's about a person and their obsessions. A loner type becoming obsessive in thought and action. It too awhile to come to me. I wrote it, not know the meaning. usually, a song will evolve it time while writing. meaning sometimes the words are not the correct words but will evolve to the correct ones as you write. 

sniffing all the way

having a lovely day

I got my dog bones

bow wow

bow wow bow wow x2

that honey she got away

left a total haze

I got my dog bones

dog bones

dog a dog a dog bones x2


I'm taken off today

nobody knows the way

I got my dog bones

 bow wow

 bow wow bow wow x2


Looking through your eyes

a thousand dynamite

I got my love on

love on

love a love love on x2


babe what a surprise

she lost an alibi

I got my love on

love on

love a love love on x2


hanging on the lawn

yelping nasty tones

I got my dog bones

bow wow

bow wow bow wow x2


living like a king

they call me nasty things

I got my dog bones

dog bones

dog a dog dog bones x2



Licking my chops away

thinking night was day

I got my dog bones

bow wow

bow wow bow wow x2


Love to walk alone

nobody carrying a phone

I got my dog bones

dog bones

dog a dog a dog bones x2


I see ya walking by

 I had to televise

I got my love on

love on

love a love love on x2


wishing it was me 

I hear she got it free

I got my love on

love on

love a love love x2

Automotive Industry

 


I don't know if you noticed but the auto Industry has publishing articles with cars costing over $100000

 for good reason. Some of these articles are paid to the writer. The industry wants the general public to 

get use to cars costing over $100000. You do this by constantly making the figure normal or 

normalizing the  cost of a car costing $100000. They make a tremendous amount of money doing so. 

Most people cannot  afford $100000 car. If you can, then buying a Million-dollar home is not an issue.  

There was a recent  article of a women living paycheck to paycheck earning $350000 per year. She had 

two cars with 185000  owed on the cars. Houses and condos are not expensive if you feel $80000 for  

car is normal. Used cars  can be bought for $30000 and they are reliable and affordable for most of the 

population. Having a car is a necessity in many areas. Some areas of the country it is more important to 

have a car than a house for  employment. In the city this is not always true. $100000 car in my 

Neighborhood is foolish. You do not  need a car costing over $40000 to be reliable. It is not a status 

symbol, your home is. This is just an  opinion of mine and I now many people will say having a new 

expensive car is a must for image. It's a  losing investment. As soon as you buy the car it depreciates in 

value to eventually hitting zero. Your  home won't.

Elon Musk and Twitter

 Looks like Elon is kicking some ass at Twitter. 

Will he go public at $100 per share? Or $200. I'll put my money on $200

Kenye West or better yet YE

 Is Ye that smart? Did he just show corporate America how prejudice they are. When he was putting down the Black Lives Matter movement, he never lost a sponsor. When he did it to the Jewish community, they all dropped him. It wasn't such a problem when he was attacking the black community but became a "drop him now" movement when he made statements about the Jewish community. Is he that smart? Well, I say so. One might say he is brilliant.

PINK DIAMOND RED ©

There is more written about this song in this Blog. It generally is about coming of age and realizing you're not living the life you want to. Dropping out and becoming who you want to be. The meaning of the song is only in the title. The rest of the song is good ole rock and roll lyrics. Pink means a young man or women. Diamond is referring to getting married. And red is realizing you're not living the way you want to live. the pink shines through the diamond.... GET IT?!!

Pink Diamond Red x4

left your fur coat baby

laying on my bedroom floor

you got Ya own dresser drawer

labeled little Lovin more

cause its Pink Diamond Red

Pink Diamond Red x3

hay there sweety

if you like what you see

come and blast away with me

cause it's Pink Diamond Red

Pink Diamond Red x3

let's take a walk the street

let the people look we meet

find a little cubby hole

do a little loving more

cause its pink diamond Red

Pink Diamond red x3

we got a hundred thousand swords

some are hanging with the lord

better catch it while you can

got the blessing from the man

cause it's Pink Diamond Red

Pink Diamond Red x3

PICKALOWTOWN ©

PICKALOWTOWN

This song was inspired by my daughter. She had gotten a tattoo of her sisters and did not get one of her brother.  So, I started this song that night. I was hurt myself, for leaving him out of the tattoo. The song vision was vivid. It entailed a young boy about 9 years old following his older sister being 13 or 14 who was with two of her friends. The young boy was 15 feet behind her walking with tears in his eyes. The love he had for his sister was big. He didn't understand why now after so many years she was some what leaving him or not given the attention she once had . She turns every now and then to lean over and talk to him. Letting him know where she was going. These are in the lyrics. A country town with quite roads and steps made of stone. The school being more of a one room school house. In my vision the effect on the boy is hard to explain. He was devastated. he could not wipe the tears away fast enough. It was at night the song came as a jam session and I was twirling around while the song was coming to me. I needed to extract it from all around me. That was the feeling I got. The song was slow to come. During the extraction I was on my butt on the ground in my room. When I was picked upped and thrown AGAINST THE WALL. The trouble was no one in the room. My feet left the floor. I slid down the wall and just laughed and chuckled for a bit. I know who it was...

Hay, what about me x2

We're going on down to Pickalowtown

going to watch a picture show, would you like to come along

you're looking down and I'm looking up

won't you put your loving arms around me

you're fooling around and I'm getting down

won't you put your loving arms around me

hay, what about me x2

we're going on down to Pickalowtown

going to the Appletree would you like to come along

have you forgotten the smile

have you lost our love

won't you put your loving arms around me

hay, what about me x2

we're going on down to Pickalowtown

going to see a waterfall, would you like to come along

 throwing our love away, what about me x4

hay, what about me x2

we're going on down to Pickalowtown

going to the school yard, would you like to come along

do you no longer care will you no longer share

won't you put your loving arms around me

you're laughing loud and I'm crying now

won't you put your loving arms around me

hay, what about me x2

we're going on down to Pickalowtown

we're going for an ice cream, would you like to come along

I miss you more than ever before

won't you put your loving arms around me

please close your eyes and think of my smile

won't you put your loving arms around

WAITING FOR YOU ©


The song was written while looking at images on the internet. As I came across interesting images of Courtney that I found interesting. I sat there and stared at the image until a verse would come to mind. waiting for you to die came from the mid-nineties when Courtney was having difficulty with substance abuse. I told a coworker that I wanted to see her live before she died. Apparently, I held on to that though for 20 plus years. She was on a path to death at the time. Not true today. The images are in the video...

she's got platinum hair

that cross eyed stare

hazel jewels


those big red lips

there so delish

let me dine on you


we are waiting for you

yes, waiting for you waiting for you to 

die

die

die


I adore your stance

you're such a tramp

I'm crazy for you


washing close in the pool

you're the queen of x

with no regrets


we were waiting for you

yes, we are waiting for you

waiting for you to 

die

die

die

WAITING FOR YOU

WHAT"S YOU SAY ©

After a big fight with my daughter Nicole, I wrote this song in 20 minutes on a Sunday after fighting with her. She was texting me so fast and furious that I couldn't understand the message she was saying. I was doing the same after I reviewed what I wrote to her. Polished it up some the next weekend 

What's you say, what's you say x2




 

baby girl gone away

I thought she was here to stay 

she packed it up and left today

what's you say what's you say x2

Is it all gone__________

I wish I could get back to dawn

so far away___________

she left the keys on the lawn

what's you say now what's you say x2

my baby girl gone away

she's taken a a holiday

over there in LA

got some friends with high pay

what's you say what's you say x2

tell me I'm wrong_________

I'm waking up lushes' hair

sorry to stare_________

your short mini got me dear

what's you say what's you say x2

baby girl gone away

It happened just the other day

she dressed in a pink thong

my favorite color on its own

what's you say what's you say

 what's you say

Time to go back

 I sat and talked to a hurricane of thought. 

My brother said it’s time to go back to the one love. 

One love one saint.

A saint of tranquility 

My brother I don’t have the words of my thoughts 

Stay with me and your mind will clear

It is time to go back to the way I once was

It is lonely chilling comfortably slumped 

Why go back to the way I once was

To secure a future that rode above

I read you like a bible because that’s my sin

CANNIBAL CORPSE


Heavy hitters on the Death Metal scene are and have been Cannibal Corpse. 


A foot of snow dumped on New England during the day, just in time to completely disrupted the drive going to the show. It doubled my travel time to Worcester, MA USA. I was not going to cancel this trip because I have been trying to see this band for several years now. Four and a half hours before the show, I started traveling and  

made it a half hour before the show started. It was enjoyable time. My back was wasted from sitting in the driver’s seat for that long and I could barely walk getting out of the car. My back muscles were screaming to take a break along the drive, but I refused to stop knowing that it would increase the time to make it too the show. I pulled into the hotel that I reserved 2 months in advance to make sure I had a room. It is around the corner from the Palladium.



The Palladium is the place to do to for shows in the Worcester area and beyond if you enjoy metal music. With a rich history of bands stopping in to pound the place. When I see shows I tend to make a trip out of it with hotel room and usually time to roam around the city to check things out or just hang park side and people watch (chicks). Not just here but anywhere I go. It's my vacation. Walking up to the counter I received a typical look from the front desk. I'm not attacking women, but this is a women thing. It has happened to me more than once. I reached into my pocket and took out my ID and credit card to give to the women at the front desk. She just looked at it without reaching out to receive my ID and credit card. With a look that states "why are you handing me this?" With a bit of disgust on the expression of her face. And just stared at my hand I could understand if I came up to you on a city street with brown paper bag, opened it and said "hay...reach in and take one." But this is not the case. This time I was convinced it was the way I looked. Well, I did not look that bad or out of place but my blue jeans where ripped and I was bent over in pain from my back. Talk about making judgment on someone by their looks. I thought she was going to call security and remove me from the hotel. This might explain the 4-star rating and not a 5-star rating 
booking.com. I stood there with a blank expression and after a time I stated "HEELLLOOOO.... I would like to check in." She  

kept her eyes focused on my ID as if it were about to turn into a bug or monster or worse!! 

"OH" she stated and took my ID and put my credit card down and looked me up on the computer and found that, YES, I do have a reservation and was not some homeless guy looking to cause a seen for fun. And a free ride to a heated room for the night, jail, because the city ignores the homeless population like it doesn't exist and offer shelters. I made the reservation well in advance due to past experiences. I was put next to the elevator. Rooms next to elevators are reserved to lower class people who have no business checking in. I mean it was 2 months before the show!! Do not tell me all you had was rooms next the elevator. Well, it could be... Worcester needs more hotels, and you can most always tell a city that needs more hotels based on the price of the room. When the room price is double what you expected to pay, it means the city needs more hotel rooms. This partly how businesses gauge if it viable to build a new hotel in the area, by local room costs. I was pleasantly surprised that I could barely hear the noise of the elevator. Work was going on somewhere in the building I could hear the noise of a screw gun. I was surprised because it was 6pm on a Friday. I do not know about you, but I really do overtime on Fridays unless It is absolutely needed.  

Typically, I take off right at quitting time. Gone... 

I recently worked at a place that like to hang around for a bit and talk after your shift. I was way      out of  place and only lasted a year. I forced myself to make it to the year mark so it would not look too bad on my resume. Under a year tends to look bad to managers. Not me dude, at the end of the day it is my time. Most people in the trades do this. We show up early but at the end of the day where gone, no hang time. The show was explosive as expected. I really did not expect anything less. You might think these metal shows with certain bands are too hard core. They are not. Live shows tend to be completely different than an album or YouTube. Just a unique experience. I have seen Jazz to Death Metal shows without buying an album or download from music sights. Live shows today are the bread and butter of most bands. A big rip off going on streaming sites with bands making little to no cash. Watch this change in the future as bands start to explore other avenues to clear some rent money. Kanye West seems to be carrying the torch on this front. With this Stem thing which I have not figured out yet. I am sure there are others, but he is being the most popular of the bunch and he sells. Sells what? Just sells. It is worth plugging his name. People or groups of his stacker make more than everyone else on these sites. The more popular a star is the more they make. And the little person makes nothing at all. So, he does not need to do this. Its in his financial interest not to do it. He is trying to stop a greed machine from continuing. whether you like his music or do not, is not the point of the conversation.

 The Goth Girls were there in all their glory!!
