good morning....

it is raining a slow piss outside right now. i've been sitting on the front porch looking out into the gray afternoon wondering what it's all about.

what is IT, you ask?

i have no fucking clue.

i've got some todd snider on, now. i really respect his writing and talent. he puts on one of the best shows around. i think he's coming to dallas pretty soon. check it out at his site at www.toddsnider.net. you won't be disappointed.

don't you hate it when somebody tells you, "Oh, you've got to see this guy. he's fucking amazing. you'll absolutely love him."

and then you go to his show and he sucks gigantic cock.

it almost never fails.


except this time. you'll love todd snider. believe that.


okay, enough toddsnider cocksucking for one day.


let's move on to something else.........

spent the afternoon with roger ray yesterday. we always seem to talk about some really cool shit. i usually respect his opinion even when he's wrong. which is almost always.

now, i am going to go off on a rant. get ready.

there seems to be this mass disrespect in the underground music world for athletes and sport in general, and i would like to address this issue with all of those out there who read this that may be in a band or involved in the music business somehow that make fun of jocks and professional sports on a regular basis. actually this is for anyone who bitches about college head football coaches making more money than anyone else at their university, or that A-Rod is making 25 million a year, or that the Super Bowl is the most watched event every year, or that your boyfriend or husband watches to much sport, or that professional athletes get preferential treatment in society........you know who you are.

this is something that you need to know...

Athletes will always be respected members of society. always and forever and ever amen.
get used to this fact.

they are gladiators and warriors and vikings and cowboys and indians in battle and you are fucking playing a guitar and whining and complaining about fucking royalties and shit. i could go on and on about this, but i'll try to cut it short.

any rock and roll star worth his salt wishes he was joe montana or barry bonds or dirk nowitski or tiger woods. they are graceful specimens of manhood that excel in battle and stephen tyler is a she-male who dresses like he's fucking in a "i dream of jeannie" rerun and shit and janet jackson is a prostitute and justin timberlake is a bad chip n dale's dancer.

i absolutely cannot wait to see "Miracle". holy shit. i will be first in line on friday.

thirty minutes later.....

alright then. that's about enough for today. i don't wanna run out of shit to say.

hey bury me along the big sandy
down in those blue gray mountains
rest my soul in those hills of coal
until this ol' earth doesn't tremble........

peace,

scott
