That's It...


I'm starting a band.

There have to be some other people over 30 who want to slant towards the dream as death edges ever closer.

Thanks for your support, Ab. :)

I admit, I HAD been drinking at the time of that post and its accompanying beautimous art, but starting a band IS an intermittent thought that I have. I mean, we wouldn't even have to play gigs, just get together and jam. It wouldn't even have to be a band so much as a gathering of people who want to play and sing.

I'm still thinking about it.

So what type of music are you aiming for? rock? Jazz? also, what instrument do you play? Or do you sing?

Probly just a mixed bag of stuff, rock, metal, country, blues, what have you. I sing. I can play the flute, but its coolness applications are limited unless you're into jazz, which I'm not. And you can only play so much Jethro Tull (although some of their stuff is lovely).

Hello Ari. Thanks for the visit at my place and the nice comments.
....I like your postings - (I scrolled down and read several.)

I still haven't mastered that paint Works thing, I can draw pretty good, but it's hard trying to move a mouse like a pen or a pencil for me. Maybe with practice ....

I'll definitely return to visit you again.

It WOULD be a lot of fun if I could just get it rollin, Ab.

Hiya Hale and thanks for kind words and the return visit. I'm glad you got to see some of my Paint loveliness posted right up there on the screen.

You would have to post some of the stuff that you play.
Fusion is where it's at today, so I'd say there are many applications for the flute. Sounds like fun.

hey, I play the plastic bucket. Really good at head banging too.

Just wanted to put myself out there. ;)

I'm pretty rusty on the flute, Julie. I think the only fusion I'd be doing is me to nearby objects when I sucked a lot.

Head bangin' makes any band cooler, and that's a fact, Random.

Very Sad News

Hi everyone, Because friends share in good things and bad and this is important to me, I thought you all might like to know. My mom, who had been battling many health problems, especially during the past few years, passed away Friday night. She was not a perfect person, but her love for me was. I figure if you want to know more, you'll ask. But if I don't seem quite myself for awhile, that's why. Thanks.

The Sock Monkey Project

Image
Recently, due to Arctic Blast 2007 (i.e. a quarter-inch of sleet upon these Dallas roadways), a much-anticipated night of drinking, fooling around and Sopranos was nixed. Did I sulk? Well, hell yes, I did. And then I did some more. But after that, pouting began to bore me and I hit upon a mission: I was gonna make a goddamn sock monkey. Why the flip did this occur to me? Well, I'd talked it up for many years, seeing as how my grandmother gave me one when I was six or seven and it was subsequently so cherished and frequently hugged that the tail developed a hole at the end. As it turns out, my friends listen to me on occasion, so I was gifted with this kit at Christmastime this year. Though my original hosiery simian was far more tricked out than this one, with a red gingham dress and hat that had lace trim, this nostalgia-fueled, red felt vested ape would do nicely on a blustery, pissy winter's night . Besides, the original mon-chi-chi was lost. Generally speaking, I'm n

Two Years

Two years I've been writing this. Two years. Most of you and I have known each other for most of that span. Why is it so hard to believe, the constant flow of time? -------------------------------- Reality is a question of perspective; the further you get from the past, the more concrete and plausible it seems -- but as you approach the present, it inevitably seems incredible. -- Salman Rushdie
