A good place..

And I finally *bought* some4thing froom Wolfgang's vault





And lemme tell you, it was a doozy..
The Doobie Brothers, in 1973..These guys were HOT, and were the very first influence I ever had, from REAL musicians

Jimi hendrix bootleg folder icons

Anyone need these for their collection?

If so I'll make them available....

We survived our hurricane

Yeah.. we get them here on VAncouver Island.. 187 KmH was the highest speed clocked..
I miss them though.. a good stiff wind.. when I was younger I used to love to stand on the beachfront and watch the huge waves.
Just saying.

Frank Zappa's Favorite movies..

Which were, of course, 'B' movies.. where you an see the runners that the guy under the sheet of the monster's wearing..
Latest installment .. 'Mega Piranha' .. I swear.. it must have cost them way over a hunnert bux to make that movie..
So they resorted to money saving trix. instead of, you know, character development, in the beginning of the movie, they decided to dispense with it altogether.. by putting up big white screens in front of every actor upon their first appearance that said things like "Joe Blow - professional piranha hunter  - likes dark haired wimmen and ice cream" or
"Joe Smith trade secretary, likes booze'.. and 5 minutes later they kill him off ;-)..
Wow...... aint entertainment grand !

==========
A late addition..
I SIMPLY have GOT to add this priceless piece of dialog, early in the movie:

First female researcher: "OMG.. they must be doubling in size every day!"
Other researcher: "No no no.. they're growing exponentially..."

+++++++++++++++++++======================+++++++++++++++
OK an update...
A new addition to the"B" movie 'best of show'.. is

MEGA PYTHON VS GATOROID..

it is unbelievably cheesy.. but the part where Micky Dolenz is eaten by a very LARGE snake.. and all the highball swilling guests of a 'posh' everglades charity event defend themselves from an attack of Mega whatevers by loaded guns they just "happened" to be carrying, has *got* to be the cat's ass..

And oh.. didja get (any onya) into the movie? Get attached to one of the prime characters?. don't hole your breath.. even when the movie is still in the character development stage, they get eaten.. saves on scriptwriter fees, maybe...

Just saying.. IMHO ...

Canada's politics finally hit the Big Time... RoboGate!

Yup.. you heard it called that here first.. we've got a *real* scandal now.. in the past governments here have been allowed to get away with everything.. I wonder if that will now change?

a sign of hope in this trashed world

I fear for Africa worse than other places in the world, really,, when you consider there's the very worst suffering there, and , despite being, in my opinion, the least deserved to suffer, of all the worlds nations..
So I smiled when I saw this... (sorry, no embed code)

However, in other news...

 There's way less hope for the slimeballs in te west..

Must be some nasty copyright infringement, or maybe porn? Nope...
TRY AGAIN..
Irregardless of whatever religion or faith you believe, you should be VERY worried this is going on.. this is the first solid proof of a video taken off SOLELY due to religious intolerance on the part of GOOGLE
In fact the "Violation" was ONLY a film about a young girl who died for 24 hours, and was shown heaven and hell,by Jesus... and came back to life.. She made this video, and has been giving it away FREE. No copyrightable media has been used in it in any way..
Botom line is, it's proof that DO NO EVIL is a fraud motto of google's..

Here's a site with a working link to the video..

Whale of a bite...

Everybody has a dying wish

I WANT THE REVERB UNIT THE SHADOWS HAVE.......

Hey i bet even Jeff (when he can pull himself away from his '32 roadsters) always wanted it too
Aint it enuff?



Don't believe I'm right?
Try listening to 'Apache' again.. so go buy a copy then.. Hank and the boys aren't millionaires (although they oughta be rather than "Beyonce")

Aint no pay in being good..
and Nibiru is coming in only a few more months.. so then it's all over folks..
.. the end of it all... again ! ...(for the umptieth time)
It's beyond a sad laugh.what a frikking waste of time, and talent, and human endeavour.. over and over again...
It's been worked out that it takes 5000 years for humanity, to recognize the truth, act on it, come to terms with it's inherent violence, grow past it's limitations , and understand the meaning of life, and the cosmos..

But WE ARE ALWAYS WIPED OUT EVERY 3600 YEARS and have to rebuild..
No wonder we're a pathetic unredeemable bunch of neandarthals


Oh.. it occured that maybe some of you ( all three readers of my blog ;-( )
Might not know what i was referring to ..
I HATE to ruin your day (and I mean this sincerely ) but you have to know..

My deepest sympathies to Cissy houston on her personal tragedy..

My prayers are with you..

With regard to Whitney's death, rumours are circulating about "prescription pill" poisoning.. From my understanding of the symptoms of her death, plus the fact that they were unable to revive her, I suspect, it was Methadone poisoning.
Why?
Because that's the big trend among physicians who "treat" entertainers for pain.. except it's got a very low safety margin, and if you overdose on it, your odds of coming out of it are slim to none..
We will see.. but remember, you heard it here first...
Maybe it's stop this insane trend to prescribe Methadone for every little ache..
