Weekend Adventures
Out visiting. Truth be told I’d been dreading this visit more than others. Hanging out with country friends not drinking seemed to me like I was now a vegetarian having to ask for a Falafel at a SteakHouse dinner. Fuck that, I’m not going. Either I’ll crack or I’ll be miserable. I quickly realised that it isn’t like that. It’s one of a small number of people...
Hahaha. Classic. This app would make a killing. Possibly save a few relationships & reputations too.

A few Radio Songs that bug me
I thought I’d be creative rather than elaborate on my unfathomable sadness & disillusion today. Well sort of
Smash Mouth – Allstar
Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas
I need to get myself away from this place
I said yep what a concept I could use a little fuel myself
And we could all use a little change
Now he’d probably get stabbed for saying that, if not for...
Sunday
I’ve been stuck on completing lyrics to a song for about two weeks now.
So far it’s called Devil Train Blues & besides the Chorus I have long streams of writing I need to refine & edit down into three verses.
The mental picture I had to arc the story from is kind of cool.
I went out one night & on the train to the right of me where a group of people on their way to a...
I’ve read a couple of books on Religious Cults & practices. There were some hilarious stories I’m sure were invented or made up. Though a few well known ones I’ve seen evidence of, I’d assume that too.
Neither of my two favourites I could find on Google. Well I can find similar but there is just so much to sift through to find these ones. So I’ll tell it best I...
This is a pretty cool little place you have here
I’d like to thank one or two of you for sharing things that makes me feel alright for me to say what I want to say
A few of you for some rad art, writing & lyrics
And just quietly, to one person: Much rather hear about your pet rabbit, but…If you know you look good, & an item of clothing is enough to do it, then it’ll...
Storytime
This one time, Grade 7 I think it was: Myself & two friends developed these mad slingshots. We found these rubber bands at the newsagent that were really thick & strong. With the metal spring we attached to these things they could shoot really far & still put a nice hole in a tree from as far as we could see. We’d made significant progress on the Bart Simpson/Denis the Menace...
The Three Murderers - South Park

Stopped watching South Park for ages & this episode reminded me why I liked them. Nyuk Nyuk Nyuk
On my ipod this week
Morrissey - You’re gonna need someone on your side
Only Morrissey could make a chorus saying how that someone you need is him. Then follow it up with “Well you don’t need to look so pleased”. It’s taken me awhile to fully appreciate his solo work just because of how great the combination of Morrissey & Marr was, but his band are killer on this song.

SPIN
No step forward
Without one step back
Nothing put forward
Without a counter attack
The future’s uncertain
The end is unclear
The direction is onward
Taking time is here
Spin it for me please
The truth is not pretty
Win them over for me
So I can sleep soundly
Some words are spoken
Some glances exchanged
Then after some silence
Everything changed
Then everything changed

Help me on my deadly quest.

Im getting a sword, and you can have a quote engraved on it.
WHAT QUOTE DO I PUT ON IT! There so many options, i need your help tumbler folk.
I tried to find similar quotes a while ago. It’s hard. For swords, most quotes you find are all along the lines of: “The pen is mightier than the sword…” Which is true in a broader sense, but no fun when you are...
Some of my past Band & gig posters
The two of us in the middle are the only remaining members of this lineup btw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBXDxJQenDs
Damn this was a fun gig. After all the management: bring gear in, don’t bring gear in yet, there’s too many people….just wait… politics were sorted, we had a great time. Generals & Majors have recently disbanded (the three members are still...
Augghh. I have to get back to real life for a while. Just when I was having fun.
I have much love & compassion for the real of my extended Twitter & other internet family.
Those that keep it real, even when keeping it real goes wrong………Those that have to tone themselves down & have no outlet to say what they REALLY...
I cannot be awake, for nothing looks to me as it did before, or else I am awake...

Wow your page is really cool. Just one of the kinds of pages I was hoping to find when I finally got around to setting up a Tumblr account

A few madly creative people who don't use drugs or...
I’d just like to start by making it absolutely clear that this is largely for those that might need some inspiration or reassurance. Or just a laugh or an interesting read. The important thing to note is: I haven’t gone righteous on anyone else & I’ll continue not to.
Now…
Here’s the list I found on a Google search for entertainers that don’t drink or do...
Accents.
ilickbrains:
Bro on the street today had a british accent and i instantly got tingles down below.
I don’t know what it is about men with accents, but i seem to get the urge to your clothing off with my teeth the second you open your mouth. Even if your not that attractive…if you have some form of an accent…i’d probably hop on that.
QUESTION…Do men with accents find women without accents...
thedisappointed asked: Hey man, I'm gonna go all AA on ya, if you need any help or advice re: giving away the bottle, I'm sober 8 months now and I'm not having any difficulty with it, so I might be useful to you. And also, do it man, it's totally the best thing ever.
HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!!
Mr. T - Treat Your Mother Right
A little secret between me & those who view this...
This is about to get real. So if you are one of those people that are all: “What is this, Facebook or Facesook?” What is this, Twitter or Bitter?….”, “You’re showing more than I want to see..
..Enough with yo chitchat, just show me where yo dick is at…” That’s ok. No need to abandon me. Just skip this post. I won’t be offended. I’ll be back to fun &...

A few stories that have changed some classic songs...
Queen - ‘Don’t Stop Me Now’
According to Russell Brand’s book (y Wook 2, the silly wanker), this song is about when Freddie Mercury’s Tour Manager filled a Hotel Room in Rio De Janeiro with 80 (80!!) rent boys to do with as he pleased while coked up to the gills.
I haven’t been able to find other reliable sources for this story, though it is often told....
