You cant return Black Beauty's

I have been lagging on the blog. I run out of stuff to say. Tonight I have a story that I thought was funny. No reason for it except it made me laugh when I found it in a bunch of old emails. Enjoy!

"Throw out my 42 years on this planet I have never done any drugs except pot. No coke, no pills, nothing. Once I bought some "black beauty's" (remember those?) from a kid while I was in high school but was to scared to take them. When we came back to school on the following Monday I asked the kid that sold them to me if I could get my five bucks back if I gave them back since I didn't take them. It was then I learned that there was a no return policy when it came to drugs."

Pints, Tea, Mick Jones and Bruce Springsteen


Just got back from London. Had a blast for the 5 days. Pints and Tea all day and I met Mick Jones of The Clash!!!! If I would have been there another day I would have started saying, "What up mate?" and "cheers". The highlight of the trip was Hyde Park on Sunday. The Gaslight Anthem who are all from New Jersey had the privilege of opening for Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band at Hyde Park and Glastonbury (the day before). As Gaslight Anthem took the stage Bruce made his way backstage and asked Brain Fallon of The Gaslight Anthem if he could come out and play the G.L.A. song "The 59 Sound". You could imagine the look on Brian's face! So before you knew it, "The Boss" walks out on stage with G.L.A and proceeds to rip through a killer version of song. The crowd lost it and so did I!!!

Here it is for you to check out. Enjoy.

True Stories and Bad Ideas

(Just cut and paste this link and put it in your browser)

A while ago I was hanging out with a band at Sideonedummy and we were shooting the shit, drinking some beers and telling stories. As the night ended the singer of the band said to me, “I wish you could come on the road with us, just to tell us more of your stories.” The next day I started thinking about what my friend said and I decided to take a few minutes and tape one of my stories. It sounded OK so the next day I taped another and did the same for about 2 weeks. The link you have here is 4 stories about “growing up” in Nor Cal.. Take a listen and if you like it pass it on to someone else you think that might dig it and ask them to do the same. For those of you with kids, do not listen with them! I have a potty mouth. Sorry!!



Enjoy!

Kids toys

So this morning at 7a.m. my 5 year old son starts blowing on this"new" whistle he has at full volume. At first I was cool about it. "Hey buddy, lets not blow on the whistle right now. It is a little to early for that." Of course he doesn't stop and then proceeds to blow it louder and louder and then ends up trying to play a song on it. At first I was getting upset with him and then I realized I shouldn't be pissed at him I should be pissed at the moron that gave him this "nightmare noise maker thing". So I asked him with a smile, "Hey boss who gave you the whistle?" It took him all of about 2 seconds for him to tell me the name of the person who was making my head feel like someone had split it open with an axe. At that moment I went on-line and purchased three air horns. The kind of air horns you use to scare away bears when you camp. These things are frigging loud! The come with a set of "Headphones" you have to wear when using them. Guess who's kid is getting these as a gift from me for the holidays.

Enjoy your day and try to laugh really hard at least once today!
