Now Isn’t that Shirt Cool? Do republican’s (like Dick Chaney) start wars?
Wearing that one around here in Conservative Oklahoma would go over like a Led Zeppelin huh? I’d sign up and wear that around… No problem… But this poor blogger aint’ got $17.50 to go do that… I’m one of the poor democrats. You can have this groovy shirt.
And I heard that it’s difficult to get an Obama sign for the front yard. Last election they couldn’t give them away… Nobody wanted them… Kerry Lost… I hope this is a sign for better things…. He won’t win in Oklahoma but he’s got my vote anyways… How about YOURS
**Posted in 2008. The shirt was originally ‘START WARS”
Yell out the car window “Hey… you wanna start some shit”?!?!
Yes folks…. Its reality… If you look for trouble (shit) -your gonna find it… Just grab a big bucket… Pour it in and grab a stir stick… I’ll bring the fan and we can let the fun begin.

I got a notice from Google about my Adsense account. You can see the ad’s there on the right..(maybe) I have owned this site for several years.. I don’t blog on it much anymore. My brother uses it a lot – he is a film buff and enjoys reviewing movies .
So anyway Google sends me an email…
One or more of your sites has been in violation of AdSense policies.
Huh? What the heck are they talking about? I go over and look! Here it is! Yes.. My old blog… Violating Google Rules… What is it?
Well….The Email says:
AD MISLABELING: Publishers may not implement Google ads in a manner that disguises the ads in any way.
How am I doin that? OH…. It said ‘KEWL’ above one ad. And ‘Stuff” above another.. It can’t say that. It has to say – Advertisements’ Or ‘sponsored links’ 😉
OK… I’m glad we got that cleared up. I have had this site up since like 2008. Hmmm 8 years. Sorry I didn’t wanna break any rules…Good they got around to telling me.
I took a quick look at my balance while I was fixing the problems.. A grand total of $76.66
The Little Drummer Boy is one of my favorite Christmas songs. it was originally know as “Carol of the Drum” and was written by Katherine Kennicott Davis in 1941.
This is version was recorded in my home studio using Reaper software. It’s really just a practice exercise to try to do a song from start to finish in just a couple days.
In my typical method. I used cheap guitars and a 2006 MacBook to do the record. I used either stock or free plugins for effects.
Most of the settings are presets except some minor EQ tweaks.
Then I uploaded the file to Landr for mastering – also free.
Yes folks. A whole Christmas song for your listening pleasure and free download.
My good friend Neal Hutto passed away around this time of year back in 2010, My thoughts often go back to memories that we shared hanging out… Talking about music and the state of the universe and all that…
He used to MC the open mic nights at the Eclipse club back in the 90’s. He made the entertainment! He would introduce me and I’d stumble drunk up on the stage and sing about abusive youth church camp leaders and such… It was fun!
Yeah… Neal was kool… I was a thug.. There were other artists and punks heckling other losers. What can I say? It was some of the best times of my crazy youth… Well I was pushing 30… But ya know
Dang I miss that guy.
I didn’t make it to his funeral but I found a copy the full eulogy of Neal on Facebook. His friend Will knew him much better than I did and said all the right things. He mentions Neal’s Riverside Drive Tape that he recorded back in 1990. He talks about some of it being digitized but I have never found it on the net..
Neal was sleeping at my pad one summer and we were checking it out and I told him “lemme get a copy of that” So I simply dubbed one over….And I still have it…
I hadn’t heard that stuff in a long time… Wow! I don’t know the names of the songs but it’s quite a good little musical journey that record. Some really trippy ambient music there…
Simple and effective lyrics
“love is here to stay..I ain’t bullshitting…. Love is here to stay”
