If all wishes were gratified, many dreams would be destroyed.

with hope for 2022?

These Nuns are so, so, so different 
from the ones that would wack me with a pointer
when I was a kid!
Weed growing and selling Nuns..
Seriously, really,
Nuns that grow excellent weed.
This replaces the hope I have recently
lost in humanity.
Did I mention they are Nuns, Nuns that grow weed?
You have to read this excellent article in
Rolling Stone...

Setting up a new smart TV recently nearly
fried my brain..!
I know--quiet down boomer, I know...
This woman who nobly quarantined herself
in the bathroom on a flight to Iceland
after discovering she had Covid...
Probably had the best in-flight, passenger
experience on the aircraft...
With the hillbilly state of 
passenger aircraft travel now,
riding the entire flight in the shitter,
and not having to put up with your
fellow passengers is probably preferable?

If you are a rabid anti-vaxxer and
die from Covid for your personal free-dum philosophy, 
do you still get this government benefit
from your 'supposed' Federal Government oppressor 
whom you claim is trying to poison you
by asking you to vaccinate and not die?
If the vaccination refusal people do qualify for this 
benefit then,
really,
 just what the fuck?

This guy was not a member of the human
species...
This is what racist, conservative, NRA, misogynistic
 creates
...Morbius's monsters from the id...

These 1%er's feeding on regular people's children
finally got some kind of pay-back.
That bitch was found guilty.
I can only hope she starts trading information
on the other 1%er's involved like
Clinton, Trump, Alan Dershowitz and 
Prince Andrew---
for the possibility of a cell in Minimum Security...
for a long-long time.

I took my Mercedes, turbo-diesel, Smart
out for a drive Christmas morning.
It was quiet and nice and
I just drove it around the neighborhood
to charge it up, keep the fluids good.
As I was meandering about the neighborhood
I spotted another Smart parked on the street 
and I had to stop and get a photo of 
the two of them together!
Whenever I look at this photo however,
I keep thinking..
"Luke I am your father"
for some Goddamn reason?

In an effort to fight the ongoing guitar slump..
I cleaned:
 the entire studio and guitar workroom,
 all guitars and supplemental equipment,
and finally started two guitar repair jobs
I think, what I am attempting to do,
is to kill this, seemingly, never ending
playing slump, by improving the environment
that I work in for the upcoming new year.
I am doing it because I am at a loss, 
I've tried almost everything else...

December was a great month for me
in finding cheap, and/or cheap homage watches.
Just yesterday I found and 
ordered an insanely good copy of 
Citizen's, Promaster Aqualand,
 Divers watch..displayed below.
This newest homage watch cost me all of $19.00 US...
The company that makes this Aqualand homage,
also makes watches with built in cigarette lighters?
On viewing this bizarre combination of fire and time,
my first thought on a cigarette lighter/watch
combination is:
"What could possibly go wrong"
I'll report on and provide photos of
 my newest homage acquisition
in the next blog.

I loved Resurrections.
The visuals were incredible..
 I have to watch it
fifteen more times before I can explain it
to anyone, 
including explaining it to myself?
This was an insanely good week for 
movie watching...
Don't Look up was fucking amazing!
It was such a perfect commentary on so so much
of our current time, 
that it caused me to feel deep, deep shame.
Watch this flim..!

Happy New Year..

I figure he'll get bored and die, and then I will rule!

We don't do Christmas.

I have no Palmaris Longus muscle.
14% of our population does not have this muscle.
Does this make me special or weird?
That's a really hard thing to tell
once you start thinking about it,
special or weird?
I seem to be confused,
I thought Tasers were supposedly
non-lethal?
I continue to wonder
how much more totally fucked up can we get?



Anti-vaxxers can now be considered  
"legally stupid" 
since Sarah Palin is now giving speeches 
at their meetings.
In her most recent speech..
she claimed they'll have to vaccinate her
"over her dead body"
 We couldn't get so lucky?

There has been recently a slew of
articles on the Net of how the
Republicans are going to arm up, rise up
and overpower the government?
No need to worry...
These Republican, conservative,'patriots' like to parade around
all geared up, they are armed Psycho cos-playing turds.
Just old fat, bullies full of bluster
and bullshit.
In addition to being simply stupid.
They are all cowards when it
comes to the actual fighting part.
The ones that will shoot,
 specialize in shooting the
unarmed, the innocent.
Not in attacking
 units with the capability of
actually firing back.
These people are as brave as their
fearless leader 
Trump,
and as full of bullshit as he is.

we allow a piece of shit,
to have this kind of power?

A friend who I gigged with often is moving
and he built me an electric, cigar box guitar as a parting gift.
I've seen these played on you-tube etc...
but have no idea what to do with it as of yet?
So I'll be attempting to figure it out
as best I can.
It is electric with a piezo pickup beneath
the bridge...
I'll keep you posted?
Otherwise my ongoing, guitar playing slump,
remains in effect...?

Honestly,
I've never heard of this guy before but...
I massively applaud him for what he is doing!

I managed to conclude multiple
watch projects this week due to
 cold weather and subsequently
 being stuck indoors.
I fixed a structural problem and installed 
a new battery in my 
Timex 922 Expedition chronograph.
I also mated it to a NATO band and
mounted a turtle compass on the band as well.
I repaired an older, malfunctioning, ,
Citizen Promaster Navigator
that I got off of Ebay, very cheap,
due to it's failure to
routinely function properly..
I'd been meaning to repair it for awhile
but my headspace had to be right so...
Now was the time..
This watch now works perfectly,
 and I mated it to a new
silicone black band.
My $27.00 Homage Citizen Ecozilla, dive watch
arrived this week. It works perfectly and
keeps great, very accurate time.
I had to change out the band because 
25 dollar watches have watchbands that
are made out of God only knows what.
 Replacing the watchband
 is always a given on watches like these.
I am wearing it as I write this
 and I am very, very happy with it!
Last and Least..
A Seiko flight chronograph that was
given to me because it was broken..
I cleaned it up and I managed to get the 
sub-dials, the chronograph functions,
 working but I cannot get the main
hands to move?
I'll work on it again, but it may be one of 
those times when I have to accept that
going forward with a fix can kill everything?
Who knows?
 I'll think on it for a bit..
I put an old brown
leather strap on it just to see how it 
would look and this watch is actually
pretty classy.
I hope I can get it working and useful again.
OK so...
I know, I know,
You're

I've been down for awhile now..
So...
Tom Waits
Waltzing Matilda 
suits how I feel...

Season 2...
Sorry to tell you this but..
to me,
Eh--Season 2 really, stunningly sucked..
I had zero idea of what was going on?
