It's like we're smart, but we're not!

In accomplishing simple errands this week I could feel 
the strangeness of holidays invading people.
That insane, infectious, vibration that makes a herd
of Wildebeests turn, and for no reason,
run off a cliff...
We engage in nothing the next two months,
that our society considers a social requirement.
I fucking hate holidays..

I am playing chess, once a week, with my 86 year old,

across the street neighbor.
He's good..we usual split the two rounds we play.

Sooo---
just another 85 million down the toilet in Afghanistan.
Somebody on our side had a
 genius idea about building a huge, 
5 star hotel in Kabul?
Across the road from the American Embassy.
Well...Surprise..

They stole the fucking money.
Just don't even try to explain this to me.

How 85-million failed to build a swanky hotel in kabul

When Police are used as corporate tools...

backlash is inevitable...

Police use water cannons on Dakota access protesters

I've been working my way,
listening through

Eric Clapton CD collection.
I do this every once in a while for guitar
re-inspiration.

I believe Clapton's birthday March 30th,
should be a national holiday--
Don't give me that "he was born in England" shit,
probably in a whiny, smart-assed voice....

Fucking Columbus was born in Italy
and we get his birthday day off!

I ramble--but nonetheless-- 
I also bought a used Clapton CD,
(one of the few I do not have)

and a used biography..

Climate change is a scam...right?

I'm sure high tides in Miami Beach didn't cause

this Octopus to float into a parking garage?

It must have strolled in on it's own....
Beware of the..
Urban Octopus?

This article has had me smelling myself,
every 5 minutes...?
What causes old person smell???

Do you actually realize how hard it
is to smell yourself all over?

The Netherlands exists just to make 'Murica feel bad.

yes humans are capable of---

The New Mexico weather is inching toward foul.
The result is a bit of Citroen 2cv work.

The basic chassis and engine is complete.
Although more detail will be added soon.

The exterior has been painted.
I used a Rustoleum color and combination spray yellow paint,
If the spray paint results turn out as well as I believe
it might, I may stick with this type/style of spray paint and 
never buy the more expensive modeling spray paint again!

If the interior is a success I am planning on building
this kit with the very large canvas sunroof open.

I'm practicing daily, but I just cannot get anything
to sound, or turn out the way I'd like....
This really, really sucks...really!

I truly have been trying to work on new techniques,
new, to me, songs. and I am constantly attempting to develop 
a solo act..
All this so as not to fall into the usual practice
procrastination...

I cannot seem to find the magic necessary
for a solo guitar act...that elusive music hook...
If this doesn't change then I will have to ask myself..
what am I practicing for??

so..the Rich are hiring more&more bodyguards...

because of:
Immigrant people, refugee people,angry middle class people,poor people,
unemployed people, ugly people, street people,sick people,
noisy people, fat people, people with signs,badly dressed people,
people who disagree with them, insane people, progressive people,
veteran people, people who give a shit about other people.
You know--they need to be protected from
everybody but people exactly
like them.. 

The mega rich suddenly all want bodyguards?
