One Turkey don't stop no show

Good Morning and thanks for checking in for the minute-by-minute updates.


First of all, Happy Thanksgiving.

I always liked Thanksgiving. As far as actual holidays go, It is pretty much my first choice. It wasn't always my favorite. I am pretty sure that if I had thought about it back in kindergarten I would have chosen Chistmas. That was back in the day when I didn't have to worry about anything being expected from me except to wake up and go grab my presents. I might have picked up a nice rock and given it to someone or maybe even take a moment and draw a picuture for someone but it seems like all that was pretty much optional. I think the reason it is hard to remember is because during that time I was pretty amazed that there was dude that was going to be flyining in on his magic sled and also that he was going to be bringing me something really cool. Yeah, I liked that. Santa Clause was definitely a the kind of magic dude that I would have wanted to hang out and cruise around with.

Speaking of Dudes I would have wanted to hang out with, I would have to say John Lennon, Bob Marley, & Willie Nelson. I would have said Lightnin' Hopkins but I would not want to take a chance of meeting him and finding out he didn't like me. That would hurt too much and I am not big on suffering if it can be avoided.

But yeah. I am thankful. I think the real trick is to figure out the correct things to be thankful for and in the process figure out the things that are not worth worrying about.

Speaking of not worrying, I got a chance to visit the Blue Flash Blues jam at Kens Club last tuesday night. If you like bluesjams, check thiers out on Tuesday nights at Kens Club at 8pm (or so). It is located on wilcrest at Bellaire Blvd.

Now I need to go and fill out some forms to apply for my one man band bailout package. I don't need 700 or even 1 billion. I am only asking for 9.3 million. If you wonder how I came up with the number, I just picked it out of the air but I like the way it sounds. I would accept 9.1 or even 8.5 million but it will still not be quite the same as 9.3.

Rock On.
