Hard to believe
Still find it hard to believe that the G-20 summit is being held in the same building in Pittsburgh that Anthrocon was held in only a few months ago.Wonder if Kage will ask the convention center staff for the same chair that Obama sat in for his opening ceremonies pannel next year?

A great one passes
I just heard that muscian Les Paul passed away.Most people may remember him from his invention of the Les Paul solid body electric guitar(of which I owned two at one time or another).But he also invented multi- track recording which the music world would not have been the same without.Les was also a great guitarist in his own right(still playing in public until a few weeks ago at age 94.Wish I could have gone to that NYC club to see him live).I will miss him.

An update of a sort
Since I last updated this thing,I managed to take a vacation of a few weeks from work.Went to the shore,did some much needed home projects etc.Lately,I have been feeling very depressed and lonely.Sorry to sound so "emo" if that's a the right word for it,but I tend to get this way when I run into a lot of stress either at work or in life in general.It's the feeling of being a failure at everything I try to do and as a result the feeling of being worthless the comes with it.Middle age getting the better of me? I dunno,but I don't like being like this.I haven't written anything since I saw some fellow on a furry message board call my writings "absolute crap".Granted,I know I'm not a novelist.But can't I at least try to do something halfway decent?

For the 4th!
Today is the 4th of July! Today one of the things you often hear is all the Sousa marches that are supposed to give you a patrotic feel.In that light,I have one here that seems to sum up the shape our county is in right now(despite everything our prez is trying to do right now).Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F85eon989zU Current Mood:  crazy |

Little known fact
TV pitchman Billy Mays was laid to rest today in a cemetary just a few miles away from where Anthrocon is currently being held.Who would have guessed? Current Mood:  surprised |

time goes on
In less than 3 hours,I will turn 44 years old.It's amazing how somethings change over time,yet some things stay the same.I saw a movie on TV the other day that was made in the late 80's.Even though it doesn't seem that long ago,I could not get over how "dated" everything looks now.Guess there is something to that whole "perception of time" philosophy I heard about while watching a Science Channel documentary once.Well,I have one more year to go before my offical "mid-life crisis" is supposed to kick in(according to a lot of Men's magazine articles).Wonder if I'll have enough money saved up to buy a Corvette and get a trophy wife by then?

An odd day
Today is Father's Day.However,due to the fact that I never had kids of my own and my own Father passed away some two years ago now,it kind of leaves me feeling a bit odd.I keep wondering if not setting down with woman,getting married and starting a family was the right decision.I am a person who doesn't like to do what is expected of them(a non-conformist rebel of sorts),so for a long time the idea of having a wife,home & 2.5 kids(one of each sex according to the ideal American Family) repulsed me.I wanted to do my own thing.While I did get the home and the steady job,I didn't have the family.I guess that now that I'm hitting middle age(I'll be 44 in two weeks),I start to wonder what life would have been like to have been a father.Oh,well.I guess I'll just play the hand life has delt me and see where I end up.

Memories
This was the very first rock song I ever heard as a kid.I was aorund 7 years old back in the early 70's and our bus driver had his transistor radio tuned to our local college radio station.I keep imagining Goofy doing all the odd bits in front a rock band trying to play onstage(of course,being Goofy he usually ends up flying off the stage with his arms flailing,but doesn't give up and keeps coming back to try again!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGaVUApDVuY Current Mood: nostalgic |

Huh.
You know,I always wondered what it would like like if you took a bunch of hardcore speed metal heads form the late 80's aged them 20 years and crossed them with a bunch of pirates.Well,maybe I was running a fever at the time since I didn't imagine this bizzare thing.
