For those of you just tuning in, our president has effectively postponed the election process. If anything happens in October that is even the least bit terroristy, we will have Martial Law. The neocons will collectively lose their shit and Bush will postpone the general election. Indefinitely.So! I'm thinking the quickest route to Canada is straight through Wisconsin and Minnesota and once I hit Winnipeg, assuming I get across, I'm gonna work my way west to Vancouver. I think that's where the progressive rebels will probably head.
We are so fucked. I wish John Lennon were alive to see this. He'd fucking spit and punch a hole through a wall.
One love.

Come to think of it, maybe it was Papa Bush's crew that had John Lennon whacked in the first place, so I guess it's all connected.
I always wanted to visit Vancouver, B.C.
I saw Pink Floyd in Vancouver. It was amazing! And Grateful Dead was playing in another venue. You never saw so many tie dyed vans crossing the border in your life!

Well, not YET anyway.
And Grateful Dead was playing in another venue.
When was that show... if it was back in the mid 80's, I almost went!
It was '95, '96 or there abouts. You'll understand if I don't remember much of it...
Different show. The last time I saw them was in the late 80's before I went in the Army. It was probably about my 200th Dead show.
You saw 200 Dead shows and then joined the Army.
You're a complex dude, SoS.
I never got into the Dead, all their songs sounded the same to me. Coulda been 'cos I was high. And there's nothing like Yes or Tull when you're tripping. The Dead lovers were my cohort's older siblings, plus, I was on the East coast back when they were really cool, and we listened to Doors over and over.
I'm complex, too, dammit, I did all that stuff and joined the Navy! Must credit meeeeee!!
I never had any doubts about YOUR complexity, coyote.
Why...thanks...I think.
I pride myself on my simplicity.
So there.
Ha!
You're a complex dude, SoS.
Just old... and thankful I lived this long... believe me, I'm well preserved or pickled, whichever.
In fact I just listened to "Wharf Rat"... "What a long strange trip its been..." all these years.
I had the opportunity to see the "Dead" so many times because I grew up in the Bay Area and lived the scene. When they went on sabbatical... I was living in Hawaii smoking some good ole' "Christmas Tree Bud!" Made my first attempt at college... it didn't take. Still too much of that free spirit... in 2 1/2 years it turned into "freebase", which is now reffered as "crack"!
Rough years, after hitting "rock' bottom...
To me that sounds like a life well-lived and worth living. You're the real deal. I'm honored.
I see the pictures and hear the stories and listen to the music and wonder, "Whatever happened to those dudes?" And here we have one.
I feel cooler by association.

Ok, all I ask for is a break when I fuck up sentence and paragraph structure... English is my worst subject.
All kidding aside MV, I thank you... I really owe it to a loving wife who puts up with my mentally disabled ass. I'm F.I.N.E.: Fucked-up, Insecure, Neurotic, and Emotional.
And Dude... I got a thousand story's of my life... don't get me going.
One time living in Hawaii... I picked up this black dude hitchhiking (an Army Soldier from Schofield Barracks) and we were going to check out the Surf contests on the North Shore. So we drink some beers and smoke some bud... he falls asleep on the beach... I'm checking out the scene... I go get him when it's time to split... he's been out the whole time. I wake him, he gets up all startled, starts grabbing his skin on his back and goes off on me, "You asshole, how could you let me stay out in the sun all that time?" I'm really green socially and I tell him, "I wasn't even thinking about it... and to be honest I didn't think you could get sunburned." He looks at me incredulously, and says, "Honestly man, I'm new to Hawaii, neither did I!"
He put his shirt back on... we smoked a joint, had a beer and both laughed it off.
And another time in Hawaii... nah, just kidding.

Can't promise you that, but I'll try. 8) English was my ONLY subject. Just don't post a blog with 62 links and we'll be fine.
"Honestly man, I'm new to Hawaii, neither did I!"
Awesome. I wouldn't have known either!!
I gotta get back to Hawaii. I was lucky to spend five days in Maui when I was in high school. EVERYBODY tried to sell me weed. I say "tried" because I was too paranoid and too unskilled in making a bowl out of a Coke can, so I declined.
"Mountian-grown". Cheap prices. Ah, they were prolly cops.
Soon as I make it big, I'm taking all my friends first class to Oahu. We're gonna rent Charo's house for a month and relax.
Cool! We can all go looking for Magnum, PI locations!
I was living there when they filmed it.
Neato! Did you see them zooming around in the ferrari?
No, but when I was strung out on "Freebase" I always saw the helicopter overhead!
That is so cool. I'm sure I've said it before, but I own season one on DVD and the show holds up, man.
