...Florida Football..
... a great, and wise euphemism can be deployed here to describe the state of Florida Football this past Saturday... two simple, yet eloquent words, children...
... tits up...
#3 Miami defeated by North Carolina... #5 FSU defeated by Maryland... and, the unranked Gators defeated by #7 Georgia...
... and, no... it's not ALL Zook's fault..

Self-doubt...
... there are times in each of our lives when, well, quite simply, we doubt ourselves... we wonder if we are doing The Right Thing... we search our souls looking for some sort of verification... are we happy?... are we content?... are we really where we should be in life?...
... for some of us, we get that validation in the strangest of places... maybe we are vain... in which case... having a trophy wife, nice car, six figure salary, and six-pack abs is where it's at... for others, having a party of good friends close by is the keystone... and, then... of course, there is Me...
... recently, I received my validation... my signpost that, indeed, I was traveling the correct road in life... proof that in some way, I had arrived....
.. behold, children... the ultimate gift... positive reinforcement that you ARE doing the right thing...

... heh... here's a closeup...

Some things I've read here would lead me to believe that as far as DIGIT's are concerned, they(digits) could possibly be similar, but truly, only someone that had seen both could be sure? Have ya?

You see, RedNeck, I have a very well documented and perverse Digit Fetish. I notice things like digit size, quality, and several other factors that I won't go into here as to not drag this into the gutter any further than it already is.
And true, Qerry's digits are long, but thing and gracile, where V-man's are much more robust.
Proctology=Gracile for all the wimpy guys. Gynocology=Robust if a girl's is lucky.

Playboy revisited...
... well... here it is... the photo of me and my two lovely Bunnies.... Tiffany and April... it should be noted, however, that they asked ME.. and, this was NOT my idea of a Halloween costume..... still, we pulled it off.... and it was a VERY enjoyable experience.... even if April did hang on a wee bit too tight at times.... poor lass... she's easily excited, after all...

.. here is a larger version for you... if you so choose....
... so, out of 32 partakers, we were ruled a unanimous 4th place... we should have won... on sheer brilliance alone..... dammit... justice is just never served... woe unto those who trust a judge.. just don't do it, children.... unless you've recently signed over the family homestead in a secret meeting in his chambers..... if that's not the case?... well, it's fourth place for you then, Pally...
.. one interesting conversation was had, though.... with Biker Steve.... who, when looking at my tux, said... "Hell, you look like that every damn Wednesday night.... what's the big deal?".... but, in his defense, he hadn't seen my Bunnies yet... and, as we all know, Bunnies make all the difference...

Halloween....
... this is the best holiday of the year... hands down.... Christmas is always a bust, and Thanksgiving is all about football.... Halloween, on the other hand, is all about bringing out that inner fiend youngster we all keep locked up... well... present company excepted, of course... you rubberneckers are ALL ABOUT getting in touch with your inner child... I mean, that IS why you are here, right?
... oh, and for all of you people who said I should be clad in silk pajamas and smoking jacket... bite me.... I am wearing the black tux, and that is that... maybe I won't be Hef after all... instead, I will simply be a Gentleman who is being tended to by his Bunnies... after all, that is what it is all about... right?....
... and before I forget... the Ladies are opting for formal-yet-sexy evening dress... accented by pink bunny ears, black bowties, and fluffy white targets tails... so, there you have it... tomorrow is the big day... we be set, children... they'll be carrying a pitcher of stirred martinis... on a silver platter... for most of the day... life is good...
... with all that said, I feel the need to mention, just in passing, the sight which I beheld upon entering my humble home this evening.... The Wife... holding, as is her evening custom, my freshly poured Scotch..... she was also wearing my black Stetson.. a red dot firmly planted between her eyes, and a silk Sari.... great bloody Hell... what IS this outfit!??!.... after further inquiry, I was informed that she intends to dress as a Cowboy AND an Indian tomorrow.... Lord, help us... she's got some wires crossed, methinks....
... Halloween, children... it is for ALL of us... enjoy it while you can...

Harvest Moon...
... another fine Wednesday is in the bag, children..... last night's Social Club gathering was a real event.... for those of you tards who have had your head in the sand, a full lunar eclipse happened last night.... so, being adventurers at heart, we grabbed the old telescope, and dragged it out into the driveway.... what a sight....
... in between shooting pool, mixing drinks, and running out to check the status of the eclipse, we had a blast... Bike Steve was in rare form... for once, he didn't bring beer... so, he was on cranberry juice and gin.... a lethal concoction.... Cousin B was sipping his beers... I was on the Scotch... and, just as the eclipse reached it's zenith, the Straight White Wife arrived with pizza and chicken kickers.... hell, it doesn't get much better than that....
... although tame... as far as Wednesday meetings are concerned, three drunks... standing in the dark... trying to locate the moon in a telescope.... well, we did have some comedic moments... but, it was worth the effort... good friends, good weather, good booze... and, good food.... and thus passed another meeting of the Eagle Glen Social Club... with an eclipse of the Harvest Moon...

Beating a Snake..
... on my way to Nashville on Sunday, my Sainted Mother told me a story from her childhood..... we were bored... and hey, it's a long ride to Nashville...
... that being said, this story was quite different... not exactly your normal "up hill, both ways" kinda thing... she, of course, swears it is true... and, I've since asked her siblings for verification... all of them 'fessed up... so, dear ones, what you are about to hear is true... in the colloquial.. if not, 100% in the empirical senses...
... back about 1960, the core family members were sitting around having dinner one Sunday afternoon.... the kitchen door lead out onto the back porch... the back yard was filled with cherry and apple trees... with woods, and a barn beyond... the storm door was propped open to allow a balmy Southern breeze to drift through their small house.... peaceful, and serene...
... as they were finishing up dinner, a 6-foot blacksnake slithered up from the lawn, and through the screen door into the kitchen... much pandemonium ensued... three screeching daughters, a wailing wife, and a WWII combat veteran scrabbling around attempting to throttle a wayward reptile... eventually, it was cornered under a book case... battered by brooms and mops, it gave up the foray into the house, and headed back to the kitchen and escape...
... now, children... here is where it gets interesting.... once the snake was on the back porch, my Grandfather broke a switch off a nearby cherry tree... and, while the poor snake was coiled in fear, he began whipping it with the switch.... the snake convulsed... twisted.... turned... and, here comes the real bullshit moment.... after a few mighty whacks, it raised up like a cobra... and cried like a baby..... yeah... you heard that right.... I'm not talking tears here... just the sound of a crying baby... ole Grandpa kept whipping it, and the snake just took the beating... all the while bleating like a newborn...
... strange shit, people... even stranger that my Aunts all, as witnesses, agree.... perhaps it is the result of mass snake-induced hysteria... I just don't know.... but, here is the question... first off, why'd Grandpa WHIP a snake?... why not just dispatch it with a nearby hoe, or shovel?.... secondly... aren't snakes incapable of making a noise?... no vocal cords, right?... and, thirdly... what the hell?... why on EARTH would anyone make up such a crazy-assed story as that?.... anyway, there you have it... The Story of the Crying Snake.... weird, indeed....
... kinda reminds me of that line from Lou Reed's song... "The Last Great American Whale".... "my Mother said she saw him in Chinatown.. but, you can't always trust your Mother"...

I was buzzed, people... freaked, and buzzed... see, we have a lot of firearms around the house... so, I thought I was in for it...
... so, as meekly as I possibly could, I called through from the blogroom... "you been listening to Pink Floyd today, dear?.. I hear you humming"...
... "No, no.." says she.... "The Beach Boys!"... WTF, gentle readers.. The Beach Boys??.... and then, I hear it... I hear that soft Scots lilt begin the chorus.... "Aruba, Jamaica.. OOHH, I wanna take ya!"...
... then, I got it... amazing how the mind works, eh?.... however... our vacation is coming up in two weeks... where are we going?... Aruba?.. Bahamas?... C'mon Pretty Mammas?.... nope... friggin SCOTLAND.. in NOVEMBER... sweet Jesus... there shall be no swimming on THIS holiday... and, anyone in a bikini will be instantly hypothermic upon walking out the door.... people, Scotland in November is not a vacation... it's a death sentence..... somehow, this is all just so very, very wrong...
... our vacation is coming... and, while conjuring up scenes of beaches and bikinis... the cold, hard truth of the matter is coal fires, Wellingtons, and the In-Laws.... at least, AT LEAST there will be mulled wine, and fine single malt... otherwise, I'd just shoot myself now....
.. yes, people... in two weeks, I am taking a vacation.... pity me.... anyone want to guestblog?.. I may be some time....

I know that people often say that something made them "laugh their ass off" and such, and probably most of the time it is an exaggeration. However, the first time I saw "Blazing Saddles," I laughed uncontrollably -- and it was in a theater. Every time I have seen it since, I still laugh my ass off. I have so many favorite scenes, but the one that always, always does me in is the scene where the guys are sitting around the campfire eating the beans. Christ, I'm laughing just thinking about it. Thanks for reminding me.

That *is* my favorite comedy movie of all time with most of the Marx Brothers offerings right after (and the other Mel Brooks films too). Top Three Favorite movies? Casablanca, Blazing Saddles, The Quiet Man.
Favorite lines from "Saddles":
"What in the wide wide world of sports is going on here? And why are you all dancing 'round like a bunch of Kansas City faggots?"
"Howard Johnson is right.."
"The sheriff is a ni*Bong*..."

Alex Karris used to come to my house when I was a kid and he was playing football for the Detroit Lions. One thing I will always remember about his visit's was, even though he was a very big man (I was a young kid in my early teens) was how quietly he walked in our house even though I thought he would shake the house. The first time I saw him I opened the door and looked straight ahead, then up and up and up. He stood there smiling and asked if my dad was home. I was so shocked to see such a big man at our door I just shook my head yes and let him in when my dad came into the living room LOL He was such a nice man too and I enjoyed seeing him in the movies and the TV series he was in. I never got an autographic picture but I did get to meet him.

Blogfest 2006...
... the Eagle Glen Social Club was in fine session Wednesday evening... and, I rocked.... however, I learned a valuable lesson.... when playing "winner holds the table"... do not win ALL of the games... it's just plain bad manners.... and, after two hours, your guests have a tendency to pull a Cartman on you.... "Screw you guys, I'm going home"... thus, although I enjoyed the hell out of it, Biker Steve and his friend left quite early.... heh..
... this, of course, left me able to retire early, and re-watch that classic of American Culture... The Breakfast Club.... yeah, I know... but, hell... it's worth watching just for that short glimpse of Ringwald's pink panties... I must admit though, Sheedy is more my type... even before she was cleaned up.... there's just something about that angry, mysterious, violent, geek-chick nymphomaniac with dark hair that just APPEALS to me...
...anyway, since our orgy on the Chattahoochee, I must admit that I have been a wee bit delicate... it seems that things are slowly working their way back to normal... I mean at least I've stopped burping up apple-flavored lava...
... so, to the point... I know that some people are already setting plans afoot for another meet-up... locales are being bandied.... I have to admit, I've no dog in this race... Nawlins is as good as any for the Spring... but, with some late breaking news... might I suggest Vegas?....

... yeah, yeah... my site was busted yesterday... I'm sure you two were really bored without me... anyway, I just stumbled upon this wonderful article about re-making movies... and, their ever-so-slight nuances of change...
"In the kiddie version, children fantasize about seeing juicy gumdrops and getting Everlasting Gobstoppers. In the XXX version, men fantasize about juicy buttocks and everlasting lap dances. Nevertheless, in both films, viewers project themselves into these fantastical situations to obtain a kind of "sweet" gratification. "
... honestly, I have a confession... I have not seen either movie... ever... I promise.... but, I thought it might amuse YOU rubberneckers...

... a hearty thanks goes to Geoffrey and Gordon for the Clam Chowder... having fresh Boston Chowder hand delivered to the North Georgia mountains was a real treat.. and, thank you... oh, and I promise to leave my knife at home next time we get together..
... next up.. Denny stole my bed AND my room... Grouchy indeed... the LAST thing I expected to see after closing down the bar with Ken, Aubrey, Gordon, and Geoffrey was a nekkid cripple in my bed when I got home... and, I must say, that damn fig leaf was a nice touch.... see Kelley's audio blog for further details.. still, Denny played my Fender MUCH better than I could... so, all is forgiven..
... and, also.. I owe Dax a thank you... I am now the proud owner of the first assembly line production of the Zellmillernator... hell, it has pride of place on my mantle piece as we speak.... but, Dax... as a favor.. please... NEVER give me the dregs of the Apple Brandy again... that was the straw, man.. and, my back ain't been the same since....
... Acidman.. you magnificent bastard... thanks for letting me harmonize screech along side you during "He Went to Paris".. and, thanks for not smacking me upside the head when I recited read "The Ballad of Blasphemous Bill".... Mamma, I hope you liked it... it ain't going to happen again..... that was a one off... just for you... and, Catfish... I'm glad you bought a Service book... read, and enjoy, man...
... Key, Velociman, and Kelley.. I trust that stroking your hair was not too out-of-line... as for me, I enjoyed every minute of it.... still, what is done... well, it is done.. but, you have to admit.. you enjoyed it...
... Laughing Wolf.. man, I am sorry for the Loch Tay incident.... word, brother.. I shall practice more before next time....
... Jim... Ken... good God... what were you people thinking.... not only did you come down and survive, you THRIVED... I have a totally new view of Jerseyites now... you guys rocked...
.. Zonker.. you showed up with two cartons of cigarettes.... man, that is just too fucking cool... even though you don't smoke, you had the correct peace offering... sorry I got too drunk to talk with you very much.. hey, man... it happens....
... Mr Crawford, Sir... Half-Rubber is for the damn birds... I am sore from head to toe... you bastard.... next time I meet you, I'll show you what to do with that bat....
.. Aubrey, you are a bad influence, man.... Evil White Guy, indeed... if I'm ever in Texass, we're hooking up again..
... oh, and Sam... you may not have been there... but, your spirits were.. and, that's what counted, my brother... Just Damn!...
... thanks again, to BryanH of Redneck Ramblings... although much hard booze was consumed, each beer downed was cool.. all thanks to you and your Koozies.... you da man...
... Kenny and Barbara... what can I say?.. you are two fine peeps... and, it was a pleasure to mix you guys up some appletinis..
... Rick and Georgia.... when I grow up, I want to be just like you guys...
... and finally... to Chip... the "fan".... single.. solitary.... standing coolly... mountain-like... at the corner of the bar watching us act crazy.... poor guy...
... in the end, I think the highlight of Blogtoberfest was manifold... I got to meet some new friends.. re-meet some old ones... but, I can't just pick one action.. one episode.... one debased act of cruelty love.... but, I know this...

The Soundtrack...
... I swear, people.... singing must be the purest form of expression.... I spent some time thinking about my dream today.... and, although I will provide no details for you perverts.... I will offer this tiny tidbit.... one thing that DID resound through the first dream... and, it was the voice of Margo Timmins... ala The Cowboy Junkies... she was singing a song out of Patsy Cline's bag... and, she was melting it.... Walking After Midnight.... That song is killer anyway, but Margo just crushes it.. squeezes out the meaning, and throws away the husk... I swear, she kills me...
... I first heard this song after being awake for 39 hours straight.. I was a total walking zombie... freshly debriefed, and awaiting billeting for the night at an airbase... I was standing there... waiting for the fat Tech Sgt. behind the counter to assign me a room... and, that is when, I heard it... softly streaming from one of the half-asleep Zoomie's rooms... Ms. Timmins was tearing it up...and, ever since then, Margo's version of this song never fails to get a reaction... hell, I think I fell in love at that moment... if only, with her voice... singing... it can get to you...

I've lost track of how many copies of The Trinity Sessions I've gone through.
A friend gave me a cassette back in 1988(?), and said that I was the only person he knew who would appreciate it. I did! I have since given away (loaned out and never got back), or purchased as gifts, at least 12-15 since then. In fact, I gave one to a friend as a going away gift about two months ago.
Walking after Midnight, Sweet Jane, Misguided Angel...in fact, every track on the album is just amazing.
I think I'll go put it in the player now.

Eric,
I got a kid that costs me a shitload of money. He cuts the grass nowadays. I'm 42, enjoy 31, all you're parts still work. Scotch and Dean Martin. Sound's to me like I'm drunk and accidentally channel surfed over to a Jerry Lewis movie. The watchin' "other" people cut your grass can be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on how anal you are about your lawn. Rednecks like to grow grass, weeds, tomatoes, freakin' hot peppers and big tits on the female gender. Oh, sorry, got off track there. My bad. Anyway Happy Birthday/Week. However long it takes you to get over you're another year older. I'm a sour puss. The only thing I want on my birthday anymore is to be left alone. No I ain't tak'in you nowhere, ask your mom. No I don't wanna go eat cause I'm a year closer to dyin' and no just no. Oh, yeah, get me another beer, it's my birthday and I'm to old to get it myself.(Grass cutter supplying beer in this case). Can't wait 'til they have a few more birthdays and become capapble of acomplishing beer RUNS. Now that's the birtyday I'm look for. I'll probably be in a chair(like I'm not now) by then, but if you think gettin' your lawn cut is "da bomb", you're still learnin'. Good on ya. Oh, one more piece of wisdom, as you get older, coolers beside you get better. You don't wanna be heard hollerin' "Help me I've fallen and I can't get up".

5 more days...
... the time is drawing nigh, children.... the gathering is about to start.. sweet Kelley is so excited she's just about to bust... Lila too, is right there... as for me, I too, am getting excited... however, it is dawning on me that... well... many of us bloggers who will be gathering in the dark Georgia Mountains to party-down... well, we might not know where to start... so, here are a few helpful hints for the upcoming Blogtoberfest...
... number one.. .if you are a Veteran, you'd better have your challenge coin... I'll have mine... and, I like to drink.. word...
... number two.. if you are a male.. and, you are bringing a significant peripheral... you are well warned to keep them away from Rob, and Adam.. I'd say Kim too, but I'm sure Mrs. Velociman will keep him on a short leash... hell, on second thought, keep them away from Kim too... I, on the other hand, am quite harmless...
... number three.. do not mention SEC Football under any circumstances... this will cause mass pandemonium.. and, quite likely, some bloodshed... and, the last thing we want is the Chattahoochee River flowing with blood this close to Halloween...
... number four... Hillbilly, Cracker, and Redneck jokes should be fired out quite a bit... early on... but, they should be strictly prohibited after the evening whistle sounds... once again.. this is done in the interest of public safety... drunk Hillbillies, Crackers, and Rednecks can be wily and mean after a douse of alcohol...
... number five... under no circumstances should you EVER say anything along the lines of.... "I haven't seen this many Yankees in Georgia since Sherman waltzed through".... again, gentle ones, this will likely cause instantaneous combustion of a few bloggers... and, a severely violent action from a few others... hey, I am here to help...
... number six... if Dax offers you a Red Headed Slut, take it.... trust me.. also, if there is any Georgia or Tennessee 'shine present... be brave, little ones... you'll thank yourself for it later...
... number seven... Do NOT talk to Key about spanking, Blood Mountain, or Dahlonega... she gets quite blustery when she's flustered... and, although it is a thing of beauty, it is also quite startling...
... number eight... after the evening whistle, ask Kelley to sing a duet of "Bobby McGhee" with Georgia... again, children, this cannot be done often enough... with enough liquor, those two can sing the house down....
... number nine... Acidman's hair is SILVER... not gray.... Do not make the same mistake I made at Caruso's Pub.. word, my babies... SILVER....
... and, finally... number ten... enjoy yourselves... we are all here because we want to be together... so, have a few drinks... roll with the punches... enjoy the laughter... and, prepare for some good times.... I can't wait for October 15th, and the chance to meet some old friends... and, some new ones...

Watching the Buckeyes lose isn't something that goes over good in CBus. And, if/when the do, I know exactly who to blame.
And for the record SEC football is first class, but... if you wanna run with the Big Dogs, you gotta be in the Big Ten. Big Ten football is played the way football should be. Body parts pointing the wrong way, screams and war cries. Big FAT THICK ANKLED linemen and 3 yards and a could o' dust.
I like passing and all, and fast mo'fo's, don't get me wrong, but if you wanna dominate a football game, you gotta control the clock. If you wanna control the clock you gotta control the ball. Oh, and this is underacknowledged, you gotta have a KickAss defense that Northwestern can't pick apart.

When Cats Attack...

I have had it...
.... yesterday, as we all finished our first drinks in the den... we slowly began to wander towards the garage... Biker Steve... first out the door... commented thusly.... "Jesus, Eric... you been playing with your sword again?... who the hell diced up this mouse?"...
... people... a tiny mouse.. an innocent mouse... or, well.. the remains of one... was there beside the pool table... a head... an ass.. a pool of solidified blood... and a rather large pile of mouse shit... originally, I thought it was guts... but, no... it was mouse shit... not droppings... pre-dropping intestinal shit... it was totally disgusting... Fred, or Ginger had been naughty... I wasn't sure which... but, as Fred was the only one around, I gave him a swift kick as I headed over to the stereo... he squealed, and skedaddled... then, I scooped up the offensive material, and flung it into the woods... after all, I'd rather have the lawn-lurking fireants eat THAT than sending recon missions into the pantry for my bagels....anyway... just now on the deck, Fred was begging me for a stroke... sorry, Fred, you evil bastard... nothing doing, pal... quit killing stuff, you little bastard... or, at least when you kill it... eat every last scrap...
... Cats... they are the damn assault weapons of Mammalia.. dangerous to their very core.... slaying anything.. and, everything that they can.... and, before you lecture me... let me just say this to all you cat owners... if YOU were the size of a rabbit, Snuggums would be having YOU for dinner.. and that is a FACT... so, remember that the next time he's sitting in your lap purring...

Luuka's Hiwassee Trip...
... a few days ago, I told you all about heading up to the mountains to kick back with some friends.... well, since today is Wednesday here at the Eagle Glen Social Club... blogging shall be thin this evening... I shall be partaking of some adult beverages... shooting some pool... and, just generally. celebrating the fact that half of the workweek is behind me....
... anyway, I don't know if I'd mentioned it or not, but I took Luuka the Everyday Bear with me on my adventure.... here are the results...
... right from the very beginning, she was in her element, children... word... bears really, REALLY like the forest.... I took this photo while the ole A4 was hugging the curves and dips of the road to Reliance, TN.... by the way, see those curves?... THIS is a fun road to drive... and, no... Luuka doesn't get carsick... she kept wanting me to go FASTER....

... here's a big one...
... next up, we stopped at this little store.... it was straight out of a history book... well.. or, maybe Mayberry..

... here's a better view...
... to enjoy this view....

... ok, ok.. here's a bigger one...
... then, we pressed on into the National Forest...

..here's a close-up of Luuka chillin'...
... once we arrived at camp, Luuka fell in love with the "Cowboy"... hey, she said, "I LOVE everything Texan.. and, Cowboy's are HOTTT".. he tried to explain that he was an Alabamite.... well, to Luuka, he still qualified... I tried to keep telling her he wasn't a REAL Cowboy... and, she'd snap back at me.... (while wiping rivulets of drool from her chin)... "he's close enough, dammit!... he's close enough for ME!".... I tell you... I don't know how Helen kept this girl in line back in Europe...
... anyway, Kenny and the Cowboy kept her entertained with their crooning for a while... and, she enjoyed Barbara's company too... both of them seemed to love being around Cowboys and Kenny... go figure....

... here... this one has more important details... with arrows..
... finally, as we began to depart... Luuka inquired as to the location of the little-girl-bear's room... uh huh... you got it, people... she was in for a disappointment...

...so... what is the answer that age old question?... yes, Virginia... yes... and, the Pope is Catholic too... or, so I am told...

I agree- he meant to be dead. And, doctors at two hospitals made the "brain dead" call.
More importantly [stepping onto soapbox], you can donate organs/tissue while still alive, blood being most common. You can donate bone marrow, part of your liver, or a kidney (maybe even a lung- I'm not sure on that one)and still live a full life. My grandmother donated a kidney to my mom almost 30 years ago, and both are still alive and kicking. I'm a big proponent of organ/tissue donation [steps off soapbox].
But, yeah, you really should wait in most cases for death to actually occur. It's just better for the donor that way.

When a former guyfriend of mine returned from the State Patrol Academy, he IMMEDIATELY removed the 'organ donor' designation from his driver's license. It seems that they actually advised the guys and gals in the academy to do so. It's all a matter of numbers...
Apparently, there exists a predetermined number of blood units they will allow an individual before they give up hope, and evaluate the situation. He was told that if he arrives at the E.R. a terrible mess, that they: 1. can spend countless hours, and countless units of blood trying to save him, or 2. they can take his organs, and save several other people. The odds are that they will save the 'several'.

Oh, wow... this gets the mind spinning. What a horrible thing to have people that we are supposed to trust disagreeing on when we are actually dead. I don't think it matters what circumstances the patient is brought in under, all efforts need to first go into saving that patient. Even if he did try to blow his brains out. Who is to say that he didn't regret that decision before the first bullet ever hit him.

Apparently, there is enough concern over the life and death decisions associated with organ donors to deserve top billing on the list of Organ Donation: Myth vs. Reality.
http://health.discovery.com/convergence/giftoflife/myths/myths.html
I would like to think that my friend was misled about the decision making process, but I find that their defense "The medical staff trying to save lives is completely separate from the transplant team." doesn't really fit with what I have seen/read. I've have always understood that the decision to harvest had to occur immediately, and could not be postponed for more than a few minutes after a potential donor's passing.

Eric,
My father always like Robert Service. Many years ago for Father's Day or his birthday, I bought him a book of his poetry. His favorite was "My Madonna."
But, I think Sam McGee is the classic.

Creativity...
... yesterday, I drove up into the Cherokee National Forest, and had lunch by the Hiwassee River... played a little music, and had a few beers... the weather was crisp... but, not cold... Summer was still fighting its best to hang on... there were even times when the sunshine was actually a bit too warm, and we had to move our chairs into the shade... the campsite was perfect, too... surrounded by large wild cherry trees... and sycamores... the leaves of which had just started to turn a bright yellow from the cool evenings...
... when I arrived at camp, there was no one there... so, I just pulled up a chair, and started playing.... after about 15 minutes, Ken and Barbara appeared... they'd been out for an early afternoon stroll up one of the trails... and, it wasn't log before Ken dragged out his guitar, and began accompanying...
... sitting there under the shade of the sycamores playing... it was a real treat... but, neither Ken nor I are very good entertainers... enthusiastic, yes... polished, no... but, we love playing music regardless... about half an hour later, two cowboys show up at a campsite a few yards away... they pull out a guitar, and start harmonizing... well, musicians are social creatures... so, it didn't take long for them to wander over to our campfire, and introduce themselves... so, there we sat.. the four of us... and we played for 3 hours..
... what is it about a musician that makes them forego any of the normal day-to-day frivolities of "getting to know someone"... and, instead, just show up with their guitar, and say... "hey, I'm Mark... I saw you guys playing... mind if I join you?"... music just seems to bond people together... and, in my mind, it is one of the purest forms of creativity.. you, and an instrument... and, at the time, nothing else matters...
... when we had a lull in the playing, one of the cowboys asked if either of us had any material we had written... I spoke up, and said that I had written a tune, but had never put lyrics with it... and, that's when it happened... instantly, one of the cowboys grabbed a pencil and paper, and said.. "well, let's write some lyrics.. do you want a drinking song, a sad song, a love song... give me an idea, and I'll write it for you..." now, children... this totally took me by surprise.. hell, he hadn't even HEARD the tune...anyway, I told him I wanted a sad love song... then, I played the tune for him... the other cowboy began trying to learn my tune, and was playing along...
... and, here's the thing... within 10 minutes, they were playing and SINGING my song.. I couldn't believe it... it was incredible... it was a level of creativity that I had never seen before... me, I have never even tried to write lyrics to my tune... I just enjoyed playing it... and, sitting there beside the river, a tune that I've been working on for 8 years, suddenly was fleshed out... and had a new meaning...
... today, sitting here having my coffee... I was going over that scene in my mind... and, I thought to myself... do bloggers do that?... I sure don't.... do you look at your screen, and say... ok, today I am going to fisk the latest presidential debate... or, today I am going to tell a story from my past... and then, sit in your blogchair tying to think of something.... I mean, in other words, can you write on DEMAND... give me a topic, and I'll write a post... do you do that?.... I don't... I don't think I could...hell, I never know what I'm going to write until I sit down at the keyboard... still, yesterday was an eye-opener... I was shown a whole new level of creativity...

I certainly hope you'll record your song and post it for us. Congrats on that. It truly is one of the most satisfying things when something that had been a wisp in the back of your mind takes root and begins to grow. That's how I think of the music. Then when the flowers begin to bloom it's just a thing of beauty. That's when the words come. It's complete in a way you never dreamed of.
Long long time ago, I wrote music. Because I had to. It wouldn't leave me alone until I got it all out of my mind and shared it with others. It wasn't great, but it was mine. It was me. I don't do that so much anymore. I miss it. I'm glad you had that experience. For someone who loves music as much as you do....it's a very good thing.

Since a big part of my job is writing on demand (admittedly technical stuff, but I have to "spin" things quite often as well, so I think of it as creative writing...), I am forced to be creative on cue, and I do tend to plan a thread or theme that I weave throughout several posts that I write over a few days or weeks. Looks to me like people prefer what you do, though!!!

Jack on October 3, 2004 09:53 AM
Well,
I'm with Tammi. I think I'd like to hear it. Does the song have a title? If not, you outght to start a "contest" for a "Sad Love Song" title. I'm sure we could come up with something...
Hell raised by
BryanH on October 3, 2004 10:41 AM
This whole process of blogging is cocreative for me -- like music is for you -- and yet solitary and somewhat isolated, and so paradoxical -- the fact that people read what I write makes me want to write -- but also, like you, I can't plan a post -- it pops into my head as soon as I wake up in the morning, and if it doesn't, I find myself not feeling quite right all day. I can find stuff to write about-- but there is a certain willingness that needs to take place, especially about the more personal stuff, like honoring the authenticity of the process ...I shoulder the critics out of the room and wait, poised over the keyboard like a piano --
What a great story you shared, thanks.

I think I coudl write on demand if it was real, as in if you picked a topic that was real to me. I could never write fiction. I can only write what I see, what I perceive.
But for me, I just have so much crap in my head every day, I've never had to do that. I have tons of stuff I've written, just sitting in a word document. Writing is too much of a catharsis for me and I am always surprised anyone ever wants to read me.
That said, I could never write music like you do. That is a true talent. I play numerous instruments, but could NEVER write music. And I could never write lyrics... I think it's too much like fiction.

Evocative...
...I was just answering an email, when I heard the horn of a CSX diesel ring out... I froze... the crossing is off in the distance... and, when they blow at that particular crossing, it creates a ghostly sound here... it is only about a mile from my house, and the distance subdues the horn.. chases it down, and wraps it into a ball of vibrating memory... but still, I just heard it.. and, it blasted me...
... the thing is, 5 minutes ago, the geese flew over, and their honking had caused me to scurry out to the deck to watch them.. three perfect V formations following each other... a beautiful sight.. and, a call in the air that I always enjoy..
... see, in these evenings.. in this quiet time of mine... outside noises sometimes manage to penetrate the house.... later on this evening, when the television is playing, we will be oblivious to everything outside... but, just now, the tables are turned.... and, I heard the train...
... tis a strange thing... as if it were yesterday... I can remember my Father coming home from work... covered in dirt and sweat.... popping me up onto his knee, and telling me his tales... usually, they involved his workday... or, as he was away quite a bit, his work-week.... rebuilding a switch.. running alongside a rock train for 15 miles... fixing an Engine burn.. re-pointing a frog... I was enthralled... 100%.... Hell, even the place-names where he worked stoked my imagination....
.. Harriman... John Sevier Yard.... Coster Shop... Kingston... Jellico... Royal Blue... Ooltewah... Strawberry Plains... Chattanooga... Clinton..... to me, they still sound as exotic as some of the places I've traveled... and, yet... they are less than 100 miles from my new home...
... those places, my Father described to me... every day... for years...
... now, when I hear the train?.. I find myself somehow afraid of running out to greet the noise of it... I am afraid..... and, I am ashamed of myself...
Read the Bullshit »
Ain't no reason to be afraid. Ery body has things that remind them of both good and bad times in the past. Take heart in the fact that you can still appreciate both and haven't been bludgeoned(velociman word) to the point where you can't hear the geese(cover you head when you go on the deck to look up) and can't hear the train.
Some folks, go numb, to all that would cause them to remember, or to aspire. If you're gonna fear something, fear the welcome of no feeling..., fear, aspiration, or otherwise.
When you feel that, you've basically resigned to the fact that you're stuck, don't care, and things just plain suck in general.
Wanna feel really good. Take a kid fishing. Show 'em how to play ball. Not Rugby, you don't wanna get them scared of gettin'g their ass kicked right out of the gate. Not everybody popped out of the womb as a Marine(God Bless 'em all... Marines and Kids).
Appreciate and cherish memories. After a while, as life would have it, they're all you have. In America, we have so much to be thankful for. You're part of the reason why it is so.
Now, duck when a goose turd is coming your way. Get a great big shit eatin' grin when you evade one of those cigar sized bombs, and ... pass that story on to whoever you find deserving of it.
PS.
If you want to borrow a Redneck Kid for a little while, let me know. I've got one that knows everything. If you don't believe it all you've gotta do is ask him. He's never been out of the country(other then North Carolina and Missourri) so Tennessee would probably sound like a Navy tour. You know, see the world and all. Plus, he'd cut your grass.... if he like ya. He'd wanna shoot the geese and hop the train. Youngin's are weird that way. Are you gettin' old Eric? I am. I'm just about ready to surpass dirt, but not as old as Acidman. Oh, one more thing, he's got this likin' for Golf. Do you Golf? You know, the whole Ireland/Scotland thing you've got goin' on. But heads up, he don't like lamb guts. He likes McDonalds. What you say, hey, at least its a Mc somethin. I'd figure you might have swung a club in your day... golf club I mean.
No, I ain't sendin' my boy off nowhere(Chill Key). He's fun. He's an asshole, but he come by it honestly....His Mom's side of the family.(Hoping like hell she don't read this).
