Do you think?! that, the world's problems could be solved by someone who really doesn't give a crap!? Its 2:30 am and I just woke up (on the sofa mind you) took a couple X's so I might be able to go back to sleep. Seriously, does anyone really give a damn about tomorrow?! Save for the lot whom are presently "down on their luck".
If you want to see the "happy people" come to Niles. They're everywhere! Diggin' thru trashcans, roamin' the streets, chain smokin' like they've never heard the words; emphysema, lung cancer,...they're the "Happy People"! They live in a foster home, get an allowance and pack they're suitcases for a day "about town".
They...scare me. Sometimes I think, (Beach Boys tune here) "Wouldn't it be nice if we...." could just get a check for pretending we were incapable of maintaining our faculties in this modern day world??
Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed there are more of those little electric wheelchair mobiles around recently?! I think I see a growing population of them. Really! They're freakin' everywhere!! My thought on this; (I can already feel the "oh God. here he goes, from Barney) they have feigned a condition which makes it impossible to work; heresuit; a check in the mail,..disability,..or, the same which was preceeded by a revocation of their driver's license and they needed, no, Craved, mobility!
Really! What fool would drive a scooter, moped, or lawnmower in the middle of winter?! One without a license!!
By the way, my last blog said I was going to run 10,..did 12. Running at the Thanksgiving Day Run for the YMCA this month. Come and cheer me on. This will be the 1st time in my life I will actually compete for time. In the past, it's always been for fun, or checkin' out the "Babes" butts while running behind them. "Hey, I'm a Senior! I can do that!" "Harmless, right?!"
Age is a state of mind. For me, it's just another wrinkle.
So, my Dear Readers I leave you with this (and by all means I am not the Dalai Lama, or any bastion of Knowledge, or a Seer) when I turned 55 and I saw my life passing at 55mph before my eyes, it was then I decided, "What the f..., what do I have to lose?! I have always wanted to aspire to becoming a well-known Artist. Past few months I've been dilly-dallying around. However! I've been prepping. It's time. Time to show the World another Artist. It wasn't until recently that a close and dear friend of mine helped me with that relization; I can do Anything and I will. Besides, next week it might 15 miles, then my 30. If I never attempted, I never lived.
If I should die on the side of a road, just say, "well, his socks were clean."
Which reminds me, Dear Readers, do not grieve my passing when that day comes. Instead, give me the Biggest, Damned, Tiki Party ever! Promise me! And drink a shitload of Tequila in my honor. The Pirate will take a portion of my ashes and blast them from his cannon from a sailboat over Lake Michigan (I'd prefer the Caribbean, but we're a struggling lot right now, who knows?! Ol' Johnny Boy just might make his mark before that time and he'll be able to.
Anyway, 'nuff talk about that. Feel the X's kickin' in.
Good night my friends.
By the way, I have a request from all my readers. When Christmas approaches I would like it if (your choice) you would listen to two songs for me. They bring out the side in me that (hard to explain) has always been with me. I might appear as a coldhearted SOB to some. To others I'm a pushover, to those who know me,..I'm a lover of life and all humankind. Those two songs were written by the greatest poet of recent times and tragically taken away from us; John Lennon. Listen to; Imagine and So this Christmas (his christmas carol). If those songs don't make a tear come to yer eye, then you must think gas is a bargain at a $1.96 a gal.
I admit it. I cry everytime I hear the songs. They're painful. Human suffering is Bullshit! There is no need for it to happen.
Oh well, like I said, X's are kickin' in and I'm wandering.
Good night, Dear Readers.
Peace and Love
