Positive Note

I’m not one for gushing platitudes or optimism or hope. It typically leads to disaster.


But I will say that 2014 was weird as fuck and I’m glad it’s over.


It wasn’t a bad year, but it was just a really, really fast, really fucking strange year that led to weekly realizations that made me say things like, “Jesus, this year is fucking weird”.


Most years since college ended in 1999 were pretty uneventful. They all just sort of blended together. 2011 I got married. And then back to blurry. But 2014 was the year that felt like it lasted 4 months and ended with a shrug. The kind of shrug that says, dunno, don’t care, fuck off, not my problem.


So, 2015 will slide into the frame and we’ll see what happens.

Do Re Me, So Far So Good

Do Re Me, So Far So Good:

In spite of what you’ve been told about Elvis 
the good die old and helpless 
In hobbie hats and armchair football scarves 
for the big match with Antartic thistle 
They didn’t catch the half time whistle 
when they wheeled on the pop music stars 
with their pop music guitars 
And they were singing 
1,2,3, happy neighbourhood 
Do re me, so far so good 

Because life, Mrs. Brown 
It’s just one big knees up 
A night on the town, a storm in a teacup 
(More like a teacup in a storm) 
Where are the songs about boozers and buildings 
banning the bomb and abusing the children 
who’ll one day be pop music stars 
with their pop music guitars 
And they’ll be singing 
1,2,3, happy neighbourhood 
Do re me, so far so good

Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine

They call me coffee cuz I grind so fine



They call me coffee I keep you up past 2 am



They call me coffee because I’m really bitter and most people don’t like me without changing some aspect of what I am



They call me coffee because between here and South America, dozens of strangers have their hands all over me.



They call me coffee because I’m in a cup.

Afghanistan After Party Rant

On paper the war is ending, but it isn’t *really* ending. But that’s neither here nor there.


The war is ending there. A war that was started as a knee jerk reaction to a terrible tragedy.


The response was hubris manifested as a ground war in a country where the most capable and technologically advanced military that has ever existed was losing to people who literally dwell in caves.


There is no responsible end to a war, any war. The country was fucked up before and now it’s even more fucked up. There are people who have been born around the world and in both the US and Afghanistan who have been alive as long as the war has been going on and have no inkling of a world without perpetual war.


It’s finally ending. I remember the day it started and that was a very dark, very strange time. But the U.S. response was painfully bungling and disastrously misguided.


There will be criticism of how it ended, why and when. They will point to the current administration and blame them because that country is a wreck of epic proportions. But we can’t forget what got us and the world into this clusterfuck, hubris mixed with a healthy dose of idiocy. All those flags waving in our face blinded us to the fact that a war on an intangible is impossible and un-winnable.


We went in dropping million dollar bombs on people who can stop an entire military convoy for hours on end by firing one bullet. If this war showed us anything it is that the Afghan people are highly adaptable, resourceful, and incredibly intelligent. We were the raiders not the heroes. We were raging a war against people who only saw is as the enemy, not the liberator. We were the bad guy.


It was an unjust war. It was a war that never should have happened just like the war in Iraq. It has been constant war for 13 years in a country that the Soviets couldn’t conquer. The Bush administration was in the wrong. This isn’t about Republican versus Democrat, Left against Right, it is about the plain and simple fact that the Bush administration led us willing astray and played us like a cheap guitar.

What the fuck?



I saw gas at $2.15 the other day, and it made me break out in a cold sweat. This makes me incredibly uncomfortable. Feels like very bad things are coming.



We saw $1.76 today.


The end is nigh.


Supply met the demands of the company rather than actual demand which bursts the bubble every… single… time.


It’s just bad business to crank production this high. It is short sighted and just plain stupid. No one stopped to think what this would do to the WORLD’S economy and no one is thinking of what will happen next. That the worst case scenario is probably real.


The consumer is pleased as punch, but the company is suddenly panicking and instead of having a metered response about what to do next it’s just going to react.


I never thought I’d see gas for less than $2.00 ever again in my lifetime. So what happens now?

There is no sun in St. Louis. Just a smear of depressing anti-color. The color of caked on eyeshadow on the streetwalker of a post-industrial wasteland.

My So-Called Photo of a Photo

I snapped two photos of two photos of The Strangelet while at her parents house but I’m respecting her wishes and not posting them to the Internet.


So…


Imagine two press photos of Claire Danes from My So-Called Life. Same face, same hair. 90’s overall type attire. Distant/puzzled/forlorn/angst-ridden unfocused stare toward something just down and to the right of the camera lens…

Misty Copeland, “an unlikely ballerina,” who went from poverty to making history, as “only the second black woman in the history of the American Ballet Theatre to gain the status of soloist.”



She’s a badass.


I want her body. Ahem… Let me be more clear… I want to be built like her.


I guess I’m going to need to start hitting the gym like I used to but this time while wearing pointe shoes and leaping everywhere.
