It Was Long and Chrome Standin’ In the Lot, Fire Engine Red that Thing Was Hot July 29, 2007 1 Comment

That time of year again for the Moulton Jamboree, the town where the fire volunteer fire department seems to be bigger than the city itself. Small town festivals, dancing, light beer, parades, BBQ cook-offs, softball….is it just me, or is it a bit surreal? I’m not doggin’ it, just very unique I’d say. Mummy and [...]

Life Is Both a Major and a Minor Key, Just Open Up the Chord July 26, 2007 No Comments

Travis, La Zona Rosa, Austin Texas, damn I totally forgot how great these guys are, I guess you could called it being sophisticated and down to earth at the same time. It was in 1997 the same place where I talked to Fran, when he opened for Ben Folds, he asked me what I thought [...]

Watching All the Reds, and Oranges Slip Away, Letting Go of Yet Another Dirty Day No Comments

After miles of tirelessly driving through the streets of San Antonio, I don’t get the ‘warm and fuzzies’ in any part of town. Steve is really my only ‘home boy’ in the city, so what’s a boy to do? Opinions on where to live in San Antonio from the locals say, well live here but [...]

Beautiful McMansions on a Hill, That Overlook a Highway July 24, 2007 No Comments

My new radio station, it’s really not that bad. I was going to sit down and really think about what it means to have a support staff that follows you mentally, thanks for all the nice emails, asking what’s up, giving updates, etc, etc. Short response, I like the job a lot, I hate San [...]

If You are Falling, I’ll Put Out My Hands, If you Feel Bitter, I Will Understand July 21, 2007 No Comments

It seems as if the adult version of Santa Clawz has came to visit. He brought me happiness, happiness in a variety of ways, in a variety of things, putting focus on great things, and blurring the focus on the turbulent stuff. I see how important it is in life to keep ‘re-inventing’ yourself, to [...]

Is It True It’s Always Happy Out Here, And If It Is I’d Like to Stay a While July 20, 2007 No Comments

ITS AND ALL CAPS LIFE FOR ME, DOWN HERE, THE TEXT IS SCREAMING AT ME, EVERYWHERE, ALL THE TIME, HARD TO MAKE IT LOOK ASTHETICALLY CORRECT! All that being said, STEVE AND HIS BETTER HALF CAME OVER TO THE ECONOLODGE for a visit, and we went down to the seedy part of SA to get [...]

He Could Throw that Speed Ball By You, Make You Look Like a Fool July 18, 2007 1 Comment

Home sweet home, at least for the next three nights. If it wasn’t 60ish bucks a night, I could totally live at this Econolodge for the next however long. Chances are though, I’m hoping to live in this building, The Exchange Building, downtown SA, I timed it today, and it take about 5 minutes to [...]

We’re Battleships, Driftin’ in Our Wee River July 17, 2007 No Comments

For those keepin’ count, here’s my opinions on what has been good and bad in mom’s chemotherapy treatments. For the record, Mom’s first treatment was last Thursday, the weekend left her burping and lot and bloating, and sick enough to miss Collin’s birthday party on Sunday. The Good – Hospital staff everywhere (Yoakum, Cuero, and [...]

Go Along With the Plan, Your Head will Still be There Where You Put It July 15, 2007 No Comments

Thanks for all the positive vibes in regards to my transition in life. The internet and music make transitions in life seem seemless. The Veils put it into perspective best. ‘And the sound of that music travelledto me from that orphan skyand pulled it all in my vault’ What next? Liquidity for a while, then [...]
