SWORN TO SECRECY (DERBY IN VEGAS)
As they say "what happens in Vegas ..."
Sorry friends but I enjoy my health way too much to throw it all away just to give you a "Spicy" read ! I really can't imagine defending myself against the entire Rat City Rollergirls (although I'm sure some men imagine it nightly) I guess I still enjoy the simple things in life like walking and using my hands far too much to lose it all over "loose lips" I will say that a couple of the girls were very well behaved but unfortunately I can't think of a way to give their stories a very "sexy" twist , sorry !
Is it wrong to LOVE VEGAS ?
I recognize excess when I see it , I recognize "sin" when I see it , it's all around the place and yet I love Las Vegas !! In most ways it represents everything I hate about America and yet I think it's absolutely beautiful !! Maybe it's because it's so un-apologetic in it's excess and over the top indulgence . Rarely does it pretend to be anything other than what it is , unlike so much of our society , I guess one of my biggest "beefs" with America is the rampant hypocrisy .
Even after feeding over $150.00 in to a greedy-electronic-beast of brass and bright lights I still managed to walk away without regretting a moment of my miss-spent "ME ME ME" time !
Even my girl Anie managed to feed the belly of the beast some of her hard earned cash , I took comfort in watching someone as practical as her give in to the temptation of "winning it all" , She must have spent over an hour at 'The Munsters' money eating machine , I fell asleep with the theme song ringing in my head .
I do admit that at the end of the last night there was a little voice in my head that said "you over privileged , self indulgent prick !" Millions are suffering and I'm making a sport of throwing money in to the mouth of Satan !! Stupid brain ! .... The inner struggle continues .
So , it's back to reality where I only sin half as much here in Seattle !
I'll be finishing mixes with Fisk this week , the new 'Praying Hands' CD should be out soon .
This weekend Seattle will be hosting one of the best music festivals in the world : Bumbershhoot . Be there if you can , can't wait to see the Mudhoney/Stooges madness !
Morning Rotation :
All roots-gospel (trying to get right with god !)

I guess you'll stay tight-lipped about the nekkie motorcyle races in the desert..?
Hunter would be so dissapointed, but at least you semi-stand your ground against the Horatio Alger-dom down there.
I always say if you can't beat 'em, at least live like they do! I have to go fill up the SUV now, on my way to the golf course.
(Don't worry - I haven't told anyone I'm bringing my shot gun instead of a putter today)
Tah-tah.
Hey Chimp ...
I always welcome your witticism-izums .
I'm embarrassed to admit , I belong to SUV club/nation . In my defense , I do have to haul drums and other musical oddities to and from . Still I wish I'd purchased something a little more earth and cash friendly . Last time I filled the beast it cost me close to $50.00 !!
I try to walk whenever I can .
Reasons to walk :
stimulates thinking , problem solving and sometimes sparks my creativity .
I find that I spend more money in my own neighbourhood (mom & pop establishments whenever possible )
It's good excercise .
I burn less fuel = less cause for global conflict .
I save money = more I can spend on my girl .
The list goes on , everyone should try it .
Sadly , some of you live in 'burbs where you have no sidewalks , some of you live in zones where walking could endanger your life . For you , I have no advice .
My SUV is bigger than yours.
