With the Needle and the Damage Done

Alright kids, Mr.funnn blew it......big time. I really wanted to perform to my full capacity. I knew the set had practiced all week, I mean it wasn't like I was fully prepared I just chocked plain and simple. But I have taken away only good thing from the travesty on Friday night.  I know I need to keep the computer closer to me, try to keep the setup compact.  THE MUSIC CANNOT STOP FOR ANY REASON!!! As far as keeping my cool goes...........well I will have to figure that out myself.  I know that I had a lot of funnn, but that's to be expected right?  That was just the first show and I can't wait to get back out there.  Its only a matter of time, and we can only go up from here.  Planet of the Rapes shall rise and maybe be good someday. We will have to wait and see.

3 mile walk





Hey kids guess what?  Mr funnn is happy, not super happy.  The slow drawn out kind of happy; the king that you know won't last but you drink it in anyways.  I started my day by cleaning up the past weeks messes caused by laziness, then I strapped on the cans and went for a long walk.  It was nice a little hot, but the constant passing by of cars, trucks, and buses created a false breeze which helped me to keep going.  My time down here is at it's end, and I don't know if I'll ever make it back.  I hope so, although this trip had more lows than highs.  I will always miss this place.  From my move back to Philo I know that once you leave a place it becomes a let down for every move you make you change and so does the place your leaving. So don't let the nostalgia fool you. Just be sure to enjoy life while your there.

bumping birthday uglys


Hey kids it's been awhile huh?  Well a lot has happened since my last post and I'm sorry, but I have been busy.  On the eve of our presidential election I feel I must endorse a candidate.   I usually don't side with the two major political parties, but I back Barack Obama for the simple reason that he could switch things up.  Things in this country haven't really changed for a long time, because they haven't needed to; we have had a pretty good run for as long as I can remember.  Now things are getting shitty and a fresh vision could be what we need. On the other hand life could get a lot worse, but ya know that's something that I personally would embrace.  I have heard the candidates seen the debates, and think that Obama is pushing a socialist agenda that with this economy could work.  I also think he would strengthen our international ties, and focus on the things that matter most to most people; like health care, employment, and education. Plus he is well read and didn't serve in any of our armed forces.  Not that there is anything wrong with serving but I don't think an other macho asshole hell bent on controlling the world helps the fine folks of the United States of America. And that's all I have to say about that.
Mr Funnn has turned 25 years old, who woulda thunk it?  Anyways I had a very strange birthday, for those who don't know I was borne on Halloween, and I wouldn't have it any other way.  But this particular Halloween was extraordinary, because I was working in Louisiana and I was alone.  I started drinking Markers Mark, and got a good drunk on then preceded to buy some hallucinogens.  Then went to my favorite watering hole in Baton Rouge, The Station which luck would have was holding a costume block party. My only regret is not having a camera.  Although a camera would not have shone what I saw that night.  Try to imagine tripping in a wide open space with a whiskey drink in your hand at all times while being surrounded by about 500 other drunks dressed as everything from Gene Simmons in full KISS drag to about 25 different sexy Sarah Palins.  There were slutty referees and people that came as their facebook pages.  Seeing life sized bumble bees and the Big Lebowski was just what I needed to get me to 25.  The whole night was a success from what I can remember and I would happily do it all over.  Being alone wondering though a world of drunken characters, and really not giving a fuck about myself and just absorbing everything in was about the most calming and refreshing experience that I could have had to bring me to another year.  And has made me excited for what next.
