Tomorrow

I can't believe that the election is tomorrow. Finally. I've been involved with the Obama campaign as a volunteer for a little over a year. I'm glad I spent my time doing something worthwhile, but I am ready for this whole circus to be over.

Tomorrow that happens. That is, if we don't see another Ohio/Florida shit.

Who are you going to vote for? I'm not going to try to argue either way. I'm just going to tell you: Vote for Barack Obama.

I'm begging you. Please don't let John McCain win. This country is nearly unbearable as it is. I can't imagine a regime run by another George Bush with a worse temper. (Thanks Hayden).

So, I've decided to post a few pictures, some good videos, and of course music. All in the celebration of a assured victory (fingers crossed) tomorrow.

McCain kind of just forgets what's going on. It's hilarious:




I'm From Kentucky. We Love Coal. McCain Hates It.

Farewell Joaquin

So I just heard the news today that Joaquin Phoenix has officially announced he is retiring from acting. Damn. I really like Joaquin. Apparently, he's pursuing a career in music which I'll keep an eye on with a little enthusiasm.

Luckily, Joaquin is staying fucked up. If you can't tell from these pictures you have to be blind.







Good for you, Joaquin. I know it feels good to get fucked up. Keep doing it. Good luck.

Dear Jessica



Dear Jessica,

I know you have a lot of men groveling at your perfectly shaped body. I know Tony Romo is your boo. But Jessica, Tony Romo ain't got shit on me.



I promise I could treat you better. I don't make as much money. But, you're rich. You don't need to have a rich boyfriend, you need someone you can take care of. You need a man you can lavish and love with all your heart. You want someone who you can spoil. You need a man who has simple tastes and loves well.



Jessica, I'm drinking brandy. Do you like Brandy? I don't like your music. Does Tony tell you he does? He's fucking lying. Do you want a man who lies to you? If he lies about liking your music, maybe he's lying to you about liking you at all. Maybe he hates you. It's just something to think about.



I love you. There, I said it. And, it's true love. It's not that bullshit that is based on commitment, personality, commonalities, and general things that are not unique. It is a love based on my fascination with your entire body. Mmmmmm..




Call me.

Let's Celebrate

Tonight, let's drink.

I'd like to propose a toast!

To celebrating. Simply celebrating. Life can be a shit can and it can be cold. But there are certain things we find in friends, brothers - by blood and memories, intriguing strangers, paintings, music, women, never ending streams, oasis-like ponds, and other hidden treasures. Tonight, we drink to all those things that can at least remind us that it's not all shit.

Here to help us celebrate:




AA Bondy - American Hearts

AA Bondy can rip a mean riff on his guitar and harmonica while belting out lyrics that are ripe with meaning. This is a great song.





Band of Horses - No One's Gonna Love You


Band of Horses came out with this new album last year. Ben Bridwell's vocals are haunting whether he's singing about a funeral or a girl he is confident that no one can love as well as him.




Mazzy Star - Asleep From Day (With the Chemical Brothers)

I love the music that lingers in the background as Mazzy Star recites such colorful lyrics.



The Beatles - Yer Blues

The Beatles - Oh Darlin


The Beatles are always good. Here are a couple of good songs. Oh Darlin is a classic. Yer Blues is a fantastic, little bit harder, blues song. Check them out.



Counting Crows - When I Dream of Michelangelo

I haven't heard anything from Counting Crows in a while. While I don't like everything that Counting Crows does, I do enjoy their slower and less musical my lyrically driven songs. This ones good.

Cheers!

Just Because It's Beautiful


Thanks.

If Not For You

I'm a big Dylan fan. Did you know that?

I also like Derek Webb. Not as much, of course. But, he puts on a great show and is a talented writer.

Well, I just ran across a Dylan cover by Sandra McCracken and Derek Webb





I don't have it uploaded yet, but you can download it here.

Thanks to Star Maker Machine for the link.

Let's Do It

I've got a Jameson on the rocks in my hand.

Cheers.

To our success and our dreams. It's coming.



Thanks to Omaha Hype for this song.

Felice Brothers - Whiskey In My Whiskey
