Pete Seeger Is Still Goin' Strong


"On the other hand, I've tried to stay in good health. I learned an Arab proverb when I was in Lebanon once. Arabs are proud that the whole world uses Arabic numerals. We don't use Roman numerals, or Chinese numerals. We use Arabic numerals. If you have good health, put down a number one. If you have a family, put down a zero. How lucky you are. If you have land, put down another zero. Family, land - what more could you want? Well, if you've got a good reputation, put down another zero. You got it all. But take away the one, what have you got? Three zeroes. Good story for people to know. I tell it everywhere...." (read article)


That's a 90 year old Pete Seeger talkin'! He's 90 years old! And still making as much sense as the music he makes. And he makes a WHOLE LOTTA MUSIC! And it's true, too...music keeps you young at heart. And that keeps him goin' strong...

And we need to be more like Pete these days.

$300 On New Beatles? A Lemon Is Free...


" The long-overdue sonic remodel of the Beatles catalog rolls out today. Albums are available individually or in a handsome $259.98 box set..."
(article)

HAHAHAHAHAHA! Are they serious? They are?! I mean...heck...I know...it's the Beatles. But why do folks in the middle of an economic recession need to spend 300 dollars on two hundred and six songs? Why not just buy them 10 at time over a few years. It's gonna take you that long to listen to it all! I'll be a monkey's uncle, I guess. Whew wee! 300 smackaroonies, eh?

Why spend that much on somethin' new, when you can get a Lemon for free...

Then Is The News Shinola?


Shotgun-wielding man Tasered after manure dispute

Police said a dispute over manure led to a man firing his shotgun near his neighbors and police later using a Taser to subdue him. The Saginaw News reported the man approached his neighbors in Huron County's Huron Township, about 110 miles north of Detroit, Saturday as they spread lime and manure on their farm. (article from sf gate)

Sometimes you have to hand it to the news for finding stories like this. Because, it is more than obvious that during the middle of the night when we are all asleep, a hand full of adults agree that, yes, the story should be out there for all to see. Print it! Sometimes I love the decisions adults make. Now this one for sure is Every body's Rag!

Kanye West Needs To Be Kind



Hey everybody, how are you fine people doin' today?
THAT good? Well don't get too excited now. It's only Monday. And don't let the Blues get a hold of you too quick now. Ya have to get somethin' good in your mind to get through a day, sometimes. Ask Taylor swift. That 19 year old singer who won an award, only to find her self on stage with Kanye West tellin' her it should a been somebody else. You hear about that? Sounds to me like Kanye West was countin' eggs with out a basket.
And what was he thinkin' when he went to the barber shop? Maybe the barber should write something good to say on his head...
(eyes are a rollin' in my head)

Anyway...
I did find an old classic that maybe Taylor Swift could sing to the man
