Random Thoughts, Too Many Links!)

Ohhh na�ve me!

Jo-Jo left his home in Tucson Arizona for some California grass.
-Paul McCartney, Get Back, from the Beatles� album Let It Be.

I was well into my twenties when it suddenly dawned on me that one does not exactly move to California for rolling fields of green�

My buddy Kevin Walsh informs me that it was Paul Simon solo, not Simon & Garfunkel, who did Slip Sliding Away. Did I Err?

I�ve decided that the Phil Spector Christmas Album beats out the Elvis� Christmas Album for Greatest Christmas Album of All Time. Considering recent allegations, it�s oddly appropriate that the back cover of the Phil Spector CD has a Snidely Whiplash type of logo in the bottom right corner.

Had a customer come in today looking for The Singing Dogs version of Jingle Bells. That was the first record I ever heard, period! My Uncle Frank played the 45 for us, as well as Be Kind To Your Web-Footed Friends when I was just a wee tyke! The Singing Dogs Jingle Bells can be found on Dr. Demento Presents The Greatest Christmas Novelty CD Of All Time

I like Italics.

Only 9 more shopping Days until LOTR: The Return of the King, and of course only 15 more shopping days until The Return of the King of Kings, if you are religious.

I very reluctantly had to pass on the opportunity to see Bruce Springsteen live Sunday night at the Asbury Park Convention Center the other night. My buddy Tim had a ticket for me for a mere $100.00, and I just could not afford it. Bills, Christmas, Outstanding Debts, Hookers, (Kidding! Kidding, Jeeeeeez!!!) well, to reuse a word from the other night�s blog, Feh!!!

Bruce�s special guests included Southside Johnny, Jon Bon Jovi and Sam Moore. Sam Moore!!! Damn, missed a chance to see a real legend there. Regrets are just piling up the more I hear about this show. Oh well! My sister Judy got the ticket instead, and she had a blast!

I think I�ve figured out how to post pictures on this blog, so I may as well go with a dopey one! Here�s a shot from a recent Civil War reenactment I did.

Too Big, Too Big!!! Does anyone know how to adjust the size? Watta revoltin� development, nobody wants to see me that big!!!

Hmmm, shall I post another classic grooism tomorrow? I think I shall!!!
