Old Fashioned Easter...

 GodAmighty Guy!
 Could you please keep the narrative going!

   OK where was I. Forget illegal Immigration there are far more pressing things to be worried about. Like why are you worrying about anything when life is so short? and so damn precious and so
hard to get a handle on... enough!

  I'll stir things up. That's what I do. That's me just Diplomatic enough to keep every one confused and bemused and then trouble ... as The Republican Party begins to crumble under the relentless pressure of the Lifesignsphoto  blog(?) (..or do I raise the GOP to new heights when I join-up and create a New Lincoln Brigade wiping out all vestiges of Fascism and Corporate Control from within the GOP) in the meantime my own natural constituency.. dreamy new age single women, leave in a huff when I finally let them know that as far as I am concerned South Dakota... well People why is it that I can't stand the notion of Abortion. I am just from another planet.

Love is a strong force for the weak and the brave and not always easy to figure out and not very often very perfect.. We need some of that though big time.

Isn't it hard to give yourself to someone your heart and soul isn't
really really happy with..I mean at home with.. It is for me. Why are you even with this person I wonder? Talking to myself mystery mystery mystery....

Don't hang with a guy.. girls, you wouldn't trust to father your child. Please. Kick me out if you must it's OK.

That's why I am a solitary man I guess. Loner with a .... nevermind. Spring is here with the energetic power of the Universe Just merge baby, come to me with passion and lets leave all notion societal constraints behind and just don't even think about the 'A' word it is not happening those days are gone. Babies are heaven.

  Well ... you do the work you SOB! She says in a huff. A lifetimes work she reminds me. 

  Babies are Heaven!? Idiot..!  .. s
he says.
  Babies are not Heaven they are Babies!
 
   Life ...children. I think is not to be denied. Available shortcuts modern world.. warped and manipulated to make it easy for us.. you and I. I know its a tough world for women and many of you don't want to go back to some old-fashioned type of experience... style of life. Who could blame you? So I am an idiot. I like old-fashioned. On the other hand maybe there are ways to live without 'A' in our lives and still
push forward in a high manner. You all. I know there is.

  THE BEAUTIFUL REALITY I would like to be living in is a world governed by people who in their own lives make the decisions based on their own consciences and without fear of Government intrusion. Nobodies business but my own and let a Respect for all Life enter deeply into all manner of Earthly existence from cradle to grave. Take over this planet already people you who love Life.

Easter heading East along Highway 37 destination Tahoe.
Past Auburn
East on 80
traveling with the clouds getting heavy

  I started up to see my buddy Lil Denny up in Tahoe on Easter Sunday. I was ready for snow and music and video and camera and mountain magnificence but my plan was ill-advised. My '87 Toyota was overheating before I was at 1500 feet plus the fact that it was a blizzard that night up in the mountains and Highway 80 was closed didn't help.. finally coasted back down to Sacramento.. (Denny says Sackatomatoes.. I say Sack-a-tormento) after my nights sleep on Vikki Lee's floor. Not your fault Vikki I am just getting too old for floors.

 Now heading west on Highway 37 heading back home on Monday... Patriots Day... in retreat.

  Gave up on the auto repair Monday morning since I was on the verge of bouncing checks back at my local bank. Made it back to Marin by Monday 2PM finally got a line through to Denny who was busy that morning paying his phone bill.. I ain't going to make it I said Bummer he says. Well maybe later a few weeks from now I say. Later he says. That night in Fairfax Andre says you went up to see Denny in Tahoe? That's funny because he is sitting over in 19 Broadway right now. I say 'I said Denny not Danny' and Andre says 'yeah Denny Lil Denny I just was talking to him in 19 Broadway' and I say 'Bull!' I was on the phone to him 3 hours ago (I exaggerated.. 6 hours ago) Andre says 'How much you want to bet?' I say 'WTHeck!' and I go over to 19 and there is Denny...!!

  Do you think he misses Fairfax? He drove down in his truck
busting it to get down here in time for Open MiC! He played 'Wake Up Sleepy Jean' by the Monkees which prompted me for some reason to request Neil Diamond and he pulled' Solitary Man' out of his hat which I thought was brilliant and he ended up his little set with some obscure Bob Marley 'Souljah' tune that made us all fast friends with the dreadlock trio in the corner on their way to Oregon in an old Bluebird school bus running on Vegetable Oil.
...just some weeds along the way.

  And we all lived happily ever after... yeah..

  Yesterday Wednesday in my living room I asked him to, play it again Den ... Here you have it.

   Here is a piece of one more that has me accompanying Denny, a couple of stumbles there.. my mistakes.. some Sukiyaki.

    Denny's back in Tahoe now. I'll try again someday to get up there.
