Best Dressed Death

The Millers

I am reminded of the man at the bar
Who has forgotten who his kids are.
There, swallowing tequila straight
Same call as every night his fate.
To me, he blames it on the whore
Claims she pushed him out the door,
But he can’t provide the reason why.
And, I am certain she would deny
His musings to me this late hour.
They are causing my gut to sour.
But, that is how he believes it to be.
He says he won’t go back, you see
That he’s still in Rye, there living.
Only now, looking in me to find forgiving.
He says he’s certain they will find
She has lost her fucking mind.
And, it is only himself he’s hurting
While hiding behind his convertible curtain,
To save him from his mirrored face.
He won’t look across and find disgrace,
Instead sets his eyes on the last of the bottle.
All of his duplicitous life he’s set to throttle
In a dull thudded break of dawn.
His head heavy under his crown,
He buries each night, repeated.
The music, he says she cheated.
If only the radio had played that night,
There would be nothing, nothing right.

Good Morning everyone

Thanks for the track listing, anon. I really like some of those titles. Sounds like it's gonna be a fun album.

Pic anon thanks for posting. Pretty cool!

Well I've been up since before 5am dealing with a sick dog. Not much fun but he's getting better.

Finally it is light out so I think I'll go greet the sun out on the deck with a cup of coffee.

Have a great day!

WHO DAT?!

Dat Lance Moore! One of the 'heros' of today's Saints vs. The Falcons game.

(We lost by 3. But, who cares?!)

Lance Moore, Drew Brees, Jeremy Shockey, and yes... even the young Mr. Garrett Hartley (who missed the overtime field goal which could have won the game for us)!

Wonderful human beings! Each and every one of them!!!

THAT, my friends, is what it's all about.

NOT pointing fingers!

NOT placing blame on other people.

NOT throwing your friends, brothers and sisters under the bus.

NOT letting other people take all the blame.

NOT needing to always be right.

Being able to admit when YOU are wrong.

Stepping UP and admitting your errors and accepting responsiblity for the things YOU have done. For the errors YOU made.

Loyality. Brotherhood. Sisterhood. Truth.
Responsibilty!


HELL effin YEAH!

Can I have an "AMEN"?

Hi Mayo and everyone else!

Going through some old emails and I've found a couple good jokes. Thought I'd pass them along, sorry for usurping you Ergo!

Four friends, who hadn't seen each other in 30 years, reunited at a party. After several drinks, one of the men had to use the rest room. Those who remained talked about their kids.

The first guy said, "My son is my pride and joy. He started working at a successful company at the bottom of the barrel. He studied Economics and Business Administration and soon began to climb the corporate ladder and now he's the President of the company. He became so rich that he gave his best friend a top of the line Mercedes for his birthday.

"The second guy said, "Darn, that's terrific! My son is also my pride and joy. He started working for a big airline, then went to flight school to become a pilot. Eventually he became a partner in the company, where he owns the majority of its assets. He's so rich that he gave his best friend a brand new jet for his birthday.

"The third man said: "Well, that's terrific! My son studied in the best universities and became an engineer. Then he started his own
construction company and is now a multimillionaire. He also gave away
something very nice and expensive to his best friend for his birthday: A 30,000 square foot mansion.

The three friends congratulated each other just as the fourth returned from the restroom and asked: "What are all the congratulations for?"
One of the three said: "We were talking about the pride we feel for the successes of our sons...What about your son?

"The fourth man replied: "My son is gay and makes a living dancing as a stripper at a nightclub."

The three friends said: "What a shame...what a disappointment."
The fourth man replied: "No, I'm not ashamed. He's my son and I love him. And he hasn't done too bad either. His birthday was
two weeks ago, and he received a beautiful 30,000 square foot mansion, a brand new jet and a top of the line Mercedes from his three boyfriends.

Amyranth said...

A guy is in queue at the Super Market when he notices that the rather dishy blond behind him has just raised her hand and smiled hello to him.

He is rather taken aback that such a looker would be waving to him, and although familiar he can't place where he might know her from, so he says, "Sorry do you know me?"

She replies "I maybe mistaken, but I thought you might be the father of one of my children!"

His mind shoots back to the one and only time he has been unfaithful, "Christ!" he says "are you that stripogram on my stag night that I shagged on the pool table in front of all my buddies whilst your friend whipped me with some wet celery and stuck a cucumber up my arse?"

"No" she replies, "I'm your son's English Teacher."

An exorcist was doing a speaking tour through England. One night, he was speaking to a large crowd, and began asking his traditional questions.

"How many of you believe in ghosts?" he inquired. The whole crowd raised their hands.

"Good. Now, have any of you ever seen a ghost?" About half the hands went down.

"Okay. How many of you have ever heard a ghost speak?" Most of the hands went down here.

"Alright," he continued. "How many of you have actually touched a ghost?" Again, about half the hands went down; only three were left up.

"Now, for the big question. Has anyone actually ever made love to a ghost?" Two of the hands went down; the only one left up belonged to a little old man in the very back row.

"Sir! I'm amazed! I've asked that question hundreds of times, and no one has ever answered yes! You've really made love to a ghost?!"

The old man looked confused. "Ghost? I thought you said 'goat'."

haha great jokes anon and Amy!

As long as it's not zombie sheep, frogs, squirrels, bunnies and lizards...that would be scary...well....

Are ya still dancin’ Miss T? Are ya? Cos I am. I’m doin the Riverdance!
didli-didli- di- di- di didli-didli- di- di- di

Oh I’d love, love, love to be a part of the Riverdance show. I cannot tell you how many times I’ve watched it. I sometimes put on a pair of black tights and my crocs (don’t have the Irish dance shoes see) and dance away with the dvd. I know I look a proper berk, but I don’t care. I love it!

I’ve listened to MCR’s song again, and I’m still not feelin’ it you know, shame really. Did you like it immediately Ergo/Wendy? Am I the only one here who isn’t keen on it?

Thanks for posting the full track listing 10:19. I’m trying to work out if I can do the Riverdance to any of their other songs. Bloody hell can you imagine me going to one of MCR’s shows and doing the Riverdance. I’d be eaten alive by some of their fans! Maybe Gerard would drag me on stage and we’d dance a little jig. Methinks he’d be rather good at it:)


Hope everyone’s well.

ergoproxy said...

Hi welshie! I'm really great thanks!
good to see you dance dance dancin' about!

I did like it first listen, but I wouldn't worry of you didn't.
Music is a very personal thing and it's different for everyone. Trying to make yourself feel one way or another never works.
There will no doubt be a song on the album I don't think much of, that may change with time, or they could stay that way.
I'd say on every album I own there'd be at least one song that I'd happily skip if the mood takes me, even on some a song I skip every time.
Others that don't grab me first listen might suddenly bloom somehow months down the track to become favourites, or vice versa.
Then there are those that I love from day dot and have ever since.
That is the beauty of music, there is so much variety, are so many genres and so many nuances within those genres that everyone can find something that speaks to them on that level only music can reach.

Have a great day!

Good Morning All

Wendy sorry your team lost but they played with heart and soul. They’ll win next time! The Chiefs won yesterday! Been a very long time since we’ve won our first 3 games.

Goodnight anon that is a beautiful photo. Now I can’t wait for the leaves to start changing.

Amy good to see you and I loved the jokes. Nice to have a laugh first thing in the morning. Hope to talk to you soon.

Welshie I wasn’t sure about the song when I had only heard a bit of it but hearing the whole thing I have to say I really like it. It’s fun! Can’t wait to hear all the other songs. Maybe you’ll like some of those better.

Ergo it sounds like you had a fun day in town. Did you get any cool items? Yesterday I went to several places and found some great books (imagine that) LOL. Oh and on Saturday I went to a few garage sales and at one I found a Buckcherry autographed tee shirt and a whole box of old comics. The comics are the kind I grew up reading..House of Mystery. Love those!

Well I suppose it’s time to start my day. Okay maybe after another cup of coffee. Hope everyone has a great day. Take care.

Detailed track by track review





My Chemical Romance, 'Danger Days...' - First Listen


By Dan Martin
Posted on 27/09/10 at 12:10:28 pm


‘Danger Days: The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys’ changes the game in exactly the same way ‘The Black Parade’ did, while managing to be completely different from it in every single way.
. . .

This is the best rock record of the year by such a margin that you actually feel rather embarrassed for everybody else. This isn’t over-excitement. In 2010’s final act, consider rock’n’roll saved.

‘Look Alive, Sunshine’
Things kick off all ‘Songs For The Deaf’ as our host of sorts, pirate radio DJ Dr Death Defy welcomes the Killjoys with a great big clarion call. It’s the bit from the start of the trailer, basically.

‘Na Na Na’
The single, as you know. A hare-brained garage spectacle of a thing that reinvents MCR as day-glo outlaws at a Motocross rally. Thing is, as thrillingly fresh-faced as it is, it’s actually the most ‘MCR so far’ thing to be found here, which is really saying something. From here on in, all bets are off.

‘Sing’
Starting off synthy, slinky and just a little bit funky, ‘Sing’ then erupts into another call to euphoric call to mass doing-stuff-together as waves of filthy bass cascade around Gerard as he sings, “You’ve got to be what tomorrow needs” as he dodges elephant-stomp drums. This is the likely second single.

‘Planetary (Go!)’
More straight-ahead rock underpinned by a slight Giorgio Moroder thing going on in the background, giving way to scattershot machine-gunny guitars as the album hits its masculine stride.

‘The Only Hope For Me Is You’
The original version we heard of this was a big emotive ballad in the vein of ‘I Don’t Love You’. Here it’s synthed up and theatrical, almost turning into a 4/4 house tune at one point before morphing into sabre-toothed gonzoid, robotic thrash. Amazing.

‘Jet-Star And The Kobra Kid / Traffic Report’
Dr Death Deft is back with a traffic report, and an instruction to “die with your mask on if you have to.”

‘Party Poison’
Live versions of this are all over the internet in its original incarnation as ‘Death Before Disco’. The new version is less Hives-y and more bloodcurdling. “This ain’t a party / get off the dancefloor / you wanna get down / I wanna gang war.”

‘Save Yourself, I’ll Hold Them Back’
A massive FM rock love-letter to fans, taking off from the message left at the end of ‘Famous Last Words’ last time round. Lyrically this is familiar territory to what MCR have always done, imploring, “This ain’t a room full of suicides,” giving way to the band’s renewed sense of determination: “We can live forever if you’ve got the time.”

‘The Scarecrow Blues’
This is the best song. A ludicrously gay lighters-aloft Starship style ANTHEM. Except nothing being that simple, it’s buried beneath swathes of thick, filthy crude oil and feedback such that you can barely even hear the vocal. BRAVE.

‘Anytime You Want’
A great big pop song with an irresistible Hall and Oates sheen and very possibly the most memorable chorus on an album not exactly short of them.

‘Destroyah’
Huge tribal goth guitar groove, repeated over and over again like a heavy metal Stone Roses doing something from The Rocky Horror Show, culminating in Gerard screeching the title over and over and over and over again. Insanely heavy, and therefore brilliant.

‘The Kids From Yesterday’
Can’t remember much about this one was cos was still picking self up off the floor after ‘Destroyah’. It’s a bit slow and windswept.

‘Goodnite Dr Death’
And our compere signs off, followed by something so hilarious and brilliant it would be considered a spoiler if we were to reveal it to you now.

‘Vampire Money’
Classic bastard Stooges garage rock, by way of the Tazmanian Devil from Looney Toons. My Chem goof up, freak out, screech off into the sunset. RESULT.

I'm trying very hard not to overreact to your comment, 8:30PM. After everything 6:34PM said, your reply/comeback is overzealous legal gun ownership? I agree, guns in this country are a huge problem. Guns don't fire themselves. But sincerely, guns, not the only or worst problem we have here. Our part of the world is caving in on itself. It's too terrifying to type it all out. But, I did appreciate your polite reply to, 6:34PM. Even if I found it a bit offbase. It's nice to see discussion in other areas again.

In your opinion why do you think it has all gone so wrong for your country? And what can be done to stop the caving in, to bring reassurance, safety and financial stabilty to the people? :/


And SS is a Skandian Skirl. :)

8:46PM said...

I didn't mean to make you apologize, 8:30PM! I came off rather harsh re-reading my comment. I apologize to you for that. Thank you for not calling me on that, as I deserved.

Honestly, there are so many things going wrong here, I severely pity (and blame) those in charge of having to deal with it all. I have no solid suggestions for solving our issues. Just small ideas, but nothing I believe would save us on a grand scale. I would say, poor management and ignorance (among other things) are the most to blame for the current situation. As it stands right now, the Middle Class is dissolving. Resources are gone. On just the financial end of it, you have people with so much they can't see beyond themselves. And then, people with so little their families are homeless and starving in the streets. There are no jobs. No magical solutional free healthcare. All the free resources for people in need are being cut back. So what we once could count on, is now being taken away. Which does nothing but make it all worse.

In my city alone, just one food and shelter center being closed down, stranded over 400 families. That center used to feed over 2,ooo people a week as well. I'm sick to think of what has become of them, as there was no replacement center opened up after this.

Jobs, food, money, healthcare, morale, our environment. The oil spill has affected so much. And yet, it's no longer spoken of as the worst thing to happen to the planet. I don't blame our current president for this mess, as it was here before he landed the job. But I do hold him accountable for the promises he's not kept, and never should have made in the first place.

This is terribly depressing! Truthfully, I see no quick or long term solution. I believe the only way to really deal with everything going on here, is for everyone to acknowledge it and try to come together to resolve it. But in my state, it's quickly becoming "every man for himself." The people in charge here are making it so. Not just one or a handful of people trying to do right or aim for the good of all, is just not going to cut it. And those that are trying, are starting to give up. We can only hope for things to get better. To not give up. I hope things where you are, are going better than they are here.

And you are right about the guns. Children and stupid people are getting to them much too easily. I can't even say it.

Thank you for the conversation, 8:30. And the concern. I'm sure those of us struggling, that read or chat here, appreciate it. It's just overwhelming sometimes. I apologize again for lashing out at you. It's the situation, not the intention. Have a good night, 8:30PM. To the lovelys also.

Goodness. Talk about overzealous! Sorry, Blogger doesn't care for me very much. Didn't mean to cram my comment down everyone's throat quite so much. :(

Um, Mayo? If you wouldn't mind cleaning that up when you get a chance? A little embarassing, that. Goodnight to everyone here.

Anonymous said...

8:46, quite clearly Blogger thought your comment was worth tri-peating!

As did I.

Thank you so much for posting your reply. It really opened my eyes too what is going on with the ordinary people.

I entirely agree. Not enough credit is given to the importance of the middle class supporting those less fortunate. Wealth seems to put a distance of social conscience between those that have and those that don't.

The middle class aren't that far removed that they can't help but be aware what is happening to those less fortunate. So they donate what they can. When the middle class are under financial stress, the less fortunate suffer. Which I guess is what happened to your shelter. :(

And those that are trying, are starting to give up

You are keeping that seed of hope alive, 8:30. I'm so sorry that things are so bad where you are. I'll be hoping those that need it have been able to find the help they need, and that the employment prospects pick up again.

I didn't mean to make you apologize, 8:30PM!

No worries. Given what I know now I can see why it bugged you. And you were very polite about it. :)

So don't you apologise either!

Hi anons
So many problems all over the world, if only there were simple solutions.
What we can do is to treat others as we would wish to be treated and to try to be a positive force in the lives of those we come into contact with, at least it's a start and we never know how far the ripples can spread out from it.

:) Well said 12:14. Your comment deserved repeating as well but blogger must be asleep on the job now.

I think 9:59 is someone who has changed their mind about supersizing their order!

I wonder if they still want the fries with that?

As the owner of a very small business I totally understand what is happening. I have more people waiting to sell books (they need the money) then those who want to buy). I want to help them but at the same time I have to make a profit or I can't stay in business and I need stay in business for my family.

I've never seen that cover before. The other publishing house runs with a different title and cover image. Like what happened with the Harry Potter Series. Recommended age group 10-15 years old, and for those still young at heart with a sense of adventure and friendship. Ruins of Gorlan was very good. Erak's Ransom was excellent. =)

Good Morning

Welshie hope you are feeling better. I know how horrible a panic attack can be. The first one I had happened without warning for me and I truly thought I was dying. I just couldn't grasp what was happening to me. The only good thing that came out of it was once it was over I understood what had happened so I knew the next time what it was and that I could get through it. Take care and please let us know how you are doing.

Ergo hope you are doing well. It seems we never get to chat anymore and I miss you.

Welshie said...

I've been without a landline telephone and internet connection since Wednesday afternoon. Bloody nuisance! Had to call the dreaded call centre. We have very limited mobile phone signal in the village so I had to pace up and down the cemetery path waving my mobile phone above my head to get a signal. The automated service told me to report the fault online!! Online? I don’t have an internet connection, that’s why I’m bloody phoning you! Bloody hell! Tried again. All I wanted was to speak to an operator not a machine, thought I’d get a bit of sympathy see. Didn’t work. She told me it would take a week to correct the fault. A week? A WHOLE WEEK? I got so agitated that I veered off the pathway and lost my phone signal. Phoned them again, pressed 1, pressed the # key, pressed 3, someone answered. Charles I think his name was. It started to rain so I ran to shelter under a tree and lost my phone signal, again. I headbutted the tree.

Anyway, I’m back!!!

I hope you are feeling better now Welshie. Panic attacks are awful. I'm lucky not to have had many in life but the few I've had have been horrible. You look after yourself sweetie.

As for your phone story, it always happens to you doesn't it? Ever wondered if you are jinxed sweetie.


I'm really bummed. I bought Kerrang on Weds and a teeny piece said "just annouced" MCR at Hammersmith Apollo. I waited two days for my wages to go in the bank then came online to look for tix that have all sold out. I'm not paying the silly ebay prices.

And on that note, I'm off to brood.

There is so little you can do right now other than offer emotional support to your friend. He/she must be struggling right now. Just be ready when your friend needs a hug, available to listen when they need to speak, or just to be there if they can not find anything to say at all.

Hugs to you both.

Mayo

Just wanted to tell you goodnight. Okay that’s not really why I’m here. Truth of the matter is I really don’t know why. See there I was all snuggled down under the blankets (it’s wonderfully chilly here at night) when I found I couldn’t sleep. Suddenly I thought I want to tell Mayo goodnight. Then I spent a good twenty minutes trying to convince myself that I should just stay nice and toasty because I really didn’t have a thing to say anyway. When that didn’t work I told myself that if I got up and went into the study I’d wake up Jake. (The dog in case you don’t remember). See he’s been sick and so he is in the house. But the truth is a bomb could go off and Jake would sleep right through it. So that thought really didn’t work. Okay long story short here I am. And now I know why. (Yep light bulb just went off over my head). See I realize now that for the past three or four months I’ve not said goodnight because to do so would mean I’d reflect on the day and to be honest I’ve had a lot of days I haven’t wanted to reflect on. Lots of shit has been bogging me down and I’ve gotten into the habit of simply getting through the day then turning off my brain. Now sometimes that’s not a bad thing. I mean when there is shit going on in your life that you have no control over you can feel pretty overwhelmed. Don’t worry I’m totally not gonna go into detail. I mean really do you care anout shit like my daughter that absolutely HAD to go to KU or the world as we know it might end went one week then decided she’s gonna transfer to another college? And the reason? Yeah not going there. (Just rolled my eyes I do that a lot now) But see I can’t control what she does, she’s 18 now and so I just have to sit back and let her live her life. Of course I can try to give her my opinion but you can probably guess that really doesn’t mean much. And damn it I just went into the detail zone where I wasn’t gonna go. Okay, moving on. What I have figured out is this…I’ve been looking at each day as something I had to get through, looking for a better tomorrow. The looking for a better tomorrow part isn’t bad but the just getting through the day part is what is wrong. It’s almost like wishing part of your life away. I don’t want to do that. So I realize now that what I need to do each night is think back on each day and find a part of it that was good, a part that I can make a good memory. So why not start now? Okay today – (I’m thinking) Got it. I spent the day with mom and she didn’t want to buy cereal. Yep that’s it. It was wonderful spending time with mom and we didn’t have to log in hours in the cereal aisle. So I’ll remember that. (Oh just thought of another but this is getting way too long and my toes are cold so maybe I’ll tell you that one some other time.)

So now I’m glad I got back up, I’m glad I wrote this weird goodnight and I’m glad I still have a place to rattle when I feel the need.

Mayo, hope you’re doing well and I hope you have a place where you can rattle too. And I hope you too pick one good memory each day to save.

Night

I don't have the proper NATURAL "external HARDware"; but, I'm sure we could figure something out IF you insist Paper! I'm always willing to help out a person in need.

LOL and :P

Hello Mayo, Paper, SS, Elena, Ergo, Amy, Mya!!!, MissT!!!, Welshie, :), everyone and anyone!!!

How are you all? Wonderful, I hope!

The CULT was absoFUCKINlutely PHENOMENAL Saturday Night!!!!

Seriously. PHENONMENAL!!!!

I could not even begin to "Oh My God" enough about them. About the way they sounded!

PERFECTION. Sheer PERFECTION!

(And, all of this "gushing" after sustaining my first concert injury in YEARS ~ a very painful twisted ankle OUCH!!!! ~ and a FATAL camera injury! RIP my wittle Canon Digital Elph. I shall miss you, very much, my wonderful sound and image capturing friend!)

:(


It was all so worth it, though! (Especially since I managed to recover amazing live concert footage of THE CULT) LOL!!!!

I shall start uploading those videos to you tube tonight. They may be finished uploading by Wednesday or Thursday (depending on youtube errors and how many times I have to restart the uploads).

Boy, I hope some of you appreciate all this live music getting work I do for you!

Haha!!!

Mya: LSU!!! LSU!!!! LSU!!!! And, The Saints WON too!!!!! Barely, but, they did it!!!

Can I have a WHO DAT and an "Amen, Sista!"?!

;)

Ergo: LSU would be Louisiana State University. TN would be Tennessee.

Great picture of the birdie and the outback!

I would show you all just how GORGEOUS the weather has been, here, lately; but, due to that fatal injury Saturday Night my poor wittle camera just can not FOCUS!

:( again

Elena: What a beautiful tree!!! I love trees!

How's Jake doing? Sandy Ann and I have been very worried about him. Please give a big hug and kiss from the both of us and tell him to PLEASE get well soon!

:) ~ I'm sorry to see that you smile has turned into a frown. I hope it all gets better soon!!!

Welshie: I'm sorry to hear about your panic attack. I had a friend who used to get very mild ones and I always felt so helpless in trying to help her.

Hopefully, that was your first and last one.

To the anon whose friend's dad had a stroke: I hope it was a mild stroke and I hope your friend's dad is well on his way to recovery.

Hmmm... I think that is all for now. I'm gonna go get those youtube uploads started and then go take a nice, hot, fragrant, bubble bath (to soak my poor injured ankle and the rest of me).

Wherever you are, whatever you're doing...
ENJOY it, everyone!!!

Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~

He was gracious enough to help Ross help me hobble up and down Bourbon Street (and up and down the stair in The Dungeon) all night (after the show).

So, may I say, I LOVE CANADA!!!! Though, I'm not SURE I love Canada as much as HE seemed to LOVE NOLA!

:P

I do believe that man was having the time of his life! And, I was very HAPPY to help show him around a little. He was absolutely enamored of the skulls on the back wall (upstairs) in The Dungeon!

I did warn him about sticking his fingers in the eye sockets and the mouths though. I mean, you just never know what you'll find in there!

Well, I have soaked (and I now smell of fresh strawberries and cream ~ WHIPPED cream, my personal preferrance) and my little ankle is feeling much better!

I'm sure it will be back to full functionality by VOODOO FEST (October 29th, 30th and 31st)!

*big smile*

It better be! Because, I have a long weekend of lots of walking/running to do!

Alas, I see I'm still the only one here.

Sorry, Mayo! I hope I didn't kill your blog with my CULT talk.

I mean, who the HELL, in their RIGHT Rock~N~Roll state of mind, doesn't LOVE The Cult???

And, I know it can't be the way I smell.

Thanks for everyone who responded to me, I was having a bad night and didn't know where to go. My friend's Dad's stroke was bad, but he survived. He's getting a bit better physically, but still not there mentally, and will have a few weeks in rehab. I kind of really wish I hadn't been chickenish and put this under my real name the other night. But I will now.

Carrie said...

And yes, I am conflicted. Why did her Dad get a pass at 71, and mine didn't at 64? It is what it is.

ergoproxy said...

Hi carrie, I thought that may have been you.
It's good your friends Dad has the chance for some recovery. Strokes are so hard to predict the outcome of, it'll be a hard road.
As for your conflict, there is no answer. Many deaths are so unfair and tragic, comparing leads to no conclusions. Life is what it is, fragile and unpredictable....and it is up to us to make the best of it for those we are in contact with while we can.

Miss T/Wendy I’m feeling better now thank you. I too know someone who has panic attacks and to be truthful I haven’t given them the support I should have, I’ve not been very sympathetic to be honest. Anyway I’m going to change all that now. I shall be a better person:)

Good Morning

Carrie I’m glad to see your name here. Don’t beat yourself up about feeling the way you do, that’s only human. So many times I wished my dad had gotten a pass too, hug
Please come here any time you need of want to talk.

Wendy I told Jake you and Sandy Ann are thinking about him. Silly dog is feeling better but he still must stay in two more weeks. He really wants to go outside and Diego misses him terribly. He and I have really bonded through this whole thing. He used to be really more Mr E’s dog than mine but now we’re very close. At night I sleep on the sofa in case he needs to go out to potty and he’s taken to sleeping on his back next to the sofa so he can put his paw up and I can hold it. Bet we look pretty strange but I guess he just likes to feel that I’m close by.

Welshie I’m glad to see you and I hope you’re feeling better. And by the way you are very good with words.

PH it was great to see your name too. Hope life is treating you well.

Oh bloody hell Ergo/anon I think God tried to kill me! I know I'm a bit of a pain in the arse but there was no need for that you know. haha!

Welshie said...

Well Ergo you see it all started with my Auntie Doris. She called me a couple of days ago and asked for a favour. She usually cleans the Chapel but she’s quite poorly at the moment and she’s getting on a bit you know. She’s nearly 81. Anyway she asked if I’d mind cleaning the chapel for her. Well as you know I’m not a member of the Chapel anymore, (sore point), but I thought I’d be the better person here and agreed to clean it.
Now I don’t mind admitting I was muttering and complaining as I was spraying my ‘Mr Sheen’. I went up to the pulpit and me being a lazy arse thought I could reach a shelf which had a display of silk flowers on it. I didn’t quite make it and fell backwards and landed on the stone floor. It was quite a drop and I hit a wooden rail on the way down. Bloody hell I thought I’d broken my back for a minute. I wasn’t sure whether to stay still or not. Then thought flippin ‘eck it’s only Wednesday, no one will find me til Sunday!! I can’t lie here til then. I’ve got things to do. So I got up. I was ok. A bit wobbly, but ok.
Now I’m wondering if this was a sign from God that
(a) I wasn’t doing a good job of cleaning
(b) I shouldn’t be there you know. Me not paying up to be a member like.

Or I guess it could be
(c) me being a clumsy idiot.

I haven’t told anyone that I’ve fallen. I’m feeling ok, a bit achy you know, but I don’t want to worry anyone needlessly. I’ll see how I am in the morning.

My Chemical Romance's Danger Days: Born In The USA
October 06 2010 | James Montgomery

"Let me tell you 'bout the sad man/ Shut up and let me see your jazz hands." Gerard Way sings that on "Na Na Na," the first single from My Chemical Romance's Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys, and I mention it now because it's a pretty apt summation of the entire album, a throttling 50-odd minutes of big guitars, even bigger choruses and shiny, 23rd-century synthesizers that's long on jazz hands, fist pumps and all other manner of jubilant gesticulations, yet short on morose emotions ... or, really, any emotions that couldn't adequately be expressed without Dio-worthy devil horns or lighters thrust aloft. And that's sort of the point, isn't it?


And Danger Days is most definitely their most fearless album, proudly — almost defiantly — kissing the past goodbye, ditching the pancake makeup and overwrought histrionics for an album's worth of lean, mean, missile-launcher rock.

Bloody hell sorry about the essay. Why the hell can't I just say "Ergo I fell in the Chapel".

Gawd I really should remember "Less is more". A teacher once said, "Try not to write a whole paragraph when answering a yes/no question!"

There I go again. I'm such a plonker. I'll shut up now.

There's no hope for me is there:)

Danger Days isn't a complex album: It's about the fast and loose joy of rock and roll played very loudly, the spiritual release of shouting along to your favorite song, the swagger of gunslingers and motorcycle gangs and sh---hot guitar solos. There's no room for sadness or social complexities. It is loud, brash, unafraid and unapologetic, a four-on-the-floor, pedal-to-the-metal, bullets-in-the-chamber, bugs-on-the-windshield thrill ride. And, in a lot of ways, it's the most American rock album in recent memory. Which is probably what MCR set out to do when they made it (the second time around).

Good Lord Welshie you can make me smile. Don't get me wrong I'm not smiling because you fell (damn sorry about that) but you can tell a story in such a unique and interesting way! I hope you're feeling better now.

Hey Ergo

And holy diver - Thanks for posting that link. I'm really getting over the top excited for the new album.

Hi Welshie.

Feel better soon.

Bye.

Hi & bye Elena.

Welshie said...

Thanks holy diver. Very interesting read. Not keen on the Na na na na song. Hope some of the other songs will appeal more to me.

(Trying to be brief here. It's not easy you know!)

ergoproxy said...

Ouch welshie! I do hope you don't feel too sore tomorrow. I had a bad fall on some stairs a couple of months ago really banged my leg up, and still have a dent in my shin! I am hoping it'll go away eventually.

Hello elena and anons

and in other fantastic music news
Muse wins best guitar riff of 21st Century for Plug In Baby voted for in Total Guitar Magazine!!

YAY!!!!!
It's one of my all time fave Muse songs, specifically for the guitar
here t'is if anyone doesn't know it

though with so much great guitar in their music it's hard to choose one

Welshie said...

Elena/Ergo/anon, I can actually visualise myself falling you know in slow motion like they do in the movies! I can even see my can of Mr Sheen flying through the air and hitting the stone pillar. The nozzle was knocked off and I could hear it hissing like an angry snake!!
I can laugh about it now, well no I can't actually cos it bloody hurts when I laugh! hahaha. Awww:(


Ergo, Plug in baby is my absolute favourite as well. I have it as my ringtone. I love it!

Flippin heck it's gone 1 am here. I'm going to bed.

If you spend your time trying to figure out what's "best" for you, your choices will be cautious, your decisions will take forever, and your journey will be launched on a sea of expectations. If you are not careful, you will drown in your expectations.

elena said...

Just wanted to pop in once more to say goodnight


It's Mr E's night off and we are getting ready to watch The Lost Boys. Love that movie!

Take care everyone

Night Mayo

If you want to live a life where you never follow your feelings, but where every feeling is filtered through the machinery of your Mind, go right ahead.

Make your decisions based on your Mind's analysis of the situation. But don't look for your joy in such machinations, nor for celebration of who you truly are.

Ergo, I just can't help it you know! It's a gift I tell you, a gift, hahaha:) No, actually it's a blooming curse:(

I hate being stopped in the street to answer a questionnaire. They always insist it'll only take a minute. I always think "That's what you think mate!!!"

Welshie,

I hope your back is feeling better today.If it still hurts see if you can get it checked out. An untreated back injury may cause problems for you when you get older.

Holy Diver,

Local radio here is loving the new song. The DJs mock the title, but still say how much they actually enjoy it.

ergoproxy said...

good morning!

Hope you feel ok today welshie

ergoproxy said...

oh why not?

ergoproxy said...

me!!

YAY!!

9:54, sounds like you're planning my wedding.

Welshie, take better care of yourself or I'm going to have to string together a bunch of vowels in a valiant attempt to make some kind of threat on your sensibility if you don't. *wags finger*

We're not allowed to listen to anything louder than soft rock at work, and unfortunately MCR doesn't qualify as soft rock.

We also have to listen to our soft rock on "soft". Go figure.

No, THANK YOU Cult! Thank YOU, very mucho! That really was a great, great, GREAT SHOW!!!!

Good morning Mayo, Amy, Elena, Ergo, MissT, Mya, Possum, Welshie, Carrie, Sweet Soul Sisters, Lil Devils, Wildflower(s) and various anons!

I hope you are well and good!

For those of us who are not, such as Welshie: I hope you are on the mend and feeling much better today!

Carrie: *hugs* I'm so glad you came back to let us know that anon was you.

You don't have to feel guilty at all. I think many of us have been where you are with the questioning. With asking "why" and wondering.

It's a perfectly natural, human response and does not make you a bad person or a bad friend.

I hope your friend's dad's physical therapy is going well. I know it's a long and difficult road to recovery after a bad stroke.

I'm sure she's grateful that you are there for her.

Amy: *hugs you too* Are those wedding plans still "hair pulling out" inducing?

Hell girl, ELOPE!

;P

Elena: I hope Jake is doing much, much better! That was such a sweet mental picture you painted of the two of you.

Just like most "human children", it seems our fur babies want their moms when they're sick.

Give both him and Diego another big hug and many pats from me, Sandy Ann and Tinker Belle!

Ergo: Congratulations on the new surprise hatchlings!

So, who's ready for HALLOWEEN? I've been enjoying all the wonderful (and not so wonderful) flicks (and old TV series such as Friday The 13th ~ The Series) on Sy~Fy and other select channels!

And, I LOVED last night's episode of CSI. Werewolves vs. Vampires!!! It was bloody good!

Well, I think that is all for now. Enjoy the day, everyone. Enjoy the night even more!

;)

Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~

Good Morning (looks out the window into the darkness) I guess it is morning.

I really hadn’t planned on getting up this early but Diego had other ideas. See since Jake became housebound Diego has learned a neat trick. He stands (yep he’s really good at standing on his hind legs) and knocks at the back door. Well this morning he really wanted Jake to come outside so he just kept knocking until I got up and went to the door. So now Jake fell back asleep but I can’t.

Welshie hope you’re feeling better.

Ergo you must post a pic of the new chicks. I just love baby chicks.

Amy it was good to see you here. Hope your wedding plans are going well.

Wendy I really like the Firewoman video. I passed on to Jake your well wishes. Poor baby really wants to go outside I just wish he understood he can’t for his own good.

Oh and anon who posted the “path” pic – that is so damn cool. Gets me in the mood for Halloween!

Well must make coffee now. I still have plenty of time before the sun comes up. Then it’s out on the deck to greet the new day. It’s gonna be a busy one. Lots of sales today and then I have to take mom to the dentist then work for an employee who’s dad it in the hospital. I really could have used some more sleep but oh well.

Take care everyone.

elena said...

good morning sun

Bad Boy"

Diego has to go on a leash so he doesn't wind up Jake and they take off running. He is not pleased by this.

ergoproxy said...

good morning!!!

Cute pic of Diego, and what a clever dog!! Bet it'd freak you out a bit hearing the knocking though!!
Badger is currently up on the trampoline with BG, she jumped on for the first time. She usually runs underneath it as she jumps, but we have suddenly discovered how to get up.lol.
She is huge now, her back would be level with my waist. She is very exuberant but such a lovely nature. I take her for a walk each morning.

Will get a chick pic for you soon :]

Hiya wendy, sounds like you're primed for Halloween.
I'll have to get my decorations out.

Hey Welshie.

It's me, Ours Anon. I was just wondering if you had heard Jimmy's new record, The Heart. It's very stripped down to the point where you can see just how powerful an instrument Jimmy's voice is. This record is the most beautiful and inspired thing I've heard in a long, long time.

If you can watch youtube videos, here is a sampling. I love this song. It gives me chills.

Hope life is treating you well. I've missed talking to you.

Take care. :)
