The Best Way to Say Nothing.

     In simple. The best way to say nothing is to not say, but in order to not say something you have to think it. The trick is not saying something or saying it, it's knowing when and when not to say something. This isn't pertaining to one word either. This can be applied to a conversation.

For the first time Google has failed the public... I don't need to know how to not to text back.... I have no phone, tomorrows post! Or if I talk too much, that's easy enough to tell for anyone but the person talking and they'll catch on eventually.

What I am getting at, is the part of life based on communication. Good communication is key to anything! BUT! Like most things, it works both ways. Know when not to communicate can be a good thing too.
People a curious by nature. Some more than others. I my self am, but I like to take my time, and be careful about finding something out. I don't want to invade peoples heads, and I don't want them in mine. That is a privilege given to a select few of course. Sometimes I don't need to know things and sometimes other people don't either. That being said, I really have nothing to hide.

Now I'll move on to something else. People rarely mean what they say. That is a bag of rabies cats, that I'm not going into. Just trust me. You your self don't mean what you say most times. People sometimes do this on purpose, but, sometimes they need to talk it out to get the meaning across. This is when patience and listening come in. You just can't hear someone, you have to listen, and even that isn't enough you have to pay attention! Treat anything important like it will make or break you. Most likely it will!

Take this to heart, and don't just apply it to conversations, think about it always. Patience *is* a virtue! Lucky for us virtues can be developed and gained!

Music Playing. Playing Music.

     Today I received two new albums and the thought occurred to me, when do I listen to music? When do people listen to music? I can only speak for my self on this subject. I can't listen to it while surfing the web, as that usually involves reading and/or a youtube video...
    I've never been able to sit still long enough to just sit there and listen to music as this usually makes me want to play music on something or do something else. I don't run, so no iPOD jogs for me.. The most I listen to music is in a car, while drinking, or at an actual concert. The more I think about this the more odd it seems. I appreciate music, I love music, it's a big part of my life... But it seems that I do not listen to it enough!

Maybe I will have to take up running, guess I'll have to buy one of those nice iPOD arm bands (Burn after reading, good movie). This is a nice seg-way into the next order of business. I'm over my sickness via pure determination and will power on my part. I had forgotten I can just turn things off. It is my body after all and I'll be damned it I let it fail me! I've decided to get on the old shape up routine and get my sexy body back in its proper place, as well as my mental health. The later will be harder, considering I'm away from all the good things in my life at the moment, but positive thinking can go a long way.

Now we can move on to item number C. I learned Hey Jude by the Beatles on Wednesday. It's going on the list, may be able to sing it if I practice... hah.

I hope you're not learning English here because it's shit!

Maggie May

The sickness of the year has struck! Lucky for me Cranberry juice has 100% of your daily vitamin C and it clears out your pee track! But it also make me think of Barry White; an alias of his perhaps?

In light of the sickness I was able to get some quality time with the old guitar and THE CHEAT, not to be confused with The Cheat.

It had been a long time since I actually sat down a played for more than ten minutes, let alone learn an actual song. I had been at a friends graduation this weekend and heard Maggie May by Rod Stewart on the radio. Since it had guitar and mandolin I decided to learn it. It has been a success, but I need some more pracctice to get it going good. I think this is the start of my set list. I want to get this set up by the end of the summer and maybe get to do some shows at Uni. I'll add a side bar under the "Music to be Shared".

Moving on I knew I needed to write a post today so began by looking up the usual picture and decided to find Maggie May in the flesh. A good hand full of pictures were not PG friendly but here is the top 3 finalists(in order of appearance):

Loves his Lego, and that is a nice shirt. I doubt this is a Maggie May, most likely her Father or such but it was listed as Maggie May, so here she is. Makes the song sound totally different if you Imagine him being the subject.... Hah













This is more like what Rod was thinking when he wrote the song. Did he write the song? Let us learn.... yes, as well as  Martin Quittenton.

Good Stuff.












And the last one. There was a lot of dogs that came up but I liked this one. Again, this is a game changer but the dog can still fit in the song a the subject. I'd sing about my dog.... Maybe not like Rod Stewart possible did...








There are the top 3, now I want you boogers, I mean readers*, to vote for them in the comments.

That was my day.

The Decent into Madness

It's been a long time since I have posted anything on this rusty radio. And so, here we go.

I've always been fond of madness and the general chaos of life. With this appreciation of such, you see things differently. People say you learn from your own mistakes, but you can learn from theirs as well. That's something to remember.

COMBUSTION

  Now that is taken care of we can get on to the other things. Notice how I said we there, that means I am including the reader and making you feel warm and fuzzy for it. If you were to excluded then this would be a random wall of text with no meaning and you would not BOOBIES read it. No readers means I would be wasting my time. I don't waste time, I eat it! Metaphorically...

Here's what we've got comn' up: (needs more ')

Cabin being built
Summer
Music? I Think so!

cheers
