Americans in Paris

A great book = enlightening, elating & helps cast off the veil on human potential that's more than just newsworthy but capable of incredible heights which become part of the tapestry of our own history (like Martin Eden by Jack London = you're almost frightened by the raw blinding truth once the veil is cast off). .. Wow, a good thing. Good things. The book is called The Greater Journey: Americans in Paris

Dear Greg, it's time for the new everyday media's roses for an anchor segment.

Karin Chetry received a dozen roses from a Mr. John French and the new everyday media (+ his strawhat$$$.com) once @ FNC + once @ CNN for a total of two times and two dozen --- FNC's Megyn Kelly has also received a dozen as well.

Out of Kimberly and Dana which one do you think I should have roses delivered to @ FNC's offices c/o The Five? If it's Kimberly place your right hand on your chin w/ you index finger casually pointing @ Kimberly while simultaneously your right leg is crossed over your left knee and the big toe of your right foot is pointing to Kimberly as well --- and if it's Dana then place your left hand over your chin and use pointer finger to nonchalantly point @ Dana while simultaneously your left leg is crossed over the right knee and your left foot is in a pilates point to Dana.

And, yes, still working on e-book New Media Madness: an everyday art and looking at @ St. Valentine's Day launch (or, around there = it's a real masterpiece and thanks for your editorial guidance like you did @ E.T.).

I knew San Francisco would upset the Saints (I called that to my wife). .. And No surpises that Brady & the boys picked apart Timbo and the Broncos.

The Big Surprise?!?! I'm totally digging what Keyshawn Johnson is wearing on Sunday NFL Countdown for the 15th of January 2012.

The suit is a total classic and something you can wear to the Duquesne Club for a World Affairs Council luncheon or to a gala for...

However, here's where Keyshawn Johnson "pops" and takes everyday tradition to the next level of savvy & smart = that shirt & tie combo w/ the classic suit is "key" for setting ones-self apart from the herd and says, "I am not a robot who just falls in-line and just gives up all their rights in exchange for services and a promise to be taken care of. .. I am a trailblazer. a good man & leader". ..

Please don't dominate the rap, jack, if youve got nothing new to say.
If you please, dont back up the track this trains got to run today.
I spent a little time on the mountain, I spent a little time on the hill
I heard someone say better run away, others say better stand still.

Now I dont know, but I been told its hard to run with the weight of gold,
Other hand I have heard it said, its just as hard with the weight of lead.

Who can deny, who can deny, its not just a change in style?
One step down and another begun and I wonder how many miles.
I spent a little time on the mountain, I spent a little time on the hill
Things went down we dont understand, but I think in time we will.
Now, I dont know but I was told in the heat of the sun a man died of cold.
Keep on coming or stand and wait, with the sun so dark and the hour so late.
You cant overlook the lack, jack, of any other highway to ride.
Its got no signs or dividing lines and very few rule to guide.

I saw things getting out of hand, I guess they always will.
Now I dont know but I been told
If the horse dont pull you got to carry the load.
I dont know whose backs that strong, maybe find out before too long.

One way or another, one way or another,
One way or another, this darkness got to give.

We'll find us a peace job equal and free
Dump smathers-dupont in a salty sea

Science Shows Global Consciousness Peaked Hrs. Before Plane(s) Hit on 9/11: (explains my stirring premonition, conclusion, prayers)

2011-12-24T09:08:00.001-05:00

This is not surprising for me as I can easily entertain that "time" is not the pounding beat behind it all in the universe. In fact, sometimes I can easily see that time was an invention of man to march to man's decree(s) and for fashionable, sporting men & women to purchase a piece like a Catier and state to everybody "yes, I got the time, you see."

Laird Hamilton once explained to Eddie Vedder that he can successfully surf the big wave with help of a song that he's "been into" at that time of his life in which he listens to over and over and over again = and when he's conquering the big wave (or "riding it") he pulls-up that song that he's played over and over again over his stereo and within his mind and he uses this to "slow down" time so that he then "has time to do his thing."

Sure, it may be easier for one to understand the NeuroScientists and Theoretical Physicists than the stoned language of surfer-boy, Laird Hamilton, who dropped out of high school and wears flip-flops like all-the-time. .. So, let's not change course but rather depictions. .. (Prediction, prediction = what's your depiction?). ..

New research is discovering that thoughts can fly across space and that we all may be part of a global consciousness. Scientifically, a sixth ...

This gentleman below and his random number generator discovered that human consciousness (people sitting next to the machine and paying attention to its function) has an effect on the numbers being randomly generated. He began a network of colleagues around the world with these machines running every second of everyday and reporting back to a main server in his lab where he analyzes the data and levels of global consciousness around the globe.

9/11 was one event that had the highest level of global consciousness (awareness and thoughts).

However, what is really interesting is that this peak in global consciousness began well before (4:30am)that first plane hit lower Manhattan in an act of terror by bad, violent, evil men (fundalmentalists).

This helps explain why after midnite I was stirred out of my bed (out of sleep) and was compelled to wrap a blanket about my shoulders and torso and stand out on the front porch = perched, looking at the moon. I actually didn't find this act peculiar but rather the moon in front of me and the energy I was feeling all around. I came to the conclusion that no matter what evil men think and do to try and extinguish good in humankind by violent measures and decrees that light will always prevail. Light and life will go on.

Twitter Accounts Suspended & Deleted and The LA Times Sunday Conversation = Another Week of New Media Madness: "an everyday art" Right Here. ..

2011-11-30T08:39:00.006-05:00

Maybe the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders are truly a team and do not like to have one of its cheerleaders gaining more attention than the others? Whatever the case the end result is that Dallas Cowboys cheerleader Melissa Kellerman found instant internet fame when she was knocked down on the sideline by tight end Jason Witten during the team's game against the Miami Dolphins on Thursday.

When Kellerman’s Twitter account was suspended soon after she tweeted about the incident, reports spread that it was a move by the Dallas Cowboys. However, Cowboys’ director of public relations Rich Dalrymple said Kellerman was not forced by the team to delete her account.

"The Cowboys organization does not get involved in the administering of twitter accounts for players or cheerleaders," Rich Dalrymple told The Hollywood Reporter.
Dalrymple added that "Melissa made her own decisions regarding her account over the weekend." On Monday, Kellerman’s account was reactivated, but her Tweets are now protected.

"The Dallas Cowboys might accidentally tackle cheerleaders on the sidelines, but they would never tackle a DCC's twitter account," she wrote. "Cowboys did not 'force' me to deactivate. I chose to spend the Thanksgiving wknd with my family.......& not my twitter account."

Kellerman, who has been on the team for four years, is from South Carolina. Her profile on the Cowboys website says she is interested in being a child specialist and working in hospitals, an elementary special education teacher or a wedding event planner.

The Great One and The Great Daughter just hanging out. .. Apparently Wayne Gretzky would like his 22 year old daughter to spend more Hollywood Nights with him than posing for provocative pictures to post on line via Twitter.

Paulina Gretzky, the 22-year-old daughter of hockey legend Wayne Gretzky, had dabbled in pop music and acting before finding her true digital media calling: Posting provocative photos on social media. She never became a music sensation, but she became an Internet legend.

Paulina Gretzky's Twitter feed has been deleted, and David Graham of the Toronto Star pieces together a timeline that suggests Wayne Gretzky may have encouraged it?

Maybe the same way that the Dallas Cowboys did not force Melissa Kellerman to shut down her Twitter account but may have encouraged it.

One person of the New Everyday Media you can count on to continue to follow on Twitter, FaceBook, and various blogs around his 3 a.m. TV show Red Eye and his other new TV show he co-hosts at 5 p.m. without being shutdown or suspended is the feature of the L.A. Times Entertainment section this past Sunday.

Provocative?! Just look at this pic of Greg Gutfeld when he was Senior Editor of Men's Health Magazine. Of course, Greg is now a fashionista looking like he's right out of Picadilly Square or some bar Chelsea bar in Manhattan but nevertheless he is inspiration for New Media Madness: an everyday art. If I could have an editor, I'd have Greg over me on many long nights and early mornings.

The conversation with Greg Gutfeld in the L.A. Times does a decent job depicting his provocative genius that defies everything out dated and boring about the NEWS and multi media that some of get sick of being spoonfed like arrogance from a pulpit you're paying lots of money to endure.

Sure, you can change the channel on Greg if you'd rather have someone in a suit sitting in an old comfy anchor chair behind a dazzling desk speaking at you = however ratings show that a lot of us would rather join in on the conversation with Greg Gutfeld and his new everyday media outlets = as Greg's 3 a.m. show Red Eye (which airs at 3 a.m.) makes toast out of any other NEWS show on Prime-Time other than Billy O'Reilly's show.

I surely don't agree with everything Fox News Channel does but I do agree with its decision to give Greg Gutfeld the space & freedom to do his thing. ..

After a fun night as an overnight (snuck-in) guest at Harcum with a couple lovely coed hosts = the next morning in Coma from teh drinks I had the nite before my hockey friend informs me that his dad's car dealership has season tix and why not catch the Phili Vs. Pittsburgh game? It would be fun + he heard Mario was returning to the ice after a recent absence. .. Sure, why not? The way the sun was coming into the Spectrum on this hockey afternoon was just looking so cool, so right, while I washed away my Coma with ice cold beers. .. Seeing Mario on the ice was always magical. .. And, I knew it was there = the energy. .. At one point, my MainLine Phili friend said, "man, you better calm down. ..these fans aren't gonna like it." ... "It's OK, man." I felt just as safe as I did "sneaking" into the space outside the doors of the Penguins locker-room in the Civic Arena as a kid = seeing familiar faces looking over me while I wait for Pat Price, Paul Baxter, Mike Bullard, George Feurgoson, Bobby Simpson --- and just as safe as I felt skating the little rink in Mt.

The Jayhawks peform "Tiny Arrows" on Soundcheck in The Greene Space

2011-11-11T21:57:00.001-05:00

Wandered through the desert
Looking for my way
Under rocks and houses
Snakes burn in the day
Coyote is howling
In the mountains far away

Dusty winters
Leave what's left behind
There are no reasons
To find what I call mine
Fences mean nothing
The sunrise disappears

Sit and watch the river flow
Try and touch the sky

And I don't mind
The sound of the song bird trying
Follow what you can find
Childhood washed away
Where did it go?
Where, where did it go?

The wind is whistling
Coats are buttoned high
Funny people
With nowhere left to hide
The canyon caravan
Rolls along

Sit and watch the river flow
Try and touch the sky

And I don't mind
The sound of the song bird trying
Follow what you can find
Childhood washed away
Where did it go?
Where, where did it go?

Didn't know those tiny arrows
Made of metal, pierced the heart
Didn't know those tiny arrows
Made of metal, pierced the heart
I didn't know those tiny arrows
Made of metal, pierced the heart

Sit and watch the river flow
Try and touch the sky

And I don't mind
The sound of the song bird trying
Follow what you can find
Childhood washed away

Surfer rides 90 foot wave (World Record)

This is about the Rock and Roll lifestyle that got Keith Richards in trouble. The song was recorded while he was out on bail after getting caught with heroin and arrested for drug trafficking in Toronto in 1977. He was found guilty of the lesser charge of heroin possession, and sentenced to probation.Richards sang lead and did the majority of the work on this song. With Keith's drug charges pending, Mick Jagger took a lot of control on the album, but this song was pretty much all Keith.The original title was "Rotten Roll."Richard's vocals were double-tracked to make them stand out.The first bit of the song is about the drug death of Richard's friend Gram Parsons.An engineer named Dave Jordan helped mix this song. He went on to work with groups like The Specials and The Pogues.

Working Class Hero - John Lennon

2011-11-04T22:05:00.001-04:00

As soon as you're born they make you feel small
By giving you no time instead of it all
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

When they've tortured and scared you for twenty hard years
Then they expect you to pick a career
When you can't really function you're so full of fear
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

There's room at the top they are telling you still
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
If you want to be like the folks on the hill
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

If you want to be a hero well just follow me
If you want to be a hero well just follow me

ENGLISH CHEDDAR GRILLED CHEESE WITH SPICY CHUTNEY AND CURRIED TOMATO SAUCE FROM FOOD FOR THOUGHT by Claire Thomas @ http://thekitchykitchen.blogspot.com/

The Grilled Cheese Truck: When "Really Cheesy" is a Great Thing

2011 Mina Riazi

The land of glittery tans and silicon dreams, Los Angeles is no stranger to the many manifestations of cheesy. Meet Dave Danhi, President and Executive Chef of The Grilled Cheese Truck, one of the country's most celebrated food trucks. Here, he talks to Poor Taste about his appetite for seafood, what he loves most about Los Angeles, and the perfect grilled cheese.
What inspired the idea of The Grilled Cheese Truck? "A friend of mine sent me an invite to The Grilled Cheese Invitational back in 2009 and I realized I had never competed in the food competition in all the years that I had been a chef. I went and there was a line over a mile long and over five people wide and that's when I realized that there is such a large grilled cheese food following."

What about the grilled cheese sandwich do you think attracts such a large following? "What I try to bring it back to and one of the reasons for our success is that grilled cheese is the ultimate comfort food and everybody in this country was brought up with a grilled cheese sandwich. We take their childhood food memories and feed their adult palettes. It makes them feel like kids again."

What is your second favorite way to savor cheese? "I'm a purist when it comes to that. I love just a cheese board with cheese at the right temperature and some good, crunchy bread. I love to hit the cheese tastings in Los Angeles."

What makes or breaks a grilled cheese sandwich? "Some people are purists and when I talk to them it's cheddar and bacon, cheese and bread. For me, being the chef, it's a good marriage of flavors and textures– but it's got to be cooked correctly. I feel very strongly that the butter needs to be put onto the bread rather than onto the pan because when you put it on the pan the sandwich feels greasy. I have two people that spend time just buttering the bread."

"We have to re-impress everyone every day. We're the second most followed truck in the country next to Kogi, and never do we assume that there's going to be a line in front of the truck. The goal is to keep impressing people."

As a food innovator in Los Angeles, what do you like about your city? "I like that Los Angeles is so casual and that I don't have to be in a suit and tie in order to eat at a fancy restaurant. One of my biggest reasons as a chef is that the produce here is at the top of the list and the seafood is the best in the country–whether it's the fish markets, the farmer's markets, or the local purveyors."

What about Los Angeles makes it such a promising breeding ground for new food trucks? "One of the reasons is that we're a very spread out city–we're more a horizontal city than a vertical city and I think that has helped with the food trucks, but to be honest with you I think it's more a national thing. This country has never had a large street food culture and I think the country has been dying for a street food culture and due to the economy, people can now go to date-night for 25 dollars."

OK, so 50 of these wild animals have already been shot dead by local officials and now they're calling in the Columbus, OH Zoo to help. ..help shoot the other 30 or so wild animals loose from the Zanesville property w/ tranquilizers so they can preserve their lives and take care of them properly. .. And now Jack Hanna has been called on to help this wild and dangerous (for all involved) situation.
HOWEVER, first Jack Hanna is going to be stopping by Fox and Friends this morn so he can "tell us" what he's "going to do" to help. ..
Being about 100 miles from Zanesville which is nothing for a Grizzly and other wild animals to roam and, for the safety of these innocent animals that were held captive and found themselves free after the murder of their owner, I'd be a lot cooler w/ Jack Hanna getting his expertise to Zanesville pronto and skipping this media opportunity until everything is settled.

Obituary: Ted Windt / Pitt professor, expert on presidential rhetoric

Tuesday, October 14, 2003

Ted Windt, a University of Pittsburgh scholar who dazzled generations of students with his passion for politics and language, died yesterday.
Mr. Windt, 67, was an expert on political rhetoric and the author or editor of numerous books and articles on the subject.

He had such a keen, incisive mind; his opinions were expressed with such clarity but never with harshness," Wecht said. "It was truly a great intellectual pleasure to get together with him. He would dissect issues like a scalpel."

Beyond politics, Mr. Windt was an avid sports fan and a collector of 20th century American literature, with a particular interest in the works of members of the Beat Generation, such as Jack Kerouac.

Since he only gets like 2 minutes on WDVE, I'd like to offer him to do 5 min vlogs for a new media outlet called theneweverydaymedia

I'll pay $50.00 per 5 min vlog w/ an agreement for at least 3. However, the *3 vlogs are to work in these themes:

1. No Shoes Mike Wysocki – Wysocki goes about his everyday without wearing any shoes whatsoever and we get to see how far he gets. ..and how his day goes.

2. Wysocki has a boiler-maker w/ the Cowboy Libertarian http://www.cowboylibertarian.com/ - either we get to see Wysocki actually having a shot & a beer w/ the Cowboy Libertarian or the attempts Wysocki executes to try and set-up a boiler-maker w/ the Cowboy Libertarian w/ Wysocki commentary.

3. The Wysocki Social Experiment – Wysocki befriends and follows around five CMU students. He plays the role o f getting them wasted however just wasted enough to throw off inhibitions but not totally wasted to where they're like crying or violent or freaking out at all – just the state of happy creativity and either talking in a group setting or using social media like facebook to conduct conversation around architecture, physics, music, graphic design

For his "pin heads and patriots" bit Billy O had a clip of Ashton Kutcher @ Teen Choice Awards. ..Billy O determined the new lead of 2.5 Men, Ashton, was a patriot for spouting this message: "hey, man, listen, listen, listen, I don't know how many of you people buy shit on credit cards - but, look, man, if you don't have the hard cold cash to pay it off don't go up with the shit house" . ..

Being herd into colleges and universities and getting a conventional degree or two continued by more spoonfed information flowing along "down by the old mainstream" doesn't make some one an intellectual.

How about being noted for outside reading in your classes? How about challenging professors? How about being a leader with your peer group? How about being well rounded enough to communicate with a variety a of people type?

And how about knowing people play for keeps - it's cut throat.

How about turning off the bickering on TV and throwing on some old vinyl?

You bought me draft beer, in a plastic cup.
I'm feeling thankful for the small things today.

What a little gem. ..

And, yes, there are only 10 Songs on this album 12 Golden Country Greats = what a gem.

Since Elektra paid for Ween to record in Nashville with bonified studio players I wouldn't call it a parody album. .. I mean, Ween doesn't have a genre. .. so just like a NY Times article today in the Sunday edition Arts & Leisure section was making the cutting edge argument that today's pop doesn't really "pop" in terms of doing and, definitely not defining, anything new but it's a mix of the last few recent decades and different genres and styles from those 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's. .. That's why bands like Ween and Rusted Root = who you will find at any current big music festival this summer and seemingly always on tour for the past 20 years (both from Pennsylvania and started around the same time) just keep on keeping on = they were never darlings of any one genre = and, in fact, frustrated the record executives who just wanted their one hit song from an album that clearly was branded as a formula to shift a certain number of units (yawn). .. So, there you have it this Sunday = Pretty Girl by Ween = ( i know this will make you smile and hum along). ..

Subject: Riveting Voice of Local Sports = a "Pomp" Story

I had arranged for a golf foursome at Chartiers Country Club one summer's day.

This golf foursome consisted of the president of Bayer Corporation (the German, Dr. Attila Molnar), Bob Pompeani - riveting voice of local sports, Mike Speranzo - Mr. Small's, Drowning Clowns, Pro-Am Skater, and me -your everyday guy.

Some, including myself, may have thought this was a motley crew. I was a little nervous about how this would go and if I could pull off a good time.

Next thing you know, a couple holes in, Bob Pompeani and Dr. Attila Molnar, the German -president of Bayer Corporation, are talking smack on each other. ..Speranzo wastes no time joining in and Bob and Speranzo form this allegiance against the German and the two of them start chest bumping like they're Pittsburgh Steelers after a great play --- which, eventually, in a show of good sportsmanship, they kindly included Dr. Attila Molnar (the German) in after he would make a good shot.

The four of us had a blast.

And, for Speranzo and me - and, I believe the German too, a very cool highlight was Bob Pompeani lending his riveting voice of local sports to provide commentary on our shots - play by play like.

It was an awesome day I'll never forget.

July 3rd Marks the 40th Anniversary The Doors' Jim Morrison Death

2011-07-03T10:31:00.000-04:00

r.i.p.

July 3rd Marks the 40th Anniversary The Doors' Jim Morrison Death, We Remember Him Now With Five of the Most Surreal Theories Surrounding His Passing

July 3rd marks the 40th anniversary of the Doors' legendary frontman Jim Morrison's death. Fans worldwide will celebrate his life and his massive contribution to music--just imagine how many bands now owe their sound to the Doors--with tribute shows, exhibits, and even ceremonies. The Rock and Roll Emporium in Huntington Beach marks this day with a special memorial event featuring an extensive exhibit of rare artifacts spanning Morrison's entire career as a poet, artist and musician.
"With 2011 being the 40th anniversary of the death of Jim Morrison, we wanted to host a memorial celebration of his music, life and legacy," said Andrew Kirby, managing partner of The Rock and Roll Emporium. "We've gathered artifacts from the very beginning of his career as a film student to hand-written poems including one of the first songs he wrote while living on a rooftop in Venice Beach, to a collection of more than 400 rare historic photographs. This is a great chance to own a piece of history from one of the most notable and iconic bands to come out of Southern California."

You'll find the Original Bail Bond sheet signed by "James Douglas Morrison" from his arrest on suspicion of indecent exposure during a concert at Dinner Key Auditorium in Miami's Coconut Grove section in 1969, a collection of rare photographs by Ron, Raffaelli, Henry Diltz and Joel Brodsky, rare concert posters, gold records, autographed items, original tribute artwork, and original poetry written in Jim Morrison's hand including the lyrics to the song "Moonlight Drive" from The Doors' second album "Strange Days" which was released in October 1967.

So much has been written and speculated upon surrounding Morrison's life and death. He was reportedly found dead in a Paris, France apartment he had sub-leased in 1971. His 'wife', Pamela Courson, was the first to discover the body in the bathroom, where he lay in the bathtub, naked and half-submerged. Following his passing, there was a series of bizarre and convoluted events, probable conspiracies, strange coincidences and surreal news reports stemming from the three-day media blackout after he died. Officially, his death was listed as "heart failure," but before heading to Paris, his doctor reported him to be in excellent health.

Now, on the 40th anniversary of his death, we look at the self-perpetuating mythos that has developed and enveloped the facts with five of the most surreal theories surrounding Morrison's passing.

5. Many believe that Morrison faked his own death and dropped off the grid with a new identity--and apparently Morrison himself had repeatedly planted the seeds which would lead to this sort of speculation. At the Fillmore in San Francisco in 1967, he apparently started suggesting that he should pull a "death stunt" to bring national press attention onto the band. Doors keyboardist Ray Manzarek has said, "If there was one guy that would have been capable of staging his own death -- getting a phony death certificate and paying off some French doctor... And putting a hundred and fifty pound sack of sand into a coffin and splitting to some point on this planet -- Africa, who knows where -- it is Jim Morrison who would have been able to pull it off."

4. Morrison also told writers on more than one occasion that he could see himself "radically changing careers, reappearing as a suited and neck-tied businessman." Elektra Records' founder Jack Holzman's assistant Steve Harris even remembers Jim Morrison asking what might happen if he were to suddenly "die," how might it affect business, record sales, the press, and would people believe it?

3. J. Prochniky's Morrison biography, Break On Through, explores the occult rumors surrounding his death:
"... Another supernatural-based theory is that Morrison's body had been driven to great extremes by the spirit of the shaman he believed had entered his body as a child on that New Mexico highway. When this spirit or a demon its talents to influence the world, it abandoned Jim and left him a physically wasted and mentally exhausted man who felt betrayed with no desire to go on..."

2. Apparently anthropologist Allison Bailey Kennedy went as far as associating Morrison with Orphic mystery cults and their initiatory uses of various spider venoms, which release the "deuende in Gypsy tradition -- the dark soul that burn incandescently like a cicada, immolating itself in fiery passion."

1. The most surreal occult theory surrounding Morrison's death is revealed in No One Hear Gets Out Alive by Sugarman and Hopkins:
"... Other theories abounded in Jim's close circle of friends. One had him killed when someone plucked out his eyes with a knife ("to free his soul", as the story had it). Another had a spurned mistress killing him long distance from New York by Witchcraft..." Plucked out his eyeballs with a knife? How horrifying.

The Rock and Roll Emporium's memorial celebration starts on July 3rd with the unveiling of the "Moonlight Drive" lyrics and continues with a candle lighting at Surf City Nights Tuesday July 5th.

The reason my father was there was because of a big case he won which garnished national attention - McNaughton ruling - big insanity case. .. Ruby's lead Attny Melvin Belli did not follow through w/ my father's suggestion of "patriotic insanity" and is probably why Belli lost. And, yes, until this day when asked my father still maintains that it was pure coincidence that Ruby was there with a gun and got that close to Oswald = no conspiracy.

Robot Theater: Saucy Weiner + Nick Gillepsie of Reason on Weiner

2011-06-11T14:15:00.010-04:00

Nick Gillespie of Reason recently wrote the following big Weiner scandal "points" on 6/10 Red Eye's Andy Levy tees-up and drives home nicely in the clip which I've included below -along w/ the hilarious Robot Theater: Saucy Weiner clip from Red Eye.

A lot of people say that there's lying (not a good thing) and then there's lying about sex (also not a good thing, but a more understandable thing). But then there's lying about cellphone porn and tweetpics by saying that the attacks on you may be the "point of Al Qaeda's sword," or some sort of super-terrorist cyberhack of a sitting member of Congress. Which is what Weiner says above (via CNS News). That's such an awful lie on every possible level that I think it should really remove any doubt about his fitness for office. It's one thing to do stupid things and cover them up with misstatements and obfuscations. That's wrong but understandable, at least within certain limits and when it doesn't directly impact his job. But to play the Al Qaeda card in an attempt to throw folks off the scent of an embarrassing (not even illegal!) misstep is really something else. For god's sake, it would be like, I don't know, the president of the United States bombing two Third World countries just to misdirect people's attention from grand jury testimony. Or something.

http://itsjustwordplay.blogspot.com

The official unofficial Red Eye intros blog.

I always find Greg Gutfeld's Red Eye intros so witty, clever, funny and on so many levels. But, when I first started watching, yes, it was kinda shocking = and then I was like, "how brilliant" ... he's not doing anything wrong and yet flirting with being inappropriate for not just TV, however, yet, today's hypersensitive political correct culture - with a lot of uptight people and people with thirst - looking for someone to crucify with public humiliation. .. (in promoting her new book Attny Lisa Bloom & professional TV legal analyst has suggested that because we consume so much tabloid media we become obsessed with this unreal standard reality of celebrity and perfectness that we then have self loathing to the point where we crave public humiliation of others --- like lambs led to slaughter for sacrificial appeasement). ... granted some of these blokes legitimately deserve it because they are narcissistic sociopathic "tools" --- but just because you have it good doesn't mean people should wish for your demise - even some wishing intent of seeing wrong for you - just so they can feel better about themselves. ...like satisfaction from a teen girl bullying fight.

The irony here with Gutfeld, Red Eye and the "wordplay" with brilliantly smoking RED HOT strong women on his show is with these real everyday events involving Congressmen Weiner, John Edwards and the Governator, Bret Favre, Tiger Woods --- and how these figures are using new media for romance (both to get it and hide it) and it oft bites them --- And, then there's Greg Gutfeld, just putting it all out there w/ these beautiful, strong women and its on Fox News Channel to boot!!! = Greg Gutfeld is a genius and Red Eye is always on the cutting edge = always refreshing.

I commend Greg Gutfeld and RedEye (and my own efforts. ... a couple media type people here & there are familiar with) for being ahead of his time and releavantly ironic with such wit and yet blatant nonchalance. .. it totally refelcts what's really going on within politics, politicians, men of riches & power and new media. ... Greg just gets away with it on international airwaves everyday. ..and in such a refreshing fashion = like a breath of fresh air in some D.C. Frat-house basement.

Welcome to Red Eye, it's like Countdown but without the cleansing mixture of vinegar and water.

INTROS:

Suzanne Sena, if beauty were an ace bandage she'd be all over my joint

Bill Schulz, he's my grotesque sidekick

Greg Proops, if jokes were milk he'd come in a carton. possibly a jug. maybe even a gallon. [fun fact: I meant "'if jokes were milk, he'd come in a carton' or maybe it'd be funnier if it were 'if jokes were milk, he'd come in a jug' or maybe you want to go with 'if jokes were milk, he'd come by the gallon.'" such is the risk in texting intros. then again, this could have been a deliberate choice.]

Jerry Casale, if genius were dentures I'd never take him out of my mouth.

Lis Wiehl, if legal expertise were a broken down car I'd service her on the side of the road.

To the Greg-alogue, it's got a sun roof.

Andy loves to tamper with the brakes on wheelchairs with his good friend Angela Lansbery. (Andy: Abery don't like cripples.)

RE-INTROS:

Suzanne Sena, if beauty were a horse it'd be important to get right back on her if you fell off.

Greg Proops, if jokes were scope I'd gargle with him nightly.

Jerry Casale, if genius were vodka he'd be inside me right now

Lis Wiehl, if legal brilliance were an oath I'd take her in a courtroom.

Kurt Cobain was criticized for doing covers not exactly like the bands he was covering. ..Kurt said, "yeah, they are my interpretations of songs and thus my rendition of that song." .. I like that. ..

I agree w/ you all --- I like when bands do renditions of other tunes. Like Rusted Root covering Evil Ways per the request of Jodie Foster while they were in England w/ Robert Plant and Jimmy Page -as Jodie Foster wanted and did use it for Home for the Holidays. ..and Rusted Root's rendition of You Can't Always Get What You Want featuring members of Hot Tuna is pretty cool too. ..

Gram Parsons does some heart felt renditions of country and pop artists.

And speaking of Keith, yeah, that book of his Life is a really good read.

Xtina looks hot on the Perez Hilton site from this weekend --- on one of my stays at Chateau Marmont I ended-up in the VIP section http://www.mystrawhat.com/MyStrawHatWeb/StrawHatPics/RR/LikeAngelsWatchingOver=ChateauMarmont-07007.jpg of a club called Hyde on the SunsetStrip and I saw and exchanged smiles and eye contact w/ her (I leave people alone for the most part --- rule of thumb) but, yeah, up close and personal Xtina is SMOKING RED HOT. ..and seemed real nice too, you know. ..

So, yesterday, Memorial Day --- I was old school and had WDVE on all day.

How does a disaster like Joplin get cleaned-up? Do people actually sift through or does it get bulldozed and piled-up and burned like a funeral pyre or loaded into dump trucks and dumped into landfills? Is the metal used for scrap? ...separated from phosphorus and nonphosphorus metals? Are like the old aircondition units recycled properly?

I mean, how does a monumental disaster like this get cleaned-up in an efficient, environmentally sound and sustainable manner?

And, how much is the cost, who's paying and who's getting paid and receiving the payments?

Where's the reporting on this?

Thank you.

Dear Dave, Molly and Clayton,

What is your best attribute as a Fox & Friends anchor? (w/out using the answer: "my producer")

What is your best asset as a Fox & Friends anchor? (w/out using the answer: "my producer")

What qualities behind-the-scenes, off air, off camera, add to your success on-the-air and in front of the camera?

What non-formal, non-news-industry experience or practice as a young adult helped prepare you for an anchor on Fox & Friends?

Would you feel as comfortable on-air, on camera on the Fox & Friends set in jeans and a tee shirt and your choice of shoe as in designer, powerhouse, professional clothes (standard for the standard)?

With Don Cannon being a 1 and Keith Oberman being a 10, what number do you best identify with using a 1 - 10 scale?

Could you read off the prompter w/ a couple martini's under your belt? Do you need all of the script ready to roll or with your producer in your ear could you deliver unwritten, unedited BREAKING NEWS and elaborate off the top of your head if your producer has a seizure and you can't cut to break?

Finally, if you were a smoker, would you smoke Marlboro Lights or Natural American Spirits (organic tobacco with no additives or preservatives)? Or, even if not a smoker, would you rather be exposed to second-hand-smoke from Marlboro Lights or Natural American Spirits (organic tobacco with no additives or preservatives)? ...or doesn't it matter?

When Egos GO BAD: Elway

With the NFL lockout in full swing, John Elway must really be bored.

Somehow Elway -- the Denver Broncos vice president and Hall-of-Fame quarterback -- became aware of the Fort Collins, Colo., punk band "Elway," and decided he's just not cool with the group using his surname.

The Broncos legend's lawyer has requested that the band change its name, but stopped short of suing or issuing a cease and desist order.

The band, to its credit, was mostly amused. In a statement released via punknews.org, the band acknowledged the letter and suggested Elway had better things to do in the wake of the Broncos' disastrous 2010 season.

"We have no intention of changing the name again. We love the name, regardless of what connotations are inferred by the listener. Surely, if the Dead Kennedys could become one of punk's most popular bands without incurring litigation, Elway can keep their moniker and continue making so-so music for our dozens of fans to enjoy."

Score a point for Elway -- the band, that is. And now the group has now received more press than it ever would have had Elway minded his own business. There have to be quite a few people perusing the band's MySpace site, rocking out to songs like "Wolf Shirt," which to be honest, isn't a bad little jam.

Anyway, it's better than anything Elway or his team have produced in the last year. Maybe he's jealous.

Subject: rockstar turns SportsFishermen Guide and why he smokes Eddie Van Halen as a human being & guitar player

I know that the big rock bands / the big label acts make the majority of money for the record company which allows for new acts to be signed and also those bands who you have to scratch the surface a bit to be allowed to enjoy because the radio sure as hell won't be playing them ... and nowadays the latter bands with a sustainable following and integrity filled talent (sometimes genius) can say "forget you" label and start their own label and succeed as everyday musicians (even rockstars).

In 1982 I was playing along w/ Van Halen records. I met Jack Glades from Night Ranger in a lobby @ PeachTree Hyatt in Atlanta when i was 12 yrrs of age and he had invited me to sit down to talk w/ his & his girlfriend and even gave me a hug when we finished speaking. ..I was thrown off the football team because I left practice to see the Beastie Boys open up for Madona in 84. ..I think it was 88 when i met the Violent Femmes in like 88 back when I was an avid listener to WXXP Pittsburgh which played songs like Under the Milky Way, Judas Kiss, Black Coffee in Bed, Can't get Here from There, Watching the Detectives, etc.
At university in the early 90's I'd go to the library and listen to archived music ranging from authentic recorded African drumming & chanting to "the blues" played & recorded on front porches of old slave shacks. ..I met the LemonHeads (Evan Dando = playing pool @ a private party in Milwaukee while i attended Marquette U.), etc. ...

So i do know music a bit = and in a geeky obsessive way. I'm enjoying a lot of Gram Parsons now.

The WDVE morning show mostly plays big band artists & acts (almost exclusively) in accordance with the unwritten and well written laws of the music industry and how things are done at big rock & roll stations that are the biggest in their city.

But that's OK. ... I don't have to listen to Van Halen, etc. over and over again (and like it). .. especially when I don't think he/Eddie is a better guitar player and musician compared to Dean Ween (mickey melchiondo) of Ween .. . moreover Ween has been around since like 90 = signed on Elektra as teens and in like 93 already toured Europe and cranking out records --- and, now actually, more meaningfully (and relevant) than Van Halen, they still get around ... and I'd say Dean Ween / Mickey is probably the better human be-ing too ... especially with this venture Guide Service & Archangel Sportsfishing http://www.mickeysfishing.com/ in his native waters of New Hope, PA and NJ. ..

Mickey states he's been obsessed w/ fishing these New Hope & NJ fresh + salt waters for a long time and, keeping your safety first, if you can hang in w/ a positive attitude you can see why his everyday is so special + he lists himself as a pretty good conversationalist = and this i know he is = as sitting w/ him & two others @ Dee's Cafe in a booth on the south side of town 5 or 6 years ago after a show in Pittsburgh (which they always so graciously include as a stop). .. i had an awesome time.

Eddie Van Halen is over-rated. And, what's he doing for his local community and fans in such an enagaging everyday way?

Hi, remember that blue Sunday I stood outside the Fox and Friends window @ 48th and 6th during the show (after Rusted Root at Manhattan's Union Square or whatever that shabby shiek venue is called there)?... My wife called me to tell me she saw me and that you turned around and waved ... But just as I didn't answer that call ... I didn't acknowledge the wave or that someone inside was paying attention to me ... You know, I don't really like cameras and being filmed or shot so that's one of the reasons I am amazed by some of new everyday media who can pull the whole thing out of the box ... At first the new everyday media was just to get my poetry, points of view and philosophy across ... Now, years later I guess I'm surprised that while pickin' my six string acoustic guitar like a blue grass wind whirling through the tips of trees across the mountains and valleys I stop and take a snap because I truly admire your abilities and attributes.

Princess

2011-04-07T08:39:00.004-04:00

Almost everyday she'd hear her parents say,

"stick around, kid, the weather will get better!"

It was comforting but there was a blanket of gray.

She was taunted by chilly receptions and dead eyes.

"You don't like?!" "No." Why?!" "I just don't like her."

"She's never done anything to me. Just don't like her."

Oh, and they let her feel it. If you've ever read that

existential classic "The Trial" by the German Franz Kafka

then you could sympathize with the paranoia and unkind

eyes always upon you, judging, lying, always on trial but

you never know why & are never given the chance to stand.

However, she did stand-up for herself her own special way -

Chin up. Smiling. Polite. Kind. Generous. Complimentary.

Intelligent. The realization of "yeah, they are just jealous."

Being the official Princess now and just not name-called-that

She was quite confident she had taken the high road as the

sun shone brightly through the stained glass and in her mirror.

Take your things – walk out that door

Not gonna force this; take these things

One of us should just walk away

Up and out – walk out the door

Like, we can still be friends

Someone to hold on a cold night

On the long run what really matters?

For now it's too shattered. (and I'm glad)

Oh, you don't love me anymore

And, you're gonna leave just like before

The otherday I awoke and I hear Ali Velshi's booming straight ahead voice and Christine Romans and they're talking about money and everybody is so dire - better listen up if you wanna make it through the apocalypse. ..

A couple hours ago I woke up from a dream where I was @ this posh beach side resort w/ Keith and Mick and at one point my behavior was a little erratic and I was drinking too much even for Mick and Keith (well, esp Mick) and they confronted me and I told them to fuck off and go ahead and go ... That I didn't need them. And when I saw their surprise (genuine) I apologized and we all hugged.

And Keith broke out this original song impromptu on the guitar.

The words were cool - the versus the chorus ... And it was all mapped out for me on the guitar ... Keith was right in front of me playing.

I felt rich. I woke feeling rich that I had a cool song (words and music). In my mind I went over the chords and made some adjustments for my level of playing.

Then a fell asleep and just woke up and I forgot but only parts ...
"Oh, you don't love me anymore

Fuck. Well, at least I have the sound of the chords in my head and those words to work with ... And having a song to sing makes me feel rich.
